Description

A multiset is a kind of associative container that supports equivalent keys (possibly contains multiple copies of the same key value) and provides for fast retrieval of the keys themselves. Class multiset supports bidirectional iterators.

A multiset satisfies all of the requirements of a container and of a reversible container, and of an associative container). multiset also provides most operations described for duplicate keys.

Template Parameters

  1. typename Key

    is the type to be inserted in the set, which is also the key_type

  2. typename Compare = std::less<Key>

    is the comparison functor used to order keys

  3. typename Allocator = std::allocator<Key>

    is the allocator to be used to allocate memory for this container

  4. typename MultiSetOptions = tree_assoc_defaults

    is an packed option type generated using using boost::container::tree_assoc_options.

multiset public construct/copy/destruct

  1. multiset();

    Effects: Default constructs an empty set.

               const allocator_type & a = allocator_type());

    Effects: Constructs an empty set 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.

  5. template<typename InputIterator> 
      multiset(ordered_range_t, InputIterator first, InputIterator last, 
               const Compare & comp = Compare(), 
               const allocator_type & a = allocator_type());

    Effects: Constructs an empty multiset using the specified comparison object and allocator, and inserts elements from the ordered 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.

    Complexity: Linear in N.

    Note: Non-standard extension.

  6. multiset(std::initializer_list< value_type > il,

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

    Requires: [il.begin(), il.end()) must be ordered according to the predicate and must be unique values.

    Complexity: Linear in N.

    Note: Non-standard extension.

  8. multiset(const multiset & x);

    Effects: Copy constructs a set.

    Complexity: Linear in x.size().
