Settings Cache Object

The settings_cache object is a global object that is available anywhere in the main script file. It is a shared name-value cache. Multiple SSO script instances that run in different threads of a single process can reuse this cache to get session information.

It includes the following function that sets the value of a cache setting:

set(name, value)

where:

• name is a string that identifies the setting name
• value is a string that identifies the setting value

It includes the following function that gets the value of a cache setting:

get(name)

where:

• name is a string that identifies the setting name

For example:

• The following code stores a value that CRM Desktop SSO gets in another instance of the SSO script:

  settings_cache.set("MyKey", "MyValue");

• The following code gets the stored value. If no value exists, then this code returns an empty string:

  var v = settings_cache.get("MyKey");
