ColdFusion 9: Added the function.

CacheGetProperties([type])

An Array of structures containing the cache properties. Each structure has the properties for the cache type: object or page. If you specify either type in the parameter, the array has a single structure entry. Each structure has the following fields: Structure element Description diskpersistent A Boolean value specifying whether to persist caches stored on disk through JVM restarts. eternal A Boolean value specifying whether no timeout or idletime applies. A true value indicates that the object or page is cached without any timespan being specified. maxelementsinmemory The maximum number of objects that can be cached in memory. If the number is exceeded and overflowtodisk is false, the new objects entered replace old elements using algorithm specified in the memoryevictionpolicy entry. maxelementsondisk The maximum number of objects that can be stored on disk if overfllowtodisk is true. memoryevictionpolicy The algorithm to used to evict old entries when maximum limit is reached, such as LRU (least recently used) or LFU (least frequently used). objecttype The cache type: object or template. overflowtodisk A Boolean value specifying whether when the maximum number of elements allowed in memory is reached, objects can be moved to disk, as determined by the memoryevictionpolicy value. timetoidoleconds The idle time in seconds. Used if a cfcache tag does not specify an idleTime attribute. timetolivesecond The timeout time in seconds. Used if a cfcache tag does not specify a timespan attribute.
