Create an object/Native demonstration

From Rosetta Code
Create an object/Native demonstration is a draft programming task. It is not yet considered ready to be promoted as a complete task, for reasons that should be found in its talk page.

Create a Hash/Associative Array/Dictionary-like object that can be initialized with key/value pairs. The object should behave like a native Hash/Associative Array/Dictionary of the language, but with the following differences:

  • No new keys can be added;
  • Keys cannot be removed;
  • Attempting to delete a key should set that keys value back to that used during initialisation.

(The value assigned to keys may be changed by normal assignment however).

If the language supports Magic Methods, then show how these work.

map mapa
mapa["A"] = 65
mapa["B"] = 66
mapa["C"] = 67

foreach valor in mapa
	print valor
	print mapa[valor]
next valor
Output:
A
65
B
66
C

FreeBASIC

FB doesn't have Dict natively, but we can implement them via Type

Type dict
    m1 As String*1
    m2 As Integer
End Type

Dim mapOf(1 To 3) As dict => {("A", 65), ("B", 66), ("C", 67)}

For i As Integer = 1 To Ubound(mapOf)
    Print mapOf(i).m1
    Print mapOf(i).m2
Next i
Output:
A
 65
B
 66
C
 67

Go

Go's built-in map type is mutable and so, to complete this task, we need to create a read-only wrapper for it which doesn't permit further items to be added or existing items to be deleted though does allow them to be reset to their default value.

First create a sub-directory, romap, of the project directory and place the following package in it:

package romap

type Romap struct{ imap map[byte]int }

//  Create new read-only wrapper for the given map.
func New(m map[byte]int) *Romap {
    if m == nil {
        return nil
    }
    return &Romap{m}
}

// Retrieve value for a given key, if it exists.
func (rom *Romap) Get(key byte) (int, bool) {
    i, ok := rom.imap[key]
    return i, ok
}

// Reset value for a given key, if it exists.
func (rom *Romap) Reset(key byte) {
    _, ok := rom.imap[key]
    if ok {
        rom.imap[key] = 0 // default value of int
    }
}

This package can now be imported and used within the main package as follows:

package main

import (
    "./romap"
    "fmt"
)

func main() {
    // create a normal map
    m := map[byte]int{'A': 65, 'B': 66, 'C': 67}

    // place it in a read-only wrapper so no new item can be added or item deleted.
    rom := romap.New(m)

    // retrieve value represented by 'C' say
    i, _ := rom.Get('C')
    fmt.Println("'C' maps to", i)

    // reset this to default value (doesn't actually delete the key)
    rom.Reset('C')
    i, _ = rom.Get('C')
    fmt.Println("'C' now maps to", i)
}
Output:
'C' maps to 67
'C' now maps to 0

J

Given a list of keys and an associated list of values, the idiomatic way of expressing this concept in J would be:

lookup=: values {~ keys&i.

For example:

   lookup=: 10 20 30 40 50 {~ (;:'this is a test')&i.
   lookup ;:'a test'
30 40

Notes:

1) While the result can not be modified or deleted, the name used to refer to it can be made to refer to something else, and once all references are lost it will be garbage collected.

2) In the above example, we have 5 values and 4 keys. The extra value is used when no key is found. If no extra value was provided, the "key not found" case would be an error case.

3) In J, objects are always referenced, but all data is passed by value. This means that objects can never be passed to a function -- only a reference to an object (its name) can be passed. This means that objects exist only in the way things are named, in J. So for the most part, we do not call things "objects" in J, and this task has nothing to do with what are called "objects" in J. However, this does demonstrate how things are created in J -- you write their definition, and can use them and/or assign to names or inspect them or whatever else.

