Release Notes

(16th September, 2001 - by Todd Gochenour, tgochenour@peregrine.com)

• Removed attribute "encoding" in all areas, since Object serialization stores strings in UTF-8 format, encoding is no longer necessary.
• Added Synchronization to getCacheEntry() to insure multiple threads do not access HashMap and get erroneous results.
• Implemented property cache.useHostDomainInKey (true/false) to prepend URL request server name to cache key when cache used by multiple servers. The "cache.domainname" property found in oscache.properties (not used in code) was removed.
• Corrected file caching logic so that multiple processes can share cache information (file locking). Missing still is the ability to signal processes that a cache needs to be flushed when using Memory Caching along with File Caching.
• Unit testing revealed some minor configuration bugs which were corrected.
