.SH DESCRIPTION
The QIntDict class is a template class that provides a dictionary based on long keys.
.PP
QIntDict is implemented as a template class. Define a template instance QIntDict<X> to create a dictionary that operates on pointers to X (X*).
.PP
A dictionary is a collection of key-value pairs. The key is an \fClong\fR used for insertion, removal and lookup. The value is a pointer. Dictionaries provide very fast insertion and lookup.
.PP
Example:
.PP
.nf
.br
    QIntDict<QLineEdit> fields;
.br
    for ( int i = 0; i < 3; i++ )
.br
        fields.insert( i, new QLineEdit( this ) );
.br
.br
    fields[0]->setText( "Homer" );
.br
    fields[1]->setText( "Simpson" );
.br
    fields[2]->setText( "45" );
.br
.br
    QIntDictIterator<char> it( fields ); // See QIntDictIterator
.br
    for ( ; it.current(); ++it )
.br
        cout << it.currentKey() << ": " << it.current()->text() << endl;
.br
.br
.br
    for ( int i = 0; i < 3; i++ )
.br
        cout << fields[i]->text() << " "; // Prints "Homer Simpson 45"
.br
    cout << endl;
.br
.br
    fields.remove( 1 ); // Does not delete the line edit
.br
    for ( int i = 0; i < 3; i++ )
.br
        if ( fields[i] )
.br
            cout << fields[i]->text() << " "; // Prints "Homer 45"
.br
.fi

.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QIntDict::QIntDict ( int size = 17 )"
Constructs a dictionary using an internal hash array of size \fIsize\fR.
.PP
Setting \fIsize\fR to a suitably large prime number (equal to or greater than the expected number of entries) makes the hash distribution better and hence the lookup faster.
.SH "QIntDict::QIntDict ( const QIntDict<type> & dict )"
Constructs a copy of \fIdict\fR.
.PP
Each item in \fIdict\fR is inserted into this dictionary. Only the pointers are copied (shallow copy).
.SH "QIntDict::~QIntDict ()"
Removes all items from the dictionary and destroys it.
.PP
All iterators that access this dictionary will be reset.
.PP
See also setAutoDelete().
.SH "bool QPtrCollection::autoDelete () const"
Returns the setting of the auto-delete option. The default is FALSE.
.PP
See also setAutoDelete().
.SH "void QIntDict::clear ()\fC [virtual]\fR"
Removes all items from the dictionary.
.PP
The removed items are deleted if auto-deletion is enabled.
.PP
All dictionary iterators that access this dictionary will be reset.
.PP
See also remove(), take() and setAutoDelete().
.PP
Reimplemented from QPtrCollection.
.SH "uint QIntDict::count () const\fC [virtual]\fR"
Returns the number of items in the dictionary.
.PP
See also isEmpty().
.PP
Reimplemented from QPtrCollection.
.SH "type * QIntDict::find ( long key ) const"
Returns the item associated with \fIkey\fR, or null if the key does not exist in the dictionary.
.PP
This function uses an internal hashing algorithm to optimize lookup.
.PP
If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the last inserted of these will be found.
.PP
Equivalent to the [] operator.
.PP
See also operator[]().
.PP
Example: table/bigtable/main.cpp.
.SH "void QIntDict::insert ( long key, const type * item )"
Insert item \fIitem\fR into the dictionary using key \fIkey\fR.
.PP
The key does not have to be unique. If multiple items are inserted with the same key, only the last item will be visible.
.PP
Null items are not allowed.
.PP
See also replace().
.PP
Example: scribble/scribble.cpp.
.SH "bool QIntDict::isEmpty () const"
Returns TRUE if the dictionary is empty; otherwise returns FALSE.
.PP
See also count().
.SH "QIntDict<type> & QIntDict::operator= ( const QIntDict<type> & dict )"
Assigns \fIdict\fR to this dictionary and returns a reference to this dictionary.
