37 /* gl_set is an abstract set data type. It can contain any number of objects
38 ('void *' or 'const void *' pointers); the order does not matter.
39 Duplicates (in the sense of the comparator) are forbidden.
41 There are several implementations of this set datatype, optimized for
42 different operations or for memory. You can start using the simplest set
43 implementation, GL_ARRAY_SET, and switch to a different implementation
44 later, when you realize which operations are performed the most frequently.
45 The API of the different implementations is exactly the same; when switching
46 to a different implementation, you only have to change the gl_set_create
47 call.
49 The implementations are:
50 GL_ARRAY_SET a growable array
51 GL_LINKEDHASH_SET a hash table with a linked list
52 GL_HASH_SET a hash table
54 The memory consumption is asymptotically the same: O(1) for every object
55 in the set. When looking more closely at the average memory consumed
56 for an object, GL_ARRAY_SET is the most compact representation, then comes
57 GL_HASH_SET, and GL_LINKEDHASH_SET needs the most memory.
59 The guaranteed average performance of the operations is, for a set of
60 n elements:
62 Operation ARRAY LINKEDHASH
63 HASH
65 gl_set_size O(1) O(1)
66 gl_set_add O(n) O(1)
67 gl_set_remove O(n) O(1)
68 gl_set_search O(n) O(1)
69 gl_set_iterator O(1) O(1)
70 gl_set_iterator_next O(1) O(1)
