- \class Q3IntCache
- \brief The Q3IntCache class is a template class that provides a cache based on long keys.
- \compat
-
- Q3IntCache is implemented as a template class. Define a template
- instance Q3IntCache\<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 Q3PtrCollection::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 Q3IntCacheIterator which may be used to traverse the
- items in the cache in arbitrary order.

-
-/*!
- \fn Q3IntCache::Q3IntCache( int maxCost, int size )
-
- Constructs a cache whose contents will never have a total cost
- greater than \a maxCost and which is expected to contain less than
- \a size items.
-
- \a size 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.
-
- Each inserted item is associated with a cost. When inserting a new
- item, if the total cost of all items in the cache will exceed \a
- maxCost, the cache will start throwing out the older (least
- recently used) items until there is enough room for the new item
- to be inserted.

-
- The cache's size is limited, and if the total cost is too high,
- Q3IntCache will remove old, least-used items until there is room

-
- The parameter \a p is internal and should be left at the default
- value (0).
-
- \warning If this function returns FALSE (for example, the cost \c,
- exceeds maxCost()), you must delete \a d yourself. Additionally,
- be very careful about using \a d after calling this function. Any
