<div class="descr">
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The Q3AsciiCache class is a template class that provides a cache based on char* keys.</p>
<p>Q3AsciiCache is implemented as a template class. Define a template instance Q3AsciiCache<X> to create a cache that operates on pointers to X (X*).</p>
<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="q3cache.html">Q3Cache</a> template instead, which uses <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> keys. A <a href="q3cache.html">Q3Cache</a> has the same performace as a Q3AsciiCache.</p>
<p>Each cache item has a cost. The sum of item costs, <a href="q3asciicache.html#totalCost">totalCost</a>(), will not exceed the maximum cache cost, <a href="q3asciicache.html#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>
<p>Apart from <a href="q3asciicache.html#insert">insert</a>(), by far the most important function is <a href="q3asciicache.html#find">find</a>() (which also exists as operator[]()). This function looks up an item, returns it, and by default marks it as being the most recently used item.</p>
<p>There are also methods to <a href="q3asciicache.html#remove">remove</a>() or <a href="q3asciicache.html#take">take</a>() an object from the cache. Calling <a href="q3ptrcollection.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., <a href="q3asciicache.html#remove">remove</a>() and <a href="q3asciicache.html#take">take</a>() are equivalent).</p>
<p>When inserting an item into the cache, only the pointer is copied, not the item itself. This is called a shallow copy. It is possible to make the cache copy all of the item's data (known as a deep copy) when an item is inserted. <a href="q3asciicache.html#insert">insert</a>() calls the virtual function <a href="q3ptrcollection.html#newItem">Q3PtrCollection::newItem</a>() for the item to be inserted. Inherit a cache and reimplement <a href="q3ptrcollection.html#newItem">newItem</a>() if you want deep copies.</p>
<p>When removing a cache item the virtual function <a href="q3ptrcollection.html#deleteItem">Q3PtrCollection::deleteItem</a>() is called. Its default implementation in Q3AsciiCache is to delete the item if <a href="q3ptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">auto-deletion</a> is enabled.</p>
<p>There is a <a href="q3asciicacheiterator.html">Q3AsciiCacheIterator</a> which may be used to traverse the items in the cache in arbitrary order.</p>

<h3 class="fn"><a name="Q3AsciiCache"></a>Q3AsciiCache::<span class="name">Q3AsciiCache</span> ( <span class="type">int</span> <i>maxCost</i> = 100, <span class="type">int</span> <i>size</i> = 17, <span class="type">bool</span> <i>caseSensitive</i> = true, <span class="type">bool</span> <i>copyKeys</i> = true )</h3>
<p>Constructs a cache whose contents will never have a total cost greater than <i>maxCost</i> and which is expected to contain less than <i>size</i> items.</p>
<p><i>size</i> is actually the size of an internal hash array; it's usually best to make it prime and at least 50% bigger than the largest expected number of items in the cache.</p>
<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 <i>maxCost</i>, 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>
<p>If <i>caseSensitive</i> 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 <i>copyKeys</i> is TRUE (the default), <a href="q3asciicache.html" class="compat">Q3AsciiCache</a> 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.</p>

<p>Inserts the item <i>d</i> into the cache using key <i>k</i>, and with an associated cost of <i>c</i>. Returns TRUE if the item is successfully inserted. Returns FALSE if the item is not inserted, for example, if the cost of the item exceeds <a href="q3asciicache.html#maxCost">maxCost</a>().</p>
<p>The cache's size is limited, and if the total cost is too high, <a href="q3asciicache.html" class="compat">Q3AsciiCache</a> will remove old, least recently used items until there is room for this new item.</p>
<p>Items with duplicate keys can be inserted.</p>
<p>The parameter <i>p</i> is internal and should be left at the default value (0).</p>
<p><b>Warning:</b> If this function returns FALSE, you must delete <i>d</i> yourself. Additionally, be very careful about using <i>d</i> after calling this function, because any other insertions into the cache, from anywhere in the application or within Qt itself, could cause the object to be discarded from the cache and the pointer to become invalid.</p>
