cache table implementation

Hi,

Does anyone have a cache table implementation for Ruby that expires
entries on a least-recently-used basis?

Thanks,
Navin.

I haven't ever used it, but it claims to use LRU. Both the RAA
(raa.ruby-lang.org) and RubyForge are your friends for this sort of
thing (although I found it through google: ruby lru cache).

Thanks, you're right. I did some Google searches with not much luck,
then realised I should look at other resources.

I didn't actually find this particular one. Seems like it might be a
bit old but there's a whole Library/Cache section on RAA. I'm looking
through that right now... some stuff seems to have disappeared
unfortunately.

Cheers,
Navin.

You can find a cache implementation in the Nitro distribution:

in the file:

lib/glue/cache.rb

And there's a simple object cache in Catapult (and, in a way, that's
basically all Catapult is, a WEBrick-hosted, URL-driven object cache),
though it never bothers to drop anything (but that's on purpose, since
that's a function better added via a dynamically loaded object, under
the principle of Don't Do Anything You Can Get Someone/Something Else
To Do Using Some Ruby Meta-programming, usually shortened to
DDAYCGS/SETDUSRMp. )
