NAME

       Cache::Memory - Memory based implementation of the Cache interface

SYNOPSIS

         use Cache::Memory;

         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( namespace => 'MyNamespace',
                                         default_expires => '600 sec' );

       See Cache for the usage synopsis.

DESCRIPTION

       The Cache::Memory class implements the Cache interface.  This cache stores data on a per-
       process basis.  This is the fastest of the cache implementations, but is memory intensive
       and data can not be shared between processes.  It also does not persist after the process
       dies.  However data will remain in the cache until cleared or it expires.  The data will
       be shared between instances of the cache object, a cache object going out of scope will
       not destroy the data.

CONSTRUCTOR

         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( %options )

       The constructor takes cache properties as named arguments, for example:

         my $cache = Cache::Memory->new( namespace => 'MyNamespace',
                                         default_expires => '600 sec' );

       See 'PROPERTIES' below and in the Cache documentation for a list of all available
       properties that can be set.

METHODS

       See 'Cache' for the API documentation.

PROPERTIES

       Cache::Memory adds the property 'namespace', which allows you to specify a different
       caching store area to use from the default.  All methods will work ONLY on the namespace
       specified.

        my $ns = $c->namespace();
        $c->set_namespace( $namespace );

       For additional properties, see the 'Cache' documentation.
