-- Hash table searching routines
-- This package contains two separate packages. The Simple_HTable package
-- provides a very simple abstraction that associates one element to one
-- key value and takes care of all allocations automatically using the heap.
-- The Static_HTable package provides a more complex interface that allows
-- complete control over allocation.
package System.HTable is
pragma Preelaborate;
-------------------
-- Simple_HTable --
-------------------
-- A simple hash table abstraction, easy to instantiate, easy to use.
-- The table associates one element to one key with the procedure Set.
-- Get retrieves the Element stored for a given Key. The efficiency of
-- retrieval is function of the size of the Table parameterized by
-- Header_Num and the hashing function Hash.
generic
type Header_Num is range <>;
-- An integer type indicating the number and range of hash headers
type Element is private;
-- The type of element to be stored
No_Element : Element;
-- The object that is returned by Get when no element has been set for
-- a given key.
type Key is private;
with function Hash (F : Key) return Header_Num;
with function Equal (F1, F2 : Key) return Boolean;
package Simple_HTable is
procedure Set (K : Key; E : Element);
-- Associates an element with a given key. Overrides any previously
-- associated element.
procedure Reset;
-- Removes and frees all elements in the table
function Get (K : Key) return Element;
-- Returns the Element associated with a key or No_Element if the
-- given key has no associated element.
procedure Remove (K : Key);
-- Removes the latest inserted element pointer associated with the
-- given key if any, does nothing if none.
function Get_First return Element;
-- Returns No_Element if the HTable is empty, otherwise returns one
-- non specified element. There is no guarantee that two calls to this
-- function will return the same element.
function Get_Next return Element;
-- Returns a non-specified element that has not been returned by the
-- same function since the last call to Get_First or No_Element if
-- there is no such element. If there is no call to Set in between
-- Get_Next calls, all the elements of the HTable will be traversed.
procedure Get_First (K : in out Key; E : out Element);
-- This version of the iterator returns a key/element pair. A non-
-- specified entry is returned, and there is no guarantee that two
-- calls to this procedure will return the same element. If the table
-- is empty, E is set to No_Element, and K is unchanged, otherwise
-- K and E are set to the first returned entry.
procedure Get_Next (K : in out Key; E : out Element);
-- This version of the iterator returns a key/element pair. It returns
-- a non-specified element that has not been returned since the last
-- call to Get_First. If there is no remaining element, then E is set
-- to No_Element, and the value in K is unchanged, otherwise K and E
-- are set to the next entry. If there is no call to Set in between
-- Get_Next calls, all the elements of the HTable will be traversed.
end Simple_HTable;
-------------------
-- Static_HTable --
-------------------
-- A low-level Hash-Table abstraction, not as easy to instantiate as
-- Simple_HTable but designed to allow complete control over the
-- allocation of necessary data structures. Particularly useful when
-- dynamic allocation is not desired. The model is that each Element
-- contains its own Key that can be retrieved by Get_Key. Furthermore,
-- Element provides a link that can be used by the HTable for linking
-- elements with same hash codes:
-- Element
-- +-------------------+
-- | Key |
-- +-------------------+
-- : other data :
-- +-------------------+
-- | Next Elmt |
-- +-------------------+
generic
type Header_Num is range <>;
-- An integer type indicating the number and range of hash headers
type Element (<>) is limited private;
-- The type of element to be stored. This is historically part of the
-- interface, even though it is not used at all in the operations of
-- the package.
pragma Warnings (Off, Element);
-- We have to kill warnings here, because Element is and always
-- has been unreferenced, but we cannot remove it at this stage,
-- since this unit is in wide use, and it certainly seems harmless.
type Elmt_Ptr is private;
-- The type used to reference an element (will usually be an access
-- type, but could be some other form of type such as an integer type).
Null_Ptr : Elmt_Ptr;
-- The null value of the Elmt_Ptr type
with procedure Set_Next (E : Elmt_Ptr; Next : Elmt_Ptr);
with function Next (E : Elmt_Ptr) return Elmt_Ptr;
-- The type must provide an internal link for the sake of the
-- staticness of the HTable.
type Key is limited private;
with function Get_Key (E : Elmt_Ptr) return Key;
with function Hash (F : Key) return Header_Num;
with function Equal (F1, F2 : Key) return Boolean;
package Static_HTable is
procedure Reset;
-- Resets the hash table by setting all its elements to Null_Ptr. The
-- effect is to clear the hash table so that it can be reused. For the
-- most common case where Elmt_Ptr is an access type, and Null_Ptr is
-- null, this is only needed if the same table is reused in a new
-- context. If Elmt_Ptr is other than an access type, or Null_Ptr is
-- other than null, then Reset must be called before the first use
-- of the hash table.
procedure Set (E : Elmt_Ptr);
-- Insert the element pointer in the HTable
function Get (K : Key) return Elmt_Ptr;
-- Returns the latest inserted element pointer with the given Key
-- or null if none.
function Present (K : Key) return Boolean;
-- True if an element whose Get_Key is K is in the table
function Set_If_Not_Present (E : Elmt_Ptr) return Boolean;
-- If Present (Get_Key (E)), returns False. Otherwise, does Set (E), and
-- then returns True. Present (Get_Key (E)) is always True afterward,
-- and the result True indicates E is newly Set.
procedure Remove (K : Key);
-- Removes the latest inserted element pointer associated with the
-- given key if any, does nothing if none.
function Get_First return Elmt_Ptr;
-- Returns Null_Ptr if the HTable is empty, otherwise returns one
-- non specified element. There is no guarantee that two calls to this
-- function will return the same element.
function Get_Next return Elmt_Ptr;
-- Returns a non-specified element that has not been returned by the
-- same function since the last call to Get_First or Null_Ptr if
-- there is no such element or Get_First has never been called. If
-- there is no call to 'Set' in between Get_Next calls, all the
-- elements of the HTable will be traversed.
end Static_HTable;

-- Hash --

-- A generic hashing function working on String keys
