RE: [PHP] object caching on the server

Brad tipped me off to this: http://www.php.net/manual/ref.sem.php That will let you do shared variables, but I don't know if it will do objects. As an aside, I just thought of a cool (but probably useless) way of caching PHP files (not objects): make them self-modifying. They would re-write their own code whenever they expire, and then write a new expires time into code. When the page is called, it checks if it has expired. If it has, it re-writes itself with new content, otherwise it displays the embedded static content. Another way to do this is to have the PHP file write a .html file that it includes in itself if it's expired. Less cool, but probably more useful. --Bruce Bruce Christensen Intel Corporation brucex.r.christensen@intel.com -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Beckford [mailto:kbeckford@bigorbit.com] Sent: Friday, August 11, 2000 12:11 PM To: GPHP Subject: [PHP] object caching on the server Is there a way/technique to cache objects in server memory, so I may avoid some of the overhead of object creation? I guess I mean making them persistent in the same way that *_pconnect does for the database functions. ______________________________________ Kevin Beckford Programmer Big Orbit - Specializing in new media for youth www: http://www.bigorbit.com email: kbeckford@bigorbit.com [t] 416.516.0705 [f] 416.516.9256 "Intelligence is a tool used achieve goals, however goals are not always chosen wisely..." -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
