Detailed Description

This is the hash or associative list container type in Qore, dynamically allocated only, reference counted.

it is both a value type and can hold parse expressions as well (in which case it needs to be evaluated) This type also maintains the insertion order as well as offering a hash-based lookup of string keys. The insertion order of keys is maintained in order to support consistent serialization and deserialization to and from XML, JSON, YAML, etc

		ExceptionSink *	xsink
	)		const

does a deep "hard" compare of all hash elements (no type conversions are performed) and returns true if the hashes are equal

Note: that if the hashes have a different number of keys then the comparison fails immediately

Returns: true if the hashes have the same number and values of keys and all elements are equal and of the same type (no type conversions are performed)

◆ compareSoft()

DLLEXPORT bool QoreHashNode::compareSoft	(	const QoreHashNode *	h,
		ExceptionSink *	xsink
	)		const

does a deep "soft" compare of all hash elements (types may be converted for the comparison) and returns true if the hashes are equal

Note: that if the hashes have a different number or names of keys then the comparison fails immediately

Returns: true if the hashes have the same number and names of keys and all elements are equal (types may be converted for the comparison)

the delete operation means a simple dereference for all types except QoreObject, on this type the destructor will be run immediately

Parameters

key	the key of the value to delete
xsink	if an error occurs, the Qore-language exception information will be added here

◆ deleteKey() [2/2]

DLLEXPORT void QoreHashNode::deleteKey	(	const QoreString *	key,

performs a delete operation on the value of the given key

The delete operation means a simple dereference for all types except QoreObject, on this type the destructor will be run immediately. A Qore-language exception could occur eitherin converting the key string's encoding to QCS_DEFAULT, or in the destructor of a deleted object.

Parameters

key	the key of the value to delete
xsink	if an error occurs, the Qore-language exception information will be added here

◆ derefImpl()

virtual DLLEXPORT bool QoreHashNode::derefImpl ( ExceptionSink * xsink )

A Qore-language exception could occur either in converting the key string's encoding to QCS_DEFAULT, or when dereferencing the contained value

Parameters

key	the key of the value to delete
xsink	if an error occurs, the Qore-language exception information will be added here

◆ setKeyValue() [1/2]

DLLEXPORT int QoreHashNode::setKeyValue	(	const char *	key,
		QoreValue	value,
		ExceptionSink *	xsink
	)

sets the value of "key" to "value"

A Qore-language exception could be thrown if the hash is derived from a hashdecl and the key is unknown, or if the given key has a current value and it's a QoreObject that goes out of scope when dereferenced (the object's destructor could throw an exception); if an exception is thrown due to encoding conversion issues (and therefore the assignment is not made) then the value to be assigned is dereferenced automatically

Parameters

key	the key to set the value for
value	the value to assign to the key, must be already referenced for the assignment
xsink	if an error occurs, the Qore-language exception information will be added here

Returns: 0 for OK, -1 if a Qore-language exception was thrown

Note: the assignment is made even if an exception occurs when dereferencing the old value

Since: Qore 0.8.13

◆ setKeyValue() [2/2]

DLLEXPORT int QoreHashNode::setKeyValue	(	const QoreString &	key,
		QoreValue	value,
		ExceptionSink *	xsink
	)

sets the value of "key" to "value"

A Qore-language exception could be thrown if the hash is derived from a hashdecl and the key is unknown, or converting the key string's encoding to QCS_DEFAULT, or if the given key has a current value and it's a QoreObject that goes out of scope when dereferenced (the object's destructor could throw an exception); if an exception is thrown due to encoding conversion issues (and therefore the assignment is not made) then the value to be assigned is dereferenced automatically

Parameters

key	the key to set the value for
value	the value to assign to the key, must be already referenced for the assignment
xsink	if an error occurs, the Qore-language exception information will be added here

Returns: 0 for OK, -1 if a Qore-language exception was thrown

Note: the assignment is made even if an exception occurs when dereferencing the old value

Since: Qore 0.8.13

◆ size()

DLLEXPORT size_t QoreHashNode::size ( ) const

returns the number of members in the hash, executes in constant time

Returns: the number of members in the hash
