cache.validate
Re-inserts an instance into the cache so future lookups reuse the same userdata.
Syntax
cache.validate(instance: Instance) -> nil
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
instance | Instance | The Instance to read from or modify. |
Returns
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
nil | This function does not return a value. |
Description
cache.validate is part of the Cache library. The module keeps a stable instance cache so userdata survives Roblox object churn. Cache calls inspect or change that mapping without modifying the game object itself.
The operation is performed immediately using the arguments supplied at the call site.
Example
local part = Instance.new("Part")
cache.invalidate(part)
print(cache.iscached(part))
cache.validate(part)
print(cache.iscached(part))
Notes
- Cache changes affect future lookups; existing userdata references remain valid.
