insert


Description:

public void insert (owned K key, owned V value)

Inserts a key/value pair into a Tree.

If the given key already exists in the Tree its corresponding value is set to the new value. If you supplied a value_destroy_func when creating the Tree, the old value is freed using that function. If you supplied a key_destroy_func when creating the Tree , the passed key is freed using that function.

The tree is automatically 'balanced' as new key/value pairs are added, so that the distance from the root to every leaf is as small as possible.
