Hash table management. Maps keys to values.
The hash table associates keys (e.g. strings) to data, with relatively fast access time. The performance is proportional to the load factor of the table (number of elements / number of buckets). See Algorithm for implementation details.
There are optimized implementations for some common key types, such as strings, integers, pointers, and stringshared; custom optimizations are also permitted.
The hash table keys can be either copied or non-copied, using eina_hash_add() or eina_hash_direct_add(), respectively.
Algorithm
The Eina_Hash is implemented using an array of N "buckets", where each bucket is a pointer to a structure that is the head of a red-black tree. The array can then be indexed by the [hash_of_element mod N]. The hash_of_element is calculated using the hashing function, passed as a parameter to the eina_hash_new function. N is the number of buckets (array positions), and is calculated based on the buckets_power_size (argument of eina_hash_new too). The following picture illustrates the basic idea:
Adding an element to the hash table involves the following steps:
- calculate the hash for that key (using the specified hash function);
- calculate the array position [hash mod N];
- add the element to the rbtree on that position.
The first two steps have constant time, proportional to the hash function being used. Adding the key to the rbtree will be proportional to the number of keys in that bucket.
The average lookup cost depends on the number of keys per bucket (load factor) of the table, assuming the distribution of keys is sufficiently uniform.
Performance
Keeping the load factor small will improve the hash table performance. But increasing the buckets_power_size will also increase the memory consumption. The default hash table creation functions provides enough buckets for most cases. If just a few string keys (less than 30) will be added to the hash table, eina_hash_string_small_new should be used, since it reduces the memory consumption for the buckets without causing too many collisions. However, eina_hash_string_small_new still uses the same hash calculation function that eina_hash_string_superfast_new, which is more complex than eina_hash_string_djb2_new. The latter has a faster hash computation function, but that will imply a not so good distribution. But if just a few keys are being added, this is not a problem, it will still have not many collisions and be faster to calculate the hash than in a hash created with eina_hash_string_small_new and eina_hash_string_superfast_new.
A simple comparison between them would be:
djb2
- faster hash function - 256 buckets (higher memory consumption)string_small
- slower hash function but less collisions - 32 buckets (lower memory consumption)string_superfast
- slower hash function but less collisions - 256 buckets (higher memory consumption) - not randomized, avoid it on public remote interface.
Basically for a very small number of keys (10 or less), djb2
should be used, or string_small
if you have a restriction on memory usage. And for a higher number of keys, string_superfast
should be preferred if not used on a public remote interface.
If just stringshared keys are being added, use eina_hash_stringshared_new. If a lot of keys will be added to the hash table (e.g. more than 1000), then it's better to increase the buckets_power_size. See eina_hash_new for more details.
When adding a new key to a hash table, use eina_hash_add or eina_hash_direct_add (the latter if this key is already stored elsewhere). If the key may be already inside the hash table, rather than checking with eina_hash_find followed by eina_hash_add, one can use just eina_hash_set (this will change the data pointed by this key if it was already present in the table).

Eina_Bool eina_hash_add | ( | Eina_Hash * | hash, |

const void * | data | ||
) |
Adds an entry to the given hash table.
- Parameters:
-
[in,out] hash The given hash table. Cannot be NULL
.[in] key A unique key. Cannot be NULL
.[in] data The data to associate with the string given by key
. Cannot beNULL
.
- Returns:
- EINA_FALSE if an error occurred, EINA_TRUE otherwise.
This function adds key
to hash
. key
must be unique within the hash table so that eina_hash_find() and eina_hash_del() operate on the correct data item.
Key uniqueness varies depending on the type of hash:
a stringshared Eina_Hash needs unique pointers (which implies unique strings). All other string hash types require that the strings themselves are unique. Pointer, int32 and int64 hashes need to have unique values. Failure to use sufficient uniqueness will result in unexpected results when inserting data pointers accessed with eina_hash_find(), and removed with eina_hash_del().
Key strings are case sensitive.

void eina_hash_free | ( | Eina_Hash * | hash | ) |
Frees the given hash table's resources.
- Parameters:
-
[in] hash The hash table to be freed.
This function frees memory allocated for the hash
and to its internal buckets.
If data_free_cb
was specified at creation time in eina_hash_new, it will be called for each element as it gets freed. If the callback was not specified, then any data in these elements may now be lost, if not stored or freed elsewhere.
If hash
is NULL
, the function returns immediately.

extern Eina_Hash *hash; eina_hash_free(hash); hash = NULL;

) | [static] |
Hash function from http://web.archive.org/web/20071223173210/http://www.concentric.net/~Ttwang/tech/inthash.htm.
- Parameters:
-
[in] pkey The key to hash. [in] len The length of the key.
- Returns:
- The hash value.
Eina_Hash* eina_hash_int32_new | ( | Eina_Free_Cb | data_free_cb | ) |
Creates a new hash table for use with 32bit integers.
- Parameters:
-
[in] data_free_cb The function called on each value when the hash table is freed, or when an item is deleted from it. NULL
can be passed as callback.
- Returns:
- The new hash table, or

This function creates a new hash table where keys are 32bit integers. When adding or looking up in the hash table, pointers to 32bit integers must be passed. They can be addresses on the stack if you let the eina_hash copy the key. Values can then be looked up with pointers other than the original key pointer that was used to add values. This method is not suitable to match string keys as it would only match the first character.
