Wwise SDK

Interface for an open-addressed hash table (or key-value array). Relatively low-cost (O(1)) lookup, add, and removal by key. Typical use is to add values by key, and then using GetFirstSlotByKey (and GetNextSlotByKey, if keys are not guaranteed to be unique) to get a Slot into the AkHashTableBase, and then indexing AkHashTableBase::pValues by the provided Slot.

Note that the AkHashTableBase referred to is not inherently thread-safe, so appropriate protections will be required if the same hashTable is shared across multiple plug-in instances.

Some hash functions are provided in AkMurMurHash.h which can be used for key generation. In particular, this can be very useful for storing data on audio objects, or audio object channels, over time. Note that if indexing by object-channel is desired, GetObjectChannelHash is recommended to mitigate key-collisions from multiple channels of data. However, Audio Object IDs themselves are chaotic enough that they can be used directly.
