Defined in:
lib/active_support/ordered_hash.rb

Overview

The order of iteration over hashes in Ruby 1.8 is undefined. For example, you do not know the order in which keys will return keys, or each yield pairs. ActiveSupport::OrderedHash implements a hash that preserves insertion order, as in Ruby 1.9:

oh = ActiveSupport::OrderedHash.new
oh[:a] = 1
oh[:b] = 2
oh.keys # => [:a, :b], this order is guaranteed

ActiveSupport::OrderedHash is namespaced to prevent conflicts with other implementations.

Constructor Details

#initialize(*args, &block) ⇒ OrderedHash

In MRI the Hash class is core and written in C. In particular, methods are programmed with explicit C function calls and polymorphism is not honored.

For example, []= is crucial in this implementation to maintain the @keys array but hash.c invokes rb_hash_aset() originally. This prevents method reuse through inheritance and forces us to reimplement stuff.

For instance, we cannot use the inherited #merge! because albeit the algorithm itself would work, our []= is not being called at all by the C code.
