CI's db->cache_on() and Fuel models

edited November 2012 in Feature Requests
Hello there,

I'd like to ask how exactly the config option found in application/config/database.php
'cache_on'
affects the DB queries resulting from my advanced modules' models. I've set it to TRUE but when i turn on the profiler i see no difference at all to the execution time nor to the actual queries being made to the DB.

Basically, is there anything else I should do to make use of CI's db->cache_on() method as described here http://codeigniter.com/user_guide/database/caching.html ?

Or in general, what's the best strategy to cache DB connections when using the builtin find_all method on my models?

    The caching part still should work as intended. However, it appears that because FUEL modifies the drivers a little, the serialized object it uses (CI_DB_result), it doesn't have all the methods on it that FUEL has extended.

    I'm looking into that issue.

    After spending some time on this, I've looked into the stock Blog module and basically implemented a get_cache() / save_cache() combo just as the one featured in the Fuel_blog library.

    That works pretty well indeed, all I need. Thanks anyway!
