How is it actually read from disk then? Looking at the code... the only time it is actually read from disk is in IconDatabase::readFromDatabase and even then it only reads in icons that are flagged in m_iconsPendingReading. And when grepping the code the only time I see that an icon is inserted into m_iconsPendingReading is when iconForPageUrl is called?? > At that point, the client can call iconForPageURL to get the icon. > > If the icon is no longer needed, the client should call > releaseIconForPageURL. > > -- Darin _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
