cache: Cache method for simList class objects
Description
Because the simList has an environment as one of its slots, the caching mechanism
of the archivist package does not work. Here, we make a slight tweak to the
cache function. Specifically, we remove all elements that have an environment
as part of their attributes. This is generally functions that are loaded from the modules,
but also the .envir slot in the simList. Thus, only non-function objects are
used as part of the digest call in the digest package (used internally in
the cache function).Usage
cache(cacheRepo = NULL, FUN, ..., notOlderThan = NULL)
