Supporting dictionary object</h1>
|
|
<p>The dictionary object is a <a class="el" href="doc_datatypes_obj.html">reference type</a>, so it's possible to use handles to the dictionary object when passing it around to avoid costly copies.</p>
|
|
<h2><a class="anchor" id="doc_datatypes_dictionary_addon_ops"></a>
|
|
Operators</h2>
|
|
<p><b>= assignment</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The assignment operator performs a shallow copy of the content.</p>
|
|
<p><b>[] index operator</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The index operator takes a string for the key, and returns a reference to the <a class="el" href="doc_datatypes_dictionary.html#doc_datatypes_dictionaryValue_addon">value</a>. If the key/value pair doesn't exist it will be inserted with a null value.</p>
|
|
<h2><a class="anchor" id="doc_datatypes_dictionary_addon_mthd"></a>
|
|
Methods</h2>
|
|
<p><b>void set(const string &in key, ? &in value)</b><br />
|
|
<b>void set(const string &in key, int64 &in value)</b><br />
|
|
<b>void set(const string &in key, double &in value)</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Sets a key/value pair in the dictionary. If the key already exists, the value will be changed.</p>
|
|
<p><b>bool get(const string &in key, ? &out value) const</b><br />
|
|
<b>bool get(const string &in key, int64 &out value) const</b><br />
|
|
<b>bool get(const string &in key, double &out value) const</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Retrieves the value corresponding to the key. The methods return false if the key is not found, and in this case the value will maintain its default value based on the type.</p>
|
|
<p><b>array<string> @getKeys() const</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This method returns an array with all of the existing keys in the dictionary. The order of the keys in the array is undefined.</p>
|
|
<p><b>bool exists(const string &in key) const</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Returns true if the key exists in the dictionary.</p>
|
|
<p><b>bool delete(const string &in key)</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Removes the key and the corresponding value from the dictionary. Returns false if the key wasn't found.</p>
|
|
<p><b>void deleteAll()</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Removes all entries in the dictionary.</p>
|
|
<p><b>bool isEmpty() const</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Returns true if the dictionary doesn't hold any entries.</p>
|
|
<p><b>uint getSize() const</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Returns the number of keys in the dictionary.</p>
|
|

|
|
Supporting dictionaryValue object</h1>
|
|
<p>The dictionaryValue type is how the <a class="el" href="doc_datatypes_dictionary.html#doc_datatypes_dictionary_addon">dictionary</a> object stores the values. When accessing the values through the dictionary index operator a reference to a dictionaryValue is returned.</p>
|
|
<p>The dictionaryValue type itself is a value type, i.e. no handles to it can be held, but it can hold handles to other objects as well as values of any type.</p>
|
|
<h2><a class="anchor" id="doc_datatypes_dictionaryValue_addon_ops"></a>
|
|
Operators</h2>
|
|
<p><b>= assignment</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The value assignment operator should be used to copy a value into the dictionaryValue.</p>
|
|
<p><b>@= handle assignment</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The handle assignment operator should be used to set the dictionaryValue to refer to an object instance.</p>
|
|
<p><b>cast<type> cast operator</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The cast operator is used to dynamically cast the handle held in the dictionaryValue to the desired type. If the dictionaryValue doesn't hold a handle, or the handle is not compatible with the desired type, the cast operator will return a null handle.</p>
|
|
<p><b>type() conversion operator</b><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The conversion operator is used to return a new value of the desired type. If no value conversion is found, an uninitialized value of the desired type is returned. </p>
