Smarty

[wantho]

I recently had a slight problem which I solved by commenting out 1 line of code from my setup.php.

parent::__construct();
$this->setTemplateDir($path.'/myapp/templates/');
$this->setCompileDir($path.'/myapp/templates_c/');
$this->setConfigDir($path.'/myapp/configs/');
$this->setCacheDir($path.'/myapp/cache/');
//$this->caching = Smarty::CACHING_LIFETIME_CURRENT;
$this->assign('app_name', 'Store Book');

This line in question, uncommented, prevented me from repeating a string search through an associative array by returning the cached result from the first search.

Is the caching neccessary, if so how should the code be presented to not allow a lifetime caching.
