class	yii\caching\WinCache
Extends	Cache » yii\base\Component » yii\base\BaseObject
Implements	CacheInterface, yii\base\Configurable
Since	2.0
Source	framework/caching/WinCache.php

WinCache provides Windows Cache caching in terms of an application component.

To use this application component, the WinCache PHP extension must be loaded. Also note that “wincache.ucenabled” should be set to “On” in your php.ini file.

See Cache manual for common cache operations that are supported by WinCache.

For more details and usage information on Cache, see the guide article on caching.

Method details

exists()

public function exists(mixed $key): bool

Checks whether a specified key exists in the cache.

This can be faster than getting the value from the cache if the data is big. Note that this method does not check whether the dependency associated with the cached data, if there is any, has changed. So a call to get() may return false while exists returns true.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
$key	mixed	A key identifying the cached value. This can be a simple string or a complex data structure consisting of factors representing the key.

Returns

bool: True if a value exists in cache, false if the value is not in the cache or expired.

addValue()

protected function addValue(string $key, mixed $value, int $duration): bool

Stores a value identified by a key into cache if the cache does not contain this key.

This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
$key	string	The key identifying the value to be cached
$value	mixed	The value to be cached. Most often it’s a string. If you have disabled $serializer, it could be something else.
$duration	int	The number of seconds in which the cached value will expire. 0 means never expire.

Returns

bool: True if the value is successfully stored into cache, false otherwise

addValues()

protected function addValues(array $data, int $duration): array

Adds multiple key-value pairs to cache.

The default implementation calls addValue() multiple times add values one by one. If the underlying cache storage supports multiadd, this method should be overridden to exploit that feature.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
$data	array	Array where key corresponds to cache key while value is the value stored
$duration	int	The number of seconds in which the cached values will expire. 0 means never expire.

Returns

array: Array of failed keys

deleteValue()

protected function deleteValue(string $key): bool

Deletes a value with the specified key from cache This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
$key	string	The key of the value to be deleted

Returns

bool: If no error happens during deletion

flushValues()

protected function flushValues(): bool

Deletes all values from cache.

This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

Returns

bool: Whether the flush operation was successful.

getValue()

protected function getValue(string $key): string|bool

Retrieves a value from cache with a specified key.

This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
$key	string	A unique key identifying the cached value

Returns

string|bool: The value stored in cache, false if the value is not in the cache or expired.

getValues()

protected function getValues(array $keys): array

Retrieves multiple values from cache with the specified keys.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
$keys	array	A list of keys identifying the cached values

Returns

array: A list of cached values indexed by the keys

setValue()

protected function setValue(string $key, mixed $value, int $duration): bool

Stores a value identified by a key in cache.

This is the implementation of the method declared in the parent class.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
$key	string	The key identifying the value to be cached
$value	mixed	The value to be cached. Most often it’s a string. If you have disabled $serializer, it could be something else.
$duration	int	The number of seconds in which the cached value will expire. 0 means never expire.

Returns

bool: True if the value is successfully stored into cache, false otherwise

setValues()

protected function setValues(array $data, int $duration): array

Stores multiple key-value pairs in cache.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
$data	array	Array where key corresponds to cache key while value is the value stored
$duration	int	The number of seconds in which the cached values will expire. 0 means never expire.

Returns

array: Array of failed keys
