Description

Map is a Sorted Associative Container that associates objects of type Key with objects of type Data. Map is a Pair Associative Container, meaning that its value type is pair<const Key, Data>. It is also a Unique Associative Container, meaning that no two elements have the same key.

Map has the important property that inserting a new element into a map does not invalidate iterators that point to existing elements. Erasing an element from a map also does not invalidate any iterators, except, of course, for iterators that actually point to the element that is being erased.

Example

struct ltstr {
 bool operator()(const char* s1, const char* s2) const {
  return strcmp(s1, s2) < 0;
 }
};
int main() {
 map<const char*, int, ltstr> months;
 months["january"] = 31;
 months["february"] = 28;
 months["march"] = 31;
 months["april"] = 30;
 months["may"] = 31;
 months["june"] = 30;
 months["july"] = 31;
 months["august"] = 31;
 months["september"] = 30;
 months["october"] = 31;
 months["november"] = 30;
 months["december"] = 31;
 cout << "june –> " << months["june"] << endl;
 map<const char*, int, ltstr>::iterator cur = months.find("june");
 map<const char*, int, ltstr>::iterator prev = cur;
 map<const char*, int, ltstr>::iterator next = cur;
 ++next;
 --prev;
 cout << "Previous (in alphabetical order) is " << (*prev).first << endl;
 cout << "Next (in alphabetical order) is " << (*next).first << endl;
}

Template parameters

Parameter Description Default
Key The map's key type. This is also defined as map::key_type.

New members

These members are not defined in the Unique Sorted Associative Container and Pair Associative Container requirements, but are unique to map:

Member function Description
data_type& operator[](const key_type& k) [3] Returns a reference to the object that is associated with a particular key. If the map does not already contain such an object, operator[] inserts the default object data_type(). [3]

Notes

[1] Map::iterator is not a mutable iterator, because map::value_type is not Assignable. That is, if i is of type map::iterator and p is of type map::value_type, then *i = p is not a valid expression. However, map::iterator isn't a constant iterator either, because it can be used to modify the object that it points to. Using the same notation as above, (*i).second = p is a valid expression. The same point applies to map::reverse_iterator.

[2] This member function relies on member template functions, which at present (early 1998) are not supported by all compilers. If your compiler supports member templates, you can call this function with any type of input iterator. If your compiler does not yet support member templates, though, then the arguments must either be of type const value_type* or of type map::const_iterator.

[3] Since operator[] might insert a new element into the map, it can't possibly be a const member function. Note that the definition of operator[] is extremely simple: m[k] is equivalent to (*((m.insert(value_type(k, data_type()))).first)).second. Strictly speaking, this member function is unnecessary: it exists only for convenience.
