std::forward_list is a container that supports fast insertion and removal of elements from anywhere in the container. Fast random access is not supported. It is implemented as a singly-linked list and essentially does not have any overhead compared to its implementation in C. Compared to std::list this container provides more space efficient storage when bidirectional iteration is not needed.

Adding, removing and moving the elements within the list, or across several lists, does not invalidate the iterators currently referring to other elements in the list. However, an iterator or reference referring to an element is invalidated when the corresponding element is removed (via erase_after) from the list.

std::forward_list meets the requirements of Template:concept (except for the size member function and that operator=='s complexity is always linear), Template:concept and Template:concept.

Contents

Template parameters

T - The type of the elements.
The requirements that are imposed on the elements depend on the actual operations performed on the container. Generally, it is required that element type is a complete type and meets the requirements of Erasable, but many member functions impose stricter requirements. (until C++17)

The requirements that are imposed on the elements depend on the actual operations performed on the container. Generally, it is required that element type meets the requirements of Erasable, but many member functions impose stricter requirements. This container (but not its members) can be instantiated with an incomplete element type if the allocator satisfies the allocator completeness requirements.

[edit]

Allocator - An allocator that is used to acquire/release memory and to construct/destroy the elements in that memory. The type must meet the requirements of Allocator. The behavior is undefined(until C++20)The program is ill-formed(since C++20) if Allocator::value_type is not the same as T.[edit]
