DateAdded Attribute in exp-1


Issue raised by: Lim You Jin; Mon, 2 Dec 1996 12:42:50 +0900


Synopsis:
What is the meaning of "DateAdded, DateChanged, DateExpires" in the exp-1 (Explain) attribute set.

Response:
These attributes correspond to elements in the CommonInfo for every Explain record, respectively, dateAdded, dateChanged, and expiryDate. These elements pertain to the Explain record itself: when it was first added to the Explain database, when it was last updated, and when it should be thrown away from any caches.

See 3.2.10.1 for some discussion about how these attributes are meant to be used by applications.
