ICacheProvider::GetCacheOperation Method
Returns the cache operation for the cache provider.
Syntax
virtual CACHE_OPERATION GetCacheOperation(
VOID
) const = 0;
Parameters
This method takes no parameters.
Return Value
A CACHE_OPERATION enumeration for the ICacheProvider pointer.
Remarks
CGlobalModule derived classes that register for GL_CACHE_OPERATION events receive an ICacheProvider pointer as a parameter on the CGlobalModule::OnGlobalCacheOperationvirtual method. You can retrieve a CACHE_OPERATION enumeration by calling the GetCacheOperation method on the ICacheProvider pointer.
Example
The following code example demonstrates how to create a global module that listens for GL_CACHE_OPERATION and GL_CACHE_CLEANUP events and then writes the ICacheProvider information to the Event Viewer.
Warning
IIS 7 generates a large number of events in the Event Viewer. To avoid a log overflow error in a production environment, you should generally avoid writing cache information to the event log. For demonstration purposes, this code example writes an entry to the Event Viewer in debug mode only.

The above code writes a new event to the application log of the Event Viewer, where the Data box contains a string similar to the following.
GetCacheOperation: CACHE_OPERATION_RETRIEVE
You can optionally compile the code by using the __stdcall (/Gz) calling convention instead of explicitly declaring the calling convention for each function.
