Constructor Methods

User Comments


create

EPrints::DataObj::CitationCache::create( $session, $data );

Create a new citationcache object from supplied $data. Unlike other create methods this one does not return the new object as it's never needed, and would increase the load on modifying items.

Also, this does not queue the fields for indexing.
