This C library provides an implementation and API for a hashtable created from scratch. I started this little project on vacation to kill time. Note the the Makefile may contain Mac-specific commands.
I chose to export this library by linking the .a file to get practice with the C library system, as opposed to directly including the source files in another project.
This library requires the archive file and headers from the linkedlist repo. Place liblinkedlist.a in the lib/ directory and linkedlist.h in the include directory.
If you have the linkedlist repo locally, you can automate this process by running
./updatelib.sh /path/to/linkedlistwith the path to the local linkedlist repo.
Run make to generate a C archive file at out/libhashtable.a. Alternatively, run make lib to generate the libout folder which contains the archive file and any necessary header files.
To use the library, include the header files in your source code and link the library with your linker.
Run make runleak to run the test suite and check for memory leaks. If successful, it should exit without errors.
