Generate hash value¶
SYNOPSIS¶
- #include <libhashkit-1.0/hashkit.h>
Compile and link with -lhashkit
-
uint32_t
hashkit_value
(hashkit_st *hash, const char *key, size_t key_length)¶ - Parameters
hash -- pointer to an initialized
hashkit_st
structkey -- the key to genereate a hash of
key_length -- the length of the
key
without any terminating zero byte
DESCRIPTION¶
The hashkit_value()
function generates a 32-bit hash value from the given key
and key_length. The hash argument is an initialized hashkit object, and
distribution type and hash function is used from this object while generating
the value.
RETURN VALUE¶
A 32-bit hash value.
