ips_CacheRegistry -> getCache/_loadCaches

[teraßyte]

I am in the process of converting the global shoutbox and I've come across an issue with the caches.


In IPB 2.3 was possible to use init_load_cache to load an array of caches at once but now in IPB 3 this is not possible anymore, the only way is to use $this->cache->getCache('cache_name') but in this way I need to use 3 different queries to load 3 caches.

A quick solution would be to change the function _loadCache from private to public so everyone can access it or update the function getCache to support an array of caches.

Can you not manage this through you app's coreVariables.php?

At least, that's how I understood it based on the article. http://resources.invisionpower.com/index.php?appcomponent=cms&module=articles&article=7508

No I can't, the global shoutbox is an Hook so I can't load the shoutbox coreVariables.php :)

You could within the application itself, but not outside the application.

@terabyte, cleaned way is to support an array of caches. Good suggestion. Easy to implement in next release (e.g. 3.0.1)

I was hoping that you implement this small change for 3.0.0 :(


Actually I have already rewritten the function on my own just for fun lol

    static public function getCache( $keys )

      {

          if ( is_string( $keys ) )

          {

              if ( ! in_array( $keys, array_keys( self::$data_store ) ) )

              {

                  self::_loadCaches( array( $keys ) );

              }


              return self::$data_store[ $keys ];

          }

          elseif ( is_array( $keys ) && count( $keys ) )

          {

              $toLoad = array();


              foreach( $keys as $key )

              {

                  if ( ! in_array( $key, array_keys( self::$data_store ) ) )

                  {

                      $toLoad[] = $key;

                  }

              }


              self::_loadCaches( $toLoad );


              return TRUE;

          }


          return FALSE;

      }

Fine fine fine, since you twisted my arm (and *ahem* wrote the code yourself)
