Clear propel cache (instance pool)

Question

I need to force reread data from DB within one php execution, using propel. I already have a bit hacky solution: call init%modelName% for corresponding classes, but want something better.

Is there any single call or service config option for that? Like killing whole instance pool.

About service: we use symfony2 and don't need cache only in one specific case, hence we can create even separate environment for that.

Answer 1

You can globally disable the instance pooling by calling: Propel::disableInstancePooling() (Propel::enableInstancePooling() is useful to enable the instance pooling).

Otherwise, you can rely on PEER classes which contain generated methods like clearInstancePool(), and clearRelatedInstancePool().
