the regex should be fine (I tested it with a regex online tool). Doesn't make a difference if I use your regex. Thanks for your help, I can fix the problem by clearing the exact values. But I'd like to understand what's wrong with clearing the cache by regex. On Tuesday, December 16, 2014 1:3

well, according to the documentation it should work, so perhaps you encountered a bug. Just a question, where did you put your routes.py? if in the application, then you can only route controllers and functions. On Monday, December 15, 2014 3:42:53 AM UTC-7, tim.n...@conted.ox.ac.uk wrote: >

I suppose it depends on what you mean by this " application logic completely independent from persistent data storage" So you certainly can have that completely independent, though you wouldn't persist anything. Is the idea that you'd update a memory representation of objects only, and somehow y

You can also just import current in the module and then refer to it directly within your function (i.e., no need to pass current as an argument to the function). Anthony On Sunday, December 14, 2014 11:07:48 PM UTC-5, Mark Graves wrote: > > Right, I knew it looked too easy. > > Thanks, Anthony
