NAME

classes/fixedpmcarray.pmc - fixed size array for PMCs only

DESCRIPTION

This class, FixedPMCArray, implements an array of fixed size, which stores PMCs, it puts things into Integer, Float, or String PMCs as appropriate

Functions

METHOD void sort(PMC *cmp_func): Sort this array, optionally using the provided cmp_func

Methods

void init(): Initializes the array.
void morph(INTVAL type): Const classes must have a morph().
void destroy(): Destroys the array.
PMC *clone(): Creates and returns a copy of the array.
INTVAL get_bool(): Returns whether the array has any elements (meaning been initialized, for a fixed sized array).
INTVAL elements()
INTVAL get_integer(): Returns the number of elements in the array.
STRING *get_string(): Returns the number of elements in the array as a Parrot string. (??? -leo)
STRING *get_repr(): Returns a string representation of the array contents. TODO implement freeze/thaw and use that instead.
INTVAL get_integer_keyed_int(INTVAL key): Returns the integer value of the element at index key.
INTVAL get_integer_keyed(PMC *key): Returns the integer value of the element at index *key.
FLOATVAL get_number_keyed_int(INTVAL key): Returns the floating-point value of the element at index key.
FLOATVAL get_number_keyed (PMC *key): Returns the floating-point value of the element at index *key.
STRING *get_string_keyed_int(INTVAL key): Returns the Parrot string value of the element at index key.
STRING *get_string_keyed(PMC *key): Returns the Parrot string value of the element at index *key.
PMC *get_pmc_keyed_int(INTVAL key): Returns the PMC value of the element at index key.
PMC *get_pmc_keyed(PMC *key): Returns the PMC value of the element at index *key.
void set_integer_native(INTVAL size): Resizes the array to size elements.
void set_integer_keyed_int(INTVAL key, INTVAL value): Sets the integer value of the element at index key to value.
void set_integer_keyed(PMC *key, INTVAL value): Sets the integer value of the element at index key to value.
void set_number_keyed_int(INTVAL key, FLOATVAL value): Sets the floating-point value of the element at index key to value.
void set_number_keyed(PMC *key, FLOATVAL value): Sets the floating-point value of the element at index key to value.
void set_string_keyed_int(INTVAL key, STRING *value): Sets the Parrot string value of the element at index key to value.
void set_string_keyed(PMC *key, STRING *value): Sets the string value of the element at index key to value.
void set_pmc_keyed_int(INTVAL key, PMC *src): Sets the PMC value of the element at index key to *src.
void set_pmc_keyed(PMC *key, PMC *value): Sets the string value of the element at index key to value.
INTVAL is_equal (PMC *value): The == operation. Compares two array to hold equal elements.
PMC *slice (PMC *key, INTVAL f): Return a new iterator for the slice PMC key if f == 0.; Return a new pythonic array slice if f == 1.
PMC *get_iter (): Return a new iterator for SELF.
void visit(visit_info *info): This is used by freeze/thaw to visit the contents of the array.; *info is the visit info, (see include/parrot/pmc_freeze.h).
void freeze(visit_info *info): Used to archive the array.
void thaw(visit_info *info): Used to unarchive the array.

TODO

currently this uses Perl types.
