33 /* The region cache.
35 We want something that maps character positions in a buffer onto
36 values. The representation should deal well with long runs of
37 characters with the same value.
39 The tricky part: the representation should be very cheap to
40 maintain in the presence of many insertions and deletions. If the
41 overhead of maintaining the cache is too high, the speedups it
42 offers will be worthless.
45 We represent the region cache as a sorted array of struct
46 boundary's, each of which contains a buffer position and a value;
47 the value applies to all the characters after the buffer position,
48 until the position of the next boundary, or the end of the buffer.
50 The cache always has a boundary whose position is BUF_BEG, so
51 there's always a value associated with every character in the
52 buffer. Since the cache is sorted, this is always the first
53 element of the cache.
55 To facilitate the insertion and deletion of boundaries in the
56 cache, the cache has a gap, just like Emacs's text buffers do.
58 To help boundary positions float along with insertions and
59 deletions, all boundary positions before the cache gap are stored
60 relative to BUF_BEG (buf) (thus they're >= 0), and all boundary
61 positions after the gap are stored relative to BUF_Z (buf) (thus
62 they're <= 0). Look at BOUNDARY_POS to see this in action. See
63 revalidate_region_cache to see how this helps. */
