Detailed Description
A class to hold memory pointers referenced by string names.
This is used to form a typeless data pointer that can be associated and referenced by string/logical name. The memory used for forming the string names can itself be managed in reusable memory pools and the entire structure uses it's own private pager heap. This allows new string named pointers to be added and deleted at runtime in a thread- safe manner. This might typically be used as a session id manager or for symbol tables.

Member Function Documentation
bool ucommon::keyassoc::assign |
( |
char * |
name, |
|
|
void * |
pointer |
|
) |
| |
Assign a name to a data pointer.
If the name exists, it is re-assigned with the new pointer value, otherwise it is created.
- Parameters
-
name | to assign. |
pointer | value to assign with name. |
- Returns
- false if failed because name is too long for managed table.
bool ucommon::keyassoc::create |
( |
char * |
name, |
|
|
void * |
pointer |
|
) |
| |
Create a new name in the association table and assign it's value.
- Parameters
-
name | to create. |
pointer | value to assign with name. |
- Returns
- false if already exists or name is too long for managed table.
unsigned ucommon::keyassoc::getCount |
( |
void |
| ) |
|
|
inline |
Get the number of associations we have in our object.
- Returns
- number of associations stored.
Definition at line 648 of file memory.h.
void* ucommon::keyassoc::locate |
( |
char * |
name | ) |
|
Lookup the data pointer by the string name given.
- Parameters
-
- Returns
- pointer to data or NULL if not found.
void* ucommon::keyassoc::operator() |
( |
char * |
name | ) |
|
|
inline |
Lookup the data pointer of a string by direct operation.
- Parameters
-
- Returns
- pointer to data or NULL if not found.
Definition at line 656 of file memory.h.
void* ucommon::keyassoc::remove |
( |
char * |
name | ) |
|
Remove a name and pointer association.
If managed key names are used then the memory allocated for the name will be re-used.
- Parameters
-
- Returns
- pointer value of the name or NULL if not found.
