How to draw images without them being cached

[marc2332]

Hey!

I have been rendering images and I think they have been leaking memory because they get cached. Here is some code of how I do it:

let pic = Image::from_encoded(unsafe { Data::new_bytes(bytes) });
if let Some(pic) = pic {
    let mut paint = Paint::default();
    paint.set_anti_alias(true);
    canvas.draw_image_nine(
        pic,
        IRect::new(0, 0, 0, 0),
        Rect::new(area.min_x(), area.min_y(), area.max_x(), area.max_y()),
        FilterMode::Last,
        Some(&paint),
    );
}

I have seen some mentions of a CachingHint but I can't figure out how to pass it

hey @tronical, sorry for pinging but I thought you might have not seen this

omg, I didn't mean to ping you ! I wanted to ping @pragmatrix, I hate GitHub's autocomplete sometimes... Sorry!

Let me try with new_copy though

It seems to behave exactly the same with new_copy

Hey Marc, I am not sure, but may be the images get cached in the resource cache, the skia_safe::graphics::resource_cache* functions may help, and there you can set limits, too.

That seems to be it! Thanks @pragmatrix 😄 Good afternoon ✌️
