Detailed Description

template<class T, class K, class ArrayMemoryAlloc = CS::Container::ArrayAllocDefault, class ArrayElementHandler = csArraySafeCopyElementHandler< CS::Container::HashElement<T, K> >>
class CS::Container::WeakKeyedHash< T, K, ArrayMemoryAlloc, ArrayElementHandler >

Hash type that allows (certain) changes of key objects.

This hash type works with keys that may be 'invalidated' as a side effect of some other operation - prime example is csWeakRef<> which gets cleared if the referenced object is destroyed. However, apart from invalidation, key objects may not change their values.

The validity of a key is tested by evaluating it to a bool. Invalid keys should evaluate to false (conversely, valid keys should evaluate to true).

Invalid keys, and values associated with them, are occasionally cleaned out as a part of normal operation (element retrieval, element insertion ...), hence it is likely to occur that the value associated with a key that got invalidated will stay allocated for an unknown amount of time.

const T& CS::Container::WeakKeyedHash< T, K, ArrayMemoryAlloc, ArrayElementHandler >::Get ( const K &  key,
const T &  fallback 
) [inline]

Get the first element matching the given key, or fallback if there is none.

template<class T, class K, class ArrayMemoryAlloc = CS::Container::ArrayAllocDefault, class ArrayElementHandler = csArraySafeCopyElementHandler< CS::Container::HashElement<T, K> >>
GlobalIterator CS::Container::WeakKeyedHash< T, K, ArrayMemoryAlloc, ArrayElementHandler >::GetIterator (  )  [inline]

Return an iterator for the hash, to iterate over all elements.

Warning:
Modifying the hash (except with DeleteElement()) while you have open iterators will result in undefined behaviour.

template<class T, class K, class ArrayMemoryAlloc = CS::Container::ArrayAllocDefault, class ArrayElementHandler = csArraySafeCopyElementHandler< CS::Container::HashElement<T, K> >>
T& CS::Container::WeakKeyedHash< T, K, ArrayMemoryAlloc, ArrayElementHandler >::Put ( const K &  key,
const T &  value 
) [inline]

Add an element to the hash table.

Remarks:
If key is already present, does NOT replace the existing value, but merely adds value as an additional value of key. To retrieve all values for a given key, use GetAll(). If you instead want to replace an existing value for key, use PutUnique().
