Hashtable?

[kong]

Hello, New Preferred Type ” Hashtable”!
When I open the Variable Object Editor, messages appear.

IndexOutOfRangeException: Array index is out of range.

Hey!

Please use a Dictionary instead of a Hashtable. Hashtables are not really supported.
Is there a reason you prefer Hashtable over a dictionary? 🙂

Thanks!

Hello again,
I tried to use a dictionary but could not find a key value pair. Do I need to add “iDictionary” in a new type? Or should I add another type?

Thank you!

I, too, am chasing dictionaries. I added all items that rhymed with dictionary to the preferred types list, and I have now some nodes, but can’t get any of them to create a new dictionary.
I would like to recreate this in FlowCanvas:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

// Reference the Collections Generic namespace   using System.Collections.Generic;     int totalPotions = 5;   int totalCoins = 100;   string weaponID = "Weapon_102";   Analytics.CustomEvent("gameOver", new Dictionary<string, object>   {     { "potions", totalPotions },     { "coins", totalCoins },     { "activeWeapon", weaponID }   });

This is from here: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UnityAnalyticsCustomEventScripting.html

Hello guys,

I have attached for you here a unitypackage, which includes nodes for support of Dictionaries(string, T).
Only string as Key is supported, but any type as Value.

Specifically there is now a “Create Dictionary(T)” node, similar to the “Create Collection(T)” node under the “Variables” category, as well as several other nodes under the “Functions/Dictionary” category like TryGetValue, AddItem, RemoveItem, GetItem, ContainsKey etc.

These nodes will also be included in the next version as well.
For your information, you don’t have to add any type in the Preferred Types Editor, for these nodes to work.

Let me know if these work for you.
Thanks!

Apparently I forgot the unitypackage 🙂

Thanks Gavalakis!

This looks great!
I downloaded this package and the nodes appeared as described. Thank you for preparing these.

I remember seeing at some similar nodes that there were dele buttons at the right side of each item. Do you think that would be feasible with this variable node, too?

[Gavalakis]

You are welcome.
I will work on the Dictionary inspector a bit more, as to make it possible to delete entries similar to how it’s done for lists, yes 🙂
