Constructor & Destructor Documentation

__construct()

cachestore_session::__construct	(		$name,
		array	$configuration = array()
	)

Constructs the store instance.

Noting that this function is not an initialisation. It is used to prepare the store for use. The store will be initialised when required and will be provided with a cache_definition at that time.

Parameters

string	$name
array	$configuration

Reimplemented from cache_store.

Member Function Documentation

are_requirements_met()

static cachestore_session::are_requirements_met ( )

Returns true if the store requirements are met.

Return values

Implements cache_store_interface.

can_add_instance()

cache_store::instance_deleted()

create_clone()

cache_store::create_clone ( array  $details = array() )

inherited

Creates a clone of this store instance ready to be initialised.

This method is used so that a cache store needs only be constructed once. Future requests for an instance of the store will be given a cloned instance.

If you are writing a cache store that isn't compatible with the clone operation you can override this method to handle any situations you want before cloning.

(

)

Returns true once this instance has been initialised.

Return values

bool

Reimplemented from cache_store.

is_ready()

cache_store::is_ready ( )

inherited

Returns true if this cache store instance is ready to use.

Return values

bool

Reimplemented in cachestore_redis, cachestore_mongodb, cachestore_memcached, and cachestore_file.

is_searchable()

cache_store::is_searchable ( )

inherited

Returns true if the store instance is searchable.

Return values

bool

Returns true if the given mode is supported by this store.

Parameters

int

$mode

One of cache_store::MODE_*

Return values

bool

Return values

boolean

True on success. False otherwise.

Reimplemented from cache_store.

ready_to_be_used_for_testing()

static cache_store::ready_to_be_used_for_testing ( )

staticinherited

Returns true if this cache store instance is both suitable for testing, and ready for testing.

Cache stores that support being used as the default store for unit and acceptance testing should override this function and return true if there requirements have been met.

Return values

bool

Reimplemented in cachestore_redis, cachestore_mongodb, cachestore_memcached, and cachestore_apcu.

reduce_for_maxsize()

cachestore_session::reduce_for_maxsize ( )

protected

Reduces the size of the array if maxsize has been hit.

This function reduces the size of the store reducing it by 10% of its maxsize. It removes the oldest items in the store when doing this. The reason it does this an doesn't use a least recently used system is purely the overhead such a system requires. The current approach is focused on speed, MUC already adds enough overhead to static/session caches and avoiding more is of benefit.

Return values

int

register_store_id()

static& session_data_store::register_store_id (   $id )

staticprotectedinherited

Returns a static store by reference...

REFERENCE SUPER IMPORTANT.

Parameters

string

$id

Return values

array

set() [1/2]

cache_store::set (   $key,   $data  )

abstractinherited

Sets an item in the cache given its key and data value.

Parameters

string	$key	The key to use.
mixed	$data	The data to set.

Return values

bool	True if the operation was a success false otherwise.

Reimplemented in cachestore_redis, cachestore_mongodb, cachestore_memcached, cachestore_file, cachestore_apcu, and cachestore_dummy.

set() [2/2]

cachestore_session::set	(		$key,
			$data,
			$testmaxsize = true
	)

Sets an item in the cache given its key and data value.

Parameters

string	$key	The key to use.
mixed	$data	The data to set.
bool	$testmaxsize	If set to true then we test the maxsize arg and reduce if required. If this is set to false you will need to perform these checks yourself. This allows for bulk set's to be performed and maxsize tests performed once.

Return values

bool	True if the operation was a success false otherwise.

set_many()

cachestore_session::set_many

(

array

$keyvaluearray

)

Sets many items in the cache in a single transaction.

Parameters

array

$keyvaluearray

An array of key value pairs. Each item in the array will be an associative array with two keys, 'key' and 'value'.

Return values

int	The number of items successfully set. It is up to the developer to check this matches the number of items sent ... if they care that is.

Reimplemented from cache_store.

(

)

This store supports native TTL handling.

Return values

bool

inherited

Returns true if the store instance guarantees data.

Return values

bool

supports_dereferencing_objects()

inherited

Returns true if the store automatically dereferences objects.

Return values

bool

supports_multiple_identifiers()

cachestore_session::supports_multiple_identifiers

(

)

Returns false as this store does not support multiple identifiers.

(This optional function is a performance optimisation; it must be consistent with the value from get_supported_features.)

Return values

bool

False

Reimplemented from cache_store.

supports_native_ttl()

cache_store::supports_native_ttl ( )

inherited

Returns true if the store instance supports native ttl.

Member Data Documentation

$ttl

int cachestore_session::$ttl = 0

protected

The ttl if there is one.

Hopefully not.

DEREFERENCES_OBJECTS

const cache_store::DEREFERENCES_OBJECTS = 16

inherited

The cache store dereferences objects.

When set, loaders will assume that all data coming from this store has already had all references resolved. So even for complex object structures it will not try to remove references again.

MODE_APPLICATION

const cache_store::MODE_APPLICATION = 1

inherited

Application caches.

These are shared caches.

MODE_REQUEST

const cache_store::MODE_REQUEST = 4

inherited

Request caches.

Static caches really.

MODE_SESSION

const cache_store::MODE_SESSION = 2

inherited

Session caches.

Just access to the PHP session.
