| ------------------------- |
| GIO module cache creation |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| SYNOPSIS |
| -------- |
| |
| | **gio-querymodules** *DIRECTORY*… |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| ----------- |
| |
| ``gio-querymodules`` creates a ``giomodule.cache`` file in the listed |
| directories. This file lists the implemented extension points for each module |
| that has been found. It is used by GIO at runtime to avoid opening all modules |
| just to find out which extension points they are implementing. |
| |
| GIO modules are usually installed in the ``gio/modules`` subdirectory of libdir. |
