SwiftCollections.FixedMathSharp 7.1.0

SwiftCollections

Specialized .NET collections for hot paths that need tighter control over storage, allocation, iteration, and spatial queries.

The BCL collections are excellent defaults. SwiftCollections is for the code where profiling says the default is no longer enough: simulation loops, games, spatial indexing, deterministic runtimes, and allocation-sensitive tooling.

Why SwiftCollections?

• Low-allocation lists, queues, stacks, hash tables, buckets, packed sets, sparse sets, and sparse maps.
• Dense iteration and stable or generation-checked handles for entity-style workloads.
• BVH, spatial hash, and octree queries over System.Numerics volumes.
• Fixed-point query companions powered by FixedMathSharp.
• Explicit state-backed serialization, with Standard and Lean package variants.
• Benchmarks and full reachable coverage enforced as part of the repository workflow.

Install

Choose one package family:

dotnet add package SwiftCollections

Or install a companion package when you need fixed-point query volumes. NuGet brings in the matching SwiftCollections and FixedMathSharp packages:

dotnet add package SwiftCollections.FixedMathSharp

Use the matching .Lean packages as a pair. Lean keeps the collection APIs but removes the MemoryPack runtime; it is useful when your application owns its serialization stack or wants the smaller dependency surface.

A quick taste

SwiftGenerationalBucket<T> gives you dense storage with handles that stop resolving after their slot is reused:

using System;
using SwiftCollections;

var actors = new SwiftGenerationalBucket<string>();
SwiftHandle player = actors.Add("player");

if (actors.TryGet(player, out string actor))
{
    Console.WriteLine(actor);
}

actors.Remove(player);

For externally owned compact integer IDs, start with SwiftSparseSet or SwiftSparseMap<T>. For broad-phase queries, start with SwiftBVH<TKey>, SwiftSpatialHash<TKey>, or SwiftOctree<TKey>.

Using Unity? The maintained SwiftCollections-Unity packages add Unity-serializable adapters, Bounds conversions, GameObject pooling, and FixedMathSharp integration.

Compatibility

The libraries target netstandard2.1 and net8.0. CI validates Standard and Lean builds on Windows and Linux.
