Item expiration question
As I understand it there are two item expiration options in membase:
1. Absolute time expiration
2. Relative time expiration (expire in X seconds from now)
I'm wanting to implement more of a sliding scale for expiration. Like relative time expiration but if the item gets used keep extending it another 10 minutes or whatever. From my understanding I will need to do some of this work myself, it isn't a default option. Is there an easy way to extend the expiration of an item or will I just need to set it again with a new expiration to accomplish my goal? In my case the value won't change only the expiration but I suppose just calling set again with a new expiration would work. It would be ideal though not to have to reset the value since it isn't really changing.
Thanks,

Bryan,
You are correct the ability to set the expiration without setting the value again is not supported in Membase - you will have to set the value with the new expiration again.
There is a 'touch' feature on the roadmap that will provide the ability to set expiration without setting the value.
Please let us know if you have more questions.
Thanks
