How to cache a component in D7?

Question

1C-Bitrix

What function has come to replace "$this->startResultCache()" for component caching in D7? I'm writing component code in class.php and the above function refuses to be cached. Maybe I'm misunderstanding something?

if ($this->startResultCache())
    $this->arResult[...] = ...

Perhaps you forgot to write extends \CBitrixComponent in the class. But in general, you can always use "cleaner" caching through \Bitrix\Main\Data\Cache and tagged cache.
