Standard C Library Functions                                       hsearch(3C)



NAME
       hsearch, hcreate, hdestroy - manage hash search tables

SYNOPSIS
       #include <search.h>

       ENTRY *hsearch(ENTRY item, ACTION action);


       int hcreate(size_t nel);


       void hdestroy(void);

DESCRIPTION
       The  hsearch() function is a hash-table search routine generalized from
       Knuth (6.4) Algorithm D. It returns a pointer into a hash  table  indi‐
       cating  the  location  at  which  an entry can be found. The comparison
       function used by hsearch() is strcmp() (see string(3C)). The item argu‐
       ment  is  a  structure of type ENTRY (defined in the <search.h> header)
       containing two pointers: item.key points to  the  comparison  key,  and
       item.data  points  to  any  other  data to be associated with that key.
       (Pointers to types other than void should be cast to  pointer-to-void.)
       The  action argument is a member of an enumeration type ACTION (defined
       in <search.h>) indicating the disposition of the entry if it cannot  be
       found in the table. ENTER indicates that the item should be inserted in
       the table at an appropriate point. Given a  duplicate  of  an  existing
       item,  the  new  item is not entered and hsearch() returns a pointer to
       the existing item. FIND indicates that no entry should be made.  Unsuc‐
       cessful resolution is indicated by the return of a null pointer.


       The  hcreate()  function  allocates sufficient space for the table, and
       must be called before hsearch() is used. The nel argument is  an  esti‐
       mate of the maximum number of entries that the table will contain. This
       number may be adjusted upward by the algorithm in order to obtain  cer‐
       tain mathematically favorable circumstances.


       The  hdestroy() function destroys the search table, and may be followed
       by another call to hcreate().

RETURN VALUES
       The hsearch() function returns a null pointer if either the  action  is
       FIND and the item could not be found or the action is ENTER and the ta‐
       ble is full.


       The hcreate() function returns 0 if it cannot allocate sufficient space
       for the table.

USAGE
       The hsearch() and hcreate() functions use malloc(3C) to allocate space.


       Only one hash search table may be active at any given time.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1 Example to read in strings.



       The  following example will read in strings followed by two numbers and
       store them in a hash table, discarding duplicates. It will then read in
       strings and find the matching entry in the hash table and print it.
