NAME

Class::Simple::Cached - cache messages to an object

VERSION

Version 0.05

SYNOPSIS

A sub-class of Class::Simple which caches calls to read the status of an object that are otherwise expensive.

It is up to the caller to maintain the cache if the object comes out of sync with the cache, for example by changing its state.

You can use this class to create a caching layer to an object of any class that works on objects with a get/set model such as:

use Class::Simple;
my $obj = Class::Simple->new();
$obj->val('foo');
my $oldval = $obj->val();

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

new

Creates a Class::Simple::Cached object.

It takes one mandatory parameter: cache, which is either an object which understands clear(), get() and set() calls, such as an CHI object; or is a reference to a hash where the return values are to be stored.

It takes one optional argument: object, which is an object which is taken to be the object to be cached. If not given, an object of the class Class::Simple is instantiated and that is used.

can

Returns if the embedded object can handle a message

isa

Returns if the embedded object is the given type of object

BUGS

Doesn't work with Memoize.

Only works on messages that take no arguments. For that, use Class::Simple::Readonly::Cached.

Please report any bugs or feature requests to https://github.com/nigelhorne/Class-Simple-Readonly/issues. I will be notified, and then you'll automatically be notified of progress on your bug as I make changes.
