Doesn't play nicely with MessageHandlers #37

Open grumpydev opened 11 years ago

grumpydev commented 11 years ago

Currently have I have a MessageHandler that decorates my models with hypermedia links. When I add the server caching options (client only is fine) then the MessageHandler runs, but the cache serves the version from before it has run (so no links).

I had the same issue and solved it for myself with this hack: https://github.com/ArtOfContext/AspNetWebApi-OutputCache/commit/a2f3eb9489166daff9ec7f06b9327b701f16cf1b

Would be nice to have this native to library. @filipw - if you have a suggestion of how to handle this better let me know and I could submit. Basically from code elsewhere in web api pipeline - such as in a DelegatingHandler - I would like to update the cache that was already populated by CacheOutputAttribute without having to know the cache key, absolute expiration, etc. Perhaps adding a method to CacheExtensions.
