## NAME

XtAppReleaseCacheRefs - decrement reference counts for resources

\#include \<X11/Intrinsic.h\>

void XtAppReleaseCacheRefs(XtAppContext *app\_context*, XtCacheRef\* *refs*);

## ARGUMENTS

- *app\_context*

  Specifies the application context.

- *refs*

  Specifies the list of cache references to be released.

## DESCRIPTION

**XtAppReleaseCacheRefs** decrements the reference count for the conversion entries identified by the *refs* argument. This argument is a pointer to a NULL-terminated list of **XtCacheRef** values.
