QueryableOrderedSet<T> class

This is an implementation of OrderedSet that allows you to more efficiently query the list.

You can register a set of queries, i.e., predefined sub-types, whose results, i.e., subsets of this set, are then cached. Since the queries have to be type checks, and types are runtime constants, this can be vastly optimized.

If you find yourself doing a lot of:

  orderedSet.whereType<Foo>()

On your code, and are concerned you are iterating a very long O(n) list to find a handful of elements, specially if this is done every tick, you can use this class, that pays a small O(number of registers) cost on add, but lets you find (specific) subsets at O(0).

Note that you can change strictMode to allow for querying for unregistered types; if you do so, the registration cost is payed on the first query.

Whether this collection has no elements.
no setterinherited
isNotEmpty → bool
Whether this collection has at least one element.
no setterinherited
iterator → Iterator<T>
A new Iterator that allows iterating the elements of this Iterable.

final

Methods

add(T t) → bool
Adds the element e to this, and returns wether the element was succesfully added or not.
override
addAll(Iterable<T> es) → int
Adds each element of the provided es to this and returns the number of elements added.
inherited
any(bool test(T element)) → bool
Checks whether any element of this iterable satisfies test.
inherited
cast<R>() → Iterable<R>
A view of this iterable as an iterable of R instances.
inherited
clear() → void
Removes all elements of this.
override
contains(Object? element) → bool
Whether the collection contains an element equal to element.
inherited
elementAt(int index) → T
Returns the indexth element.
inherited
every(bool test(T element)) → bool
Checks whether every element of this iterable satisfies test.
inherited
expand<T>(Iterable<T> toElements(T element)) → Iterable<T>
Expands each element of this Iterable into zero or more elements.
inherited
firstWhere(bool test(T element), {T orElse()?}) → T
The first element that satisfies the given predicate test.
inherited
fold<T>(T initialValue, T combine(T previousValue, T element)) → T
Reduces a collection to a single value by iteratively combining each element of the collection with an existing value
inherited
followedBy(Iterable<T> other) → Iterable<T>
Creates the lazy concatenation of this iterable and other.
inherited
forEach(void action(T element)) → void
Invokes action on each element of this iterable in iteration order.
inherited
isRegistered<C>() → bool
Whether type C is registered as a cache
join([String separator = ""]) → String
Converts each element to a String and concatenates the strings.
inherited
lastWhere(bool test(T element), {T orElse()?}) → T
The last element that satisfies the given predicate test.
inherited
map<T>(T toElement(T e)) → Iterable<T>
The current elements of this iterable modified by toElement.
inherited
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
query<C extends T>() → List<C>
Allow you to find a subset of this set with all the elements e for which the condition e is C is true. This is equivalent to
rebalanceAll() → void
Allows you to rebalance the whole tree. If you are dealing with non-deterministic compare functions, you probably need to consider rebalancing. If the result of the priority function for some elements changes, rebalancing is needed. In general, be careful with using comparing functions that can change. If only a few known elements need rebalancing, you can use rebalanceWhere. Note: rebalancing is not stable.
inherited
rebalanceWhere(bool test(T element)) → void
Allows you to rebalance only a portion of the tree. If you are dealing with non-deterministic compare functions, you probably need to consider rebalancing. If the priority function changed for certain known elements but not all, you can use this instead of rebalanceAll. In general be careful with using comparing functions that can change. Note: rebalancing is not stable.
inherited
reduce(T combine(T value, T element)) → T
Reduces a collection to a single value by iteratively combining elements of the collection using the provided function.
inherited
register<C extends T>() → void
Adds a new cache for a subtype C of T, allowing you to call query. If the cache already exists this operation is a no-op.
remove(T e) → bool
Remove a single element that is equal to e.
override
removeWhere(bool test(T element)) → Iterable<T>
Remove all elements that match the test condition; returns the removed elements
inherited
singleWhere(bool test(T element), {T orElse()?}) → T
The single element that satisfies test.
inherited
skip(int count) → Iterable<T>
Creates an Iterable that provides all but the first count elements.
inherited
skipWhile(bool test(T value)) → Iterable<T>
Creates an Iterable that skips leading elements while test is satisfied.
inherited
take(int count) → Iterable<T>
Creates a lazy iterable of the count first elements of this iterable.
inherited
takeWhile(bool test(T value)) → Iterable<T>
Creates a lazy iterable of the leading elements satisfying test.
inherited
toList({bool growable = true}) → List<T>
Creates a List containing the elements of this Iterable.
inherited
toSet() → Set<T>
Creates a Set containing the same elements as this iterable.
inherited
toString() → String
Returns a string representation of (some of) the elements of this.
inherited
where(bool test(T element)) → Iterable<T>
Creates a new lazy Iterable with all elements that satisfy the predicate test.
inherited
whereType<T>() → Iterable<T>
Creates a new lazy Iterable with all elements that have type T.
