- We only now serialize when required, eg when the store doesn't do it.
- static acceleration now serializes on set to reduce overhead on load.
- null now works in static acceleration as we use an array for storage metadata
- static acceleration delete uses isset rather than an array_search.
If the cache does all the dereferencing when it stores and loads
the objects, then the cache loaders don't need to do that work.
This is true of all caches that use something other than PHP's memory
to store their results.
Cache stores are now responsible for deciding if they are suitable
for use as the primary cache store during unit and acceptance tests
Changes are as follows:
* New method: cache_store::ready_to_be_used_for_testing
* Core cache store have been updated to override this method as
required.
* MongoDB usesafe default changed to true to match actual default
behaviour.
This change is a large change to the way sessions are handled
within MUC after it was discovered that session did not function
as expected when any store other than the default session store
was being used.
As part of this change the session loader has been largely
customised in order to consolidate session data for the loader.
The unit tests have also being greatly increased to provide
better coverage for sessions.
