xcache question(advanced)

[sturdevk]

Hi, All,

I'm a newie for PHP programming and get thrown into vBulletin customization project two weeks ago. I have a question about vBulletin integrated with xCache.

I know that if we use xcache for datastore, the data in the datastore will be cached in the memory. my use case is that we have to add the forums to vBulletin's DB through external system. so after doing that, a synchronization between DB and cache is a must. otherwise, database has new forums information,but cached data doesn't.

my question is that will xcache go to automatically load the new forums information after a certain period by implementing cache expiry mechanism? such as after 10 minutes, vBulletin will expire the cache and load the data from DB to cache again?

Thanks in advance.
