fcdirsave

FcDirSave(3)															      FcDirSave(3)

NAME

       FcDirSave - DEPRECATED: formerly used to save a directory cache

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lfontconfig [ library... ]

       #include <fontconfig.h>

       FcBool FcDirSave (FcFontSet *set, FcStrSet *dirs, const FcChar8 *dir);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function now does nothing aside from returning FcFalse. It used to creates the per-directory cache file for dir and populates it with
       the fonts in set and subdirectories in dirs. All of this functionality is now automatically managed by FcDirCacheLoad and FcDirCacheRead.

VERSION

       Fontconfig version 2.5.0
