NAME

Cache::SizeAwareSharedMemoryCache -- extends the Cache::SizeAwareMemoryCache module

DESCRIPTION

The SizeAwareSharedMemoryCache extends the SizeAwareMemoryCache class and binds the data store to shared memory so that separate process can use the same cache.

SYNOPSIS

  use Cache::SizeAwareSharedMemoryCache;

  my %cache_options = ( 'namespace' => 'MyNamespace',
                        'default_expires_in' => 600,
                        'max_size' => 10000 );

  my $size_aware_shared_memory_cache =
    new Cache::SizeAwareSharedMemoryCache( \%cache_options ) or
      croak( "Couldn't instantiate SizeAwareSharedMemoryCache" );
