FreeBasic containers (map , vector , list , queue , stack , hashtable)

Post by VANYA »

Hi All!

Implementation of dynamic data types for Freebasic. This implementation is built on the basis of templates (macros), which makes it possible to use it for almost any data type.

In stock:

1) MAP - dictionary (associative array), created on the basis of a balanced tree
2) VECTOR - dynamic array, with the ability to insert and delete any number of cells and much more useful opportunities
3) LIST - doubly linked list
4) QUEUE
5) STACK
6) HashTable - dictionary (unordered data).

Full description, examples and possibilities are described in the help.

@Vanya,
Thanks for the much needed library.
I just download it and started reading the chm file. When I read about the list, I found this.
list_type - List Type (Data Type to save in List) . Data type can be: any standart type , including pointers, except (any ptr)
Can I use my own UDT ?

Hi kcvinu!

Code: Select all

#include "LIST.bi"

type Q
	i as Long 
	s as Zstring*10
End Type

type PQ as Q ptr ' pseudonym Q ptr

MListTemplate(PQ) ' macro for PQ

Dim p As TLISTPQ ' create list with Q ptr

'fill list
For i As Long = 0 To 10	
	dim qTemp as PQ = new Q ' alloc memory for type Q ptr
	qTemp->i = i
	qTemp->s = "value" & i
	p.Add(qTemp)	
Next
' print values
For i As Long = 0 To 10
	? (p.GetValueIndex(i))->i , (p.GetValueIndex(i))->s	
Next
' delete nodes from list
For i As Long = 10 To 0 step -1
	delete p.GetValueIndex(i) ' delete memory for type Q ptr
	p.DeleteItemIndex(i) ' delete nodes
Next
? "Size list=" , p.GetSize()
sleep
You can work with a type using vectors (in my opinion, this is more convenient):

Code: Select all

#include "VECTOR.bi"

type Q
   i as Long
   s as Zstring*10
End Type

type pQ as Q ptr

MVectorTemplate(pQ ,  1 )

dim V as TVECTORPQ

for i as Long = 0 to 10
	dim t as Q
	t.i = i
	t.s = "value" & i
	V.push_back(@t)
Next

for i as Long = 0 to V.size()-1
	? V[i]->i , V[i]->s
Next

V.clear()
Sleep
In addition, vectors have the same data access speed as arrays, that is, faster than in a linked list.

What about more data structures? Before your library, I tried to use klib with FreeBASIC but always failed:

Dear VANYA

Thank you for adding HashTable to your Containers.
I like HashTable because it can be used to prevent duplicate keys and to count the number of duplicate keys in the registered data.
I made a sample program because WSTRING (Japanese characters) can be used for key_type in MHashTemplate(key_type , data_type).
This program outputs the expected result.
However, in this case of this program, I got the same result even if I specified ZSTRING for key_type........

P.S.
It's trivial, but I think the description "Declare Sub DeleteNode (nKey As key_type)" on the DeleteItem page in the CHM help is "Declare Sub DeleteItem (nKey As key_type)".

Hi Makoto!

There is a difference and it is that a different amount of memory is allocated.

Zstring allocated 1 byte * number of characters
Wstring is allocated 2 bytes * number of characters (for Windows) or 4 bytes * number of characters (for Linux)

The result should be the same, because HASH is calculated for the key_type value. Inside the HASH keys for the WSTRING and ZSTRING strings is different, but when filling and comparing, the situation will be the same. For instance:

For ZSTRINGKEY:
1) Add a row with the QQQ key to the table and when calculating it HASH = 111
2) Check if there is a line with the key QQQ. But before checking, HASH is calculated for the key and it will also be equal to 111 , so there is such a key.

For WSTRINGKEY:
1) Add a row to the table with the key QQQ and when calculating it HASH = 222
2) Check if there is a line with the key QQQ. But before checking, HASH is calculated for the key and it will also be equal to 222 , which means that there is such a key.

As you can see, it doesn't matter what HASH the key has internally, the main thing is that the result for the same string will be the same.
It's trivial, but I think the description "Declare Sub DeleteNode (nKey As key_type)" on the DeleteItem page in the CHM help is "Declare Sub DeleteItem (nKey As key_type)".
Thanks, everything is fixed now. Archive updated.

Dear VANYA

Thank you for letting me know immediately.

I did a test to register a huge number of keys, 11,881,376.
Interestingly, on my Win10 computer, MHashTemplate(WString , ZString) took 33 seconds and MHashTemplate(ZString , ZString) took 39 seconds, slightly more time.
In either case, I'm thrilled that your HashTemplate runs fast.

Greetings!

This container library is easy to understand and use to me.When I tried to run the examples from the chm documents,I noticed the Vector insert and push_back behavior is not as I expected.Can anybody help on this?

As mentioned above,my confusion is focused on the vector.
1.In testvector(),Dim As TVECTORLONG Ptr pv = New TVECTORLONG(2),does this mean the vector size is 2?or 3?([0],[1],[2]) Please see below output screenshot for further information regarding why I was confused.
2.I can call at() assignment again and again and the compiler won't say anything when compiling,but the result is not as expected.part of the at() assignment doen't insert the value to the vector.
3.Does insert() and push_back always resize the vector?

Regarding teststack(),Inserting asian characters got a out of range result-->

Thnaks !!! :roll:
Maybe one day...
1.In testvector(),Dim As TVECTORLONG Ptr pv = New TVECTORLONG(2),does this mean the vector size is 2?or 3?([0],[1],[2]) Please see below output screenshot for further information regarding why I was confused.
TVECTORLONG(2) = 2
I can call at() assignment again and again and the compiler won't say anything when compiling,but the result is not as expected.part of the at() assignment doen't insert the value to the vector.
at() - replaces or assigns a value to existing cells. This function does not insert a value!
3.Does insert() and push_back always resize the vector?
No not always. As needed.

I can't tell how the STRING type works with Chinese characters. Try using the WSTRING PTR type with manual memory allocation. By the way, what will this code return for you? :

Code: Select all

sub adds(psz as zstring ptr)
	? Len(*psz)
	? *psz
End Sub

dim as string s 
s = "字符串1"
? Len(s)
? s
adds(strptr(s))
sleep

TVECTORLONG(2) = 2
But why v.size=4?This is what I was confused.
