It packs the data + * more efficiently than a btree which will result in less disk space use, + * and a performance boost. The element get and set operations are still + * O(ln(n)), but with a much smaller constant. + * + * The value type structure is reused from the btree type to support proper + * reference counting of values. + * + * The arrays implicitly know their length, and bounds are checked for + * lookups and updated. It doesn't store this in an accessible place + * because it would waste a whole metadata block. Make sure you store the + * size along with the array root in your encompassing data. + * + * Array entries are indexed via an unsigned integer starting from zero. + * Arrays are not sparse; if you resize an array to have 'n' entries then + * 'n - 1' will be the last valid index. + * + * Typical use: + * + * a) initialise a dm_array_info structure. This describes the array + * values and ties it into a specific transaction manager. It holds no + * instance data; the same info can be used for many similar arrays if + * you wish. + * + * b) Get yourself a root. The root is the index of a block of data on the + * disk that holds a particular instance of an array. You may have a + * pre existing root in your metadata that you wish to use, or you may + * want to create a brand new, empty array with dm_array_empty(). + * + * Like the other data structures in this library, dm_array objects are + * immutable between transactions. Update functions will return you the + * root for a _new_ array. If you've incremented the old root, via + * dm_tm_inc(), before calling the update function you may continue to use + * it in parallel with the new root. + * + * c) resize an array with dm_array_resize(). + * + * d) Get a value from the array with dm_array_get_value(). + * + * e) Set a value in the array with dm_array_set_value(). + * + * f) Walk an array of values in index order with dm_array_walk(). More + * efficient than making many calls to dm_array_get_value(). + * + * g) Destroy the array with dm_array_del(). This tells the transaction + * manager that you're no longer using this data structure so it can + * recycle it's blocks.
