TSCacheWrite

Synopsis

#include <ts/ts.h>

TSAction TSCacheWrite(TSCont contp, TSCacheKey key)

Description

Asks the Traffic Server cache if contp can start writing the object corresponding to key to the cache.

If the object can be written, the cache calls contp back with the event TS_EVENT_CACHE_OPEN_WRITE. In this case, the cache also passes contp a cache vconnection and contp can then initiate a write operation on that vconnection using TSVConnWrite. The object is not committed to the cache until the vconnection is closed. When all data has been transferred, the user (contp) must do an TSVConnClose. In case of any errors, the user must do an TSVConnAbort(contp, 0).

If the object cannot be written, the cache calls contp back with the event TS_EVENT_CACHE_OPEN_WRITE_FAILED. This can happen, for example, if there is another object with the same key being written to the cache. The user (contp) has the option to cancel the action returned by TSCacheWrite.

Note that reentrant calls are possible, i.e. the cache can call back the user (contp) in the same call.
