I'm creating a custom handler that does not extend Page (only implements
IHttpHandler) - and I would like for its output to be cached to improve
runtime performance. I would like to leverage ASP.NET's output caching
capabilities that are already in place for standard Page requests. How can I
leverage the existing output caching mechanisms with my custom HTTP handler?
I'd like the standard output caching options to be available, if possible
(options like sliding expiration, etc).
Thanks. 2 4656
Cramer,
You can utilize output caching on a handler, however you have to do it via code instead of declaratively. If you add this block of code inside the “ProcessRequest ” method your handler response will be cached.
TimeSpan freshness = new TimeSpan(0, 0, 5, 0);
DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
context.Respons e.Cache.SetExpi res(now.Add(fre shness));
context.Respons e.Cache.SetMaxA ge(freshness);
context.Respons e.Cache.SetCach eability(HttpCa cheability.Serv er);
context.Respons e.Cache.SetVali dUntilExpires(t rue);
You can test it out pretty easily – write a handler which returns the current time
context.Respons e.ContentType = "text/plain";
context.Respons e.Write("Hello World " + DateTime.Now.To LongTimeString( ));
And run the handler without the caching code a few times. The seconds will update (as you would expect). Add that block of code above and run it again, voila – the time won’t change, its serving the page out of the output cache now.
It supports all the same methods the declarative approach does and affords you even more control.
context.Respons e.Cache.VaryByP arams["C"] = true;
Very good! Thanks! Since the OP I was making progress, but your sample code
shows how simple it can be.

Hi.
I had a very frustrating afternoon and evening but I have got it all under
control now so all of a sudden I am in a good mood. I want to share some
insights on output caching with you lot.
After looking at the use of the OutputCache directive and tinkering with it
a bit I found its usability.very limited. Think of it: it is okay for static
content. Well that's nice but no big deal. Static content is cheap anyway,

Output caching is a wonderful thing - but it apparently makes no
distinctions among users. What would be good way to output cache a page per
user? In my ASP.NET Web application authenticated users see things
differently than unauthenticated users. I'd like to be able to cache the
pages so that the different user types see output only relevant to their
security access level.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Is there a setting in the web.config that will enable page-output caching
for an entire site? All the documentation I find on output caching deals at
the page or sub-page level. I saw a couple posts on Usenet that made
reference to a "web.config" setting, but didn't actually state what it was.
I have a lot of pages I want to cache and would like to set it once instead
of each page.
Thanks,

Is there any way, either via an ASHX file or lines in a code behind, to

This is driving me nuts. Nothing I try works. I've tried this in the
ProcessRequest method, but it doesn't appear to do anything:
context.Response.Cache.VaryByParams = true;
context.Response.Cache.SetExpires(DateTime.Now.Add(Configuration.Settings.OutputHandlerCacheTimeout));

I have an ASP.NET 2.0 application I've localized to English, French,
German, and Italian.
I used resource (.resx) files.
Most of the site is static content, easily 90% of it, so I thought
output caching would be useful.
I implemented output caching at 60 seconds.
