Methods

SetCachePolicy(IPrincipal, ContentReference, HttpContextBase, Settings, Nullable<DateTime>)

Unsupported INTERNAL API! Not covered by semantic versioning; might change without notice. Sets the cache policy for this request based on parameters as current user and parameters.

Declaration
public virtual void SetCachePolicy(IPrincipal currentPrincipal, ContentReference currentContent, HttpContextBase httpContext, Settings configurationSettings, DateTime? contentExpiration)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal currentPrincipal
ContentReference currentContent
System.Web.HttpContextBase httpContext
Settings configurationSettings
System.Nullable<System.DateTime> contentExpiration
Remarks

Override this method if you wish to customize the cache policy for a page. The output cache is turned on based on the following criteria:

1. The EPnCachePolicyTimeout in web.config is > 0.

2. The current user must not be logged on, aka Anonymous.

3. The request must be a GET type request. Hence, Postbacks and form postings will not be cached.

4. The current page must be the published version (the WorkID is == 0).

The cache parameters are fetched from web.config, more specifically the EPsCacheVaryByCustom and EPsCacheVaryByParams settings. Additionally, a dependency to the DataFactoryCache is set. When pages are changed, the cache is flushed. Cache item expiration is set to the HttpCacheExpiration setting, which is the number of seconds the item should reside in the cache, as long as the StopPublish value of the page is not less than the policy timeout (in which case, the StopPublish value is used).
