AlliedModders - [INC] NestedStringMap - StringMaps.. But with nesting

Had the idea to do this for a while, came around to do it today because i happened to be reminded of it and was bored.

Example:

PHP Code:


		
			
        //Create a nested stringmap object with enabled Iteration

    NestedStringMap topLevel = new NestedStringMap(true);

    

    //Child does not exist yet, will be created, written into the parent, and returned

    NestedStringMap child = topLevel.Child("firstChild");

    

    //Creates a sub-child in the created child, and sets the value of SomeKey to 1337

    child.Child("child1").SetValue("SomeKey", 1337);

    

    //Retrieves the set key from the created sub-child

    LogMessage("Read: %i", child.Child("child1").GetAndReturnValue("SomeKey"));

    

    //Creates some more sub-childs because why not. We'll disable Iteration for these, 

    //thus no ArrayLists will be created / maintained alongside of them.

    child.Child("child2", Iterator_Disable);

    child.Child("child3", Iterator_Disable);

    

    //iterating over the children of the first child-NestedStringMap

    NestedStringMapChildren NSMC;

    

    if(child.GetIterator(NSMC)) {

        for(int i = 0; i < NSMC.Length; i++) {

            char childName[255];

            

            NestedStringMap x = view_as<NestedStringMap>(NSMC.GetChild(i));

            

            x.GetName(childName, sizeof(childName));

            

            LogMessage("Child %i in NestedStringMap %i has name %s", i, child, childName);

        }

    }

    

    //Retrieve the sub-child from the child, go back to its parent again and close that.

    //Yes, it essentially is no different than "child.Close()";

    //Calling Close() will take care of also closing any possibly nested children

    child.Child("child3").Parent().Close();

    

    //Finally close the top level NestedStringMap

    topLevel.Close();
