Adds g_hash_table_set_min_capacity() (4.10 KB, patch)

Description alef-zero 2003-07-24 17:00:32 UTC 
there is no currenty ability to set initial size of hash_table.
despite someone want to create big hashtable and know that (eg. 1000000
items) hash always starts from 11 items and has to do unnecessary
reallocations.
Comment 1 Owen Taylor 2003-08-05 20:19:38 UTC 
Hmm, it would have to be somethign like:

 g_hash_table_set_min_buckets()

since otherwise, it would be unclear when you should
start resizing the hash table smaller again when
you removed items.

Adds g_hash_table_set_min_capacity()

Patch adds getter and setter for hash_table->min_capacity, which is used as lower bounds for g_hash_table_resize().
