Operating system cache file processing method

Abstract

The invention provides an operating system cache file processing method. The method comprises the steps that: a framework layer of an operating system obtains identity information of an application program and a file directory obtained after decompression of an installation package in the installation process; when the application program is started to run for the first time, the application program calls a file operation interface of the framework layer, and file information of a cache file generated in the running process is transmitted to the framework layer through the file operation interface; a file system of the operating system generates corresponding files and folders at corresponding positions under the file directory, the cache files are stored in the generated folders, and a data recording table corresponding to the identity information is generated; and when the application program carries out preset processing on the cache file, the frame layer determines a to-be-processed file or a folder according to the data record table, carries out preset processing on the to-be-processed file or the folder, and updates the data record table. The method can reduce mistaken deletion and has flexibility.

Description

technical field [0001] One or more embodiments of this specification relate to the technical field of operating systems, and in particular, to a method for processing cache files of an operating system. Background technique [0002] Since the middle and late 20th century, with the rapid development of computer technology, from electron tubes to VLSI, the computing speed has been greatly improved, and the volume has become smaller and smaller. By the end of the 20th century, personal computer terminals were popularized. like figure 2 As shown, computer scientists invented the operating system that runs on computers in order to make people interact better with computers and make it more convenient for ordinary people to use computer terminals. Thanks to the rapid development of the Internet, users install more and more application software, and cache files such as cache logs generated during software installation and use will occupy a large amount of ROM storage space of smar...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

One is: to identify cache files with suffixes (for example, files with suffixes such as log) and folders similar to cache. This method has low recognition accuracy, cannot be cleaned up, and may also cause problems such as accidental deletion; One is: technicians analyze the folder structure of some mainstream applications, manually identify the cached files and store the file path to the cloud, and the cleaning software obtains the cached file path from the cloud when performing cleaning and detects the local file system according to the file path. cleanup operation

This method can accurately locate the cache file, but it has great limitations and is limited to mainstream applications, and as the program is upgraded, the folder structure under the application may change, so this method has great limitations and is not flexible
