C++ allows to defined associative containers such as std::map. The values are ordered according to their keys and an ordering relation. The fifo_map is an associative container which uses the order in which keys were inserted to the container as ordering relation.
As it has the same interface than std::map, it can be used as drop-in replacement. The code is header-only (see file src/fifo_map.hpp) and only relies on the STL.
A fifo_map object has the space overhead of:
- one
std::unordered_map<Key, std::size_t>object to store the key order, - one pointer to this object in the
Compareobject.
Inserting a value (via operator[], insert) and removing a value (erase) rely on std::unordered_map::insert and std::unordered_map::erase which have O(1) average complexity and O(n) worst-case complexity. All other methods have the same performance as the equivalent std::map options.
#include "src/fifo_map.hpp"
// for convenience
using nlohmann::fifo_map;
int main() {
// create fifo_map with template arguments
fifo_map<int, std::string> m;
// add elements
m[2] = "two";
m[3] = "three";
m[1] = "one";
// output the map; will print
// 2: two
// 3: three
// 1: one
for (auto x : m) {
std::cout << x.first << ": " << x.second << "\n";
}
// delete an element
m.erase(2);
// re-add element
m[2] = "zwei";
// output the map; will print
// 3: three
// 1: one
// 2: zwei
for (auto x : m) {
std::cout << x.first << ": " << x.second << "\n";
}
}
