.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn hcreate ,
.Fn hdestroy ,
and
.Fn hsearch
functions manage hash search tables.
.Pp
The
.Fn hcreate
function allocates sufficient space for the table, and the application should
ensure it is called before
.Fn hsearch
is used.
The
.Fa nel
argument is an estimate of the maximum
number of entries that the table should contain.
This number may be adjusted upward by the
algorithm in order to obtain certain mathematically favorable circumstances.
.Pp
The
.Fn hdestroy
function disposes of the search table, and may be followed by another call to
.Fn hcreate .
After the call to
.Fn hdestroy ,
the data can no longer be considered accessible.
.Pp
The
.Fn hsearch
function is a hash-table search routine.
It returns a pointer into a hash table
indicating the location at which an entry can be found.
The
.Fa item
argument is a structure of type
.Vt ENTRY
(defined in the
.Aq Pa search.h
header) containing two pointers:
.Fa item.key
points to the comparison key (a
.Vt "char *" ) ,
and
.Fa item.data
(a
.Vt "void *" )
points to any other data to be associated with
that key.
The comparison function used by
.Fn hsearch
is
.Xr strcmp 3 .
The
.Fa action
argument is a
member of an enumeration type
.Vt ACTION
indicating the disposition of the entry if it cannot be
found in the table.
.Dv ENTER
indicates that the
.Fa item
should be inserted in the table at an
appropriate point.
.Dv FIND
indicates that no entry should be made.
Unsuccessful resolution is
indicated by the return of a
.Dv NULL
pointer.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn hcreate
function returns 0 if it cannot allocate sufficient space for the table;
otherwise, it returns non-zero.
.Pp
The
.Fn hdestroy
function does not return a value.
.Pp
The
.Fn hsearch
function returns a
.Dv NULL
pointer if either the
.Fa action
is
.Dv FIND
and the
.Fa item
could not be found or the
.Fa action
is
.Dv ENTER
and the table is full.
.Sh ERRORS
The
.Fn hcreate
and
.Fn hsearch
functions may fail if:
.Bl -tag -width Er
.It Bq Er ENOMEM
Insufficient storage space is available.
.El
.Sh EXAMPLES
The following example reads in strings followed by two numbers
and stores them in a hash table, discarding duplicates.
It then reads in strings and finds the matching entry in the hash
table and prints it out.
