在这个答案的更新3中已经明确表示,这个符号:

var hash = {};
hash[X]

实际上并不散列对象X;它实际上只是将X转换为一个字符串(如果它是一个对象,则通过. tostring(),或者其他一些用于各种基本类型的内置转换),然后在“哈希”中查找该字符串,而不散列它。对象相等性也不检查-如果两个不同的对象具有相同的字符串转换,它们将相互覆盖。

鉴于此,JavaScript中是否有有效的hashmap实现?

(例如,javascript hashmap的第二个谷歌结果对任何操作产生的实现都是O(n)。其他各种结果忽略了具有等效字符串表示的不同对象会相互覆盖这一事实。


当前回答

试试我的JavaScript哈希表实现:http://www.timdown.co.uk/jshashtable

它查找关键对象的hashCode()方法,或者您可以在创建Hashtable对象时提供哈希函数。

其他回答

下面是一种使用类似Java映射的简单而方便的方法:

var map = {
              'map_name_1': map_value_1,
              'map_name_2': map_value_2,
              'map_name_3': map_value_3,
              'map_name_4': map_value_4
          }

为了得到值:

alert(map['map_name_1']);    // Gives the value of map_value_1

... etc. ...

我的“地图”实现,源自Christoph的例子:

使用示例:

var map = new Map();  // Creates an "in-memory" map
var map = new Map("storageId");  // Creates a map that is loaded/persisted using html5 storage

function Map(storageId) {
    this.current = undefined;
    this.size = 0;
    this.storageId = storageId;
    if (this.storageId) {
        this.keys = new Array();
        this.disableLinking();
    }
}

Map.noop = function() {
    return this;
};

Map.illegal = function() {
    throw new Error("illegal operation for maps without linking");
};

// Map initialisation from an existing object
// doesn't add inherited properties if not explicitly instructed to:
// omitting foreignKeys means foreignKeys === undefined, i.e. == false
// --> inherited properties won't be added
Map.from = function(obj, foreignKeys) {
    var map = new Map;
    for(var prop in obj) {
        if(foreignKeys || obj.hasOwnProperty(prop))
            map.put(prop, obj[prop]);
    }
    return map;
};

Map.prototype.disableLinking = function() {
    this.link = Map.noop;
    this.unlink = Map.noop;
    this.disableLinking = Map.noop;

    this.next = Map.illegal;
    this.key = Map.illegal;
    this.value = Map.illegal;
//    this.removeAll = Map.illegal;


    return this;
};

// Overwrite in Map instance if necessary
Map.prototype.hash = function(value) {
    return (typeof value) + ' ' + (value instanceof Object ?
        (value.__hash || (value.__hash = ++arguments.callee.current)) :
        value.toString());
};

Map.prototype.hash.current = 0;

// --- Mapping functions

Map.prototype.get = function(key) {
    var item = this[this.hash(key)];
    if (item === undefined) {
        if (this.storageId) {
            try {
                var itemStr = localStorage.getItem(this.storageId + key);
                if (itemStr && itemStr !== 'undefined') {
                    item = JSON.parse(itemStr);
                    this[this.hash(key)] = item;
                    this.keys.push(key);
                    ++this.size;
                }
            } catch (e) {

这看起来很健壮 解决方案:https://github.com/flesler/hashmap

它甚至可以很好地用于看起来相同的函数和对象。它使用的唯一hack是向对象添加一个模糊成员来标识它。如果您的程序没有覆盖这个模糊的变量(它类似于hashid),那么您就很好了。

不幸的是,之前的答案都不适合我的情况:不同的键对象可能具有相同的散列代码。因此,我写了一个简单的类似java的HashMap版本:

function HashMap() {
    this.buckets = {};
}

HashMap.prototype.put = function(key, value) {
    var hashCode = key.hashCode();
    var bucket = this.buckets[hashCode];
    if (!bucket) {
        bucket = new Array();
        this.buckets[hashCode] = bucket;
    }
    for (var i = 0; i < bucket.length; ++i) {
        if (bucket[i].key.equals(key)) {
            bucket[i].value = value;
            return;
        }
    }
    bucket.push({ key: key, value: value });
}

HashMap.prototype.get = function(key) {
    var hashCode = key.hashCode();
    var bucket = this.buckets[hashCode];
    if (!bucket) {
        return null;
    }
    for (var i = 0; i < bucket.length; ++i) {
        if (bucket[i].key.equals(key)) {
            return bucket[i].value;
        }
    }
}

HashMap.prototype.keys = function() {
    var keys = new Array();
    for (var hashKey in this.buckets) {
        var bucket = this.buckets[hashKey];
        for (var i = 0; i < bucket.length; ++i) {
            keys.push(bucket[i].key);
        }
    }
    return keys;
}

HashMap.prototype.values = function() {
    var values = new Array();
    for (var hashKey in this.buckets) {
        var bucket = this.buckets[hashKey];
        for (var i = 0; i < bucket.length; ++i) {
            values.push(bucket[i].value);
        }
    }
    return values;
}

注意:键对象必须“实现”hashCode()和equals()方法。

我已经实现了一个JavaScript HashMap,其代码可以从http://github.com/lambder/HashMapJS/tree/master获得

代码如下:

/*
 =====================================================================

 */
var HashMap = function() {
  this.initialize();
}

HashMap.prototype = {
  hashkey_prefix: "<#HashMapHashkeyPerfix>",
  hashcode_field: "<#HashMapHashkeyPerfix>",

  initialize: function() {
    this.backing_hash = {};
    this.code = 0;
  },
  /*
   Maps value to key returning previous association
   */
  put: function(key, value) {
    var prev;
    if (key && value) {
      var hashCode = key[this.hashcode_field];
      if (hashCode) {
        prev = this.backing_hash[hashCode];
      } else {
        this.code += 1;
        hashCode = this.hashkey_prefix + this.code;
        key[this.hashcode_field] = hashCode;
      }
      this.backing_hash[hashCode] = value;
    }
    return prev;
  },
  /*
   Returns value associated with given key
   */
  get: function(key) {
    var value;
    if (key) {
      var hashCode = key[this.hashcode_field];
      if (hashCode) {
        value = this.backing_hash[hashCode];
      }
    }
    return value;
  },
  /*
   Deletes association by given key.
   Returns true if the association existed, false otherwise
   */
  del: function(key) {
    var success = false;
    if (key) {
      var hashCode = key[this.hashcode_field];
      if (hashCode) {
        var prev = this.backing_hash[hashCode];
        this.backing_hash[hashCode] = undefined;
        if(prev !== undefined)
          success = true;
      }
    }
    return success;
  }
}

//// Usage

// Creation

var my_map = new HashMap();

// Insertion

var a_key = {};
var a_value = {struct: "structA"};
var b_key = {};
var b_value = {struct: "structB"};
var c_key = {};
var c_value = {struct: "structC"};

my_map.put(a_key, a_value);
my_map.put(b_key, b_value);
var prev_b = my_map.put(b_key, c_value);

// Retrieval

if(my_map.get(a_key) !== a_value){
  throw("fail1")
}
if(my_map.get(b_key) !== c_value){
  throw("fail2")
}
if(prev_b !== b_value){
  throw("fail3")
}

// Deletion

var a_existed = my_map.del(a_key);
var c_existed = my_map.del(c_key);
var a2_existed = my_map.del(a_key);

if(a_existed !== true){
  throw("fail4")
}
if(c_existed !== false){
  throw("fail5")
}
if(a2_existed !== false){
  throw("fail6")
}
