Reference/es_sd

struct es_sd is an opaque data structure representing a string dictionary. A string dictionary is a mapping from strings to integer identifiers, or string-ids in the range 1..N, where N is the number of strings in the dictionary.

A string is regarded as a variable length sequence of bytes. If such a sequence contains bytes with zero value, however, the user is restricted to the es_sd_add_v() and es_sd_getid_v() functions, as the es_sd_add() and es_sd_getid() functions assume null-terminated strings.

The object interface is as follows:

es_sd_new	Construct a new string dictionary.
es_sd_delete	Delete a string dictionary.
es_sd_add	Add a null-terminated string.
es_sd_add_v	Add a string of known length.
es_sd_getid	Retrieve string-id from dictionary by null terminated string.
es_sd_getid_v	Retrieve string-id from dictionary by a string of known length.
es_sd_getstr	Retrieve null terminated string from dictionary by string-id.
es_sd_rebalance	Rebalance memory usage of string dictionary.
es_sd_getmaxid	Retrieve the maximum string-id in dictionary.
es_sd_getchunksize	Retrieve memory allocation chunksize.
