Constructor Detail

SymbolHash

public SymbolHash()

Constructs a key table with the default size.

SymbolHash

public SymbolHash(int size)

Constructs a key table with a given size.

Parameters:

size - the size of the key table.

Method Detail

put

public void put(java.lang.Object key,
                java.lang.Object value)

Adds the key/value mapping to the key table. If the key already exists, the previous value associated with this key is overwritten by the new value.

Parameters:

key -

value -

get

public java.lang.Object get(java.lang.Object key)

Get the value associated with the given key.

Parameters:

key -

Returns:

the value associated with the given key.

getLength

public int getLength()

Get the number of key/value pairs stored in this table.

Returns:

the number of key/value pairs stored in this table.

getValues

public int getValues(java.lang.Object[] elements,
                     int from)

Add all values to the given array. The array must have enough entry.

Parameters:

elements - the array to store the elements

from - where to start store element in the array

Returns:

number of elements copied to the array

makeClone

public SymbolHash makeClone()

Make a clone of this object.

clear

public void clear()

Remove all key/value assocaition. This tries to save a bit of GC'ing by at least keeping the fBuckets array around.
