IAssetCache (Mibo)

IAssetCache Type

Namespace: Mibo.Elmish
Assembly: Mibo.Core.dll
Base Type: obj
All Interfaces: IAssetCache

Backend-neutral generic asset cache: stores arbitrary user-created assets by string key, with create-or-get semantics.

This is the shareable subset of asset caching. Backend-specific asset services (e.g. raylib's IAssets) extend this interface to add typed loaders that return native GPU/resource handles (Texture2D, Font, Sound, etc.), which are inherently backend-specific.

Example

 /// Each backend registers its own IAssets (which inherits IAssetCache)
 /// under the IAssets key, so resolve via the backend's IAssets type:
 let cache = GameContext.getService<IAssets> ctx
 let config = cache.GetOrCreate("gameConfig", fun () -> loadConfig())

val cache: obj
Each backend registers its own IAssets (which inherits IAssetCache)
under the IAssets key, so resolve via the backend's IAssets type:

val config: obj

Instance members

Instance member	Description
`this.Clear` Full Usage: `this.Clear` Modifiers: abstract	Clears all caches (does not dispose GPU resources).
`this.Create` Full Usage: `this.Create` Parameters: key : `string` factory : `unit -> 'T` Returns: `'T` Modifiers: abstract Type parameters: 'T	Creates and caches a custom asset using the provided factory. key : `string` factory : `unit -> 'T` Returns: `'T`
`this.Dispose` Full Usage: `this.Dispose` Modifiers: abstract	Disposes all cached assets and clears caches.
`this.Get` Full Usage: `this.Get` Parameters: key : `string` Returns: `'T voption` Modifiers: abstract Type parameters: 'T	Gets a previously created custom asset by key. key : `string` Returns: `'T voption`
`this.GetOrCreate` Full Usage: `this.GetOrCreate` Parameters: key : `string` factory : `unit -> 'T` Returns: `'T` Modifiers: abstract Type parameters: 'T	Gets a cached asset or creates it if not present. This is the preferred method for custom assets - idempotent, ensures assets are created only once. key : `string` factory : `unit -> 'T` Returns: `'T`
