Hi Joe,

I have developed a custom feature that pulls in a video feed from Vimeo and I want to cache the response.

I can do this using standard asp.net caching:

                var videos = (IList<Video>)Cache["VimeoFeed"];
                if (videos == null) {
                    videos = GetVideosFromVimeo(feedUrl);
                    Cache["VimeoFeed"] = videos;
                }

However, I notice that there is an Is Cacheable property on mojoPortal features. How should this be used? Is this just output caching?

Also I wondered whether perhaps you had some cache helper methods that I should use for caching objects and type casting etc?

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the reply.

The main reason is that I am calling a remote web service and have multiple instances on the page that use the same data. I don't really want two requests to the external service every time the page loads, plus the data is unlikely to change that often.

Thanks again,

Ben
