This is thanks to our posts in the forums.
I have an idea for a CacheManage feature. At the moment, you can only clear or expire a single key or everything. I was thinking that you could tell CacheManager to expire or clear a set of keys identified by some wildcard or regexp pattern. I'll give you an example:
I'm using the ColdBox cache manager to cache search results recordsets. For each search, I build a unique hash key from the criteria and prepend it with "SEARCH-". It would be nice to be able to expire all search results by telling CacheManager to expire keys starting with "SEARCH-".
Looking at the code, it seems like a fairly straightforward thing to do. I'm probably going to write my own by accessing the object pool directly but I think this could be a permanent feature of the CacheManager (which is already an awesome tool by the way).
This can be done just like the purgeViews mechanism is done.
