IWMSCacheProxyCallback.OnQueryCache (Visual Basic .NET)

The OnQueryCache method is called by the cache plug-in to respond when the server calls IWMSCacheProxy.QueryCache.

Syntax

  

Parameters

lHr

[in] Integer indicating whether the call to IWMSCacheProxy.QueryCache was successful.

Response

[in] Member of the WMS_CACHE_QUERY_RESPONSE enumeration type indicating the response of the cache plug-in. This must be one of the following values.

Value Description
WMS_CACHE_QUERY_HIT_PLAY_ON_DEMAND The requested content is in the cache and is current. Therefore, it may be streamed from the cache or proxied from an upstream server. Each client request requires a separate connection.
WMS_CACHE_QUERY_HIT_PLAY_BROADCAST The requested content is in the cache and is current. Therefore, it may be streamed from the cache or proxied from an upstream server. A single stream can be split to multiple downstream clients.
WMS_CACHE_QUERY_HIT_PROCESS_REQUEST The requested content is in the cache. The server must process the request and send information about the result to the downstream client. This response is only valid if the server has called QueryCache and specified either WMS_CACHE_QUERY_GET_CONTENT_INFO or WMS_CACHE_QUERY_CACHE_EVENT.
WMS_CACHE_QUERY_MISS The requested content is not in the cache or is not current.

bstrCacheUrl

[in] String containing the cache URL.

pContentInfo

[in] IWMSContext object containing a content description context.

pCachePluginContext

[in] Object containing information defined by the cache plug-in. The server does not use this information. It passes the pointer back to the plug-in when it calls IWMSCacheProxy.QueryCacheMissPolicy.

varContext

[in] Object containing a value defined by the server to identify which call to IWMSCacheProxy.QueryCache the plug-in is responding to when it calls OnQueryCache. You must pass this value back unaltered.

Return Values

This method does not return a value.

If this method fails, it throws an exception.

Number Description
0x80070057 The content information context identified by the pContentInfo parameter does not exist, and the plug-in returned WMS_CACHE_QUERY_HIT_PLAY_ON_DEMAND in the Response parameter.
0x80070057 The VarContext parameter does not contain a valid reference.
0x80070057 The plug-in returned WMS_CACHE_QUERY_HIT_PROCESS_REQUEST in the Response parameter when the server called QueryCache and specified WMS_CACHE_QUERY_GET_CONTENT_INFO or WMS_CACHE_QUERY_CACHE_EVENT.
