std::map<Key,T,Compare,Allocator>::emplace_hint: std::map<Key,T,Compare,Allocator>::emplace_hint

NAME

std::map<Key,T,Compare,Allocator>::emplace_hint - std::map<Key,T,Compare,Allocator>::emplace_hint

Synopsis


template <class... Args> (since C++11)
iterator emplace_hint( const_iterator hint, Args&&... args );


Inserts a new element to the container as close as possible to the position just before hint. The element is constructed in-place, i.e. no copy or move operations are performed.
The constructor of the element type (value_type, that is, std::pair<const Key, T>) is called with exactly the same arguments as supplied to the function, forwarded with std::forward<Args>(args)....
No iterators or references are invalidated.

Parameters


hint - iterator to the position before which the new element will be inserted
args - arguments to forward to the constructor of the element

Return value


Returns an iterator to the newly inserted element.
If the insertion failed because the element already exists, returns an iterator to the already existing element with the equivalent key.

Exceptions


If an exception is thrown by any operation, this function has no effect (strong exception guarantee).

Complexity


Logarithmic in the size of the container in general, but amortized constant if the new element is inserted just before hint.
