Table 3.1

[Weep]

Allow me to add another request for RealTable. I was looking into Table in order to keep from having to make another useless dedicated hashtable for unlimited storage, but found that Table didn't save reals, and of course saving struct/array index integers gives no storage benefit.

JASS:

    //! endtextmacro

    //! runtextmacro Table__make("Table","integer","key" )
    //! runtextmacro Table__make("StringTable","string", "StringHash(key)" )
    //! runtextmacro Table__make("HandleTable","handle","GetHandleId(key)" )
    
    // Add the line below this comment to your table script
    //! runtextmacro Table__make("RealTable","real", "StringHash(R2S(key))" )

endlibrary

I think he's trying to store reals, not use reals as keys.

I don't really think this feature is needed, care to give an example of what you need this for?

Look at your very own UnitAppearanceTracker.

Personally, I don't have anything against a library such as Bribe's version of Table, but I don't see much reason for storing anything else other than integers too. I guess it's up to the majority. On the other hand, if Table was able to be used with everything that the native hash tables support, then resource submitted here would scarcely need their own hash tables.

I mentioned UnitAppearanceTracker as an example only because of the ugly PRECISION stuff (which can completely be ignored by having AutoIndex...).

No.

[Almia]

How come?

This still works. It isn't deprecated because Bribe's doesn't improve on the current features. Rather, it adds extra ones.

His library never got approved. (in fact, it got graveyarded but that got lost in our recent rollback)

Edit: Ah, PurgeandFire111 already beat me to it.

[Almia]

Oh
I thought it was deprecated because of the Bribe's Table's Looks
