+<p>Internally, <em>NNG</em> uses a map of numeric identifiers to data structures.
+This feature is also exposed for application use, as a “supplemental” feature.</p>
+<p>When using these functions, it is necessary to add the <code>#include &lt;nng/supplemental/util/idhash.h&gt;</code>
+include file to list of includes.</p>
+<h2 id="id-map-structure"><a class="header" href="#id-map-structure">ID Map Structure</a></h2>
+<pre><code class="language-c">#include &lt;nng/nng.h&gt;
+#include &lt;nng/supplemental/util/idhash.h&gt;
+
+typedef struct nng_id_map_s nng_id_map;
+</code></pre>
+<p>The ID map structure, <a name="a001"></a><code>nng_id_map</code> provides a table of identifiers mapping
+to user-supplied pointers (which must not be <code>NULL</code>). The identifiers can be
+thought of as indices into the table, with the pointers providing the reference
+for the user supplied data.</p>
+<p>The values of identifiers can be supplied by the user, or can be allocated automatically
+by <code>nng_id_map</code> from a predefined range. The starting point for allocations
+can also be randomly within the range.</p>
+<p>The identifiers are 64-bit unsigned integers and can be sparse; the structure
+will use space efficiently even if identifiers are very far apart.

+</code></pre>
+<p>The <a name="a002"></a><code>nng_id_map_alloc</code> function allocates a map without any data in it,
+and returns a pointer to it in <em>map_p</em>. When allocating identifiers dynamically,
+the values will be chosen from the range defined by <em>lo</em> and <em>hi</em>, inclusive.</p>
+<p>The <em>flags</em> argument is a bit mask of flags that can adjust behavior of the map.
+The only flag defined at present
+is <code>NNG_MAP_RANDOM</code>, which causes the first identifier allocation to start at a random
+point within the range.
+This is useful to reduce the odds of different instances of an application using
+the same identifiers at the same time.</p>
+<p>If both <em>lo</em> and <em>hi</em> are zero, then the values <code>0</code> and <code>0xffffffff</code> are substituted
+in their place, giving a full range of 32-bit identifiers.</p>
+<p>This function can return <a href="/api/errors.html#NNG_ENOMEM"><code>NNG_ENOMEM</code></a> if it is unable to allocate resources, otherwise
+it returns zero on success.</p>

+<p>Identifiers are allocated in increasing order, without reusing old identifiers until the

+<pre><code class="language-c">bool nng_id_visit(nng_id_map *map, uint64_t *id_p, void **value_p, uint32_t *cursor);
+</code></pre>
+<p>The <a name="a008"></a><code>nng_id_visit</code> function is used to iterate over all items in the table.
+The caller starts the iteration by setting the <em>cursor</em> to 0 before calling it.
+For each call, the associated key and value of the next item will be returned in <em>id_p</em>,
+and <em>value_p</em> and the <em>cursor</em> will be updated.
+When all items have been iterated, the function returns <code>false</code>.
+The order of items returned is not guaranteed to be sequential.
+The caller must not attempt to derive any value of the <em>cursor</em> as it refers to internal table indices.</p>
+<p>Entries may be safely removed from <em>map</em> while iterating.</p>
+<p>However, if new entries are added to the table while iterating, the result of
+iteration is undefined; entries may be repeated or omitted during such an iteration.</p>
+<p>The caller must not attempt to derive any value of the <em>cursor</em> as it refers to internal
+table indices.</p>

+<p><a name="footnote-1"><a href="#to-footnote-1">1</a></a>: The ID map is capable of storing at most 2<sup>32</sup> identifiers, even though the identifers may
+themselves be much larger than this.</p>
+<p><a name="footnote-2"><a href="#to-footnote-2">2</a></a>: The concern about possibly reusing a
+recently released identifier comes into consideration after the range has wrapped.
+Given a sufficiently large range, this is unlikely to be a concern.</p>
