// multimap_clear.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <map>
#include <iostream>

int main( )
{
   using namespace std;
   multimap<int, int> m1;
   multimap<int, int>::size_type i;
   typedef pair<int, int> Int_Pair;

   m1.insert(Int_Pair(1, 1));
   m1.insert(Int_Pair(2, 4));

   i = m1.size();
   cout << "The size of the multimap is initially "
        << i << "." << endl;

   m1.clear();
   i = m1.size();
   cout << "The size of the multimap after clearing is "
        << i << "." << endl;
}

The size of the multimap is initially 2.
The size of the multimap after clearing is 0.
