    QuickHashStringIntHash::update — This method updates an entry in the hash with a new value

    Description

    public QuickHashStringIntHash::update(string $key, int $value): bool

    This method updates an entry with a new value, and returns whether the entry was update. If there are duplicate keys, only the first found element will get an updated value. Use QuickHashStringIntHash::CHECK_FOR_DUPES during hash creation to prevent duplicate keys from being part of the hash.

    Parameters

    key

    The key of the entry to update.

    value

    The new value for the entry. If a non-string is passed, it will be converted to a string automatically if possible.

    Return Values

    true when the entry was found and updated, and false if the entry was not part of the hash already.

    Examples

    Example #1 QuickHashStringIntHash::update() example

    <?php
    $hash     = new QuickHashStringIntHash( 1024 );

    $hash->add( 'six', 314159265 );
    $hash->add( "a lot", 314159265 );

    echo     $hash->get( 'six' ), "\n";
    echo     $hash->get( 'a lot' ), "\n";

    var_dump( $hash->update( 'a lot', 314159266 ) );
    var_dump( $hash->update( "a lot plus one", 314159999 ) );

    echo     $hash->get( 'six' ), "\n";
    echo     $hash->get( 'a lot' ), "\n";
    ?>

    The above example will output something similar to:

    314159265
314159265
bool(true)
bool(false)
314159265
314159266
