Storing files in cache

Hello,

I have a maxmind GeoIP database. They give it to you in a .dat file. They also give you a wrapper class where you specify the .dat location.

What I would like to do is store this .dat file in cache using memcache. Memcache let's you store objects, strings, numbers, etc. in cache...

I'm wondering if anyone would know how I would store a .dat file in cache? I could imagine doing a file_get_contents on it and storing that into cache, but then how would I specify the location for the dat file?
