11 [--validate] {iconpath}
12
14 gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 creates mmap()able cache files for icon
15 themes.
16
17 It expects to be given the path to a icon theme directory containing an
18 index.theme, e.g. /usr/share/icons/hicolor, and writes a
19 icon-theme.cache containing cached information about the icons in the
20 directory tree below the given directory.
21
22 GTK+ can use the cache files created by gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 to
23 avoid a lot of system call and disk seek overhead when the application
24 starts. Since the format of the cache files allows them to be mmap()ed
25 shared between multiple applications, the overall memory consumption is
26 reduced as well.
27
29 --force, -f
30 Overwrite an existing cache file even if it appears to be uptodate.
31
32 --ignore-theme-index, -t
33 Don´t check for the existence of ´index.theme´ in the icon theme
34 directory. Without this option, gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 refuses
35 to create an icon cache in a directory which does not appear to be
36 the toplevel directory of an icon theme.
37
38 --index-only, -i
39 Don´t include image data in the cache.
40
41 --source, -c
42 Output a C header file declaring a constant name with the contents
43 of the icon cache.
44
45 --quiet, -q
46 Turn off verbose output.
47
48 --validate, -v
49 Validate existing icon cache.
