<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
The TQIntDict class is a template class that provides a dictionary based on long keys.
<p>
<p>
<p> <a href="ntqmap.html">TQMap</a> is an STL-compatible alternative to this class.
<p> TQIntDict is implemented as a template class. Define a template
instance TQIntDict&lt;X&gt; to create a dictionary that operates on
pointers to X (X*).
<p> A dictionary is a collection of key-value pairs. The key is an <tt>long</tt> used for insertion, removal and lookup. The value is a
pointer. Dictionaries provide very fast insertion and lookup.
<p> Example:
<pre>
TQIntDict&lt;TQLineEdit&gt; fields; // long int keys, TQLineEdit* values
for ( int i = 0; i &lt; 3; i++ )
fields.<a href="#insert">insert</a>( i, new <a href="ntqlineedit.html">TQLineEdit</a>( this ) );
fields[0]-&gt;setText( "Homer" );
fields[1]-&gt;setText( "Simpson" );
fields[2]-&gt;setText( "45" );
<a href="qintdictiterator.html">TQIntDictIterator</a>&lt;TQLineEdit&gt; it( fields );
for ( ; it.<a href="qintdictiterator.html#current">current</a>(); ++it )
cout &lt;&lt; it.<a href="qintdictiterator.html#currentKey">currentKey</a>() &lt;&lt; ": " &lt;&lt; it.<a href="qintdictiterator.html#current">current</a>()-&gt;text() &lt;&lt; endl;
for ( int i = 0; i &lt; 3; i++ )
cout &lt;&lt; fields[i]-&gt;text() &lt;&lt; " "; // Prints "Homer Simpson 45"
cout &lt;&lt; endl;
fields.<a href="#remove">remove</a>( 1 ); // Does not delete the line edit
for ( int i = 0; i &lt; 3; i++ )
if ( fields[i] )
cout &lt;&lt; fields[i]-&gt;text() &lt;&lt; " "; // Prints "Homer 45"
</pre>

size, and how deletions are handled.

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQIntDict"></a>TQIntDict::TQIntDict ( int&nbsp;size = 17 )
</h3>
<p> Constructs a dictionary using an internal hash array of size <em>size</em>.
<p> Setting <em>size</em> to a suitably large <a href="primes.html#prime">prime</a> number (equal to or
greater than the expected number of entries) makes the hash
distribution better which leads to faster lookup.
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQIntDict-2"></a>TQIntDict::TQIntDict ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqintdict.html">TQIntDict</a>&lt;type&gt;&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;dict )
</h3>
<p> Constructs a copy of <em>dict</em>.
<p> Each item in <em>dict</em> is inserted into this dictionary. Only the
pointers are copied (shallow copy).
<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQIntDict"></a>TQIntDict::~TQIntDict ()
</h3>
<p> Removes all items from the dictionary and destroys it.
<p> All iterators that access this dictionary will be reset.
<p> <p>See also <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>().
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="autoDelete"></a>TQPtrCollection::autoDelete () const
</h3>
<p> Returns the setting of the auto-delete option. The default is FALSE.
<p> <p>See also <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>().
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="clear"></a>TQIntDict::clear ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
<p> Removes all items from the dictionary.
<p> The removed items are deleted if <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">auto-deletion</a> is enabled.
<p> All dictionary iterators that access this dictionary will be reset.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#remove">remove</a>(), <a href="#take">take</a>(), and <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>().
<p>Reimplemented from <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#clear">TQPtrCollection</a>.
<h3 class=fn>uint <a name="count"></a>TQIntDict::count () const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
<p> Returns the number of items in the dictionary.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#isEmpty">isEmpty</a>().
<p>Reimplemented from <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#count">TQPtrCollection</a>.
<h3 class=fn>type * <a name="find"></a>TQIntDict::find ( long&nbsp;key ) const
</h3>
<p> Returns the item associated with <em>key</em>, or 0 if the key does not
exist in the dictionary.
<p> If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the most
recently inserted item will be found.
<p> Equivalent to operator[].
<p> <p>See also <a href="#operator[]">operator[]</a>().
<p>Example: <a href="bigtable-example.html#x1286">table/bigtable/main.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="insert"></a>TQIntDict::insert ( long&nbsp;key, const&nbsp;type&nbsp;*&nbsp;item )
</h3>
<p> Insert item <em>item</em> into the dictionary using key <em>key</em>.
<p> Multiple items can have the same key, in which case only the last
item will be accessible using <a href="#operator[]">operator[]</a>().
<p> <em>item</em> may not be 0.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#replace">replace</a>().
<p>Example: <a href="scribble-example.html#x912">scribble/scribble.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isEmpty"></a>TQIntDict::isEmpty () const
</h3>
<p> Returns TRUE if the dictionary is empty; otherwise returns FALSE.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#count">count</a>().
<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqintdict.html">TQIntDict</a>&lt;type&gt;&nbsp;&amp; <a name="operator-eq"></a>TQIntDict::operator= ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqintdict.html">TQIntDict</a>&lt;type&gt;&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;dict )
</h3>
<p> Assigns <em>dict</em> to this dictionary and returns a reference to this
dictionary.
