# STC [cmap](../stc/cmap.h): Unordered Map ![Map](pics/map.jpg) A **cmap** is an associative container that contains key-value pairs with unique keys. Search, insertion, and removal of elements have average constant-time complexity. Internally, the elements are not sorted in any particular order, but organized into buckets. Which bucket an element is placed into depends entirely on the hash of its key. This allows fast access to individual elements, since once the hash is computed, it refers to the exact bucket the element is placed into. It is implemented as closed hashing (aka open addressing) with linear probing, and without leaving tombstones on erase. ***Iterator invalidation***: References and iterators are invalidated after erase. No iterators are invalidated after insert, unless the hash-table need to be extended. The hash table size can be reserved prior to inserts if the total max size is known. The order of elements is preserved after erase and insert. This makes it possible to erase individual elements while iterating through the container by using the returned iterator from *erase_at()*, which references the next element. See the c++ class [std::unordered_map](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/container/unordered_map) for a functional description. ## Header file and declaration ```c #include using_cmap(X, Key, Mapped); using_cmap(X, Key, Mapped, keyEquals, keyHash); using_cmap(X, Key, Mapped, keyEquals, keyHash, mappedDel, mappedClone = c_no_clone); using_cmap(X, Key, Mapped, keyEquals, keyHash, mappedDel, mappedFromRaw, mappedToRaw, RawMapped); using_cmap(X, Key, Mapped, keyEqualsRaw, keyHashRaw, mappedDel, mappedFromRaw, mappedToRaw, RawMapped, keyDel, keyFromRaw, keyToRaw, RawKey); using_cmap_keydef(X, Key, Mapped, keyEquals, keyHash, keyDel, keyClone); using_cmap_keydef(X, Key, Mapped, keyEqualsRaw, keyHashRaw, keyDel, keyFromRaw, keyToRaw, RawKey); using_cmap_strkey(X, Mapped); // using_cmap(X, cstr, Mapped, ...) using_cmap_strkey(X, Mapped, mappedDel, mappedClone = c_no_clone); using_cmap_strkey(X, Mapped, mappedDel, mappedFromRaw, mappedToRaw, RawMapped); using_cmap_strval(X, Key); // using_cmap(X, Key, cstr, ...) using_cmap_strval(X, Key, keyEquals, keyHash); using_cmap_strval(X, Key, keyEquals, keyHash, keyDel, keyClone = c_no_clone); using_cmap_strval(X, Key, keyEqualsRaw, keyHashRaw, keyDel, keyFromRaw, keyToRaw, RawKey); using_cmap_str() // using_cmap(str, cstr, cstr, ...) ``` The `using_cmap()` macro family must be instantiated in the global scope. `X` is a type tag name and will affect the names of all cmap types and methods. E.g. declaring `using_cmap(ii, int, int);`, `X` should be replaced by `ii` in all of the following documentation. ## Methods ```c cmap_X cmap_X_init(void); cmap_X cmap_X_with_capacity(size_t cap); cmap_X cmap_X_clone(cmap_x map);

RawMapped second; }` | RawKey + RawMapped type | | `cmap_X_key_t` | `Key` | The key type | | `cmap_X_mapped_t` | `Mapped` | The mapped type | | `cmap_X_value_t` | `struct { const Key first; Mapped second; }` | The value: key is immutable | | `cmap_X_result_t` | `struct { cmap_X_value_t *ref; bool inserted; }`| Result of insert/put/emplace | | `cmap_X_iter_t` | `struct { cmap_X_value_t *ref; ... }` | Iterator