Common vector operations

UVec_T uvec(symbol T)

Initializes a new vector.

Note

The returned object must be destroyed by calling uvec_deinit().

Parameters:
  • T – Vector type.

Returns:

Initialized vector instance.

UVec_T uvec_assign(symbol T, T *array, ulib_uint count)

Initializes a new vector by taking ownership of the specified array, which must have been dynamically allocated.

Note

The returned object must be destroyed by calling uvec_deinit().

Note

Due to the internals of UVec(T) , you must not attempt to access the buffer after calling this function as it may have been deallocated.

Parameters:
  • T – Vector type.

  • array – Array.

  • count – Number of elements in the array.

Returns:

Initialized vector.

UVec_T uvec_wrap(symbol T, T *array, ulib_uint count)

You must not call uvec_deinit() on a vector initialized with this function.

Note

The array will never be resized, and it is assumed it can contain any number of elements. This is also reflected by uvec_size() returning ULIB_UINT_MAX for vectors initialized with this function. It is up to you to avoid overflowing the underlying buffer.

  • in – Element to push.

  • out[out] Removed element.

bool uvec_min_heapq_replace(symbol T, UVec_T *vec, T in, T *out)

Pops the minimum, and pushes in into the queue.

Similar to pop followed by push, but with better performance.

Note

If the queue is empty, in is not pushed.

Parameters:
  • T – Vector type.

  • vec – Vector instance.

  • in – Element to push.

  • out[out] Removed element.

Returns:

True if the operation succeeded, false if the queue was empty.

bool uvec_min_heapq_remove(symbol T, UVec_T *vec, T item)

Removes the specified item from the queue.

Parameters:
  • T – Vector type.

  • vec – Vector instance.

  • item – Element to remove.

Returns:

True if the element was found and removed, false otherwise.
