Detailed Description

template<class valuetype>
class dynamicarray< valuetype >

The dynamicarray class allows you to store an arbitrary number of values and access them with array-like syntax.

Internally, the class stores these values in a series of extents. The size of the initial and incremental extents are defined in the constructor.

"valuetype" can be any scalar type, including a pointer, but cannot be an array.

Ie. these are legal: dynamicarray< int > d; dynamicarray< myclass > d; dynamicarray< myclass * > d;

These are not legal and whether they work or even compile would be platform-dependent: dynamicarray< int[100] > d; dynamicarray< myclass[100] > d; dynamicarray< myclass *[100] > d;

However, it is possible to create an array of arrays by nesting dynamicarrays and/or staticarrays, like:

dynamicarray< dynamicarray< int > > d;
dynamicarray< dynamicarray< myclass > > d;
dynamicarray< dynamicarray< myclass * > > d;
dynamicarray< staticarray< int > > d;
dynamicarray< staticarray< myclass > > d;
dynamicarray< staticarray< myclass * > > d;

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

dynamicarray() [1/3]

template<class valuetype >

dynamicarray< valuetype >::dynamicarray

inline

Creates an empty instance of the dynamicarray class.

dynamicarray() [2/3]

template<class valuetype >

dynamicarray< valuetype >::dynamicarray ( uint64_t  initiallength, uint64_t  incrementlength  )

inline

Creates an empty instance of the dynamicarray class. The initial extent will be created with "initiallength" members and each successive extent will be created with "incrementlength" members.

dynamicarray() [3/3]

template<class valuetype >

dynamicarray< valuetype >::dynamicarray ( const dynamicarray< valuetype > &  v )

inline

Creates an instance of the dynamicarray class that is a copy of "v".

~dynamicarray()

template<class valuetype >

dynamicarray< valuetype >::~dynamicarray

inline

Deletes this instance of the dynamicarray class and all of its values.

Member Function Documentation

clear() [1/2]

template<class valuetype >

void dynamicarray< valuetype >::clear

inline

Clears the array, deleting all of its values.

clear() [2/2]

template<class valuetype >

void dynamicarray< valuetype >::clear ( uint64_t  initiallength, uint64_t  incrementlength  )

inline

Clears the array, deleting all of its values and resetting the lengths of the initial and incremental extents.

getLength()

template<class valuetype >

uint64_t dynamicarray< valuetype >::getLength

inline

Returns the number of elements in the array.

operator=()

template<class valuetype >

dynamicarray< valuetype > & dynamicarray< valuetype >::operator= ( const dynamicarray< valuetype > &  v )

inline

Makes this instance of the dynamicarray class identical to "v".

operator[]()

template<class valuetype >

valuetype & dynamicarray< valuetype >::operator[] ( uint64_t  index )

inline

Provides access to the "index"th element of the dynamicarray.
