Extended version of ROOT THashList.

Created by KVClassFactory on Mon Nov 30 15:00:00 2009 Author: John Frankland,,,

This collection class uses a THashList for quick look-up of objects based on the TString::Hash() value of their name, and adds all the extra functionality defined in KVSeqCollection.

Automatic rehashing of the list is enabled by default (with rehash level = 2), unlike THashList (disabled by default). Beware if objects' names change or are changed after being added to the list: a manual Rehash() is required.

Sorting the list

As THashList::Sort() is defined, we implemented a KVHashList::Sort() method which takes exactly the same argument as THashList::Sort().

Examples: MicroStat_example2.C.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ KVHashList()

KVHashList::KVHashList	(	Int_t	capacity = `TCollection::kInitHashTableCapacity`,
		Int_t	rehash = `2`
	)

Create a THashList object. Capacity is the initial hashtable capacity (i.e. number of slots), by default kInitHashTableCapacity = 17, and rehash 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 rehash 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. The default value of rehash = 2 (minimum allowed value) - automatic rehashing is enabled by default. If rehash=0 the table will NOT automatically be rehashed. Use Rehash() for manual rehashing. WARNING !!! If the name of an object in the HashList is modified, The hashlist must be Rehashed

◆ ~KVHashList()

KVHashList::~KVHashList ( )

virtual

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ AverageCollisions()

Float_t KVHashList::AverageCollisions ( ) const

Return the average collision rate. The higher the number the longer the linked lists in the hashtable, the slower the lookup. If the number is high, or lookup noticeably too slow, perfrom a Rehash()

Definition at line 64 of file KVHashList.cpp.

◆ ContainsObjectWithName()

template<typename T >

Bool_t KVHashList::ContainsObjectWithName ( const T & o )

inline

Returns true if list contains an object with the same name as o class T must have a method const char* T::GetName() const

Definition at line 47 of file KVHashList.h.

◆ GetListForObject() [1/2]

const TList * KVHashList::GetListForObject ( const char * name ) const

Return the THashTable's list (bucket) in which obj can be found based on its hash; see THashTable::GetListForObject().

Definition at line 121 of file KVHashList.cpp.

◆ GetListForObject() [2/2]

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

Return the THashTable's list (bucket) in which obj can be found based on its hash; see THashTable::GetListForObject().

Definition at line 140 of file KVHashList.cpp.

◆ Rehash()

void KVHashList::Rehash ( Int_t newCapacity = 0 )

Rehash the hashlist.

This needs to be done in two cases:

If the collision rate becomes too high (i.e. the average size of the linked lists become too long - use AverageCollisions() to check if you need to rehash.) then lookup efficiency decreases since relatively long lists have to be searched every time. To improve performance rehash the hashtable, increasing the number of slots. This method resizes the table to newCapacity slots and refills the table.
If the names of any objects in the list CHANGE, you must rehash the list (as the lookup of objects depends on the TString::Hash() value calculated from their name when they are added to the list). In this case it is not necessary to increase the capacity of the list, just call Rehash() with no arguments.

Definition at line 92 of file KVHashList.cpp.

◆ Sort()

void KVHashList::Sort ( Bool_t order = kSortAscending )
