Hello Sara,
you are missing my point. My point is that when a hashtable contains
these two elements
example:
BUCKET_ENTRY for h=15
--- Bucket1 : key == numeric -> h= numeric hash value == 15
\-------- Bucket2: key == some string key, with a hash value equal
to 15
Lets assume we want to delete the key "THI_HASH_A_HASH_FUNCTION_VALUE_OF_15"
then the code in question will first hash it and gets h==15. The next
thing it will do is go through the linked list of buckets for h==15.
Unfortunately the check there is broken. It will first check, that p->h
is == 15 and then check if p->nKeyLength==0 which obviously
is for our Bucket1. Unfortunately this is already enough to evaluate to
true. But it is not what we intended. We wanted to delete bucket2.
But we end up with Bucket1 deleted.
