sqlCacheDependency Element for caching (ASP.NET Settings Schema)

Defines the settings used by the SqlCacheDependency class for database caching and table-based polling against either Microsoft SQL Server 2000 or SQL Server 2005. This configuration setting has no effect when you use the <sqlCacheDependency> element in conjunction with query notifications on SQL Server 2005.

<sqlCacheDependency enabled="true|false" 
                    pollTime="number">
    <databases>...</databases>
</sqlCacheDependency>

<sqlCacheDependency enabled = "true" 
  pollTime = "60000">
  <databases>
    <add name = "" 
      connectionStringName = "" 
      pollTime = "60000"/>
