[New-bugs-announce] [issue30153] lru_cache should support invalidations

[Jesús Cea Avión]

New submission from Jesús Cea Avión:

I think that "functools.lru_cache()" should have the ability to "invalidate" a (possibly cached) value. Something like:

@functools.lru_cache()
def func(param):
  ...

func.invalidate(PARAM) # discard this cached call, or ignore if not cached
