Synopsis

template<
      typename T1 = implementation-defined
    , typename T2 = implementation-defined
    , ...
    , typename Tn = implementation-defined
    >
struct list
{
};

Description

A list is a Forward Sequence of types. It's also an Extensible Sequence that supports constant time insertion and removal of elements at the beginning (through push_front), and linear time insertion and removal of elements at the end or in the middle (through insert/erase algorithms).

Example

typedef list<float,double,long double> floats;
typedef push_front<floating_types,my_float>::type ext_floats;
BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT((boost::is_same< front<ext_floats>::type, my_float >::value));

Definition
