Caching xml files with Zend_Cache

Hi all,

I'm having trouble figuring out how to cache a config.xml for my ZF application. I should use 'File' as the frontend, but how do I pass the environment variable to the cache? Should I be using different XML configuration files in order to accomodate either my development, testing and staging environments? That doesn't seem right.

In other words, how do I best cache this config object using File as the Zend_Cache frontend?

self::$_config = new Zend_Config_Xml("{$this->_root}/application/config.xml", $this->_env);

Thanks for your input and help!

Figured it out, Re: Caching xml files with Zend_Cache

Never mind, I figured it out. Makes sense, of course...

$configPath = $this->_root . '/application/config.xml';
$frontend = array(
'master_files' => array(
$configPath),
'automatic_serialization' => true);
$backend = array();
$cache = Zend_Cache::factory('File', 'Memcached', $frontend, $backend);
if (! ($config = $cache->load('configXml'))) {
$config = new Zend_Config_Xml($configPath, $this->_env);
$cache->save($config, 'configXml');
}
