QuickHashIntHash::set

(PECL quickhash >= Unknown)

QuickHashIntHash::set — This method updates an entry in the hash with a new value, or adds a new one if the entry doesn't exist

Description

public function QuickHashIntHash::set(int $key, int $value): int

This method tries to update an entry with a new value. In case the entry did not yet exist, it will instead add a new entry. It returns whether the entry was added or update. If there are duplicate keys, only the first found element will get an updated value. Use QuickHashIntHash::CHECK_FOR_DUPES during hash creation to prevent duplicate keys from being part of the hash.

Parameters

key

The key of the entry to add or update.

value

The new value to set the entry with.

Return Values

2 if the entry was newly added, 1 if the entry was found and updated, or 0 if there was an error.

Examples

Example #1 QuickHashIntHash::set() example

<?php

$hash = new QuickHashIntHash(1024);

echo "Set->Add\n";
var_dump($hash->get(46692));
var_dump($hash->set(46692, 16091));
var_dump($hash->get(46692));

echo "\n\nSet->Update\n";
var_dump($hash->set(46692, 29906));
var_dump($hash->get(46692));

The above example will output something similar to:

Set->Add
bool(false)
int(2)
int(16091)

Set->Update
int(1)
int(29906)
