Thanks for the clarification. I just looked at ObjectCache.php and it appears to provide a set of functions for accessing cache data of any type. Is this correct? How does memcached fit into this? When I looked at BagOStuff, I didn't find a MemcacheBagOStuff class. Is it defined elsewhere? -- -- Dan Nessett _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
