RamCache class

Arbitary storage of objects in memory for later use.

purpose

• Objects are stored with a key for retrieval.
• The cache can be segmented per session to prevent unintended crosstalk for server side caches
• The cache is implemented with static methods so that it can be used without explicitily creating instances of RamCache

##Node Examples

RamCache.remember('MyKey', value);
print(RamCache.recall('MyKey'));
RamCache.forget('MyKey');

##Session Examples

RamCache.remember('MyKey', value, SessionGUID);
print(RamCache.recall('MyKey', SessionGUID));
RamCache.forget('MyKey', SessionGUID);

##Incorrect Examples

var myCache = New RamCache(); //there is no need to use new
myCache.remember('MyKey', value); //this will not spawn a new cache, it will use the common node cache

Static Methods

destroySessionCache(dynamic session) → dynamic

Removes all values for a particular session.

forget(dynamic key, [dynamic session]) → Object?
