std::swap(std::multimap)

Defined in header `<map>`
template< class Key, class T, class Compare, class Alloc > void swap( std::multimap<Key,T,Compare,Alloc>& lhs, std::multimap<Key,T,Compare,Alloc>& rhs );		(until C++17)
template< class Key, class T, class Compare, class Alloc > void swap( std::multimap<Key,T,Compare,Alloc>& lhs, std::multimap<Key,T,Compare,Alloc>& rhs ) noexcept(/* see below */);		(since C++17)

Specializes the std::swap algorithm for std::multimap. Swaps the contents of lhs and rhs. Calls lhs.swap(rhs).

Parameters

lhs, rhs

-

containers whose contents to swap

Return value

(none)

Complexity

Constant.

Exceptions

noexcept specification:

noexcept(noexcept(lhs.swap(rhs)))

(since C++17)

Notes

Although the overloads of std::swap for container adaptors are introduced in C++11, container adaptors can already be swapped by std::swap in C++98. Such calls to std::swap usually have linear time complexity, but better complexity may be provided.

Example

Run this code

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <map>
 
int main()
{
    std::multimap<int, char> alice{{1, 'a'}, {2, 'b'}, {3, 'c'}};
    std::multimap<int, char> bob{{7, 'Z'}, {8, 'Y'}, {9, 'X'}, {10, 'W'}};
 
    auto print = [](std::pair<const int, char>& n) { 
        std::cout << " " << n.first << '(' << n.second << ')'; 
    };
 
    // Print state before swap
    std::cout << "alice:";
    std::for_each(alice.begin(), alice.end(), print);
    std::cout << "\n" "bob  :";
    std::for_each(bob.begin(), bob.end(), print);
    std::cout << '\n';
 
    std::cout << "-- SWAP\n";
    std::swap(alice, bob);
 
    // Print state after swap
    std::cout << "alice:";
    std::for_each(alice.begin(), alice.end(), print);
    std::cout << "\n" "bob  :";
    std::for_each(bob.begin(), bob.end(), print);
    std::cout << '\n';
}

Output:

alice: 1(a) 2(b) 3(c)
bob  : 7(Z) 8(Y) 9(X) 10(W)
-- SWAP
alice: 7(Z) 8(Y) 9(X) 10(W)
bob  : 1(a) 2(b) 3(c)
