## Detailed Description

A hashed object list class.

A hashed object list handling class. Objects placed in the list are distributed according to their String hash resulting in faster searches. On the other hand an object placed in a hashed list must never change its String value or it becomes unfindable.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

HashList | ( | unsigned int | size = `17` | ) |
| explicit

Creates a new, empty list.

Parameters

  size | Number of classes to divide the objects

virtual ~HashList | ( |  | ) |
| virtual

Destroys the list and everything in it.

## Member Function Documentation

ObjList* append | ( | const GenObject * | obj | ) |

Appends an object to the hashed list

Parameters

  obj | Pointer to the object to append

Returns
  A pointer to the inserted list item

ObjList* append | ( | const GenObject * | obj,
|  | unsigned int | hash
| ) |  |

Appends an object to the hashed list

Parameters

  obj | Pointer to the object to append
  hash | Object hash used to identify the list into which this object should be inserted

Returns
  A pointer to the inserted list item

void clear | ( |  | ) |

Clear the list and optionally delete all contained objects

unsigned int count | ( |  | ) | const

Get the number of non-null objects in the list

Returns
  Count of items

ObjList* find | ( | const GenObject * | obj | ) | const

Get the item in the list that holds an object. The item is searched sequentially in the lists, not using it's String hash

Parameters

  obj | Pointer to the object to search for

Returns
  Pointer to the found item or NULL

Referenced by HashList::remove().

ObjList* find | ( | const GenObject * | obj,
|  | unsigned int | hash
| ) |  | const

Get the item in the list that holds an object

Parameters

  obj | Pointer to the object to search for
  hash | Object hash used to identify the list it belongs to

Returns
  Pointer to the found item or NULL

ObjList* find | ( | const String & | str | ) | const

Get the item in the list that holds an object by String value

Parameters

  str | String value (toString) of the object to search for

Returns
  Pointer to the first found item or NULL

ObjList* getHashList | ( | unsigned int | hash | ) | const
| inline

Retrieve one of the internal object lists knowing the hash value.

Parameters

  hash | Hash of the internal list to retrieve

Returns
  Pointer to the list or NULL if never filled

References HashList::getList().

Referenced by HashList::getHashList().

ObjList* getHashList | ( | const String & | str | ) | const
| inline

Retrieve one of the internal object lists knowing the String value.

Parameters

  str | String whose hash internal list is to retrieve

Returns
  Pointer to the list or NULL if never filled

References HashList::getHashList(), and String::hash().

ObjList* getList | ( | unsigned int | index | ) | const
| inline

Retrieve one of the internal object lists. This method should be used only to iterate all objects in the list.

Parameters

  index | Index of the internal list to retrieve

Returns
  Pointer to the list or NULL

Referenced by HashList::getHashList().

virtual void* getObject | ( | const String & | name | ) | const
| virtual

Get a pointer to a derived class given that class name

Parameters

  name | Name of the class we are asking for

Returns
  Pointer to the requested class or NULL if this object doesn't implement it

Reimplemented from GenObject.

unsigned int length | ( |  | ) | const
| inline

Get the number of hash entries

Returns
  Count of hash entries

GenObject* operator[] | ( | const String & | str | ) | const

Array-like indexing operator

Parameters

  str | String value of the object to locate

Returns
  Pointer to the first object or NULL

GenObject* remove | ( | GenObject * | obj,
|  | bool | delobj = `true`,
|  | bool | useHash = `false`
| ) |  |

Delete the list item that holds a given object

Parameters

  obj | Object to search in the list
  delobj | True to delete the object (default)
  useHash | True to use object hash to identify the list it belongs to

Returns
  Pointer to the object if not destroyed

GenObject* remove | ( | const String & | str,
|  | bool | delobj = `true`
| ) |  |
| inline

Delete the item in the list that holds an object by String value

Parameters

  str | String value (toString) of the object to remove
  delobj | True to delete the object (default)

Returns
  Pointer to the object if not destroyed

References HashList::find(), and ObjList::remove().

GenObject* remove | ( | GenObject * | obj,
|  | unsigned int | hash,
|  | bool | delobj = `true`
| ) |  |
| inline

Delete the item in the list that has the associated hash

Parameters

  obj | Object to search in the list
  hash | Object hash used to identify the list from which to remove the object
  delobj | True to delete the object (default)

Returns
  Pointer to the object if not destroyed

References HashList::find(), and ObjList::remove().

bool resync | ( | GenObject * | obj | ) |

Resync the list by checking if a stored object belongs to the list according to its hash

Parameters

  obj | Object to resync in the list

Returns
  True if object was in the wrong list and had to be moved

bool resync | ( |  | ) |

Resync the list by checking if all stored objects belong to the list according to their hash

Returns
  True if at least one object had to be moved