type | ## Examples ```c #include #include using_cmap_str(); int main() { // Create an unordered_map of three strings (that map to strings) c_init (cmap_str, u, { {"RED", "#FF0000"}, {"GREEN", "#00FF00"}, {"BLUE", "#0000FF"} }); // Iterate and print keys and values of unordered map c_foreach (n, cmap_str, u) { printf("Key:[%s] Value:[%s]\n", n.ref->first.str, n.ref->second.str); } // Add two new entries to the unordered map cmap_str_emplace(&u, "BLACK", "#000000"); cmap_str_emplace(&u, "WHITE", "#FFFFFF"); // Output values by key printf("The HEX of color RED is:[%s]\n", cmap_str_at(&u, "RED")->str); printf("The HEX of color BLACK is:[%s]\n", cmap_str_at(&u, "BLACK")->str); cmap_str_del(&u); return 0; } ``` Output: ``` Key:[RED] Value:[#FF0000] Key:[GREEN] Value:[#00FF00] Key:[BLUE] Value:[#0000FF] The HEX of color RED is:[#FF0000] The HEX of color BLACK is:[#000000] ``` ### Example 2 This example uses a cmap with cstr as mapped value, by the `using_cmap_strval(id, int)` macro. ```c #include #include /* cmap: */ using_cmap_strval(id, int); int main() { uint32_t col = 0xcc7744ff; cmap_id idnames = cmap_id_init(); c_emplace(cmap_id, idnames, { {100, "Red"}, {110, "Blue"} }); /* replace existing mapped value: */ cmap_id_emplace_or_assign(&idnames, 110, "White"); /* insert a new constructed mapped string into map: */ cmap_id_insert_or_assign(&idnames, 120, cstr_from_fmt("#%08x", col)); /* emplace/insert does nothing if key already exist: */ cmap_id_emplace(&idnames, 100, "Green"); c_foreach (i, cmap_id, idnames) printf("%d: %s\n", i.ref->first, i.ref->second.str); cmap_id_del(&idnames); } ``` Output: ```c 100: Red 110: White 120: #cc7744ff ``` ### Example 3 Demonstrate cmap with plain-old-data key type Vec3i and int as mapped type: cmap. ```c #include #include typedef struct { int x, y, z; } Vec3i; using_cmap(vi, Vec3i, int, c_trivial_equals, // bitwise equals c_default_hash); // bytewise hash int main() { cmap_vi vecs = cmap_vi_init(); cmap_vi_emplace(&vecs, (Vec3i){100, 0, 0}, 1); cmap_vi_emplace(&vecs, (Vec3i){ 0, 100, 0}, 2); cmap_vi_emplace(&vecs, (Vec3i){ 0, 0, 100}, 3); cmap_vi_emplace(&vecs, (Vec3i){100, 100, 100}, 4); c_foreach (i, cmap_vi, vecs) printf("{ %3d, %3d, %3d }: %d\n", i.ref->first.x, i.ref->first.y, i.ref->first.z, i.ref->second); cmap_vi_del(&vecs); } ``` Output: ```c { 100, 0, 0 }: 1 { 0, 0, 100 }: 3 { 100, 100, 100 }: 4 { 0, 100, 0 }: 2 ``` ### Example 4 Inverse: demonstrate cmap with mapped POD type Vec3i: cmap: ```c #include #include typedef struct { int x, y, z; } Vec3i; using_cmap(iv, int, Vec3i); int main() { cmap_iv vecs = cmap_iv_init(); cmap_iv_emplace(&vecs, 1, (Vec3i){100, 0, 0}); cmap_iv_emplace(&vecs, 2, (Vec3i){ 0, 100, 0}); cmap_iv_emplace(&vecs, 3, (Vec3i){ 0, 0, 100}); cmap_iv_emplace(&vecs, 4, (Vec3i){100, 100, 100}); c_foreach (i, cmap_iv, vecs) printf("%d: { %3d, %3d, %3d }\n", i.ref->first, i.ref->second.x, i.ref->second.y, i.ref->second.z); cmap_iv_del(&vecs); } ``` Output: ```c 4: { 100, 100, 100 } 3: { 0, 0, 100 } 2: { 0, 100, 0 } 1: { 100, 0, 0 } ``` ### Example 5 Advanced 1: Key type is struct. ```c #include #include typedef struct { cstr name; cstr country; } Viking; static int Viking_equals(const Viking* a, const Viking* b) { return