util_memoize (public)

 util_memoize script [ max_age ]

Defined in packages/acs-tcl/tcl/memoize-procs-naviserver.tcl

If script has been executed before, return the value it returned last time, unless it was more than max_age seconds ago.

Otherwise, evaluate script and cache and return the result.

Note: script is not evaluated with uplevel.

Parameters:

script (required)

A Tcl script whose value should be memoized. May be best to pass this as a list, e.g. [list someproc $arg1 $arg2].

max_age (optional)

The maximum age in seconds for the cached value of script. If the cached value is older than max_age seconds, script will be re-executed.

Returns:

The possibly-cached value returned by script.
