33 /**
34 * The StartupCache is a persistent cache of simple key-value pairs,
35 * where the keys are null-terminated c-strings and the values are
36 * arbitrary data, passed as a (char*, size) tuple.
38 * Clients should use the GetSingleton() static method to access the cache. It
39 * will be available from the end of XPCOM init (NS_InitXPCOM3 in
40 * XPCOMInit.cpp), until XPCOM shutdown begins. The GetSingleton() method will
41 * return null if the cache is unavailable. The cache is only provided for
42 * libxul builds -- it will fail to link in non-libxul builds. The XPCOM
43 * interface is provided only to allow compiled-code tests; clients should avoid
44 * using it.
46 * The API provided is very simple: GetBuffer() returns a buffer that was
47 * previously stored in the cache (if any), and PutBuffer() inserts a buffer
48 * into the cache. GetBuffer returns a new buffer, and the caller must take
49 * ownership of it. PutBuffer will assert if the client attempts to insert a
50 * buffer with the same name as an existing entry. The cache makes a copy of the
51 * passed-in buffer, so client retains ownership.
53 * InvalidateCache() may be called if a client suspects data corruption
54 * or wishes to invalidate for any other reason. This will remove all existing
55 * cache data. Additionally, the static method IgnoreDiskCache() can be called
56 * if it is believed that the on-disk cache file is itself corrupt. This call
57 * implicitly calls InvalidateCache (if the singleton has been initialized) to
58 * ensure any data already read from disk is discarded. The cache will not load
59 * data from the disk file until a successful write occurs.
61 * Finally, getDebugObjectOutputStream() allows debug code to wrap an
62 * objectstream with a debug objectstream, to check for multiply-referenced
63 * objects. These will generally fail to deserialize correctly, unless they are
64 * stateless singletons or the client maintains their own object data map for
65 * deserialization.
67 * Writes before the final-ui-startup notification are placed in an intermediate
68 * cache in memory, then written out to disk at a later time, to get writes off
69 * the startup path. In any case, clients should not rely on being able to
70 * GetBuffer() data that is written to the cache, since it may not have been
71 * written to disk or another client may have invalidated the cache. In other
72 * words, it should be used as a cache only, and not a reliable persistent
73 * store.
75 * Some utility functions are provided in StartupCacheUtils. These functions
76 * wrap the buffers into object streams, which may be useful for serializing
77 * objects. Note the above caution about multiply-referenced objects, though --
78 * the streams are just as 'dumb' as the underlying buffers about
79 * multiply-referenced objects. They just provide some convenience in writing
80 * out data.
