# uncached(_:)

Returns a placeholder menu element that the system replaces with the result of the provider’s completion handler.

## Declaration

```swift
class func uncached(_ elementProvider: @escaping (@escaping ([UIMenuElement]) -> Void) -> Void) -> Self
```

## Parameters

- `elementProvider`: The closure the system calls to request the deferred menu items.

## Discussion

Discussion When you use this initializer, the system calls each deferred element’s completion closure every time it encounters the element in a menu. The system doesn’t cache the element for reuse.