Java

Java supports unmodifiable maps, sets, lists, and other more specialized unmodifiable collections. In this example, we have a unmodifiable map. We first create an ordinary map, modify as needed, then call the Collections.unmodifiableMap. We can subsequently read the map, but modification is not permitted. The returned map will subsequently throw a UnsupportedOperationException exception if a mutation operator is called. Several are demonstrated below.

import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

//  Title:  Create an object/Native demonstration

public class ImmutableMap {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Map<String,Integer> hashMap = getImmutableMap();
        try {
            hashMap.put("Test", 23);
        }
        catch (UnsupportedOperationException e) {
            System.out.println("ERROR:  Unable to put new value.");
        }
        try {
            hashMap.clear();
        }
        catch (UnsupportedOperationException e) {
            System.out.println("ERROR:  Unable to clear map.");
        }
        try {
            hashMap.putIfAbsent("Test", 23);
        }
        catch (UnsupportedOperationException e) {
            System.out.println("ERROR:  Unable to put if absent.");
        }
        
        for ( String key : hashMap.keySet() ) {
            System.out.printf("key = %s, value = %s%n", key, hashMap.get(key));
        }
    }
    
    private static Map<String,Integer> getImmutableMap() {
        Map<String,Integer> hashMap = new HashMap<>();
        hashMap.put("Key 1", 34);
        hashMap.put("Key 2", 105);
        hashMap.put("Key 3", 144);

        return Collections.unmodifiableMap(hashMap);
    }
    
}

{out}}

ERROR:  Unable to put new value.

JavaScript

This is a first demonstration of the task, but only implemented the functionality, not any native behavior, eg indexing. JavaScript experts may want to replace this one.

Works with: JavaScript version 1.7
var keyError = new Error("Invalid Key Error (FixedKeyDict)") ;

function FixedKeyDict(obj)
{    
    var myDefault = new Object() ;
    var myData    = new Object() ;
    for(k in obj) {
        myDefault[k] = obj[k] ;
        myData[k]    = obj[k] ;
    }

    var gotKey = function(k) {
        for(kk in myDefault) {
            if(kk == k) return true ;
        }
        return false ;        
    } ;

    this.hasKey = gotKey ;

    var checkKey = function(k) {
        if(!gotKey(k))
            throw keyError ;
    } ;
   
    this.getItem = function(k) {
        checkKey(k) ;
        return myData[k];
    } ;
    
    this.setItem = function(k, v) {
        checkKey(k) ;
        myData[k] = v ;
    } ;
    
    this.resetItem = function(k) {
        checkKey(k) ;
        myData[k] = myDefault[k] ;      
    } ;
    
    this.delItem = this.resetItem ;
    
    this.clear   = function() {
        for(k in myDefault)
            myData[k] = myDefault[k] ;
    } ;
    
    this.iterator = function() {
        for(k in myDefault)
            yield (k);            
    } ;
    
    this.clone    = function() {
        return new FixedKeyDict(myDefault) ;
    }
    
    this.toStr = function() {
        var s = "" ;
        for(key in myData)
            s = s + key + " => " + myData[key] + ", " ;
        return "FixedKeyDict{" + s + "}" ;
    } ; 
}

Test run:

const BR = "<BR>\n"

var pl = function(s) {
    document.write(s + BR) ;
} ;

pl("<pre>") ;

var o = { foo:101, bar:102 } ;

var h = new FixedKeyDict(o) ;
pl("Fixed Key Dict Created") ;
pl("toString   : " + h.toStr()) ;
pl("get an item: " + h.getItem("foo")) ;
pl("check a key: " + h.hasKey("boo")) ;
pl("ditto      : " + h.hasKey("bar")) ;
h.setItem("bar", 999) ;
pl("set an item: " + h.toStr()) ;
pl("Test iterator (or whatever)") ;
for(k in h.iterator())
    pl("  " + k + " => " + h.getItem(k)) ;
var g = h.clone() ;
pl("Clone a dict") ;
pl("  clone    : " + g.toStr()) ;
pl("  original : " + h.toStr()) ;
h.clear() ;
pl("clear or reset the dict") ;
pl("           : " + h.toStr()) ;
try {
    h.setItem("NoNewKey", 666 ) ;
} catch(e) {
    pl("error test : " + e.message) ;
}

output :

jq

jq objects are JSON objects and can be created using JSON syntax, e.g.
{"language": "jq"}
Objects can also be created programmatically, e.g.
{"one": 1} + {"two": 2}

jq objects, however, are really just values: they are immutable, and cannot be "deleted" any more than the number 1 can be deleted.

