Problem/Motivation

"Flush views caches" is the submenu of main "Flush all caches" menu. But when you click "Flush all caches" button the Views cache don't flush that is really confused:

It happends because the drupal_flush_all_caches() function don't trigger views_invalidate_cache()

Steps to reproduce

To clear the cache of views uses the method views_invalidate_cache() so here the steps how to check that this method not triggers while clearing ALL site caches:

  1. Enable views module
  2. Open web/core/modules/views/views.module and set breakpoint to the views_invalidate_cache():
  3. Go to admin/config/development/performance
  4. Enable debugging and press "Clear all caches"
  5. Check that debug session was finished without being paused on views_invalidate_cache() function

Proposed resolution

Add hook_cache_flush() to views module that will be fired by drupal_flush_all_caches().
