Function Documentation

void elm_cache_all_flush ( void  )

Flush all caches.

Frees all data that was in cache and is not currently being used to reduce memory usage. This frees Edje's, Evas' and Eet's cache. This is equivalent to calling all of the following functions:

  • edje_file_cache_flush()
  • edje_collection_cache_flush()
  • eet_clearcache()
  • evas_image_cache_flush()
  • evas_font_cache_flush()
  • evas_render_dump()
    Note
    Evas caches are flushed for every canvas associated with a window.
EINA_DEPRECATED void elm_cache_flush_enabled_all_set ( Eina_Bool  enabled)

Set the configured cache flush enabled state for all applications on the display.

This sets the globally configured cache flush enabled state for all applications on the display.

Parameters
enabledThe cache flush enabled state
Deprecated:
Use elm_cache_flush_enabled_set adnd elm_config_all_flush()
EINA_DEPRECATED void elm_cache_flush_interval_all_set ( int  size)

Set the configured cache flush interval time for all applications on the display.

This sets the globally configured cache flush interval time – in ticks – for all applications on the display.

Parameters
sizeThe cache flush interval time
Deprecated:
Use elm_cache_flush_interval_set() and elm_config_all_flush()
int elm_config_cache_edje_collection_cache_size_get ( void  )

Get the configured edje collections (groups) cache size.

This gets the globally configured edje collections cache size, in number of collections.

Returns
The edje collections cache size
void elm_config_cache_edje_collection_cache_size_set ( int  size)

Set the configured edje collections (groups) cache size.

This sets the globally configured edje collections cache size, in number of collections.

Parameters
sizeThe edje collections cache size
int elm_config_cache_edje_file_cache_size_get ( void  )

Get the configured edje file cache size.

This gets the globally configured edje file cache size, in number of files.

Returns
The edje file cache size
void elm_config_cache_edje_file_cache_size_set ( int  size)

Set the configured edje file cache size.

This sets the globally configured edje file cache size, in number of files.

Parameters
sizeThe edje file cache size
Eina_Bool elm_config_cache_flush_enabled_get ( void  )

Get the configured cache flush enabled state.

This gets the globally configured cache flush state - if it is enabled or not. When cache flushing is enabled, elementary will regularly (see elm_config_cache_flush_interval_get() ) flush caches and dump data out of memory and allow usage to re-seed caches and data in memory where it can do so. An idle application will thus minimize its memory usage as data will be freed from memory and not be re-loaded as it is idle and not rendering or doing anything graphically right now.

Returns
The cache flush state
See also
elm_cache_all_flush()
void elm_config_cache_flush_enabled_set ( Eina_Bool  enabled)

Set the configured cache flush enabled state.

This sets the globally configured cache flush enabled state.

Parameters
enabledThe cache flush enabled state
See also
elm_cache_all_flush()
int elm_config_cache_flush_interval_get ( void  )

Get the configured cache flush interval time.

This gets the globally configured cache flush interval time, in ticks

Returns
The cache flush interval time
See also
elm_cache_all_flush()
void elm_config_cache_flush_interval_set ( int  size)

Set the configured cache flush interval time.

This sets the globally configured cache flush interval time, in ticks

Parameters
sizeThe cache flush interval time
Note
The size must be greater than 0. if not, the cache flush will be ignored.
