THashTable Class Reference

THashTable implements a hash table to store TObject's.

The hash value is calculated using the value returned by the TObject's Hash() function. Each class inheriting from TObject can override Hash() as it sees fit.

THashTable does not preserve the insertion order of the objects. If the insertion order is important AND fast retrieval is needed use THashList instead.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ THashTable() [1/2]

THashTable::THashTable ( const THashTable )
private

◆ THashTable() [2/2]

THashTable::THashTable ( Int_t  capacity = TCollection::kInitHashTableCapacity,
Int_t  rehashlevel = 0 
)

Create a THashTable object.

Capacity is the initial hashtable capacity (i.e. number of slots), by default kInitHashTableCapacity = 17, and rehashlevel is the value at which a rehash will be triggered. I.e. when the average size of the linked lists at a slot becomes longer than rehashlevel then the hashtable will be resized and refilled to reduce the collision rate to about 1. The higher the collision rate, i.e. the longer the linked lists, the longer lookup will take. If rehashlevel=0 the table will NOT automatically be rehashed. Use Rehash() for manual rehashing.

Definition at line 43 of file THashTable.cxx.

◆ ~THashTable()

THashTable::~THashTable ( )
virtual

Delete a hashtable.

Objects are not deleted unless the THashTable is the owner (set via SetOwner()).

◆ Add()

void THashTable::Add ( TObject obj)
virtual

Add object to the hash table.

Its position in the table will be determined by the value returned by its Hash() function.

void THashTable::AddBefore ( const TObject before,
TObject obj

Definition at line 254 of file THashTable.cxx.

◆ GetListForObject() [2/2]

const TList * THashTable::GetListForObject ( const TObject obj) const

Return the TList corresponding to object's hash value.

THashTable& THashTable::operator= ( const THashTable )
private

◆ Print()

void THashTable::Print ( Option_t option,
Int_t  recurse 
) const
virtual

Print the collection header and its elements.

If recurse is non-zero, descend into printing of collection-entries with recurse - 1. This means, if recurse is negative, the recursion is infinite.

If option contains "details", Print will show the content of each of the hash-slots.

Option is passed recursively.

Reimplemented from TCollection.

Definition at line 314 of file THashTable.cxx.

◆ Rehash()

void THashTable::Rehash ( Int_t  newCapacity,
Bool_t  checkObjValidity = kTRUE 
)

Rehash the hashtable.

If the collision rate becomes too high (i.e. the average size of the linked lists become too long) then lookup efficiency decreases since relatively long lists have to be searched every time. To improve performance rehash the hashtable. This resizes the table to newCapacity slots and refills the table. Use AverageCollisions() to check if you need to rehash. Set checkObjValidity to kFALSE if you know that all objects in the table are still valid (i.e. have not been deleted from the system in the meanwhile).

Definition at line 351 of file THashTable.cxx.

◆ Remove()

TObject * THashTable::Remove ( TObject obj)
virtual

Remove object from the hashtable.

Implements TCollection.

Definition at line 402 of file THashTable.cxx.

◆ RemoveSlow()

TObject * THashTable::RemoveSlow ( TObject obj)

Remove object from the hashtable without using the hash value.

Definition at line 427 of file THashTable.cxx.
