Site Cache

[InnoRex]

Dear Friends,

Dreamweaver uses an optional feature called "site cache".

- Can I access the data of this site cache from a dreamweaver extension?
- What kind of information are saved inside this site cache?
- And can I change the caching behaviour of dreamweaver
so that it is saving more information to the cache while caching than normal?

Thank you very much for your answers!
With best regards

No, there's no way to access that cache directly via the JS API.

Please explain more generally what you'd like to do and maybe there's a
different approach or technique for solving it.

Thank you for your answer.

I want to access the cache for retrieving a list of all php-functions for a specific file.
But it is not possible you said. - Is there another way?

You'll need to call:

dw.getDocumentDOM(file);

For each file you're interested in, and it will be opened internally and
you'll have access to the file as if it were opened by the user.

I suppose that you could create your own cache (stored in an XML file?),
then compare filedate with a cached filedate to determine if the user
has edited the file since the last time you cached the info (and the
data is valid or stale).

HTH,
Randy