<p> This dictionary is first cleared and then each item in <em>dict</em> is
inserted into this dictionary. Only the pointers are copied
(shallow copy), unless <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#newItem">newItem</a>() has been reimplemented.
<h3 class=fn>type * <a name="operator[]"></a>TQIntDict::operator[] ( long&nbsp;key ) const
</h3>
<p> Returns the item associated with <em>key</em>, or 0 if the key does not
exist in the dictionary.
<p> If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the most
recently inserted item will be found.
<p> Equivalent to the <a href="#find">find</a>() function.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#find">find</a>().
<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqdatastream.html">TQDataStream</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="read"></a>TQIntDict::read ( <a href="ntqdatastream.html">TQDataStream</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;s, <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#Item">TQPtrCollection::Item</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;item )<tt> [virtual protected]</tt>
</h3>
<p> Reads a dictionary item from the stream <em>s</em> and returns a
reference to the stream.
<p> The default implementation sets <em>item</em> to 0.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#write">write</a>().
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="remove"></a>TQIntDict::remove ( long&nbsp;key )
</h3>
<p> Removes the item associated with <em>key</em> from the dictionary.
Returns TRUE if successful, i.e. if the <em>key</em> is in the
dictionary; otherwise returns FALSE.
<p> If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the most
recently inserted item will be removed.
<p> The removed item is deleted if <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">auto-deletion</a> is enabled.
<p> All dictionary iterators that refer to the removed item will be
set to point to the next item in the dictionary's traversal
order.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#take">take</a>(), <a href="#clear">clear</a>(), and <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>().
<p>Example: <a href="bigtable-example.html#x1287">table/bigtable/main.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="replace"></a>TQIntDict::replace ( long&nbsp;key, const&nbsp;type&nbsp;*&nbsp;item )
</h3>
<p> If the dictionary has key <em>key</em>, this key's item is replaced with
<em>item</em>. If the dictionary doesn't contain key <em>key</em>, <em>item</em> is
inserted into the dictionary using key <em>key</em>.
<p> <em>item</em> may not be 0.
<p> Equivalent to:
<pre>
TQIntDict&lt;char&gt; dict;
// ...
if ( dict.<a href="#find">find</a>(key) )
dict.<a href="#remove">remove</a>( key );
dict.<a href="#insert">insert</a>( key, item );
</pre>
<p> If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the most
recently inserted item will be replaced.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#insert">insert</a>().
<p>Example: <a href="bigtable-example.html#x1288">table/bigtable/main.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="resize"></a>TQIntDict::resize ( uint&nbsp;newsize )
</h3>
<p> Changes the size of the hashtable to <em>newsize</em>. The contents of
the dictionary are preserved, but all iterators on the dictionary
become invalid.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setAutoDelete"></a>TQPtrCollection::setAutoDelete ( bool&nbsp;enable )
</h3>
<p> Sets the collection to auto-delete its contents if <em>enable</em> is
TRUE and to never delete them if <em>enable</em> is FALSE.
<p> If auto-deleting is turned on, all the items in a collection are
deleted when the collection itself is deleted. This is convenient
if the collection has the only pointer to the items.
<p> The default setting is FALSE, for safety. If you turn it on, be
careful about copying the collection - you might find yourself
with two collections deleting the same items.
<p> Note that the auto-delete setting may also affect other functions
in subclasses. For example, a subclass that has a <a href="#remove">remove</a>()
function will remove the item from its data structure, and if
auto-delete is enabled, will also delete the item.
<p> <p>See also <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#autoDelete">autoDelete</a>().
<p>Examples: <a href="grapher-nsplugin-example.html#x2769">grapher/grapher.cpp</a>, <a href="scribble-example.html#x924">scribble/scribble.cpp</a>, and <a href="bigtable-example.html#x1291">table/bigtable/main.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn>uint <a name="size"></a>TQIntDict::size () const
</h3>
<p> Returns the size of the internal hash array (as specified in the
constructor).
<p> <p>See also <a href="#count">count</a>().
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="statistics"></a>TQIntDict::statistics () const
</h3>
<p> Debugging-only function that prints out the dictionary
distribution using <a href="ntqapplication.html#qDebug">tqDebug</a>().
<h3 class=fn>type * <a name="take"></a>TQIntDict::take ( long&nbsp;key )
</h3>
<p> Takes the item associated with <em>key</em> out of the dictionary
without deleting it (even if <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">auto-deletion</a> is enabled).
<p> If there are two or more items with equal keys, then the most
recently inserted item will be taken.
<p> Returns a pointer to the item taken out, or 0 if the key does not
exist in the dictionary.
<p> All dictionary iterators that refer to the taken item will be set
to point to the next item in the dictionary's traversing order.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#remove">remove</a>(), <a href="#clear">clear</a>(), and <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>().
<p>Example: <a href="bigtable-example.html#x1289">table/bigtable/main.cpp</a>.
<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqdatastream.html">TQDataStream</a>&nbsp;&amp; <a name="write"></a>TQIntDict::write ( <a href="ntqdatastream.html">TQDataStream</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;s, <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#Item">TQPtrCollection::Item</a> ) const<tt> [virtual protected]</tt>
</h3>
<p> Writes a dictionary item to the stream <em>s</em> and returns a
reference to the stream.
