CMapStringToPtr Class

Supports maps of void pointers keyed by CString objects.

class CMapStringToPtr : public CObject

Members

The member functions of CMapStringToPtr are similar to the member functions of class CMapStringToOb. Because of this similarity, you can use the CMapStringToOb reference documentation for member function specifics. Wherever you see a CObject pointer as a function parameter or return value, substitute a pointer to void.

BOOL CMapStringToOb::Lookup( const char* <key>,

CObject*& <rValue> ) const;

for example, translates to

BOOL CMapStringToPtr::Lookup( LPCTSTR <key>, void*& <rValue> )

const;

Public Constructors

Name	Description
CMapStringToOb::CMapStringToOb	Constructor.

Public Methods

Name	Description
CMapStringToOb::GetCount	Returns the number of elements in this map.
CMapStringToOb::GetHashTableSize	Determines the current number of elements in the hash table.
CMapStringToOb::GetNextAssoc	Gets the next element for iterating.
CMapStringToOb::GetSize	Returns the number of elements in this map.
CMapStringToOb::GetStartPosition	Returns the position of the first element.
CMapStringToOb::HashKey	Calculates the hash value of a specified key.
CMapStringToOb::InitHashTable	Initializes the hash table.
CMapStringToOb::IsEmpty	Tests for the empty-map condition (no elements).
CMapStringToOb::Lookup	Looks up a void pointer based on the void pointer key. The pointer value, not the entity it points to, is used for the key comparison.
CMapStringToOb::LookupKey	Returns a reference to the key associated with the specified key value.
CMapStringToOb::RemoveAll	Removes all the elements from this map.
CMapStringToOb::RemoveKey	Removes an element specified by a key.
CMapStringToOb::SetAt	Inserts an element into the map; replaces an existing element if a matching key is found.

Public Operators

Name	Description
CMapStringToOb::operator [ ]	Inserts an element into the map — operator substitution for SetAt.

Remarks

CMapStringToPtr incorporates the IMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC macro to support run-time type access and dumping to a CDumpContext object. If you need a dump of individual map elements, you must set the depth of the dump context to 1 or greater.

String-to-pointer maps may not be serialized.

When a CMapStringToPtr object is deleted, or when its elements are removed, the CString key objects and the words are removed.
