NAMETie::IxHash − ordered associative arrays for Perl

SYNOPSIS​ # simple usage ​ use Tie::IxHash; ​ tie HASHVARIABLE, 'Tie::IxHash' [, LIST]; ​ ​ # OO interface with more powerful features ​ use Tie::IxHash; ​ TIEOBJECT = Tie::IxHash−>new( [LIST] ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Splice( OFFSET [, LENGTH [, LIST]] ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Push( LIST ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Pop; ​ TIEOBJECT−>Shift; ​ TIEOBJECT−>Unshift( LIST ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Keys( [LIST] ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Values( [LIST] ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Indices( LIST ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Delete( [LIST] ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Replace( OFFSET, VALUE, [KEY] ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>Reorder( LIST ); ​ TIEOBJECT−>SortByKey; ​ TIEOBJECT−>SortByValue; ​ TIEOBJECT−>Length;

DESCRIPTIONThis Perl module implements Perl hashes that preserve the order in which the hash elements were added. The order is not affected when values corresponding to existing keys in the IxHash are changed. The elements can also be set to any arbitrary supplied order. The familiar perl array operations can also be performed on the IxHash.

Standard TIEHASH InterfaceThe standard TIEHASH mechanism is available. This interface is recommended for simple uses, since the usage is exactly the same as regular Perl hashes after the tie is declared.

Object InterfaceThis module also provides an extended object-oriented interface that can be used for more powerful operations with the IxHash. The following methods are available: FETCH, STORE, DELETE, EXISTS These standard TIEHASH methods mandated by Perl can be used directly. See the tie entry in perlfunc(1) for details. Push, Pop, Shift, Unshift, Splice These additional methods resembling Perl functions are available for operating on key-value pairs in the IxHash. The behavior is the same as the corresponding perl functions, except when a supplied hash key already exists in the hash. In that case, the existing value is updated but its order is not affected. To unconditionally alter the order of a supplied key-value pair, first DELETE the IxHash element. Keys Returns an array of IxHash element keys corresponding to the list of supplied indices. Returns an array of all the keys if called without arguments. Note the return value is mostly only useful when used in a list context (since perl will convert it to the number of elements in the array when used in a scalar context, and that may not be very useful). If a single argument is given, returns the single key corresponding to the index. This is usable in either scalar or list context. Values Returns an array of IxHash element values corresponding to the list of supplied indices. Returns an array of all the values if called without arguments. Note the return value is mostly only useful when used in a list context (since perl will convert it to the number of elements in the array when used in a scalar context, and that may not be very useful). If a single argument is given, returns the single value corresponding to the index. This is usable in either scalar or list context. Indices Returns an array of indices corresponding to the supplied list of keys. Note the return value is mostly only useful when used in a list context (since perl will convert it to the number of elements in the array when used in a scalar context, and that may not be very useful). If a single argument is given, returns the single index corresponding to the key. This is usable in either scalar or list context. Delete Removes elements with the supplied keys from the IxHash. Replace Substitutes the IxHash element at the specified index with the supplied value-key pair. If a key is not supplied, simply substitutes the value at index with the supplied value. If an element with the supplied key already exists, it will be removed from the IxHash first. Reorder This method can be used to manipulate the internal order of the IxHash elements by supplying a list of keys in the desired order. Note however, that any IxHash elements whose keys are not in the list will be removed from the IxHash. Length Returns the number of IxHash elements. SortByKey Reorders the IxHash elements by textual comparison of the keys. SortByValue Reorders the IxHash elements by textual comparison of the values. Clear Resets the IxHash to its pristine state: with no elements at all.

EXAMPLE​ use Tie::IxHash; ​ ​ # simple interface ​ $t = tie(%myhash, 'Tie::IxHash', 'a' => 1, 'b' => 2); ​ %myhash = (first => 1, second => 2, third => 3); ​ $myhash{fourth} = 4; ​ @keys = keys %myhash; ​ @values = values %myhash; ​ print("y") if exists $myhash{third}; ​ ​ # OO interface ​ $t = Tie::IxHash−>new(first => 1, second => 2, third => 3); ​ $t−>Push(fourth => 4); # same as $myhash{'fourth'} = 4; ​ ($k, $v) = $t−>Pop; # $k is 'fourth', $v is 4 ​ $t−>Unshift(neg => −1, zeroth => 0); ​ ($k, $v) = $t−>Shift; # $k is 'neg', $v is −1 ​ @oneandtwo = $t−>Splice(1, 2, foo => 100, bar => 101); ​ ​ @keys = $t−>Keys; ​ @values = $t−>Values; ​ @indices = $t−>Indices('foo', 'zeroth'); ​ @itemkeys = $t−>Keys(@indices); ​ @itemvals = $t−>Values(@indices); ​ $t−>Replace(2, 0.3, 'other'); ​ $t−>Delete('second', 'zeroth'); ​ $len = $t−>Length; # number of key−value pairs ​ ​ $t−>Reorder(reverse @keys); ​ $t−>SortByKey; ​ $t−>SortByValue;

BUGSYou cannot specify a negative length to Splice. Negative indexes are OK, though.

NOTEIndexing always begins at 0 (despite the current $[ setting) for all the functions.

TODOAddition of elements with keys that already exist to the end of the IxHash must be controlled by a switch. Provide TIEARRAY interface when it stabilizes in Perl. Rewrite using XSUBs for efficiency.
