* How to cache face, size, and glyph data with FreeType~2.
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
*
* @description:
* This section describes the FreeType~2 cache sub-system, which is used
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
* to limit the number of concurrently opened @FT_Face and @FT_Size
* objects, as well as caching information like character maps and glyph
* images while limiting their maximum memory usage.
*
* Note that all types and functions begin with the `FTC_' prefix.
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* The cache is highly portable and thus doesn't know anything about the
* fonts installed on your system, or how to access them. This implies
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
* the following scheme:
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* First, available or installed font faces are uniquely identified by
* @FTC_FaceID values, provided to the cache by the client. Note that
* the cache only stores and compares these values, and doesn't try to
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
* interpret them in any way.
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* Second, the cache calls, only when needed, a client-provided function
* to convert an @FTC_FaceID into a new @FT_Face object. The latter is
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* then completely managed by the cache, including its termination
* through @FT_Done_Face. To monitor termination of face objects, the
* finalizer callback in the `generic' field of the @FT_Face object can
* be used, which might also be used to store the @FTC_FaceID of the
* face.
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* Clients are free to map face IDs to anything else. The most simple
* usage is to associate them to a (pathname,face_index) pair that is
* used to call @FT_New_Face. However, more complex schemes are also
* possible.
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* Note that for the cache to work correctly, the face ID values must be
* *persistent*, which means that the contents they point to should not
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
* change at runtime, or that their value should not become invalid.
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* If this is unavoidable (e.g., when a font is uninstalled at runtime),
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
* you should call @FTC_Manager_RemoveFaceID as soon as possible, to let
* the cache get rid of any references to the old @FTC_FaceID it may
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* keep internally. Failure to do so will lead to incorrect behaviour
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
* or even crashes.
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* To use the cache, start with calling @FTC_Manager_New to create a new
* @FTC_Manager object, which models a single cache instance. You can
* then look up @FT_Face and @FT_Size objects with
* @FTC_Manager_LookupFace and @FTC_Manager_LookupSize, respectively.
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
*
* If you want to use the charmap caching, call @FTC_CMapCache_New, then
* later use @FTC_CMapCache_Lookup to perform the equivalent of
* @FT_Get_Char_Index, only much faster.
*
* If you want to use the @FT_Glyph caching, call @FTC_ImageCache, then
* later use @FTC_ImageCache_Lookup to retrieve the corresponding
* @FT_Glyph objects from the cache.
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* If you need lots of small bitmaps, it is much more memory efficient
* to call @FTC_SBitCache_New followed by @FTC_SBitCache_Lookup. This
* returns @FTC_SBitRec structures, which are used to store small
* bitmaps directly. (A small bitmap is one whose metrics and
* dimensions all fit into 8-bit integers).
2006-04-01 11:14:12 +02:00
*
2006-04-01 20:49:07 +02:00
* We hope to also provide a kerning cache in the near future.
