#define _LH_INLINE inline

Deprecated:: Don't use this outside of linkhash.h:

#define _LH_UNCONST ( a ) ((void *)(uintptr_t)(const void *)(a))

Deprecated:: Don't use this outside of linkhash.h:

#define JSON_C_STR_HASH_DFLT 0

default string hash function

#define JSON_C_STR_HASH_PERLLIKE 1

perl-like string hash function

#define LH_EMPTY (void*)-1

sentinel pointer value for empty slots

#define lh_entry_k ( entry ) _LH_UNCONST((entry)->k)

Return a non-const version of lh_entry.k.

lh_entry.k is const to indicate and help ensure that linkhash itself doesn't modify it, but callers are allowed to do what they want with it. See also lh_entry.k_is_constant

#define lh_entry_v ( entry ) _LH_UNCONST((entry)->v)

Return a non-const version of lh_entry.v.

v is const to indicate and help ensure that linkhash itself doesn't modify it, but callers are allowed to do what they want with it.

#define lh_foreach	(	table,
		entry
	)	for(entry = table->head; entry; entry = entry->next)

Convenience list iterator.

#define lh_foreach_safe	(	table,
		entry,
		tmp
	)	for(entry = table->head; entry && ((tmp = entry->next) \|\| 1); entry = tmp)

lh_foreach_safe allows calling of deletion routine while iterating.

Parameters

table	a struct lh_table * to iterate over
entry	a struct lh_entry * variable to hold each element
tmp	a struct lh_entry * variable to hold a temporary pointer to the next element

#define LH_FREED (void*)-2

sentinel pointer value for freed slots

#define LH_LOAD_FACTOR 0.66

The fraction of filled hash buckets until an insert will cause the table to be resized. This can range from just above 0 up to 1.0.

#define LH_PRIME 0x9e370001UL

golden prime used in hash functions

Function Documentation

int json_global_set_string_hash ( const int h )

This function sets the hash function to be used for strings. Must be one of the JSON_C_STR_HASH_* values.

Returns: 0 - ok, -1 if parameter was invalid

void lh_abort	(	const char *	msg,
			...
	)

Prints a message to stdout, then exits the program with an exit code of 1.

Parameters

msg	Message format string, like for `printf`.
...	Format args.

Deprecated:: Since it is not a good idea to exit the entire program because of an internal library failure, json-c will no longer use this function internally. However, because its interface is public, it will remain part of the API on the off chance of legacy software using it externally.

struct lh_table* lh_kchar_table_new	(	int	size,
		lh_entry_free_fn *	free_fn
	)

Convenience function to create a new linkhash table with char keys.

Parameters

size	initial table size.
free_fn	callback function used to free memory for entries.

Returns: On success, a pointer to the new linkhash table is returned. On error, a null pointer is returned.

struct lh_table* lh_kptr_table_new	(	int	size,
		lh_entry_free_fn *	free_fn
	)

Convenience function to create a new linkhash table with ptr keys.

Parameters

size	initial table size.
free_fn	callback function used to free memory for entries.

Returns: On success, a pointer to the new linkhash table is returned. On error, a null pointer is returned.

int lh_table_delete	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		const void *	k
	)

Delete a record from the table.

If a callback free function is provided then it is called for the for the item being deleted.

Parameters

t	the table to delete from.
k	a pointer to the key to delete.

Returns: 0 if the item was deleted.; -1 if it was not found.

int lh_table_delete_entry	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		struct lh_entry *	e
	)

Delete a record from the table.

If a callback free function is provided then it is called for the for the item being deleted.

Parameters

t	the table to delete from.
e	a pointer to the entry to delete.

Returns: 0 if the item was deleted.; -1 if it was not found.

void lh_table_free ( struct lh_table * t )

Free a linkhash table.

If a lh_entry_free_fn callback free function was provided then it is called for all entries in the table.

Parameters

t	table to free.

int lh_table_insert	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		const void *	k,
		const void *	v
	)

Insert a record into the table.

Parameters

t	the table to insert into.
k	a pointer to the key to insert.
v	a pointer to the value to insert.

Returns: On success, 0 is returned. On error, a negative value is returned.

int lh_table_insert_w_hash	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		const void *	k,
		const void *	v,
		const unsigned long	h,
		const unsigned	opts
	)

Insert a record into the table using a precalculated key hash.

The hash h, which should be calculated with lh_get_hash() on k, is provided by the caller, to allow for optimization when multiple operations with the same key are known to be needed.

Parameters

t	the table to insert into.
k	a pointer to the key to insert.
v	a pointer to the value to insert.
h	hash value of the key to insert
opts	if set to JSON_C_OBJECT_KEY_IS_CONSTANT, sets lh_entry.k_is_constant so t's free function knows to avoid freeing the key.

int lh_table_length ( struct lh_table * t )

const void* lh_table_lookup	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		const void *	k
	)

Lookup a record into the table.

Parameters

t	the table to lookup
k	a pointer to the key to lookup

Returns: a pointer to the found value or NULL if it does not exist.

Deprecated:: Use lh_table_lookup_ex() instead.

struct lh_entry* lh_table_lookup_entry	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		const void *	k
	)

Lookup a record in the table.

Parameters

t	the table to lookup
k	a pointer to the key to lookup

Returns: a pointer to the record structure of the value or NULL if it does not exist.

struct lh_entry* lh_table_lookup_entry_w_hash	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		const void *	k,
		const unsigned long	h
	)

Lookup a record in the table using a precalculated key hash.

The hash h, which should be calculated with lh_get_hash() on k, is provided by the caller, to allow for optimization when multiple operations with the same key are known to be needed.

Parameters

t	the table to lookup
k	a pointer to the key to lookup
h	hash value of the key to lookup

Returns: a pointer to the record structure of the value or NULL if it does not exist.

json_bool lh_table_lookup_ex	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		const void *	k,
		void **	v
	)

Lookup a record in the table.

Parameters

t	the table to lookup
k	a pointer to the key to lookup
v	a pointer to a where to store the found value (set to NULL if it doesn't exist).

Returns: whether or not the key was found

struct lh_table* lh_table_new	(	int	size,
		lh_entry_free_fn *	free_fn,
		lh_hash_fn *	hash_fn,
		lh_equal_fn *	equal_fn
	)

Create a new linkhash table.

Parameters

size	initial table size. The table is automatically resized although this incurs a performance penalty.
free_fn	callback function used to free memory for entries when lh_table_free or lh_table_delete is called. If NULL is provided, then memory for keys and values must be freed by the caller.
hash_fn	function used to hash keys. 2 standard ones are defined: lh_ptr_hash and lh_char_hash for hashing pointer values and C strings respectively.
equal_fn	comparison function to compare keys. 2 standard ones defined: lh_ptr_hash and lh_char_hash for comparing pointer values and C strings respectively.

int lh_table_resize	(	struct lh_table *	t,
		int	new_size
	)

Resizes the specified table.

Parameters

t	Pointer to table to resize.
new_size	New table size. Must be positive.
