  23. * AVDictionary is provided for compatibility with libav. It is both in
  24. * implementation as well as API inefficient. It does not scale and is
  25. * extremely slow with large dictionaries.
  26. * It is recommended that new code uses our tree container from tree.c/h
  27. * where applicable, which uses AVL trees to achieve O(log n) performance.

  35. * @brief Simple key:value store
  36. *
  37. * @{
  38. * Dictionaries are used for storing key:value pairs. To create
  39. * an AVDictionary, simply pass an address of a NULL pointer to
  40. * av_dict_set(). NULL can be used as an empty dictionary wherever
  41. * a pointer to an AVDictionary is required.
  42. * Use av_dict_get() to retrieve an entry or iterate over all
  43. * entries and finally av_dict_free() to free the dictionary
  44. * and all its contents.
  45. *
  46. * @code
  47. * AVDictionary *d = NULL; // "create" an empty dictionary
  48. * av_dict_set(&d, "foo", "bar", 0); // add an entry
  49. *
  50. * char *k = av_strdup("key"); // if your strings are already allocated,
  51. * char *v = av_strdup("value"); // you can avoid copying them like this
  52. * av_dict_set(&d, k, v, AV_DICT_DONT_STRDUP_KEY | AV_DICT_DONT_STRDUP_VAL);
  53. *
  54. * AVDictionaryEntry *t = NULL;
  55. * while (t = av_dict_get(d, "", t, AV_DICT_IGNORE_SUFFIX)) {
  56. * <....> // iterate over all entries in d
  57. * }
  58. *
  59. * av_dict_free(&d);
