Lib Dict

A simple static library (.a) providing dictionnary basic functions.

Features

• Real utility if you don't want to have too many variables in your code
• Easy integration into other projects

Build

To compile the library:

# build
make

# Clean and build
make re

This will generate libdict.a in the ./ directory.

Usage

To use the library in your own C project:

#include "dict.h"

int main(void) {
    // Initialize the dictionnary to NULL
    dict_t *dictionnary = NULL;

    // Add an entry
    dict_add_entry(&dictionnary, "variable_1", 42);

    dict_add_entry(&dictionnary, "variable_2", strdup("Epitech > 42"));
    dict_add_entry(&dictionnary, "variable_3", 626);
    dict_add_entry(&dictionnary, "variable_4", 988);

    // Remove an entry
    dict_remove_entry(&dictionnary, "variable_3");

    // Search an entry (int)
    int variable_4 = dict_search_int(dictionnary, "variable_4");
    
    // Print an entry (char *)
    printf("Variable 2 : %s\n", dict_search_str(dictionnary, "variable_2"));

    // Dump the dictionnary
    dict_dump(dictionnary);

    // Clear the dictionnary
    dict_clear(dictionnary);
    return 0;
}

Compile with:

gcc main.c -Lbuild/ -ldict -o main
