+ * gdcache.h
+ *
+ * Caches of pointers to user structs in which the least-recently-used
+ * element is replaced in the event of a cache miss after the cache has
+ * reached a given size.
+ *
+ * John Ellson (ellson@graphviz.org) Oct 31, 1997
+ *
+ * Test this with:
+ * gcc -o gdcache -g -Wall -DTEST gdcache.c
+ *
+ * The cache is implemented by a singly-linked list of elements
+ * each containing a pointer to a user struct that is being managed by
+ * the cache.
+ *
+ * The head structure has a pointer to the most-recently-used
+ * element, and elements are moved to this position in the list each
+ * time they are used. The head also contains pointers to three
+ * user defined functions:
+ * - a function to test if a cached userdata matches some keydata
+ * - a function to provide a new userdata struct to the cache
+ * if there has been a cache miss.
+ * - a function to release a userdata struct when it is
+ * no longer being managed by the cache
+ *
+ * In the event of a cache miss the cache is allowed to grow up to
+ * a specified maximum size. After the maximum size is reached then
+ * the least-recently-used element is discarded to make room for the
+ * new. The most-recently-returned value is always left at the
+ * beginning of the list after retrieval.
+ *
+ * In the current implementation the cache is traversed by a linear
+ * search from most-recent to least-recent. This linear search
+ * probably limits the usefulness of this implementation to cache
+ * sizes of a few tens of elements.
