Cache

A GCache allows sharing of complex data structures, in order to save system resources.

GCache uses keys and values. A GCache key describes the properties of a particular resource. A GCache value is the actual resource.

GCache has been marked as deprecated, since this API is rarely used and not very actively maintained.

class Cache {

protected

GCache* gCache;

GCache* getCacheStruct();

void* getStruct();

this(GCache* gCache);

this(GCacheNewFunc valueNewFunc, GCacheDestroyFunc valueDestroyFunc, GCacheDupFunc keyDupFunc, GCacheDestroyFunc keyDestroyFunc, GHashFunc hashKeyFunc, GHashFunc hashValueFunc, GEqualFunc keyEqualFunc);

void* insert(void* key);

void remove(void* value);

void destroy();

void keyForeach(GHFunc func, void* userData);

void valueForeach(GHFunc func, void* userData);

}

Constructors

this this(GCache* gCache): Sets our main struct and passes it to the parent class
this this(GCacheNewFunc valueNewFunc, GCacheDestroyFunc valueDestroyFunc, GCacheDupFunc keyDupFunc, GCacheDestroyFunc keyDestroyFunc, GHashFunc hashKeyFunc, GHashFunc hashValueFunc, GEqualFunc keyEqualFunc): Warning g_cache_new has been deprecated since version 2.32 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use a GHashTable instead Creates a new GCache.

destroy void destroy(): Warning g_cache_destroy has been deprecated since version 2.32 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use a GHashTable instead Frees the memory allocated for the GCache. Note that it does not destroy the keys and values which were contained in the GCache.
getCacheStruct GCache* getCacheStruct(): Get the main Gtk struct
getStruct void* getStruct(): the main Gtk struct as a void*
insert void* insert(void* key): Warning g_cache_insert has been deprecated since version 2.32 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use a GHashTable instead Gets the value corresponding to the given key, creating it if necessary. It first checks if the value already exists in the GCache, by using the key_equal_func function passed to g_cache_new(). If it does already exist it is returned, and its reference count is increased by one. If the value does not currently exist, if is created by calling the value_new_func. The key is duplicated by calling key_dup_func and the duplicated key and value are inserted into the GCache.
keyForeach void keyForeach(GHFunc func, void* userData): Warning g_cache_key_foreach has been deprecated since version 2.32 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use a GHashTable instead Calls the given function for each of the keys in the GCache. NOTE func is passed three parameters, the value and key of a cache entry and the user_data. The order of value and key is different from the order in which g_hash_table_foreach() passes key-value pairs to its callback function !
remove void remove(void* value): Warning g_cache_remove has been deprecated since version 2.32 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use a GHashTable instead Decreases the reference count of the given value. If it drops to 0 then the value and its corresponding key are destroyed, using the value_destroy_func and key_destroy_func passed to g_cache_new().
valueForeach void valueForeach(GHFunc func, void* userData): Warning g_cache_value_foreach has been deprecated since version 2.10 and should not be used in newly-written code. The reason is that it passes pointers to internal data structures to func; use g_cache_key_foreach() instead Calls the given function for each of the values in the GCache.
