Cache::BerkeleyDB 0.03

Cache::BerkeleyDB Perl module implements the Cache::Cache interface.

This module implements the Cache interface provided by the Cache::Cache family of modules written by DeWitt Clinton. It provides a practically drop-in replacement for Cache::FileCache.

As should be obvious from the name, the backend is based on BerkeleyDB.

SYNOPSIS

use Cache::BerkeleyDB;

my $cache = new Cache::BerkeleyDB( { 'namespace' => 'MyNamespace',
'default_expires_in' => 600 } );

See Cache::Cache for the usage synopsis.

OPTIONS

umask
The umask which will be active when any cache files are created. Defaults to 002. Note that this will have no effect on existing files.
