(PECL quickhash >= Unknown)
This method updates an entry in the hash with a new value
public bool QuickHashIntStringHash::update ( int $key, string $value )
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 QuickHashIntStringHash::CHECK_FOR_DUPES during hash creation to prevent duplicate keys from being part of the hash.
Parameters:
key
The key of the entry to add.
value
The new value for the entry. If a non-string is passed, it will be converted to a string automatically if possible.
Returns:
TRUE when the entry was found and updated, and FALSE if the entry was not part of the hash already.
Examples:
QuickHashIntStringHash::update() example
<?php $hash->add( 161803398, "--" ); $hash->add( 314159265, "a lot" ); echo $hash->get( 161803398 ), "\n"; echo $hash->get( 314159265 ), "\n"; var_dump( $hash->update( 314159265, "a lot plus one" ) ); var_dump( $hash->update( 314159999, "a lot plus one" ) ); echo $hash->get( 161803398 ), "\n"; echo $hash->get( 314159265 ), "\n"; ?>
The above example will output something similar to:
-- a lot bool(true) bool(false) -- a lot plus one
