Class AllTypesCache

java.lang.Object
org.eclipse.cdt.core.browser.AllTypesCache

public class AllTypesCache extends Object
Manages a search cache for types in the workspace. Instead of returning objects of type ICElement the methods of this class returns a list of the lightweight objects ITypeInfo.

AllTypesCache runs asynchronously using a background job to rebuild the cache as needed. If the cache becomes dirty again while the background job is running, the job is restarted.

If getTypes is called in response to a user action, a progress dialog is shown. If called before the background job has finished, getTypes waits for the completion of the background job.
