Very cool! Are you thinking about handling cache invalidation or is it not necessary in your case? Would make for a great follow up post (hint hint ;)

[LodewijkSioen]

Well, it's all academic. We're not actually using this :)

It is possible to give a cache-timeout in the Enterprise Edition on github:

 [Cached(TimeoutInMinutes = 5, CacheKeyGenerator = typeof(DummyCacheKeyGenerator), CacheRegion = "region")]
public virtual DateTime CachedMethodWithSettings(string argumentOne, int argumentTwo)
{    
    return DateTime.Now;
}

Am I correct that the DefaultCacheProvider doesn't check this at the moment?

[LodewijkSioen]

On line 41 an item is added to the cache with an absolute expiration. The cache implementation itself is responsible for invalidation.

Yes, I'd seen that. Just wasn't sure if I was missing anything. So I understood it correctly. Cool, thanks! Nice, clean implementation by the way!

[LodewijkSioen]

Thanks! Haven't actually used it though, so it's all just an exercise now.

[petermorlion]

Exercise is good :)
