Detailed Description

This class is responsible for keeping cache of rendered images resulting from a map rendering job.

Once a job has a rendered image stored in the cache (using setCacheImage(...)), the cache listens to repaintRequested() signals from dependent layers. If triggered, the cache removes the rendered image (and disconnects from the layers).

When user pans/zooms the canvas, the cache is also used in rendering period for particular layers between the first render update and the moment the layer actually has partially rendered something in the resulting image.

The class is thread-safe (multiple classes can access the same instance safely).

Member Function Documentation

◆ cacheImage()

QImage QgsMapRendererCache::cacheImage ( const QString &  cacheKey) const

Returns the cached image for the specified cacheKey.

The cacheKey usually matches the QgsMapLayer::id() which the image is a render of. Returns a null image if it is not cached.

setCacheImage()
hasCacheImage()

Definition at line 212 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ clear()

void QgsMapRendererCache::clear ( )

Invalidates the cache contents, clearing all cached images.

See also
clearCacheImage()

Definition at line 30 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ clearCacheImage()

void QgsMapRendererCache::clearCacheImage ( const QString &  cacheKey)

Removes an image from the cache with matching cacheKey.

See also
clear()

Definition at line 309 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ dependentLayers()

QList< QgsMapLayer * > QgsMapRendererCache::dependentLayers ( const QString &  cacheKey) const

Returns a list of map layers on which an image in the cache depends.

Definition at line 270 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ hasAnyCacheImage()

bool QgsMapRendererCache::hasAnyCacheImage ( const QString &  cacheKey,
double  minimumScaleThreshold = 0,
double  maximumScaleThreshold = 0 
) const

Returns true if the cache contains an image with the specified cacheKey with any cache's parameters (extent and scale)

The optional minimumScaleThreshold and maximumScaleThreshold arguments can be used to specify a range of acceptable cached scales vs current cache scale parameter. E.g. if the minimumScaleThreshold is 0.5 and maximumScaleThreshold is 2.0, then only cached images with a scale between 0.5 * current cache scale and 2.0 * current cache scale will be considered.

QGIS 3.18

Definition at line 191 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ hasCacheImage()

bool QgsMapRendererCache::hasCacheImage ( const QString &  cacheKey) const

Returns true if the cache contains an image with the specified cacheKey that has the same extent and scale as the cache's global extent and scale.

See also
cacheImage()

Definition at line 174 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ init()

bool QgsMapRendererCache::init ( const QgsRectangle extent,
double  scale 
)

Initialize cache: sets extent and scale parameters and clears the cache if any parameters have changed since last initialization.

Returns
flag whether the parameters are the same as last time
Deprecated:
since QGIS 3.18 - will be removed in QGIS 4.0. Use the updateParameters() and clear()

Definition at line 86 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ invalidateCacheForLayer()

void QgsMapRendererCache::invalidateCacheForLayer ( QgsMapLayer layer)

Invalidates cached images which relate to the specified map layer.

Since
QGIS 3.14

Definition at line 287 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ setCacheImage()

void QgsMapRendererCache::setCacheImage ( const QString &  cacheKey,
const QImage &  image,
const QList< QgsMapLayer * > &  dependentLayers = QList< QgsMapLayer * >() 
)

Set the cached image for a particular cacheKey, using the current cache parameters.

The cacheKey usually matches the QgsMapLayer::id() which the image is a render of.

A list of dependentLayers should be passed containing all layer on which this cache image is dependent. If any of these layers triggers a repaint then the cache image will be cleared.

setCacheImageWithParameters()
cacheImage()

Definition at line 123 of file qgsmaprenderercache.cpp.

◆ setCacheImageWithParameters()

void QgsMapRendererCache::setCacheImageWithParameters ( const QString &  cacheKey,
const QImage &  image,
const QgsRectangle extent,
const QgsMapToPixel mapToPixel,
const QList< QgsMapLayer * > &  dependentLayers = QList< QgsMapLayer * >() 
)

Set the cached image for a particular cacheKey, using a specific extent and mapToPixel (which may differ from the current cache parameters).

The cacheKey usually matches the QgsMapLayer::id() which the image is a render of.

A list of dependentLayers should be passed containing all layer on which this cache image is dependent. If any of these layers triggers a repaint then the cache image will be cleared.

◆ transformedCacheImage()

QImage QgsMapRendererCache::transformedCacheImage ( const QString &  cacheKey,
const QgsMapToPixel mtp 
) const

Returns the cached image for the specified cacheKey transformed to the particular extent and scale.

The cacheKey usually matches the QgsMapLayer::id() which the image is a render of. Returns a null image if it is not cached.

hasAnyCacheImage()

◆ updateParameters()

bool QgsMapRendererCache::updateParameters ( const QgsRectangle extent,
const QgsMapToPixel mtp 
)

Sets extent and scale parameters.

Returns
flag whether the parameters are the same as last time
