📛 NAME

Cache::Object — the data stored in a Cache.

🚀 Quick Reference

Use Case	Command	Description
Create a new object	my $object = new Cache::Object();	Construct a new Cache::Object instance.
Set the cache key	$object->set_key( $key );	Assign the key under which the object will be stored.
Store data	$object->set_data( $data );	Set the scalar or reference to the data to be cached.
Set expiration time	$object->set_expires_at( $expires_at );	Define when the object should expire from the cache.
Set creation time	$object->set_created_at( $created_at );	Record the time the object was created.
Retrieve stored data	$object->get_data();	Get the scalar or reference to the cached data.

📖 DESCRIPTION

Object is used by classes implementing the Cache interface as an object oriented wrapper around the data. End users will not normally use Object directly, but it can be retrieved via the get_object method on the Cache::Cache interface.

📋 SYNOPSIS

use Cache::Object;

my $object = new Cache::Object( );

$object->set_key( $key );
$object->set_data( $data );
$object->set_expires_at( $expires_at );
$object->set_created_at( $created_at );

⚙️ METHODS

new( )

Construct a new Cache::Object.

📦 PROPERTIES

• (get|set)_accessed_at — The time at which the object was last accessed. Various cache implementations will use the accessed_at property to store information for LRU algorithms. There is no guarantee that all caches will update this field, however.
• (get|set)_created_at — The time at which the object was created.
• (get|set)_data — A scalar containing or a reference pointing to the data to be stored.
• (get|set)_expires_at — The time at which the object should expire from the cache.
• (get|set)_key — The key under which the object was stored.
• (get|set)_size — The size of the frozen version of this object.
