3.2.8. Using the Cache

ScriptBasic is powerful being able to store the compiled version of BASIC programs in binary format in file. The next piece of code checks if there is already a compiled version of the BASIC program in the configured cache directory calling the function scriba_UseCacheFile()

  if( scriba_UseCacheFile(pProgram) == SCRIBA_ERROR_SUCCESS ){
    if( (iError = scriba_LoadBinaryProgram(pProgram)) != 0 ){
      ERREXIT;
      }

The function scriba_LoadBinaryProgram() loads the binary program.
