lrucache11

A header only C++11 LRU Cache template class that allows you to define key, value and optionally the Map type. uses a double linked list and a std::unordered_map style container to provide fast insert, delete and update No dependencies other than the C++ standard library. This is a C++11 remake of my earlier LRUCache project (https://github.com/mohaps/lrucache) The goal was to create a fast LRUCache header only library and to avoid any dependencies like boost.

No dependencies other than the C++ standard library. This is a C++11 remake of my earlier LRUCache project (https://github.com/mohaps/lrucache)

Enjoy and drop me a line.

Usage Example

#include "LRUCache11.hpp"
namespace lru
{
	void test()
	{
		lru11::Cache<std::string, std::string> cache(3,0);
		cache.insert("hello", "world");
		cache.insert("foo", "bar");
		
		std::cout<<"checking refresh : "<<cache.get("hello")<<std::endl;
		cache.insert("hello1", "world1");
		cache.insert("foo1", "bar1");
	}
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	lru::test();
	return 0;
}

Build with g++ -o sample_main -std=c++11 SampleMain.cpp

Note: for older gcc versions like 4.8, 5.0 etc.

add -lpthread to the compilation line (as suggested by @ekg via https://github.com/mohaps/lrucache11/pull/3
