Field Detail

### fTableSize

    protected int fTableSize

  Default table size.

### fBuckets

    protected SymbolHash.Entry[] fBuckets

  Buckets.

### fNum

    protected int fNum

  Number of elements.

Constructor Detail

### SymbolHash

    public SymbolHash()

  Constructs a key table with the default size.

### SymbolHash

    public SymbolHash(int size)

  Constructs a key table with a given size.
  Parameters:
    `size` - the size of the key table.

Method Detail

### put

    public void put(java.lang.Object key,
                    java.lang.Object value)

  Adds the key/value mapping to the key table. If the key already exists, the previous value associated with this key is overwritten by the new value.
  Parameters:
    `key` -
    `value` -

### get

    public java.lang.Object get(java.lang.Object key)

  Get the value associated with the given key.
  Parameters:
    `key` -
  Returns:
    the value associated with the given key.

### getLength

    public int getLength()

  Get the number of key/value pairs stored in this table.
  Returns:
    the number of key/value pairs stored in this table.

### getValues

    public int getValues(java.lang.Object[] elements,
                         int from)

  Add all values to the given array. The array must have enough entry.
  Parameters:
    `elements` - the array to store the elements
    `from` - where to start store element in the array
  Returns:
    number of elements copied to the array

### makeClone

    public SymbolHash makeClone()

  Make a clone of this object.

### clear

    public void clear()

  Remove all key/value assocaition. This tries to save a bit of GC'ing by at least keeping the fBuckets array around.

### search

    protected SymbolHash.Entry search(java.lang.Object key,
                                      int bucket)
