## Detailed Description

A set of ordinal integers.

An abstract dictionary container.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PINLINE PAbstractDictionary::PAbstractDictionary | ( |  | ) |

Create a new, empty, dictionary.

Note that by default, objects placed into the dictionary will be deleted when removed or when all references to the dictionary are destroyed.

## Member Function Documentation

virtual PObject* PAbstractDictionary::AbstractGetAt | ( | const PObject & | key | ) | const
| virtual

Get the object at the specified key position.

If the key was not in the collection then NULL is returned.

Returns
  pointer to object at the specified key.

Parameters

  key | Key for position in dictionary to get object.

Referenced by PDictionary< K, PString >::GetAt().

virtual void PAbstractDictionary::AbstractGetKeys | ( | PArrayObjects & | keys | ) | const
| virtual

Get an array containing all the keys for the dictionary.

Referenced by PDictionary< K, PString >::GetKeys().

virtual PObject* PAbstractDictionary::AbstractSetAt | ( | const PObject & | key,
|  | PObject * | obj
| ) |  |
| virtual

Add a new object to the collection.

If the objects value is already in the dictionary then the object is overrides the previous value. If the AllowDeleteObjects option is set then the old object is also deleted.

The object is placed in the an ordinal position dependent on the keys hash function. Subsequent searches use the hash function to speed access to the data item.

Returns
  true if the object was successfully added.

Parameters

  key | Key for position in dictionary to add object.
  obj | New object to put into the dictionary.

Referenced by PDictionary< K, PString >::erase(), PDictionary< K, PString >::RemoveAt(), PDictionary< K, PString >::SetAt(), POrdinalDictionary< K >::SetAt(), PStringDictionary< K >::SetAt(), and POrdinalDictionary< K >::SetDataAt().

virtual PObject* PAbstractDictionary::GetAt | ( | PINDEX | index | ) | const
| virtual

Get the object at the specified index position.

If the index was not in the collection then NULL is returned.

Returns
  pointer to object at the specified index.

Parameters

  index | Index position in the collection of the object.

Implements PCollection.

virtual PINDEX PAbstractDictionary::GetObjectsIndex | ( | const PObject * | obj | ) | const
| virtual

Search the collection for the specific instance of the object.

The object pointers are compared, not the values. The hash table is used to locate the entry.

Note that that will require value comparisons to be made to find the equivalent entry and then a final check is made with the pointers to see if they are the same instance.

Returns
  ordinal index position of the object, or P_MAX_INDEX.

Parameters

  obj | Object to find.

Implements PCollection.

virtual PObject& PAbstractDictionary::GetRefAt | ( | const PObject & | key | ) | const
| virtual

Get the object at the specified key position.

If the key was not in the collection then this function asserts.

This function is primarily for use by the operator[] function in the descendent template classes.

Returns
  reference to object at the specified key.

Parameters

  key | Key for position in dictionary to get object.

Referenced by PDictionary< K, PString >::operator[](), and POrdinalDictionary< K >::operator[]().

virtual PINDEX PAbstractDictionary::GetValuesIndex | ( | const PObject & | obj | ) | const
| virtual

Search the collection for the specified value of the object.

The object values are compared, not the pointers. So the objects in the collection must correctly implement the `PObject::Compare()` function. The hash table is used to locate the entry.

Returns
  ordinal index position of the object, or P_MAX_INDEX.

Parameters

  obj | Object to find value of.

Implements PCollection.

virtual PINDEX PAbstractDictionary::Insert | ( | const PObject & | key,
|  | PObject * | obj
| ) |  |
| virtual

Insert a new object into the dictionary.

The semantics of this function is different from that of the `PCollection` class. This function is exactly equivalent to the `SetAt()` function that sets a data value at the key value location.

Returns
  Always zero.

Parameters

  key | Object value to use as the key.
  obj | New object to place into the collection.

Implements PCollection.

virtual PINDEX PAbstractDictionary::InsertAt | ( | PINDEX | index,
|  | PObject * | obj
| ) |  |
| virtual

Insert a new object at the specified index.

This function only applies to derived classes whose key is PINDEX based.

Returns
  `index` parameter.

Parameters

  index | Index position in collection to place the object.
  obj | New object to place into the collection.

Implements PCollection.

virtual void PAbstractDictionary::PrintOn | ( | ostream & | strm | ) | const
| virtual

Output the contents of the object to the stream.

The exact output is dependent on the exact semantics of the descendent class. This is primarily used by the standard `operator<<` function.

The default behaviour is to print the class name.

Parameters

  strm | Stream to print the object into.

Reimplemented in PMIMEInfo.

virtual PObject* PAbstractDictionary::RemoveAt | ( | PINDEX | index | ) |
| virtual

Remove an object at the specified index.

This function only applies to derived classes whose key is PINDEX based. The returned pointer is then removed using the `SetAt()` function to set that key value to NULL. If the `AllowDeleteObjects` option is set then the object is also deleted.

Returns
  pointer to the object being removed, or NULL if it was deleted.

Parameters

  index | Index position in collection to place the object.

Implements PCollection.

virtual PBoolean PAbstractDictionary::SetAt | ( | PINDEX | index,
|  | PObject * | val
| ) |  |
| virtual

Set the object at the specified index to the new value.

This function only applies to derived classes whose key is PINDEX based. This will overwrite the existing entry. If the AllowDeleteObjects() option is set then the old object is also deleted.

Returns
  true if the object was successfully added.

Parameters

  index | Index position in collection to set.
  val | New value to place into the collection.

Implements PCollection.

virtual P_DEPRECATED PBoolean PAbstractDictionary::SetDataAt | ( | PINDEX | index,
|  | PObject * | obj
| ) |  |
| virtual

Set the data at the specified ordinal index position in the dictionary.

The ordinal position in the dictionary is determined by the hash values of the keys and the order of insertion.

Returns
  true if the new object could be placed into the dictionary.

Parameters

  index | Ordinal index in the dictionary.
  obj | New object to put into the dictionary.
