<DIV id=idOWAReplyText68981 dir=ltr>I don't have much experience with tile
caching and the new MapGuide, but if the data is only being updated once per day
or once every few days, and you have high levels of usage on your web app, I'd
have to believe that you would get some kind of performance return from only
having to render those layers when they are actually modified...
Hmm. I think that was a run-on-sentence.</DIV>

<DIV>If the layer will be changing a lot, is there any point for it to be a base
layer at all? Just make it a regular dynamic layer... </DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>It would be useful to set a
property on the layer like InvalidateDate that would force tile-replacement
for tiles that are older than that date. If this feature was
available, it would be possible to set up a trigger in Oracle to
invalidate the tile cache for affected layers. I'd prefer this method to
just deleting the cache, because of the huge file IO caused by the delete, and
because it would reduce fragmentation of the volume. This would
be usable by other external processes, such as daily SDF updates via FME,
etc...</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>As far as I understand it, only changes to the layer or map definitions
will be detected. For example change in the styling for the layer. Changes to
the actual data in Oracle will not be detected. </DIV>
