//! A flat_map is a kind of associative container that supports unique keys (contains at
//! most one of each key value) and provides for fast retrieval of values of another 
//! type T based on the keys. The flat_map class supports random-access iterators.
//! 
//! A flat_map satisfies all of the requirements of a container and of a reversible 
//! container and of an associative container. A flat_map also provides 
//! most operations described for unique keys. For a 
//! flat_map<Key,T> the key_type is Key and the value_type is std::pair<Key,T>
//! (unlike std::map<Key, T> which value_type is std::pair<<b>const</b> Key, T>).
//!
//! Pred is the ordering function for Keys (e.g. <i>std::less<Key></i>).
//!
//! Alloc is the allocator to allocate the value_types
//! (e.g. <i>boost::interprocess:allocator< std::pair<Key, T></i>).
//! 
//! flat_map is similar to std::map but it's implemented like an ordered vector.
//! This means that inserting a new element into a flat_map invalidates
//! previous iterators and references
//!
//! Erasing an element of a flat_map invalidates iterators and references 
//! pointing to elements that come after (their keys are bigger) the erased element.
