Hello all,

We know that memcached or memcached-client doesn’t support regex… But  
It seems it doesn’t support expire\_fragment either 😕

I’m trying to use expire\_fragment with memcached as following :

expire\_fragment(:controller =\> ‘home’, :action =\> :list\_topics)

But apparently it’s not supported by memcached!

Would anyone know how to use expire\_fragment with memcached ?

Any help will be very appreciated !

Thank you !

Sounds like your question is about the Rails web framework, not about  
the Ruby programming language.

Try a Rails mailing list or group.
