NAME
ost::MapTable - A map table allows for entities to be mapped (hash index) onto it.
SYNOPSIS
#include <object.h>
Inherits ost::Mutex.
Public Member Functions
MapTable (unsigned size)
Create a map table with a specified number of slots.
virtual ~MapTable ()
Destroy the table, calls cleanup.
virtual unsigned getIndex (const char *id)
Get index value from id string.
unsigned getRange (void)
Return range of this table.
unsigned getSize (void)
Return the number of object stored in this table.
void * getObject (const char *id)
Lookup an object by id key.
void addObject (MapObject &obj)
Map an object to our table.
void * getFirst ()
Get the first element into table, it is returned as void * for easy re-cast.
void * getLast ()
Get the last element into table, it is returned as void * for easy re-cast.
void * getEnd ()
Get table's end, useful for cycle control; it is returned as void * for easy re-cast.
void * getFree (void)
Get next object from managed free list.
void addFree (MapObject *obj)
Add an object to the managed free list.
MapTable & operator+= (MapObject &obj)
An operator to map an object to the table.
virtual MapTable & operator-= (MapObject &obj)
This operator is virtual in case it must also add the object to a managed free list.

Detailed Description
A map table allows for entities to be mapped (hash index) onto it.
Unlike with Assoc, This form of map table also allows objects to be removed from the table. This table
also includes a mutex lock for thread safety. A free list is also optionally maintained for reusable
maps.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
ost::MapTable::MapTable (unsigned size)
Create a map table with a specified number of slots.
Parameters
number of slots.
virtual ost::MapTable::~MapTable () [virtual]
Destroy the table, calls cleanup.
Member Function Documentation
void ost::MapTable::addFree (MapObject * obj)
Add an object to the managed free list. Some MapObject's may override delete operator to detach and do
this.
Parameters
object to add.
void ost::MapTable::addObject (MapObject & obj)
Map an object to our table. If it is in another table already, it is removed there first.
Parameters
object to map.
void ost::MapTable::cleanup (void) [protected]
void* ost::MapTable::getEnd () [inline]
Get table's end, useful for cycle control; it is returned as void * for easy re-cast.
Returns
pointer to found object or NULL.
void* ost::MapTable::getFirst ()
Get the first element into table, it is returned as void * for easy re-cast.
Returns
pointer to found object or NULL.
void* ost::MapTable::getFree (void)
Get next object from managed free list. This returns as a void so it can be recast into the actual type
being used in derived MapObject's. A derived version of MapTable may well offer an explicit type version
of this. Some derived MapObject's may override new to use managed list.
Returns
next object on free list.
virtual unsigned ost::MapTable::getIndex (const char * id) [virtual]
Get index value from id string. This function can be changed as needed to provide better collision
avoidence for specific tables.
Parameters
id string
Returns
index slot in table.
void* ost::MapTable::getLast ()
Get the last element into table, it is returned as void * for easy re-cast.
Returns
pointer to found object or NULL.
void* ost::MapTable::getObject (const char * id)
Lookup an object by id key. It is returned as void * for easy re-cast.
Parameters
key to find.
Returns
pointer to found object or NULL.
unsigned ost::MapTable::getRange (void) [inline]
Return range of this table.
Returns
table range.
unsigned ost::MapTable::getSize (void) [inline]
Return the number of object stored in this table.
Returns
table size.
MapTable& ost::MapTable::operator+= (MapObject & obj)
An operator to map an object to the table.
Returns
table being used.
Parameters
object being mapped.
virtual MapTable& ost::MapTable::operator-= (MapObject & obj) [virtual]
This operator is virtual in case it must also add the object to a managed free list.
Returns
current table.
Parameters
object entity to remove.
