More on HashCompare
There are several ways to make the HashCompare argument for concurrent_hash_map work for your own types.
Specify the HashCompare argument explicitly
Let the HashCompare default to tbb_hash_compare<Key> and do one of the following:
Define a specialization of template tbb_hash_compare<Key>.
For example, if you have keys of type Foo, and operator== is defined for Foo, you just have to provide a definition of tbb_hasher as shown below:
size_t tbb_hasher(const Foo& f) {
size_t h = ...compute hash code for f...
return h;
};In general, the definition of tbb_hash_compare<Key> or HashCompare must provide two signatures:
A method hash that maps a Key to a size_t
A method equal that determines if two keys are equal
The signatures go together in a single class because if two keys are equal, then they must hash to the same value, otherwise the hash table might not work. You could trivially meet this requirement by always hashing to 0, but that would cause tremendous inefficiency. Ideally, each key should hash to a different value, or at least the probability of two distinct keys hashing to the same value should be kept low.
The methods of HashCompare should be static unless you need to have them behave differently for different instances. If so, then you should construct the concurrent_hash_map using the constructor that takes a HashCompare as a parameter. The following example is a variation on an earlier example with instance-dependent methods. The instance performs both case-sensitive or case-insensitive hashing, and comparison, depending upon an internal flag ignore_case.
// Structure that defines hashing and comparison operations
class VariantHashCompare {
// If true, then case of letters is ignored.
bool ignore_case;
public:
size_t hash(const string& x) const {
size_t h = 0;
for(const char* s = x.c_str(); *s; s++)
h = (h*16777179)^*(ignore_case?tolower(*s):*s);
return h;
}
// True if strings are equal
bool equal(const string& x, const string& y) const {
if( ignore_case )
strcasecmp(x.c_str(), y.c_str())==0;
else
return x==y;
}
VariantHashCompare(bool ignore_case_) : ignore_case(ignore_case_) {}
};
typedef concurrent_hash_map<string,int, VariantHashCompare> VariantStringTable;
VariantStringTable CaseSensitiveTable(VariantHashCompare(false));
VariantStringTable CaseInsensitiveTable(VariantHashCompare(true));
