hash_map::hash_map

Constructs a hash_map that is empty or that is a copy of all or part of some other hash_map.

hash_map( );
explicit hash_map(
   const Traits& _Comp
);
hash_map(
   const Traits& _Comp,
   const Allocator& _Al
);
hash_map(
   const hash_map& _Right
);
template<class InputIterator>
   hash_map(
      InputIterator _First,
      InputIterator _Last
   );
template<class InputIterator>
   hash_map(
      InputIterator _First,
      InputIterator _Last,
      const Traits& _Comp
   );
template<class InputIterator>
   hash_map(
      InputIterator _First,
      InputIterator _Last,
      const Traits& _Comp,
      const Allocator& _Al
   );

Parameters

  • _Al
    The storage allocator class to be used for this hash_map object, which defaults to Allocator.

  • _Comp
    The comparison function of type constTraits used to order the elements in the hash_map, which defaults to hash_compare.

  • _Right
    The hash_map of which the constructed map is to be a copy.

  • _First
    The position of the first element in the range of elements to be copied.

  • _Last
    The position of the first element beyond the range of elements to be copied.

Remarks

All constructors store a type of allocator object that manages memory storage for the hash_map and that can later be returned by calling get_allocator. The allocator parameter is often omitted in the class declarations and preprocessing macros used to substitute alternative allocators.

All constructors initialize their hash_map.

All constructors store a function object of type Traits that is used to establish an order among the keys of the hash_map and that can later be returned by calling key_comp.

The first three constructors specify an empty initial hash_map, the second, in addition, specifying the type of comparison function (_Comp) to be used in establishing the order of the elements and the third explicitly specifying the allocator type (_Al) to be used. The keyword explicit suppresses certain kinds of automatic type conversion.

The fourth constructor specifies a copy of the hash_map _Right.

The last three constructors copy the range [_First, _Last) of a hash_map with increasing explicitness in specifying the type of comparison function of class Traits and allocator.

In Visual C++ .NET 2003, members of the <hash_map> and <hash_set> header files are no longer in the std namespace, but rather have been moved into the stdext namespace. See The stdext Namespace for more information.
