| javax.media.jai.TileCache
All known Subclasses: com.sun.media.jai.util.SunTileCache,
TileCache | public interface TileCache (Code) | | A class implementing a caching mechanism for image tiles.
TileCache provides a mechanism by which an
OpImage may cache its computed tiles. There may be
multiple TileCache s used in an application up to the
point of having a different TileCache for each
OpImage .
The TileCache used for a particular OpImage
is derived from the RenderingHints assigned to the
associated imaging chain node. If the node is constructed using
JAI.create() and no TileCache is specified
in the RenderingHints parameter, then one is derived
from the RenderingHints associated with the instance of the
JAI class being used.
In the Sun reference implementation, the cache size is limited by
the memory capacity, which is set to a default value at construction
or subsequently using the setMemoryCapacity() method.
The initial value may be obtained using getMemoryCapacity() .
The tile capacity is not used as different images may have very different
tile sizes so that this metric is not a particularly meaningful control
of memory resource consumption in general.

point number that ranges from 0.0 to 1.0.
When the cache memory is full, the memory
usage will be reduced to this fraction of
the total cache memory capacity. | void | setTileCapacity(int tileCapacity) Sets the tile capacity to a desired number of tiles.
If the capacity is smaller than the current capacity,
tiles are flushed from the cache. | void | setTileComparator(Comparator comparator) Sets a Comparator which imposes an order on the

This ordering is used in memoryControl() to determine
the sequence in which tiles will be removed from the
TileCache so as to reduce the memory to the level given
by the memory threshold. |

flush | void flush()(Code) | | Advises the cache that all of its tiles may be discarded. It
is legal to implement this method as a no-op.

getMemoryCapacity | long getMemoryCapacity()(Code) | | Returns the memory capacity in bytes.
|
getMemoryThreshold | float getMemoryThreshold()(Code) | | Returns the memory threshold, which is the fractional
amount of cache memory to retain during tile removal.

getTile | Raster getTile(RenderedImage owner, int tileX, int tileY)(Code) | | Retrieves a tile. Returns null if the tile is not
present in the cache.

getTileCapacity | int getTileCapacity()(Code) | | Returns the tile capacity in tiles. It is legal to
implement this method as a no-op which should be
signaled by returning zero.

the CachedTile s stored by the TileCache .
The tile Comparator or null if theimplementation-dependent ordering algorithm is being used. since: JAI 1.1 |

setMemoryThreshold | void setMemoryThreshold(float memoryThreshold)(Code) | | Sets the memoryThreshold value to a floating
point number that ranges from 0.0 to 1.0.
When the cache memory is full, the memory
usage will be reduced to this fraction of

a value of .75 will cause 25% of the memory
to be cleared, while retaining 75%.

setTileCapacity | void setTileCapacity(int tileCapacity)(Code) | | Sets the tile capacity to a desired number of tiles.
If the capacity is smaller than the current capacity,
tiles are flushed from the cache. It is legal to
implement this method as a no-op.
Parameters: tileCapacity - The new capacity, in tiles. |
setTileComparator | void setTileComparator(Comparator comparator)(Code) | | Sets a Comparator which imposes an order on the
CachedTile s stored in the TileCache .
This ordering is used in memoryControl() to determine
the sequence in which tiles will be removed from the
TileCache so as to reduce the memory to the level given
by the memory threshold. The Object s passed to the
compare() method of the Comparator will
be instances of CachedTile . CachedTile s
will be removed from the TileCache in the ascending
order imposed by this Comparator . If no
Comparator is currently set, the TileCache
should use an implementation-dependent default ordering. In the
Sun Microsystems, Inc., implementation of TileCache ,
this ordering is the least recently used
ordering, i.e., the tiles least recently used will be removed first
by memoryControl() .
Parameters: comparator - A Comparator which orders theCachedTile s stored by the TileCache ;if null an implementation-dependent algorithmwill be used. since: JAI 1.1 |
