Caching in WCF?

Question

I am building a WCF service. I need to store reference data in the cache which I will look up every time I receive input from the method... What is the right way to do this?

Answer 1

There are many ways you can do this. One fairly easy is to host the System.Web.Cache object yourself and use that to store the reference data. There's a good example of that here: http://kjellsj.blogspot.com/2007/11/wcf-caching-claims-using.html
