STL extensions from SGI

Detailed Description

Because libstdc++ based its implementation of the STL subsections of the library on the SGI 3.3 implementation, we inherited their extensions as well.

They are additionally documented in the online documentation, a copy of which is also shipped with the library source code (in .../docs/html/documentation.html). You can also read the documentation on SGI's site, which is still running even though the code is not maintained.

NB that the following notes are pulled from various comments all over the place, so they may seem stilted.

The identity_element functions are not part of the C++ standard; SGI provided them as an extension. Its argument is an operation, and its return value is the identity element for that operation. It is overloaded for addition and multiplication, and you can overload it for your own nefarious operations.

As an extension to the binders, SGI provided composition functors and wrapper functions to aid in their creation. The unary_compose functor is constructed from two functions/functors, f and g. Calling operator() with a single argument x returns f(g(x)). The function compose1 takes the two functions and constructs a unary_compose variable for you.

binary_compose is constructed from three functors, f, g1, and g2. Its operator() returns f(g1(x),g2(x)). The function takes f, g1, and g2, and constructs the binary_compose instance for you. For example, if f returns an int, then

  int answer = (compose2(f,g1,g2))(x);

is equivalent to

  int temp1 = g1(x);
  int temp2 = g2(x);
  int answer = f(temp1,temp2);

But the first form is more compact, and can be passed around as a functor to other algorithms.

As an extension, SGI provided a functor called identity. When a functor is required but no operations are desired, this can be used as a pass-through. Its operator() returns its argument unchanged.

select1st and select2nd are extensions provided by SGI. Their operator()s take a std::pair as an argument, and return either the first member or the second member, respectively. They can be used (especially with the composition functors) to "strip" data from a sequence before performing the remainder of an algorithm.

The operator() of the project1st functor takes two arbitrary arguments and returns the first one, while project2nd returns the second one. They are extensions provided by SGI.

These three functors are each constructed from a single arbitrary variable/value. Later, their operator()s completely ignore any arguments passed, and return the stored value.

constant_void_fun's operator() takes no arguments
constant_unary_fun's operator() takes one argument (ignored)
constant_binary_fun's operator() takes two arguments (ignored)

The helper creator functions constant0, constant1, and constant2 each take a "result" argument and construct variables of the appropriate functor type.

template<typename _InputIterator, typename _Size, typename _OutputIterator>

pair<_InputIterator, _OutputIterator> __gnu_cxx::copy_n	(	_InputIterator	__first,
		_Size	__count,
		_OutputIterator	__result
	)			`[inline]`

Copies the range [first,first+count) into [result,result+count).

Parameters:

	first	An input iterator.
	count	The number of elements to copy.
	result	An output iterator.

Returns:: A std::pair composed of first+count and result+count.

This is an SGI extension. This inline function will boil down to a call to memmove whenever possible. Failing that, if random access iterators are passed, then the loop count will be known (and therefore a candidate for compiler optimizations such as unrolling).
