Define a template -instance TQAsciiCache<X> to create a cache that operates on -pointers to X (X*). -<p> A cache is a least recently used (LRU) list of cache items. The -cache items are accessed via <tt>char*</tt> keys. For Unicode keys use -the <a href="qcache.html">TQCache</a> template instead, which uses <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a> keys. A TQCache -has the same performace as a TQAsciiCache. -<p> Each cache item has a cost. The sum of item costs, <a href="#totalCost">totalCost</a>(), -will not exceed the maximum cache cost, <a href="#maxCost">maxCost</a>(). If inserting a -new item would cause the total cost to exceed the maximum cost, -the least recently used items in the cache are removed. -<p> Apart from <a href="#insert">insert</a>(), by far the most important function is <a href="#find">find</a>() -(which also exists as <a href="#operator[]">operator[]</a>()). This function looks up an -item, returns it, and by default marks it as being the most -recently used item. -<p> There are also methods to <a href="#remove">remove</a>() or <a href="#take">take</a>() an object from the -cache. Calling <a href="qptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete(TRUE)</a> tells the cache to delete items that -are removed. The default is to not delete items when then are -removed (i.e., remove() and take() are equivalent). -<p> When inserting an item into the cache, only the pointer is copied, -not the item itself. This is called a <a href="shclass.html#shallow-copy">shallow copy</a>. It is possible -to make the cache copy all of the item's data (known as a <a href="shclass.html#deep-copy">deep copy</a>) when an item is inserted. insert() calls the virtual -function <a href="qptrcollection.html#newItem">TQPtrCollection::newItem</a>() for the item to be inserted. -Inherit a cache and reimplement <a href="qptrcollection.html#newItem">newItem</a>() if you want deep copies. -<p> When removing a cache item the virtual function -<a href="qptrcollection.html#deleteItem">TQPtrCollection::deleteItem</a>() is called. Its default implementation -in TQAsciiCache is to delete the item if <a href="qptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">auto-deletion</a> is enabled. -<p> There is a <a href="qasciicacheiterator.html">TQAsciiCacheIterator</a> which may be used to traverse the -items in the cache in arbitrary order. -<p> <p>See also <a href="qasciicacheiterator.html">TQAsciiCacheIterator</a>, <a href="qcache.html">TQCache</a>, <a href="qintcache.html">TQIntCache</a>, <a href="collection.html">Collection Classes</a>, and <a href="tools.html">Non-GUI Classes</a>. - -<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> -<h3 class=fn><a name="TQAsciiCache-2"></a>TQAsciiCache::TQAsciiCache ( int maxCost = 100, int size = 17, bool caseSensitive = TRUE, bool copyKeys = TRUE ) -</h3> - -<p> Constructs a cache whose contents will never have a total cost -greater than <em>maxCost</em> and which is expected to contain less than -<em>size</em> items. -<p> <em>size</em> is actually the size of an internal hash array; it's -usually best to make it <a href="primes.html#prime">prime</a> and at least 50% bigger than the -largest expected number of items in the cache. -<p> Each inserted item has an associated cost. When inserting a new -item, if the total cost of all items in the cache will exceed <em>maxCost</em>, the cache will start throwing out the older (least -recently used) items until there is enough room for the new item -to be inserted. -<p> If <em>caseSensitive</em> is TRUE (the default), the cache keys are case -sensitive; if it is FALSE, they are case-insensitive. -Case-insensitive comparison only affects the 26 letters in -US-ASCII. If <em>copyKeys</em> is TRUE (the default), TQAsciiCache makes -a copy of the cache keys, otherwise it copies just the const char -* pointer - slightly faster if you can guarantee that the keys -will never change, but very risky. - -<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQAsciiCache"></a>TQAsciiCache::~TQAsciiCache () -</h3> - -<p> Removes all items from the cache and destroys it. -All iterators that access this cache will be reset. - -<h3 class=fn>void <a name="clear"></a>TQAsciiCache::clear ()<tt> [virtual]</tt> -</h3> - -<p> Removes all items from the cache, and deletes them if <a href="qptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">auto-deletion</a> has been -enabled. -<p> All cache iterators that operate on this cache are reset. -<p> <p>See also <a href="#remove">remove</a>() and <a href="#take">take</a>(). - -<p>Reimplemented from <a href="qptrcollection.html#clear">TQPtrCollection</a>. -<h3 class=fn>uint <a name="count"></a>TQAsciiCache::count () const<tt> [virtual]</tt> -</h3> - -<p> Returns the number of items in the cache. -<p> <p>See also <a href="#totalCost">totalCost</a>() and <a href="#size">size</a>(). - -<p>Reimplemented from <a href="qptrcollection.html#count">TQPtrCollection</a>. -<h3 class=fn>type * <a name="find"></a>TQAsciiCache::find ( const char * k, bool ref = TRUE ) const -</h3> - -<p> Returns the item with key <em>k</em>, or 0 if the key does not exist -in the cache.
