Change 14534
Add support for the MapApi class in P4Ruby.
This change adds a new
class, P4::Map, to P4Ruby's canon. The methods on P4::Map are:
P4::Map.new - Constructor
P4::Map.load - Load a map from an array
P4::Map.join - Join two maps to create a third
P4::Map#clear - Empty a map
P4::Map#count - Return the number of entries
P4::Map#empty? - Tests whether a map object is empty
P4::Map#translate - Translate a string through a map
P4::Map#includes? - Tests whether a path is mapped
P4::Map#lhs - Returns the left side as an array
P4::Map#rhs - Returns the right side as an array
P4::Map#to_a - Returns the map as an array
(Note, the first three are class methods, the rest instance methods)
There is also P4::Map#reverse(), but I'm not documenting that yet as
I'm not sure I understand the semantics of reversing complex maps
well enough.
User-visible enhancement documented in p4rubynotes.txt and slated
for 2008.2 release.
