symfony 1.4 clear cache

Question

I want to add a directory in /cache. ie /cache/custom and if I run command:

./symfony clear:cache

All files in custom directory gets deleted. I don't want these files deleted even if I run ./symfony cc. Any solution?

Answer 1

The cache directory has a different purpose. You should not write your custom files to folders like cache, logs, components, vendor because they are overridden while running some commands or while running the application.
