=head1 NAME

Cache::AgainstFile::Null - backend for Cache::AgainstFile to disable caching

=head1 SYNOPSIS

	my $cache = new Cache::AgainstFile(
		\&loader,
		{
			Method => 'Null',
			...
		}
	);

	$data = $cache->get($filename);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This implementation simply calls the cache loader each time get() is called, thus no caching is done.
It is useful for testing when you want to quickly disable caching by flipping the Method passed to Cache::AgainstFile.

=head1 OPTIONS

There are no additional options for this backend
