RE: Portlet.isCacheable?

Hi,

This does it by creating the ECS element and saving it into the
AbstractPortlet - which seems fine by me...

...just wary of any "gotchas" in the VelocityPortlet - since that
gets Velocity to put the expanded template directly onto the output
stream.

I plan to change this - at least for when caching is turned on - any
reason why I can't just always do this, that is, expand the template
into a string and then wrap it in an ECS StringElement ?

TIA,
Chris

I think I just found one - my customizer now has all the buttons at
the bottom of the page - I guess I should do as the current
VelocityPortlet does when caching is turned off, ie expand the
template directly to the output stream...

RE: Portlet.isCacheable?

[Chris Kimpton <ki...@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

...and I want to actually cache several variations of content for a
given portlet.

That is, based on parameters coming in, the portlet may display one
or more variations.  Thus I want to have a map of these cached
variations, keyed on the parameters that come in - like the getHandle
stuff - only based on the current requests parameters.

Obviously this is only useful for non-user specific content - as I
don't plan to cache it per user (unless someone thinks that would be
useful) - and this could lead to some heavy memory usage...

Does this sound ok?

Regards,
Chris
