iv icons and cacheing results
Posted: Tue Jun 03, 2003 12:27 am
Hi,
I followed your sourceforge listing here. Thks for the great class. I visited the IV site where they explained:
a) download the icons locally
b) we should cache results locally
Both of these things would reduce bandwidth and therefore increase liklihood this great service continues.
a) If you are thinking of versioning your class +1 I got the icons zipped - if you want to distribute them with your class to save you a few minutes..
$iconpath= /iv_icons/s/ #for small icons
$iconpath= /iv_icons/l/ #for large icons
Hopefully this would help your class users and IV too.
b) Cache - I am sure I can write it to a file, but how would you check it every 3 hours? IV say their refresh is 3 hrs now.
Thanks for the class!
Cheers
Paul
