Boost Pointer Container Library

# Pointer Container Library

# Class `ptr_multiset_adapter`

This class is used to build custom pointer containers with an underlying multiset-like container. The interface of the class is an extension of the interface from `associative_ptr_container`.

Hierarchy:

- reversible_ptr_container
  - associative_ptr_container
    - ptr_set_adapter
    - `ptr_multiset_adapter`
    - ptr_map_adapter
    - ptr_multi_map_adapter
      - ptr_set
      - ptr_multi_set
      - ptr_map
      - ptr_multimap

Synopsis:

    namespace boost
    {
        template
        <
            class Key,
            class VoidPtrMultiSet,
            class CloneAllocator = heap_clone_allocator
        >
        class ptr_multiset_adapter
        {

        public: // modifiers
            iterator  insert( Key* x );
            template< class Key2 >
            iterator  insert( compatible-smart-ptr<Key2> x );

        public: // pointer container requirements
            void      transfer( iterator object, ptr_multiset_adapter& from );
            size_type transfer( iterator first, iterator last, ptr_multiset_adapter& from );
            template< class Range >
            size_type transfer( const Range& r, ptr_multiset_adapter& from );
            void      transfer( ptr_multiset_adapter& from );

        }; //  class 'ptr_multiset_adapter'

    } // namespace 'boost'

# Semantics

## Semantics: modifiers

- `iterator insert( key_type* x );`

  > - Requirements: `x != 0`
  > - Effects: Takes ownership of `x`. The returned iterator points to the element with key `x`.
  > - Throws: bad_pointer if `x == 0`
  > - Exception safety: Strong guarantee

- `template< class Key2 > iterator insert( compatible-smart-ptr<Key2> x );`

  > - Effects: `return insert( x.release() );`

## Semantics: pointer container requirements

- `void transfer( iterator object, ptr_multiset_adapter& from );`

  > - Requirements: `not from.empty()`
  > - Effects: Inserts the object defined by `object` into the container and remove it from `from`.
  > - Postconditions: `size()` is one more, `from.size()` is one less.
  > - Exception safety: Strong guarantee

- `void transfer( iterator first, iterator last, ptr_multiset_adapter& from );`

  > - Requirements: `not from.empty()`
  > - Effects: Inserts the objects defined by the range `[first,last)` into the container and remove it from `from`.
  > - Postconditions: Let `N == std::distance(first,last);` then `size()` is `N` more, `from.size()` is `N` less.
  > - Exception safety: Basic guarantee

- `template< class Range > void transfer( const Range& r, ptr_multiset_adapter& from );`

  > - Effects: `transfer( boost::begin(r), boost::end(r), from );`

- `void transfer( ptr_multiset_adapter& from );`

  > - Effects: `transfer( from.begin(), from.end(), from );`.
  > - Postconditions: `from.empty();`
  > - Exception safety: Basic guarantee
