rustHow to use a custom hash function with a Rust HashMap?
Using a custom hash function with a Rust HashMap is easy. You can use the HashMap::with_hasher
method to create a HashMap
with a custom Hasher
implementation.
use std::collections::HashMap;
use std::hash::{BuildHasher, Hasher};
struct MyHasher;
impl Hasher for MyHasher {
fn finish(&self) -> u64 {
0
}
fn write(&mut self, _bytes: &[u8]) {
// Do nothing
}
}
impl BuildHasher for MyHasher {
type Hasher = MyHasher;
fn build_hasher(&self) -> Self::Hasher {
MyHasher
}
}
let mut map: HashMap<&str, i32, MyHasher> = HashMap::with_hasher(MyHasher);
map.insert("foo", 42);
assert_eq!(map.get("foo"), Some(&42));
The code above creates a HashMap
with a custom Hasher
implementation called MyHasher
. The MyHasher
struct implements the Hasher
and BuildHasher
traits, and the write
and finish
methods. The write
method does nothing, and the finish
method always returns 0.
The HashMap::with_hasher
method is then used to create a HashMap
with the MyHasher
hasher. The map.insert
method is then used to insert a key-value pair into the HashMap
. Finally, the map.get
method is used to retrieve the value associated with the key.
