Sep 16, 2015 at 19:59 comment added TechCrunch How can client refresh cache by itself, without being asked? Am I missing something. I don't want cache to be refreshed unless asked by App. So the only possibility is to clear item in cache before making the call or pass a parameter to force.
Sep 16, 2015 at 19:54 comment added Mike Partridge I must be misunderstanding something, because it seems like adding a single method to your API client that the cache-aware apps can use would be easier than created two versions of lots of methods. Maybe you want to refresh as little as possible when needed?
Sep 16, 2015 at 19:42 comment added TechCrunch I'm writing overloaded methods in client with extra parameter of forAPIRequest for one of them. So that only cache aware apps can use that parameter. Rest of the apps don't care. Sounds ok ?
Sep 16, 2015 at 19:31 comment added Mike Partridge Doesn't adding the extra parameter make the webapp aware of the storage mechanism?
Sep 16, 2015 at 14:19 comment added TechCrunch I decided to go ahead with adding extra parameter and write overloaded functions in client. Deleting and adding same object looks awful wastage of time and GC. However, I'm still open to suggestions.

Sep 15, 2015 at 20:24 comment added TechCrunch @MikePartridge, I want webapp to be unaware of the storage. Webapp simply makes a request and client returns it. However, webapp knows that caching can be enabled through a config file. Other apps that may use this client don't need caching and may not want to handle that.
Sep 15, 2015 at 19:55 comment added Mike Partridge Can you add the ability to refresh the cache to the API client library, so that your webapp can use it as needed? Or are you concerned that the storage mechanism should be unknown to the webapp?
