Name
SPVM::Hash - Hash (Associative Array)
Description
Hash class in SPVM represents hashes(associative arrays).
Usage
use Hash;
my $book = Hash->new;
my $book = Hash->new({id => 4, name => "Perl", price => 3000.0});
$book->set(id => 4);
$book->set(name => "Perl");
$book->set(price => 3000.0);
$book->set(point => Point->new(1, 2));
my $id = $book->get("id")->(int);
my $name = $book->get("name")->(string);
my $price = $book->get("price")->(double);
my $point = $book->get("point")->(Point);
if ($hash->exists("id")) {
}
# Use hash access syntax
$book->{"id"} = 4;
$book->{"name"} = "Perl";
$book->{"price"} = 3000.0;
$book->{"point"} = Point->new(1, 2);
my $id = $book->{"id"}->(int);
my $name = $book->{"name"}->(string);
my $price = $book->{"price"}->(double);
my $point = $book->{"point"}->(Point);
Details
The hash function is siphash-1-3
.
Interfaces
Fields
keys_length
has keys_length : ro int;
The length of the keys in the hash.
Class Methods
new
static method new : Hash ($key_values : object[] = undef);
Creates a new Hash object given key-value pairs $key_values.
Examples:
my $book = Hash->new;
my $book = Hash->new({});
my $book = Hash->new({id => 4, name => "Perl"});
new_from_keys
static method new_from_keys : void ($keys : string[], $value : object);
Creates a new hash with the keys $keys and the value $value shared by all keys, and returns the new hash.
Exceptions:
The keys $keys must be defined. Otherwise an exception is thrown.
Instance Methods
copy
method copy : Hash ();
Creates a new Hash object, and copies the keys and values of the current hash to the new hash, and returns it.
This is not deep copy. The keys are got by "keys" method. The values are got by "get" method.
clone
method clone : Hash ();
The alias for "copy" method.
delete
method delete : element ($key : string);
Deletes the key and value given by the key $key.
The deleted value is returned.
Exceptions:
The key $key must be defined. Otherwise, an exception is thrown.
exists
method exists : int ($key : string);
Checks if the value specified by the key $key exists. If it exists, returns 1. Otherwise returns 0.
keys
method keys : string[] ();
Gets the keys in the hash. This method does not copy the strings.
values
method values : object[] ();
Gets all the values in the hash.
get
method get : element ($key : string);
Gets the value specifed by the key $key, and returns it.
If the value does not exist, returns undef.
Exceptions:
The key $key must be defined. Otherwise, an exception is thrown.
weaken
method weaken : void ($key : string));
Enables a weaken reference of the field that stores the value specifed by the key $key if the value exists.
Exceptions:
The key $key must be defined. Otherwise, an exception is thrown.
unweaken
method unweaken : void ($key : string);
Disables a weaken reference of the field that stores the value specifed by the key $key if the value exists.
Exceptions:
The key $key must be defined. Otherwise, an exception is thrown.
isweak
method isweak : int ($key : string)
If the field that stores the value specifed by the key $key is weakened, returns 1, otherwise returns 0.
Exceptions:
The key $key must be defined. Otherwise, an exception is thrown.
set
method set : void ($key : string, $value : object);
Sets $value to the hash by the key $key.
Exceptions:
The key $key must be defined. Otherwise, an exception is thrown.
to_array
method to_array : object[] ($sort : int = 0);
Converts all the key-value pairs in the hash to an array, and returns it.
If the option $sort is a positive value, the keys are sorted by ascendant order.
If the option $sort is a negative value, the keys are sorted by decendant order.
to_options
method to_options : object[] ($sort : int = 0);
Same as "to_array" method, but enables options flag using enable_options
operator.
get_or_default
method get_or_default : element ($key : string, $default : object;
If the value specified by the key $key exists, this method calls "get" method , and returns the return value of "get" method.
If the value specified by the key $key does not exists, returns the default value $default.
merge
method merge : void ($hash : Hash);
Merges the hash $hash into the current hash.
merge_options
method merge_options : void ($options : object[]);
Merges the options $options into the current hash.