Julia

using BackedUpImmutable

function testBackedUpImmutableDict()
    fibr = BackedUpImmutableDict{String,Int64}(["a" => 0, "b" => 1, "c" => 1, "d" => 2,
        "e" => 3, "f" => 5, "g" => 8, "h" => 13, "i" => 21, "j" => 34, "extra" => -1])

    x = fibr["extra"]
    @test x == -1
    fibr["extra"] = 0
    y = fibr["extra"]
    @test y == 0
    restore!(fibr, "extra")
    z = fibr["extra"]
    @test z == -1
    
    @test_throws String begin fibr["k"] = 55 end
 
    fibr["a"] = 9
    fibr["b"] = 7
    
    # test restore all to default
    restoreall!(fibr)
    
    @test fibr["a"] == 0
end

All tests pass.

Kotlin

// version 1.1.2

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    // This line creates a read-only map which cannot be changed in any way nor cleared
    val map = mapOf('A' to 65, 'B' to 66, 'C' to 67)
    println(map)
}
Output:

We leverage native stdlib table as our own object by implementing limited actual native table functionalities.

import tables, options

type
  MyTable = object
    table: TableRef[string, int]

# return empty if the key is not available
proc `[]`(m: MyTable, key: string): Option[int] =
  if key in m.table: result = some m.table[key]
  else: result = none int

# update an item, doing nothing if the key is available during first initialization
proc `[]=`(m: var MyTable, key: string, val: int) =
  if key notin m.table: return
  m.table[key] = val

proc reset(m: var MyTable) =
  for _, v in m.table.mpairs: v = 0

# sugar for defining MyTable object
proc toTable(vals: openarray[(string, int)]): MyTable =
  result.table = newTable vals

proc main =
  # MyTable construction
  var myobj = {"key1": 1, "key2": 2, "key3": 3}.toTable

Translation of: D

This task is implemented as a new fenced-hash time with an interface similar to the native hash. Also it can be used a native dict.

Implementation of functions that handle fenced-hash:

;(struct fenced-hash (actual original) ...)

(define (fenced-hash-ref dict 
                         key 
                         [default (lambda () (error "key not found" key))]) 
  (hash-ref (fenced-hash-actual dict) key default)) 
(define (fenced-hash-set! dict key val) 
  (unless (hash-has-key? (fenced-hash-actual dict)  key)
    (error "unable to add key" key))
  (hash-set! (fenced-hash-actual dict) key val)) 
(define (fenced-hash-remove! dict key) ;reset the value! 
  (unless (hash-has-key? (fenced-hash-actual dict) key)
    (error "key not found" key))
  (hash-set! (fenced-hash-actual dict) 
             key
            (hash-ref (fenced-hash-original dict) key))) 
(define (fenced-hash-clear! dict) ;reset all values! 
  (hash-for-each (fenced-hash-original dict) 
                 (lambda (key val) (hash-set! (fenced-hash-actual dict) key val))))

(define (fenced-hash-has-key? dict key) 
  (hash-has-key? (fenced-hash-actual dict) key))
(define (fenced-hash-count dict)
  (hash-count (fenced-hash-actual dict)))

(define (fenced-hash-iterate-first dict) 
  (hash-iterate-first (fenced-hash-actual dict)))
(define (fenced-hash-iterate-next dict pos) 
  (hash-iterate-next (fenced-hash-actual dict) pos))
(define (fenced-hash-iterate-key dict pos) 
  (hash-iterate-key (fenced-hash-actual dict) pos))
(define (fenced-hash-iterate-value dict pos) 
  (hash-iterate-value (fenced-hash-actual dict) pos))

(define (*fenced-hash-print dict port mode) 
        ;private custom-write ;mode is ignored
     (write-string "#fenced-hash" port)
     (write (hash->list (fenced-hash-actual dict)) port))

Definition of the actual structure and a “public” creator:

(struct fenced-hash (actual original)
  #:extra-constructor-name *fenced-hash ;private constructor
  #:omit-define-syntaxes ;not sure this is a good idea
  #:methods gen:custom-write 
  [(define write-proc *fenced-hash-print)]

  #:methods gen:dict 
  [(define dict-ref fenced-hash-ref)
   (define dict-set! fenced-hash-set!) 
   (define dict-remove! fenced-hash-remove!)
   (define dict-has-key? fenced-hash-has-key?) ;unused in 5.6.3
   (define dict-count fenced-hash-count)
   (define dict-iterate-first fenced-hash-iterate-first)
   (define dict-iterate-next fenced-hash-iterate-next)
   (define dict-iterate-key fenced-hash-iterate-key)
   (define dict-iterate-value fenced-hash-iterate-value)])


