[MOBY-dev] RegistryCache

[mark wilkinson]

Can I update the RDF itself to make it more "correct" before you do this?  It will only take a day or two...

Hi Martin,

Actually, I didn't add it to CentralDigestCachedImpl for a several 
practical reasons:

1. The RDF methodology is very different from the existing methodology, 
so I did not want to just replace your code.
2. I separated registry calls and ontology definition caching into 
separate classes (see CentralCachedCallsImpl, which does extend you 
CentralImpl, and the static methods in MobyDataType etc. respectively), 
as these are now completely unrelated.
3. The existing CentralDigestCachedImpl methodology is still useful when 
you just want to get bits of the ontology.

I am willing to revamp the CentralDigestCachedImpl code sometime to use 
the RDF methodology, if you're keen on it.  All I would need you to do 
is build unit tests first, to elucidate the proper behaviour and make 
sure I don't break any of the current functionality on which Dashboard, 
etc. depend.

Regards,
Paul
