Deprecation notice
==================

[](#deprecation-notice)

This project is not in active development. Issues remain with cache files sometimes being saved with invalid data and unable to be read (see: [issue #3](https://github.com/Wruczek/PHP-File-Cache/issues/3) and [\#4](https://github.com/Wruczek/PHP-File-Cache/issues/4)). The API is confusing and a rewrite would be necessary (for example renaming "retrive" function to "get", "store" to "set" etc.).

A community fork has been created, with authors planning on continuing the devlopment.
