Detailed Description

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
class std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >

A standard container which offers fixed time access to individual elements in any order.

Meets the requirements of a container, a reversible container, and a sequence, including the optional sequence requirements with the exception of push_front and pop_front.

In some terminology a vector can be described as a dynamic C-style array, it offers fast and efficient access to individual elements in any order and saves the user from worrying about memory and size allocation. Subscripting ( [] ) access is also provided as with C-style arrays.

Member Function Documentation

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
void std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >::assign size_type  __n,
const _Tp &  __val
[inline]
 

Assigns a given value or range to a vector.

Parameters:
n Number of elements to be assigned.
val Value to be assigned.
This function can be used to assign a range to a vector or fill it with a specified number of copies of the given value. Note that the assignment completely changes the vector and that the resulting vector's size is the same as the number of elements assigned. Old data may be lost.

Definition at line 423 of file stl_vector.h.

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
const_reference std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >::at size_type  __n  )  const [inline]
 

Provides access to the data contained in the vector.

Parameters:
n The element for which data should be accessed.
Returns:
Read-only (constant) reference to data.
This function provides for safer data access. The parameter is first checked that it is in the range of the vector. The function throws out_of_range if the check fails.

Remove a range of elements from a vector.

Parameters:
first Iterator pointing to the first element to be erased.
last Iterator pointing to the last element to be erased.
Returns:
Doc Me! (Iterator pointing to new element at old location?)
This function will erase the elements in the given range and shorten the vector accordingly.

Note This operation could be expensive and if it is frequently used the user should consider using std::list. The user is also cautioned 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.

Parameters:
position Iterator pointing to element to be erased.
Returns:
Doc Me! (Iterator pointing to new element at old location?)
This function will erase the element at the given position and thus shorten the vector by one.

Note This operation could be expensive and if it is frequently used the user should consider using std::list. The user is also cautioned 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.

Subscript access to the data contained in the vector.

Parameters:
n The element for which data should be accessed.

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
reference std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >::operator[] size_type  __n  )  [inline]
 

Subscript access to the data contained in the vector.

Parameters:
n The element for which data should be accessed.

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
void std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >::pop_back  )  [inline]
 

Removes last element from vector.

This is a typical stack operation. It allows us to shrink the vector by one.

Note that no data is returned and if last element's data is needed it should be retrieved before pop_back() is called.

Definition at line 628 of file stl_vector.h.

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
void std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >::push_back  )  [inline]
 

Add an element to the end of the vector. The element is default-constructed.

Note:
You must define _GLIBCPP_DEPRECATED to make this visible; see c++config.h.

Definition at line 510 of file stl_vector.h.

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
void std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >::push_back const _Tp &  __x  )  [inline]
 

Add data to the end of the vector.

Parameters:
x Data to be added.
This is a typical stack operation. The function creates an element at the end of the vector and assigns the given data to it. Due to the nature of a vector this operation can be done in constant time if the vector has preallocated space available.

Definition at line 248 of file stl_vector.h.

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
void std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >::reserve size_type  __n  )  [inline]
 

Attempt to preallocate enough memory for specified number of elements.

Parameters:
n Number of elements required
This function attempts to reserve enough memory for the vector to hold the specified number of elements. If the number requested is more than max_size() length_error is thrown.

The advantage of this function is that if optimal code is a necessity and the user can determine the number of elements that will be required the user can reserve the memory and thus prevent a possible reallocation of memory and copy of vector data.

template<class _Tp, class _Alloc = allocator<_Tp>>
void std::vector< _Tp, _Alloc >::resize size_type  __new_size  )  [inline]
 

Resizes the vector to the specified number of elements.

Parameters:
new_size Number of elements the vector should contain.
This function will resize the vector to the specified number of elements. If the number is smaller than the vector's current size the vector is truncated, otherwise the vector is extended and new elements are left uninitialized.

Resizes the vector to the specified number of elements.

Parameters:
new_size Number of elements the vector should contain.
x Data with which new elements should be populated.
