使用 Microsoft Enterprise Library 中的CacheHandler，您可以轻松实现此目标。例如：
[CacheHandler(0, 30, 0)]
public Object GetData(Object input)
{
}
会使得该方法的所有调用缓存30分钟。每个调用都基于输入数据和方法名称获得一个唯一的缓存键，因此如果您使用不同的输入两次调用该方法，则不会被缓存，但是如果您在超时间隔内使用相同的输入多次调用它，则该方法仅执行一次。
我已经对Microsoft的代码进行了一些额外的功能添加：

微软应该对这段代码负主要责任。我们只是添加了一些东西，例如缓存请求级别而不是跨请求级别（比您想象的更有用），并修复了一些错误（例如将相等的DateTime对象序列化为不同的值）。
要做到你所描述的，即编写
public class MyClass {
[Cache, timeToLive=60]
string getName(string id, string location){
return ExpensiveCall(id, location);
}
}
// ...
MyClass c = new MyClass();
string name = c.getName("id", "location");
string name_again = c.getName("id", "location");
如果你想要只调用一次昂贵的函数，而且不需要用其他代码包装类（例如：CacheHandler<MyClass> c = new CacheHandler<MyClass>(new MyClass());），那么你需要研究面向切面编程框架。这些框架通常通过重写字节码来工作，因此您需要在编译过程中添加另一个步骤，但是您可以在此过程中获得很多优势。有许多AOP框架，但.NET的PostSharp和AspectJ是最受欢迎的。您可以轻松地搜索如何使用它们来添加所需的缓存方面。
