NAME
       LWP::ConnCache - Connection cache manager

NOTE
       This module is experimental.  Details of its interface is likely to
       change in the future.

SYNOPSIS
	use LWP::ConnCache;
	my $cache = LWP::ConnCache->new;
	$cache->deposit($type, $key, $sock);
	$sock = $cache->withdraw($type, $key);

DESCRIPTION
       The "LWP::ConnCache" class is the standard connection cache manager for
       LWP::UserAgent.

METHODS
       The following basic methods are provided:

   new
	   my $cache = LWP::ConnCache->new( %options )

       This method constructs a new LWP::ConnCache object.  The only option
       currently accepted is "total_capacity".	If specified it initialize the
       "total_capacity" in LWP::ConnCache option. It defaults to 1.

   total_capacity
	   my $cap = $cache->total_capacity;
	   $cache->total_capacity(0); # drop all immediately
	   $cache->total_capacity(undef); # no limit
	   $cache->total_capacity($number);

       Get/sets the number of connection that will be cached.  Connections
       will start to be dropped when this limit is reached.  If set to 0, then
       all connections are immediately dropped.	 If set to "undef", then there
       is no limit.

   capacity
	   my $http_capacity = $cache->capacity('http');
	   $cache->capacity('http', 2 );

       Get/set a limit for the number of connections of the specified type
       that can be cached.  The first parameter is a short string like "http"
       or "ftp".

   drop
	   $cache->drop(); # Drop ALL connections
	   # which is just a synonym for:
	   $cache->drop(sub{1}); # Drop ALL connections
	   # drop all connections older than 22 seconds and add a reason for it!
	   $cache->drop(22, "Older than 22 secs dropped");
	   # which is just a synonym for:
	   $cache->drop(sub {
	       my ($conn, $type, $key, $deposit_time) = @_;
	       if ($deposit_time < 22) {
		   # true values drop the connection
		   return 1;
	       }
	       # false values don't drop the connection
	       return 0;
	   }, "Older than 22 secs dropped" );

       Drop connections by some criteria.  The $checker argument is a
       subroutine that is called for each connection.  If the routine returns
       a TRUE value then the connection is dropped.  The routine is called
       with ($conn, $type, $key, $deposit_time) as arguments.

       Shortcuts: If the $checker argument is absent (or "undef") all cached
       connections are dropped.	 If the $checker is a number then all
       connections untouched that the given number of seconds or more are
       dropped.	 If $checker is a string then all connections of the given
       type are dropped.

       The "reason" is passed on to the "dropped" in LWP::ConnCache method.

   prune
	   $cache->prune();

       Calling this method will drop all connections that are dead.  This is
       tested by calling the "ping" in LWP::ConnCache method on the
       connections. If the "ping" in LWP::ConnCache method exists and returns
       a false value, then the connection is dropped.

   get_types
	   my @types = $cache->get_types();

       This returns all the "type" fields used for the currently cached
       connections.

   get_connections
	   my @conns = $cache->get_connections(); # all connections
	   my @conns = $cache->get_connections('http'); # connections for http

       This returns all connection objects of the specified type.  If no type
       is specified then all connections are returned.	In scalar context the
       number of cached connections of the specified type is returned.

PROTOCOL METHODS
       The following methods are called by low-level protocol modules to try
       to save away connections and to get them back.

   deposit
	   $cache->deposit($type, $key, $conn);

       This method adds a new connection to the cache.	As a result, other
       already cached connections might be dropped.  Multiple connections with
       the same type/key might be added.

   withdraw
	   my $conn = $cache->withdraw($type, $key);

       This method tries to fetch back a connection that was previously
       deposited.  If no cached connection with the specified $type/$key is
       found, then "undef" is returned.	 There is not guarantee that a
       deposited connection can be withdrawn, as the cache manger is free to
       drop connections at any time.

INTERNAL METHODS
       The following methods are called internally.  Subclasses might want to
       override them.

   enforce_limits
	   $conn->enforce_limits([$type])

       This method is called with after a new connection is added (deposited)
       in the cache or capacity limits are adjusted.  The default
       implementation drops connections until the specified capacity limits
       are not exceeded.

   dropping
	   $conn->dropping($conn_record, $reason)

       This method is called when a connection is dropped.  The record
       belonging to the dropped connection is passed as the first argument and
       a string describing the reason for the drop is passed as the second
       argument.  The default implementation makes some noise if the
       $LWP::ConnCache::DEBUG variable is set and nothing more.

SUBCLASSING
       For specialized cache policy it makes sense to subclass
       "LWP::ConnCache" and perhaps override the "deposit" in LWP::ConnCache,
       "enforce_limits" in LWP::ConnCache, and "dropping" in LWP::ConnCache
       methods.

       The object itself is a hash.  Keys prefixed with "cc_" are reserved for
       the base class.
