dstruct 0.2.2

dstruct

This library offers a variety of data structures and operations on those data structures in D.

Quick Start

Check out the code somewhere and you can use it as a DUB package. Everything in the library is some form of template, so this is a source library and doesn't need to be built itself.

Data Structures in This Library

• WeakReference(T) - An implementation of weak references.
• Some(T) - A type wrapping a nullable type which cannot be null.
• Option(T) - An Option/Maybe type for safer null handling.
• HashMap(K, V) - A garbage collected hashmap type, just like associative arrays, but usable in more pure and @safe code.
• HashSet(T) - A garbage collected hashset type.
• Matrix(T) - A garbage collected dynamic matrix type.
• Matrix(T, rowCount, columnCount) - A static matrix value type.
• BasicGraph(T, edgeDirection) - Directed and undirected graph types.

Design Philosophy

This library is designed with the following philosophy.

• Everything should be as `@safe and pure` as possible, to make it easier to write pure functions which are safe.
• Exceptions should only be thrown when not doing so would be unsafe.
• Any function which doesn't throw should be marked `nothrow`.
• As much as possible, you should be able to reference memory in a safe manner instead of having to copy it, to cut down on allocation.
• If memory is going to be allocated, it should be done as little as possible, and when it happens it should probably be allocated on the garbage collected heap.
