40 * @short_description: caches allow sharing of complex data structures
41 * to save resources
43 * A #GCache allows sharing of complex data structures, in order to
44 * save system resources.
46 * GCache uses keys and values. A GCache key describes the properties
47 * of a particular resource. A GCache value is the actual resource.
49 * GCache has been marked as deprecated, since this API is rarely
50 * used and not very actively maintained.

112 * @value_destroy_func: a function to destroy an object. It is called

116 * @key_dup_func: a function to copy a key. It is called by

118 * the #GCache
119 * @key_destroy_func: a function to destroy a key. It is called by
120 * g_cache_remove() when the object is no longer
121 * needed (i.e. its reference count drops to 0)
122 * @hash_key_func: a function to create a hash value from a key
123 * @hash_value_func: a function to create a hash value from a value
124 * @key_equal_func: a function to compare two keys. It should return
125 * %TRUE if the two keys are equivalent
127 * Creates a new #GCache.
129 * Returns: a new #GCache
131 * Deprecated:2.32: Use a #GHashTable instead
135 * GCacheNewFunc:
136 * @key: a #GCache key
138 * Specifies the type of the @value_new_func function passed to
139 * g_cache_new(). It is passed a #GCache key and should create the
140 * value corresponding to the key.
142 * Returns: a new #GCache value corresponding to the key.
146 * GCacheDestroyFunc:
147 * @value: the #GCache value to destroy
149 * Specifies the type of the @value_destroy_func and @key_destroy_func
150 * functions passed to g_cache_new(). The functions are passed a
151 * pointer to the #GCache key or #GCache value and should free any
152 * memory and other resources associated with it.
156 * GCacheDupFunc:
157 * @value: the #GCache key to destroy (__not__ a
158 * #GCache value as it seems)
160 * Specifies the type of the @key_dup_func function passed to
161 * g_cache_new(). The function is passed a key
162 * (__not__ a value as the prototype implies) and
163 * should return a duplicate of the key.