.PP
This dictionary is first cleared and then each item in \fIdict\fR is inserted into this dictionary. Only the pointers are copied (shallow copy), unless newItem() has been reimplemented.
.SH "type * QIntDict::operator[] ( long key ) const"
Returns the item associated with \fIkey\fR, or null if the key does not exist in the dictionary.
.PP
This function uses an internal hashing algorithm to optimize lookup.
.PP
If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the last inserted of these will be found.
.PP
Equivalent to the find() function.
.PP
See also find().
.SH "QDataStream & QIntDict::read ( QDataStream & s, QPtrCollection::Item & item )\fC [virtual protected]\fR"
Reads a dictionary item from the stream \fIs\fR and returns a reference to the stream.
.PP
The default implementation sets \fIitem\fR to 0.
.PP
See also write().
.SH "bool QIntDict::remove ( long key )"
Removes the item associated with \fIkey\fR from the dictionary. Returns TRUE if successful; otherwise returns FALSE, e.g. if the key does not exist in the dictionary.
.PP
If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the last inserted of these will be removed.
.PP
The removed item is deleted if auto-deletion is enabled.
.PP
All dictionary iterators that refer to the removed item will be set to point to the next item in the dictionary's traversing order.
.PP
See also take(), clear() and setAutoDelete().
.PP
Example: table/bigtable/main.cpp.
.SH "void QIntDict::replace ( long key, const type * item )"
If the dictionary has key \fIkey\fR, this key's item is replaced with \fIitem\fR. If the dictionary doesn't contain key \fIkey\fR, \fIitem\fR is inserted into the dictionary using key \fIkey\fR.
.PP
Null items are not allowed.
.PP
Equivalent to:
.PP
.nf
.br
    QIntDict<char> dict;
.br
    //  ...
.br
    if ( dict.find(key) )
.br
        dict.remove( key );
.br
    dict.insert( key, item );
.br
.fi
.PP
If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the last inserted of these will be replaced.
.PP
See also insert().
.PP
Example: table/bigtable/main.cpp.
.SH "void QIntDict::resize ( uint newsize )"
Changes the size of the hashtable to \fInewsize\fR. The contents of the dictionary are preserved, but all iterators on the dictionary become invalid.
.SH "void QPtrCollection::setAutoDelete ( bool enable )"
Sets the collection to auto-delete its contents if \fIenable\fR is TRUE and to never delete them if \fIenable\fR is FALSE.
.PP
If auto-deleting is turned on, all the items in a collection are deleted when the collection itself is deleted. This is convenient if the collection has the only pointer to the items.
.PP
The default setting is FALSE, for safety. If you turn it on, be careful about copying the collection - you might find yourself with two collections deleting the same items.
.PP
Note that the auto-delete setting may also affect other functions in subclasses. For example, a subclass that has a remove() function will remove the item from its data structure, and if auto-delete is enabled, will also delete the item.
.PP
See also autoDelete().
.PP
Examples:
.)l grapher/grapher.cpp, scribble/scribble.cpp and table/bigtable/main.cpp.
.SH "uint QIntDict::size () const"
Returns the size of the internal hash array (as specified in the constructor).
.PP
See also count().
.SH "void QIntDict::statistics () const"
Debugging-only function that prints out the dictionary distribution using qDebug().
.SH "type * QIntDict::take ( long key )"
Takes the item associated with \fIkey\fR out of the dictionary without deleting it (even if auto-deletion is enabled).
.PP
If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the last inserted of these will be taken.
.PP
Returns a pointer to the item taken out, or null if the key does not exist in the dictionary.
.PP
All dictionary iterators that refer to the taken item will be set to point to the next item in the dictionary's traversing order.
.PP
See also remove(), clear() and setAutoDelete().
.SH "QDataStream & QIntDict::write ( QDataStream & s, QPtrCollection::Item ) const\fC [virtual protected]\fR"
Writes a dictionary item to the stream \fIs\fR and returns a reference to the stream.
.PP
See also read().
