STC sset: Sorted Set

A sset is an associative container that contains a sorted set of unique objects of type i_key. Sorting is done using the key comparison function keyCompare. Search, removal, and insertion operations have logarithmic complexity. sset is implemented as an AA-tree.

See the c++ class std::set for a functional description.

Header file and declaration

#define i_TYPE <ct>,<kt> // shorthand to define i_type,i_key
#define i_type <t>       // container type name (default: sset_{i_key})
#define i_key <t>        // element type: REQUIRED. Defines sset_X_value
#define i_cmp <f>        // three-way compare two i_keyraw* : REQUIRED IF i_keyraw is a non-integral type
#define i_keydrop <f>    // destroy key func - defaults to empty destruct
#define i_keyclone <f>   // REQUIRED IF i_keydrop defined

#define i_keyraw <t>     // convertion "raw" type - defaults to i_key
#define i_keyfrom <f>    // convertion func i_keyraw => i_key - defaults to plain copy
#define i_keyto <f>      // convertion func i_key* => i_keyraw - defaults to plain copy

#define i_tag <s>        // alternative typename: sset_{i_tag}. i_tag defaults to i_key
#include "stc/sset.h"

X should be replaced by the value of i_tag in all of the following documentation.

Example

#define i_implement
#include "stc/cstr.h"

#define i_type SSet
#define i_key_str
#include "stc/sset.h"

int main(void)
{
    SSet second = c_init(SSet, {"red", "green", "blue"});
    SSet third={0}, fourth={0}, fifth={0};

    c_forlist (i, const char*, {"orange", "pink", "yellow"})
        SSet_emplace(&third, *i.ref);

    SSet_emplace(&fourth, "potatoes");
    SSet_emplace(&fourth, "milk");
    SSet_emplace(&fourth, "flour");

    // Copy all to fifth:

    fifth = SSet_clone(second);

    c_foreach (i, SSet, third)
        SSet_emplace(&fifth, cstr_str(i.ref));

    c_foreach (i, SSet, fourth)
        SSet_emplace(&fifth, cstr_str(i.ref));

    printf("fifth contains:\n\n");
    c_foreach (i, SSet, fifth)
        printf("%s\n", cstr_str(i.ref));

    c_drop(SSet, &second, &third, &fourth, &fifth);
}

Output:

fifth contains:

blue
flour
green
milk