cstr_equals_s(a->name, b->name) && cstr_equals_s(a->country, b->country); } static uint32_t Viking_hash(const Viking* a, int ignored) { return c_strhash(a->name.str) ^ (c_strhash(a->country.str) >> 15); } static void Viking_del(Viking* v) { c_del(cstr, &v->name, &v->country); } using_cmap_keydef(vk, Viking, int, Viking_equals, Viking_hash, Viking_del, c_no_clone); int main() { // Use a HashMap to store the vikings' health points. cmap_vk vikings = cmap_vk_init(); cmap_vk_insert(&vikings, (Viking){cstr_from("Einar"), cstr_from("Norway")}, 25); cmap_vk_insert(&vikings, (Viking){cstr_from("Olaf"), cstr_from("Denmark")}, 24); cmap_vk_insert(&vikings, (Viking){cstr_from("Harald"), cstr_from("Iceland")}, 12); cmap_vk_insert(&vikings, (Viking){cstr_from("Einar"), cstr_from("Denmark")}, 21); Viking lookup = (Viking){cstr_from("Einar"), cstr_from("Norway")}; printf("Lookup: Einar of Norway has %d hp\n\n", *cmap_vk_at(&vikings, lookup)); Viking_del(&lookup); // Print the status of the vikings. c_foreach (i, cmap_vk, vikings) { printf("%s of %s has %d hp\n", i.ref->first.name.str, i.ref->first.country.str, i.ref->second); } cmap_vk_del(&vikings); } ``` Output: ``` Olaf of Denmark has 24 hp Einar of Denmark has 21 hp Einar of Norway has 25 hp Harald of Iceland has 12 hp ``` ### Example 6 Advanced 2: In example 5 we needed to construct a lookup key which allocated strings, and then had to free it after. In this example we use rawtype feature to make it even simpler to use. Note that we must use the emplace() methods to add "raw" type entries (otherwise compile error): ```c #include #include typedef struct { cstr name; cstr country; } Viking; static void Viking_del(Viking* v) { c_del(cstr, &v->name, &v->country); } // Define a "raw" type with equals, hash, fromraw, toraw functions: typedef struct { const char* name; const char* country; } RViking; static int RViking_equals(const RViking* r1, const RViking* r2) { return !strcmp(r1->name, r2->name) && !strcmp(r1->country, r2->country); } static uint32_t RViking_hash(const RViking* r, int ignored) { return c_strhash(r->name) ^ (c_strhash(r->country) >> 15); } static Viking Viking_fromR(RViking r) {return (Viking){cstr_from(r.name), cstr_from(r.country)};} static RViking Viking_toR(const Viking* v) {return (RViking){v->name.str, v->country.str};} using_cmap_keydef(vk, Viking, int, RViking_equals, RViking_hash, Viking_del, Viking_fromR, Viking_toR, RViking); int main() { // Use a HashMap to store the vikings' health points. cmap_vk vikings = cmap_vk_init(); // insert works as before, takes a constructed Viking object cmap_vk_insert(&vikings, (Viking){cstr_from("Einar"), cstr_from("Norway")}, 25); cmap_vk_insert(&vikings, (Viking){cstr_from("Olaf"), cstr_from("Denmark")}, 24); // emplace is simple to use now. cmap_vk_emplace(&vikings, (RViking){"Harald", "Iceland"}, 12); cmap_vk_emplace(&vikings, (RViking){"Einar", "Denmark"}, 21); // And lookup uses "raw" key type, so no need construct/destruct key: printf("Lookup: Einar of Norway has %d hp\n\n", *cmap_vk_at(&vikings, (RViking){"Einar", "Norway"})); // Print the status of the vikings. c_foreach (i, cmap_vk, vikings) { printf("%s of %s has %d hp\n", i.ref->first.name.str, i.ref->first.country.str, i.ref->second); } cmap_vk_del(&vikings); } ```
