    object value,
    IEnumerable<DataCacheTag> tags
)

public:

    String^ key,
    Object^ value,
    IEnumerable<DataCacheTag^>^ tags
)

member Add :

        value:Object *
        tags:IEnumerable<DataCacheTag> -> DataCacheItemVersion

Public Function Add (
    key As String,
    value As Object,
    tags As IEnumerable(Of DataCacheTag)
) As DataCacheItemVersion

Parameters

• key
  Type: System.String

  A unique value that is used to store and retrieve the object from the cache. Key names must be less than 65 KB.

• value
  Type: System.Object

  The object saved to the cache.

• tags
  Type: System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<DataCacheTag>

  An array of DataCacheTag objects to associate with the cached object.

Return Value

Type: Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Caching.DataCacheItemVersion

A DataCacheItemVersion object that represents the version of the object saved to the cache under the key value.

Remarks

If an item using the same key is already present in the cache, this call throws an exception of type DataCacheException with the ErrorCode set to KeyAlreadyExists. Expiration settings are derived from the named cache configuration.

Tags may only be used to retrieve a cached object if that object is stored in a region. This overload does not save the object to a region.
