Description
gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 creates mmap()able cache
files for icon themes.
It expects to be given the path to a icon theme directory containing an
index.theme, e.g. /usr/share/icons/hicolor,
and writes a icon-theme.cache containing cached
information about the icons in the directory tree below the given directory.
GTK+ can use the cache files created by gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0
to avoid a lot of system call and disk seek overhead when the application
starts. Since the format of the cache files allows them to be mmap()ed
shared between multiple applications, the overall memory consumption is
reduced as well.
Options
--force
-f
Overwrite an existing cache file even if it appears to be
uptodate.
--ignore-theme-index
-t
Don't check for the existence of 'index.theme' in the icon
theme directory. Without this option, gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0
refuses to create an icon cache in a directory which does not appear to
be the toplevel directory of an icon theme.
--index-only
-i
Don't include image data in the cache.
--source
-c
Output a C header file declaring a constant
name with the contents of the icon
cache.
--quiet
-q
Turn off verbose output.
--validate
-v
Validate existing icon cache.
