Please implement a XcacheClassLoader following the same pattern than the new ApcClassLoader instead

- should include tests
- should include documentation (will you also update the component documentation for this new class?)

@cordoval the PR explains why there is no tests: xcache canot be used in the CLI.

@cordoval My english is really horrible. I would not mind if someone else could do that task for me. We also need to add doc for the new ApcClassLoader.

I wish you can explain me more then about this class and how to use it in code so then I can write easily the documentation :D deal?

Deal :P
The XcacheClassLoader and ApcClassLoader replaces the old ApcUniversalClassLoader.
They giving us support for using another loader then UniversalClassLoader, without duplicating the cache layer.
Aslong it have a public function findFile($class) method.
$loader = new ClassLoader();
// register classes with namespaces
$loader->add('Symfony\Component', __DIR__.'/component');
$loader->add('Symfony', __DIR__.'/framework');
$cachedLoader = new XcacheClassLoader('my_prefix', $loader);
// activate the cached autoloader
$cachedLoader->register();
Think that is more or less the essence of this.

it is not add but registerNamespace right?
so the main idea is to get rid of the restriction to use Apc with Universal loader
what is the comparative advantage between APC and Xcache?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes if the $loader (class finder) were to be a instance UniversalClassLoader.
Yes the main idea is to be able to reuse the cache layer with any class loader there obey to the one restriction.
Difference between apc and xcache and why to use what is coming down to taste and your setup. We use xcache as APC have some issues in fastcgi setups. when we upgrade to php54 at somepoint we get to chance to move to php-fpm wich solves these issues. Short story: Slightly out of scope for any documentation in here :-P