(define (fenced-hash . args) ; public constructor
  (define original (apply hash args))
  (*fenced-hash (hash-copy original) original))

Example: Use the fenced-hash functions:

(define d (fenced-hash "a" 1 "b" 2))

(displayln d)
(fenced-hash-set! d "a" 55)
(fenced-hash-set! d "b" 66)
(displayln d)
(fenced-hash-clear! d)
(displayln d)
(fenced-hash-set! d "a" 55)
(fenced-hash-set! d "b" 66)
(displayln d)
(fenced-hash-remove! d "a")
(displayln d)
Output:
#fenced-hash(("b" . 2) ("a" . 1))
#fenced-hash(("b" . 66) ("a" . 55))
#fenced-hash(("b" . 2) ("a" . 1))
#fenced-hash(("b" . 66) ("a" . 55))
#fenced-hash(("b" . 66) ("a" . 1))

Example (continued): Use the same object as a dict. The dict-clear! method is not defined, so we must call fenced-hash-clear! instead.

(fenced-hash-clear! d)
(displayln d)
(dict-set! d "a" 55)
(dict-set! d "b" 66)
(displayln d)
(fenced-hash-clear! d) ;dict-clear is not defined
(displayln d)
(dict-set! d "a" 55)
(dict-set! d "b" 66)
(displayln d)
(dict-remove! d "a")
(displayln d)
Output:
#fenced-hash(("b" . 2) ("a" . 1))
#fenced-hash(("b" . 66) ("a" . 55))
#fenced-hash(("b" . 2) ("a" . 1))
#fenced-hash(("b" . 66) ("a" . 55))
#fenced-hash(("b" . 66) ("a" . 1))

Here we use delegation to handle all the normal hash methods that we don't need to override to define our new class.

class FixedHash {
        has $.hash handles *;
        method new(*@args) { self.bless: hash => Hash.new: @args }
        method AT-KEY(FixedHash:D: $key is copy) is rw {
                $!hash.EXISTS-KEY($key) ?? $!hash.AT-KEY($key) !! Failure.new(q{can't store value for unknown key});
        }
        method DELETE-KEY($key) { $!hash.{$key} = Nil }
}

# Testing
my $fh = FixedHash.new: "a" => 1, "b" => 2;
say $fh<a b>;   # 1 2
$fh<b>:delete;
say $fh<a b>;   # 1 Nil
$fh<b> = 42;
say $fh<a b>;   # 1 42
say $fh<c>;     # Nil
$fh<c> = 43;    # error
Output:
(1 2)
(1 (Any))
(1 42)
can't store value for unknown key

Actually thrown at:

By defining FALLBACK any class can handle undefined method calls. Since any class inherits plenty of methods from Any our magic object will be more of a novice conjurer then a master wizard proper.

class Magic {
        has %.hash;
        multi method FALLBACK($name, |c) is rw { # this will eat any extra parameters
                %.hash{$name}
        }

        multi method FALLBACK($name) is rw {
                %.hash{$name}
        }
}

my $magic = Magic.new;
$magic.foo = 10;
say $magic.foo;
$magic.defined = False; # error
Output:

Tcl

This solution uses a dict(ionary), so requires Tcl 8.5 or better. Variable traces are used to detect write or unset access to such a protected variable, restore it to the backup value at protection time, and throw an exception

proc protect _var {
    upvar 1 $_var var
    trace add variable var {write unset} [list protect0 $var]
}
proc protect0 {backup name1 name2 op} {
    upvar 1 $name1 var
    trace remove variable var {write unset} [list protect 0 $backup]
    set var $backup
    trace add variable var {write unset} [list protect0 $backup]
    return -code error "$name1 is protected"
}
proc trying cmd { #-- convenience function for demo
    puts "trying: $cmd"
    if [catch {uplevel 1 $cmd} msg] {puts $msg}
}

zkl

zkl has two dictionary objects: SD, a small dictionary that is created immutable and the "regular" dictionary has has a makeReadOnly method. They both behave the same when locked down.

d:=SD("one",1,"two",2);
d.keys;   //-->L("one","two")
d["one"]; //-->1
d.add("three",3); // error thrown
d.pop("one")   // error thrown
