Description

A 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 map class supports bidirectional iterators.

A map satisfies all of the requirements of a container and of a reversible container and of an associative container. For a map<Key,T> the key_type is Key and the value_type is std::pair<const Key,T>.

Compare is the ordering function for Keys (e.g. std::less<Key>).

Allocator is the allocator to allocate the value_types (e.g. allocator< std::pair<const Key, T> > ).

map public construct/copy/destruct

  1. map();

    Effects: Default constructs an empty map.

    Complexity: Constant.

  2. explicit map(const Compare & comp, 
                 const allocator_type & a = allocator_type());

    Effects: Constructs an empty map using the specified comparison object and allocator.

    Complexity: Constant.

  3. template<typename InputIterator> 
      map(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, 
          const Compare & comp = Compare(), 
          const allocator_type & a = allocator_type());

    Effects: Constructs an empty map using the specified comparison object and allocator, and inserts elements from the range [first ,last ).

    Complexity: Linear in N if the range [first ,last ) is already sorted using comp and otherwise N logN, where N is last - first.

  4. template<typename InputIterator> 
      map(ordered_unique_range_t, InputIterator first, InputIterator last, 
          const Compare & comp = Compare(), 
          const allocator_type & a = allocator_type());

    Effects: Constructs an empty map using the specified comparison object and allocator, and inserts elements from the ordered unique range [first ,last). This function is more efficient than the normal range creation for ordered ranges.

    Requires: [first ,last) must be ordered according to the predicate and must be unique values.

    Complexity: Linear in N.

  5. map(const map & x);

    Effects: Copy constructs a map.

    Complexity: Linear in x.size().

  6. map(BOOST_RV_REF(map) x);

    Effects: Move constructs a map. Constructs *this using x's resources.

    Complexity: Constant.

    Postcondition: x is emptied.

  7. map(const map & x, const allocator_type & a);

    Effects: Copy constructs a map using the specified allocator.

    Complexity: Linear in x.size().

  8. map(BOOST_RV_REF(map) x, const allocator_type & a);

    Effects: Move constructs a map using the specified allocator. Constructs *this using x's resources.

    Complexity: Constant if x == x.get_allocator(), linear otherwise.

    Postcondition: x is emptied.

  9. map& operator=(BOOST_COPY_ASSIGN_REF(map) x);

    Effects: Makes *this a copy of x.

    Complexity: Linear in x.size().

  10. map& operator=(BOOST_RV_REF(map) x);

    Effects: this->swap(x.get()).

    Complexity: Constant.
