Cache?

[Chris]

Hi

I'm new to web services but have done a bit with web applications
Is there a cache in web services as in web applications
I want to read in some variables that will live for ever but I don't want to have to read them every time some connects to the web service

Thanks in advance

Chris.

Yes - but the cache doesn't work unless you have a real SOAP message - you
won't hit the cache if you're using the not-quite-SOAP-test-page. Add a
CacheDuration property to your WebMethod attribute.
