- Generalized means over filtering table entries based on their keys,
values, or both. Either filter (retain), or optionally prune elements
that satisfy the specified predicate.
filterKeys and filterValues:
- Take a unary predicate with the signature
bool operator()(const Key& k);
- filterEntries:
Takes a binary predicate with the signature
bool operator()(const Key& k, const T& v);
==
The predicates can be normal class methods, or provide on-the-fly
using a C++ lambda. For example,
wordRes goodFields = ...;
allFieldNames.filterKeys
(
[&goodFields](const word& k){ return goodFields.match(k); }
);
Note that all classes that can match a string (eg, regExp, keyType,
wordRe, wordRes) or that are derived from a Foam::string (eg, fileName,
word) are provided with a corresponding
bool operator()(const std::string&)
that either performs a regular expression or a literal match.
This allows such objects to be used directly as a unary predicate
when filtering any string hash keys.
Note that HashSet and hashedWordList both have the proper
operator() methods that also allow them to be used as a unary
predicate.
- Similar predicate selection with the following:
* tocKeys, tocValues, tocEntries
* countKeys, countValues, countEntries
except that instead of pruning, there is a simple logic inversion.
- provide key_iterator/const_key_iterator for all hashes,
reuse directly for HashSet as iterator/const_iterator, respectively.
- additional keys() method for HashTable that returns a wrapped to
a pair of begin/end const_iterators with additional size/empty
information that allows these to be used directly by anything else
expecting things with begin/end/size. Unfortunately does not yet
work with std::distance().
Example,
for (auto& k : labelHashTable.keys())
{
...
}
Weird one. Reported crash with gcc452 with end() iterator returning a copy.
The end() iterator returned was not initialised. No idea why & could not
repeat.
