NAME
       gio-querymodules - 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.

   SMF Management and IPS Packaging
       In Oracle Solaris, the transient gio-module-cache service runs
       gio-querymodules when necessary to update the giomodule.cache file with
       information about the installed GIO extension modules. An example of
       when the gio-module-cache service runs is when a package that specifies
       the svc:/application/desktop-cache/gio-module-cache service as the
       value of a restart_fmri attribute on is being installed. A package that
       installs a GIO extension module should have such an attribute. See the
       application/desktop-cache/gio-module-cache(8s) man page for details
       about the gio-module-cache service. See the smf(7) man page for
       information about the Oracle Solaris Service Management Facility.
