Define a template + instance TQIntCache\<X\> to create a cache that operates on + pointers to X, or X*. + + A cache is a least recently used (LRU) list of cache items, + accessed via \c long keys. Each cache item has a cost. The sum + of item costs, totalCost(), will not exceed the maximum cache + cost, maxCost(). 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. + + Apart from insert(), by far the most important function is find() + (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. + + There are also methods to remove() or take() an object from the + cache. Calling setAutoDelete(TRUE) for a cache tells it to delete + items that are removed. The default is to not delete items when + they are removed (i.e. remove() and take() are equivalent). + + 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. insert() calls the virtual + function TQPtrCollection::newItem() for the item to be inserted. + Inherit a dictionary and reimplement newItem() if you want deep + copies. + + When removing a cache item, the item will be automatically + deleted if auto-deletion is enabled. + + There is a TQIntCacheIterator which may be used to traverse the + items in the cache in arbitrary order. + + \sa TQIntCacheIterator, TQCache, TQAsciiCache +*/ + +/*! + \fn TQIntCache::TQIntCache( const TQIntCache<type> &c ) + + \internal + + Do not use.
