This walkthrough demonstrates how to remove items from the cache.

To reproduce this demonstration

  1. Configure the cache. For the necessary steps, see "QuickStart Configuration" in Caching QuickStart.

  2. Declare a member variable for the CacheManager object in the QuickStartForm class.

    private CacheManager primitivesCache;
    
    Private primitivesCache As CacheManager
    
  3. In the method that responds to the user's request to remove an item from the cache, add the following code.

    // Prompt the user for the key of the item to be removed.
    if (this.selectItemForm.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
    {
      // Request that the item be removed from the cache. 
      this.primitivesCache.Remove(selectItemForm.ItemKey);
    }
    
    ' Prompt the user for the key of the item to be removed.
    If (Me.selectItemForm.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK) Then
      ' Request that the item be removed from the cache. 
      Me.primitivesCache.Remove(selectItemForm.ItemKey)
    End If
