36 *
37 * A cache item is a structure holding information about a data object including
38 * a reference count that is used to control its lifetime. When you get a
39 * a cache item from the cache, you hold a reference that prevents the data
40 * from being released when the cache is full and something new is added.
41 * When you close the cache item, the reference count is decremented.
42 * The data object is destroyed when all cache items are closed and the cache
43 * releases its reference.

56 /** \brief Cache class
57 *
58 * This is a utility class for implementing a Least Recently Used (LRU) cache
59 * of data blobs indexed by the address of some other object (e.g., a service).
60 * Instead of sorting and manipulating linked lists, it tries to be simple and
61 * elegant by copying pointers between two arrays of fixed size to shuffle the
62 * order of elements.
63 *
64 * This class is useful if you have a service that wants to cache something
65 * somewhat large, but will not scale if there are many instances of the service.
66 * Of course, the service will need to know how to recreate the cached element
67 * if it gets flushed from the cache,
68 *
69 * The most obvious examples are the pixbuf and qimage producers that cache their
70 * respective objects representing a picture read from a file. If the picture
71 * is no longer in the cache, it can simply re-read it from file. However, a
72 * picture is often repeated over many frames and makes sense to cache instead
73 * of continually reading, parsing, and decoding. On the other hand, you might
74 * want to load hundreds of pictures as individual producers, which would use
75 * a lot of memory if every picture is held in memory!
