cacheView

public boolean cacheView(ECPSWTView ecpView)

Description copied from interface: DetailViewCache

Caches the provided ECPSWTView to allow it to be reused later, if there is room for it the cache.

Note that a view is cached when it is no longer required, usually because another detail view is taking its place in the editor. Consequently, if the cache is size-limited and cannot actually cache the view, it must dispose that view.

Specified by:

cacheView in interface DetailViewCache

Parameters:

ecpView - the ECPSWTView to cache

Returns:

true if the view was added to the cache; false otherwise (in which case it would be disposed)

clear

public void clear()

Description copied from interface: DetailViewCache

Dispose all cached views, emptying the cache. The cache must still be in a state to be used (this is not a "dispose" operation).

Specified by:

clear in interface DetailViewCache
