NAME

       JudySL macros - C library for creating and accessing a dynamic array,
       using a null-terminated string as an Index (associative array)


SYNOPSIS

       cc [flags] sourcefiles -lJudy

       #include <Judy.h>

       #define MAXLINELEN 1000000           // define maximum string length

       Word_t * PValue;                     // JudySL array element
       uint8_t  Index[MAXLINELEN];          // string
       int      Rc_int;                     // return value
       Word_t   Rc_word;                    // full word return value

       Pvoid_t PJSLArray = (Pvoid_t) NULL;  // initialize JudySL array

       JSLI( PValue,  PJSLArray, Index);   // JudySLIns()
       JSLD( Rc_int,  PJSLArray, Index);   // JudySLDel()
       JSLG( PValue,  PJSLArray, Index);   // JudySLGet()
       JSLFA(Rc_word, PJSLArray);          // JudySLFreeArray()
       JSLF( PValue,  PJSLArray, Index);   // JudySLFirst()
       JSLN( PValue,  PJSLArray, Index);   // JudySLNext()
       JSLL( PValue,  PJSLArray, Index);   // JudySLLast()
       JSLP( PValue,  PJSLArray, Index);   // JudySLPrev()


DESCRIPTION

       A JudySL array is the equivalent of a sorted set of strings, each
       associated with a Value (word).  A Value is addressed by an Index
       (key), which is a null-terminated character string of any length.
       Memory to support the array is allocated as index/value pairs are
       inserted, and released as index/value pairs are deleted.  This is a
       form of associative array, where array elements are also sorted
       lexicographically (case-sensitive) by indexes.  This could be thought
       of as

       void * JudySLArray["Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas any more"];

       A JudySL array is allocated with a NULL pointer

       Pvoid_t PJSLArray = (Pvoid_t) NULL;
       As with an ordinary array, there are no duplicate indexes (strings) in
       a JudySL array.

       Using the macros described here, rather than the JudySL function calls,
       the default error handling sends a message to the standard error and
       terminates the program with exit(1).


JSLI(PValue, PJSLArray, Index) // JudySLIns()

       Insert an Index string and Value in the JudySL array PJSLArray.  If the
       Index is successfully inserted, the Value is initialized to 0. If the
       Index was already present, the Value is not modified.

       Return PValue pointing to Index's Value.  Your program must use this
       pointer to modify the Value, for example:

       *PValue = 1234;

       Note: JSLI() and JSLD reorganize the JudySL array.  Therefore, pointers
       returned from previous JudySL calls become invalid and must be
       reacquired.


JSLD(Rc_int, PJSLArray, Index) // JudySLDel()

       Delete the specified Index/Value pair (array element) from the JudySL
       array.

       Return Rc_int set to 1 if successful.  array and it was previously
       inserted.  Return Rc_int set to 0 if Index was not present.


JSLG(PValue, PJSLArray, Index) // JudySLGet()

       Get the pointer to Index's Value.

       Return PValue pointing to Index's Value.  Return PValue set to NULL if
       the Index was not present.


JSLFA(Rc_word, PJSLArray) // JudySLFreeArray()

       Given a pointer to a JudySL array (PJSLArray), free the entire array
       (much faster than using a JSLN(), JSLD() loop.)

       Return Rc_word set to the number of bytes freed and PJSLArray set to
       NULL.


JudySL Search Functions

       The JudySL search functions allow you to search for indexes in the
       array.  You may search inclusively or exclusively, in either forward or
       reverse directions.

       If successful, Index is returned set to the found index, and PValue is
       returned set to a pointer to Index's Value.  If unsuccessful, PValue is
       returned set to NULL, and Index contains no useful information.  PValue
       must be tested for non-NULL prior to using Index, since a search
       failure is possible.

       Note: To accomodate all possible returns, the Index buffer must be at
       least as large as the largest string stored in the array.


JSLF(PValue, PJSLArray, Index) // JudySLFirst()

       Search (inclusive) for the first index present that is equal to or
       greater than the passed Index string.  (Start with a null string to
       find the first index in the array.)  JSLF() is typically used to begin
       a sorted-order scan of the valid indexes in a JudySL array.

       uint8_t Index[MAXLINELEN];
       strcpy (Index, "");
       JSLF(PValue, PJSLArray, Index);


JSLN(PValue, PJSLArray, Index) // JudySLNext()

       Search (exclusive) for the next index present that is greater than the
       passed Index string.  JSLN() is typically used to continue a sorted-
       order scan of the valid indexes in a JudySL array, or to locate a
       "neighbor" of a given index.


JSLL(PValue, PJSLArray, Index) // JudySLLast()

       Search (inclusive) for the last index present that is equal to or less
       than the passed Index string.  (Start with a maximum-valued string to
       look up the last index in the array, such as a max-length string of
       0xff bytes.)  JSLL() is typically used to begin a reverse-sorted-order
       scan of the valid indexes in a JudySL array.


JSLP(PValue, PJSLArray, Index) // JudySLPrev()

       Search (exclusive) for the previous index present that is less than the
       passed Index string.  JSLP() is typically used to continue a reverse-
       sorted-order scan of the valid indexes in a JudySL array, or to locate
       a "neighbor" of a given index.

EXAMPLE of a string sort routine

       #include <stdio.h>
       #include <Judy.h>

       #define MAXLINE 1000000                 // max string (line) length

       uint8_t   Index[MAXLINE];               // string to insert

       int     // Usage:  JudySort < file_to_sort
       main()
       {
           Pvoid_t   PJArray = (PWord_t)NULL;  // Judy array.
           PWord_t   PValue;                   // Judy array element.
           Word_t    Bytes;                    // size of JudySL array.

           while (fgets(Index, MAXLINE, stdin) != (char *)NULL)
           {
               JSLI(PValue, PJArray, Index);   // store string into array
               if (PValue == PJERR)            // if out of memory?
               {                               // so do something
                   printf("Malloc failed -- get more ram\n");
                   exit(1);
               }
               ++(*PValue);                    // count instances of string
           }
           Index[0] = '\0';                    // start with smallest string.
           JSLF(PValue, PJArray, Index);       // get first string
           while (PValue != NULL)
           {
               while ((*PValue)--)             // print duplicates
                   printf("%s", Index);
               JSLN(PValue, PJArray, Index);   // get next string
           }
           JSLFA(Bytes, PJArray);              // free array

           fprintf(stderr, "The JudySL array used %lu bytes of memory\n", Bytes);
           return (0);
       }
