Member Function Documentation

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

iterator std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::begin

(

)

const [inline]

Returns a read/write iterator that points to the first element in the set. Iteration is done in ascending order according to the keys.

Reimplemented in std::__debug::set< _Key, _Compare, _Allocator >.

Definition at line 230 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

void std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::clear

(

)

[inline]

Erases all elements in a set. Note that this function only erases the elements, and that if the elements themselves are pointers, the pointed-to memory is not touched in any way. Managing the pointer is the user's responsibilty.

Reimplemented in std::__debug::set< _Key, _Compare, _Allocator >.

Definition at line 397 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

size_type std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::count

(

const key_type &

__x

)

const [inline]

Finds the number of elements.

Parameters:

x

Element to located.

Returns:

Number of elements with specified key.

This function only makes sense for multisets; for set the result will either be 0 (not present) or 1 (present).

Definition at line 411 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

bool std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::empty

(

)

const [inline]

Returns true if the set is empty.

Definition at line 261 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

iterator std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::end

(

)

const [inline]

Returns a read/write iterator that points one past the last element in the set. Iteration is done in ascending order according to the keys.

Reimplemented in std::__debug::set< _Key, _Compare, _Allocator >.

Definition at line 238 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

std::pair<iterator, iterator> std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::equal_range

(

const key_type &

__x

)

[inline]

Finds a subsequence matching given key.

Parameters:

x

Key to be located.

Returns:

Pair of iterators that possibly points to the subsequence matching given key.

This function is equivalent to

    std::make_pair(c.lower_bound(val),
                   c.upper_bound(val))

(but is faster than making the calls separately).

This function probably only makes sense for multisets.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

void std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::erase	(	iterator	__first,
		iterator	__last
	)			[inline]

Erases a [first,last) range of elements from a set.

Parameters:

	first	Iterator pointing to the start of the range to be erased.
	last	Iterator pointing to the end of the range to be erased.

This function erases a sequence of elements from a set. Note that this function only erases the element, and that if the element is itself a pointer, the pointed-to memory is not touched in any way. Managing the pointer is the user's responsibilty.

Definition at line 387 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

size_type std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::erase

(

const key_type &

__x

)

[inline]

Erases elements according to the provided key.

Parameters:

x

Key of element to be erased.

Returns:

The number of elements erased.

This function erases all the elements located by the given key from a set. Note that this function only erases the element, and that if the element is itself a pointer, the pointed-to memory is not touched in any way. Managing the pointer is the user's responsibilty.

Reimplemented in std::__debug::set< _Key, _Compare, _Allocator >.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

void std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::erase

(

iterator

__position

)

[inline]

Erases an element from a set.

Parameters:

position

An iterator pointing to the element to be erased.

This function erases an element, pointed to by the given iterator, from a set. Note that this function only erases the element, and that if the element is itself a pointer, the pointed-to memory is not touched in any way. Managing the pointer is the user's responsibilty.

Definition at line 357 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

iterator std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::find

(

const key_type &

__x

)

[inline]

Tries to locate an element in a set.

Parameters:

x

Element to be located.

Returns:

Iterator pointing to sought-after element, or end() if not found.

This function takes a key and tries to locate the element with which the key matches. If successful the function returns an iterator pointing to the sought after element. If unsuccessful it returns the past-the-end ( end() ) iterator.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

allocator_type std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::get_allocator

(

)

const [inline]

Returns the allocator object with which the set was constructed.

Definition at line 222 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

template<class _InputIterator>

void std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::insert	(	_InputIterator	__first,
		_InputIterator	__last
	)			[inline]

A template function that attemps to insert a range of elements.

Parameters:

	first	Iterator pointing to the start of the range to be inserted.
	last	Iterator pointing to the end of the range.

Complexity similar to that of the range constructor.

Reimplemented in std::__debug::set< _Key, _Compare, _Allocator >.

Definition at line 344 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

iterator std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::insert	(	iterator	__position,
		const value_type &	__x
	)			[inline]

Attempts to insert an element into the set.

Parameters:

	position	An iterator that serves as a hint as to where the element should be inserted.
	x	Element to be inserted.

Returns:

An iterator that points to the element with key of x (may or may not be the element passed in).

This function is not concerned about whether the insertion took place, and thus does not return a boolean like the single-argument insert() does. Note that the first parameter is only a hint and can potentially improve the performance of the insertion process. A bad hint would cause no gains in efficiency.

See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/23_containers/howto.html#4 for more on "hinting".

Insertion requires logarithmic time (if the hint is not taken).

Definition at line 331 of file stl_set.h.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

std::pair<iterator,bool> std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::insert

(

const value_type &

__x

)

[inline]

Attempts to insert an element into the set.

Parameters:

x

Element to be inserted.

Returns:

A pair, of which the first element is an iterator that points to the possibly inserted element, and the second is a bool that is true if the element was actually inserted.

This function attempts to insert an element into the set. A set relies on unique keys and thus an element is only inserted if it is not already present in the set.

Insertion requires logarithmic time.

__x

)

[inline]

Finds the beginning of a subsequence matching given key.

Parameters:

x

Key to be located.

Returns:

Iterator pointing to first element equal to or greater than key, or end().

This function returns the first element of a subsequence of elements that matches the given key. If unsuccessful it returns an iterator pointing to the first element that has a greater value than given key or end() if no such element exists.

template<class _Key, class _Compare = std::less<_Key>, class _Alloc = std::allocator<_Key>>

reverse_iterator std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::rbegin

void std::set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc >::swap

(

set< _Key, _Compare, _Alloc > &

__x

)

[inline]

Swaps data with another set.

Parameters:

x

A set of the same element and allocator types.

This exchanges the elements between two sets in constant time. (It is only swapping a pointer, an integer, and an instance of the Compare type (which itself is often stateless and empty), so it should be quite fast.) Note that the global std::swap() function is specialized such that std::swap(s1,s2) will feed to this function.
