A Container is an object used to store other objects and taking care of the management of the memory used by the objects it contains.

Contents

Requirements

  • C Container type
  • T Element type
  • a, b Objects of type C

Types

name type notes
value_type T Template:concept
reference lvalue of T
const_reference const lvalue of T
iterator iterator pointing to T Template:concept
convertible to const_iterator
const_iterator const iterator pointing to T Template:concept
difference_type signed integer must be the same as iterator_traits::difference_type for iterator and const_iterator
size_type unsigned integer large enough to represent all positive values of difference_type

Methods and operators

expression return type semantics conditions complexity
C(); C Creates an empty container Post: u.empty() == true Constant
C(a) C Create a copy of a Pre: T must be Template:concept
Post: a == X(a)
Linear
a = b C& All elements of a are destroyed or move assigned to elements of b Post: a == b Linear
(&a)->~C() void Destroy all elements and free all memory Linear
a.begin() (const_)iterator Iterator to the first element Constant
a.end() (const_)iterator Iterator to one passed the last element Constant
a.cbegin()(since C++11) const_iterator const_cast<const C&>(a).begin() Constant
a.cend()(since C++11) const_iterator const_cast<const C&>(a).end() Constant
a == b convertible to bool Makes C Template:concept Pre: T must be Template:concept Linear
a != b convertible to bool !(a==b) Linear
a.swap(b) void exchanges the values of a and b Constant[1]
swap(a,b) void a.swap(b) Constant[1]
a.size() size_type distance(a.begin(),a.end()) Constant
a.max_size() size_type b.size() where b is the largest possible container Constant
a.empty() convertible to bool a.begin() == a.end() Constant
