concurrent_unordered_multimap Class

The concurrent_unordered_multimap class is an concurrency-safe container that controls a varying-length sequence of elements of type std::pair<const K, _Element_type>. The sequence is represented in a way that enables concurrency-safe append, element access, iterator access and iterator traversal operations. Here, concurrency-safe means pointers or iterators are always valid. It's not a guarantee of element initialization, or of a particular traversal order.

concurrent_unordered_multimap

Constructs a concurrent unordered multimap.

explicit concurrent_unordered_multimap(
    size_type _Number_of_buckets = 8,
    const hasher& _Hasher = hasher(),
    const key_equal& key_equality = key_equal(),
    const allocator_type& _Allocator = allocator_type());

concurrent_unordered_multimap(
    const allocator_type& _Allocator);

template <typename _Iterator>
concurrent_unordered_multimap(_Iterator _Begin,
    _Iterator _End,
    size_type _Number_of_buckets = 8,
    const hasher& _Hasher = hasher(),
    const key_equal& key_equality = key_equal(),
    const allocator_type& _Allocator = allocator_type());

concurrent_unordered_multimap(
    const concurrent_unordered_multimap& _Umap);

concurrent_unordered_multimap(
    const concurrent_unordered_multimap& _Umap,
    const allocator_type& _Allocator);

concurrent_unordered_multimap(
    concurrent_unordered_multimap&& _Umap);

Parameters

_Iterator
The type of the input iterator.

_Number_of_buckets
The initial number of buckets for this unordered multimap.

Remarks

All constructors store an allocator object _Allocator and initialize the unordered multimap.

The first constructor specifies an empty initial multimap and explicitly specifies the number of buckets, hash function, equality function and allocator type to be used.

The second constructor specifies an allocator for the unordered multimap.

The third constructor specifies values supplied by the iterator range [ _Begin, _End).

The fourth and fifth constructors specify a copy of the concurrent unordered multimap _Umap.

The last constructor specifies a move of the concurrent unordered multimap _Umap.

count

Counts the number of elements matching a specified key. This function is concurrency safe.

size_type count(const key_type& KVal) const;

Parameters

KVal
The key to search for.

Return Value

The number of times number of times the key appears in the container.

empty

Tests whether no elements are present. This method is concurrency safe.

bool empty() const;

Return Value

true if the concurrent container is empty, false otherwise.

Remarks

In the presence of concurrent inserts, whether or not the concurrent container is empty may change immediately after calling this function, before the return value is even read.

end

iterator end();

const_iterator end() const;

Return Value

An iterator to the location succeeding the last element in the concurrent container.

std::pair<iterator,
    iterator> equal_range(
    const key_type& KVal);

std::pair<const_iterator,
    const_iterator> equal_range(
    const key_type& KVal) const;

Parameters

KVal
The key value to search for.

Return Value

A pair where the first element is an iterator to the beginning and the second element is an iterator to the end of the range.

Remarks

It is possible for concurrent inserts to cause additional keys to be inserted after the begin iterator and before the end iterator.

find

iterator find(const key_type& KVal);

const_iterator find(const key_type& KVal) const;

Parameters

KVal
The key value to search for.

Return Value

An iterator pointing to the location of the first element that matched the key provided, or the iterator end() if no such element exists.

allocator_type get_allocator() const;

Return Value

The stored allocator object for this concurrent container.

hash_function

Returns the stored hash function object.

Return Value

The stored hash function object.

insert

Adds elements to the concurrent_unordered_multimap object.

iterator insert(
    const value_type& value);

iterator insert(
    const_iterator _Where,
    const value_type& value);

template<class _Iterator>
void insert(_Iterator first,
    _Iterator last);

template<class V>
iterator insert(
    V&& value);

template<class V>
typename std::enable_if<!std::is_same<const_iterator,
    typename std::remove_reference<V>::type>::value,
    iterator>::type insert(
    const_iterator _Where,
    V&& value);

Parameters

_Iterator
The iterator type used for insertion.

V
The type of the value inserted into the map.

value
The value to be inserted.

_Where
The starting location to search for an insertion point.

first
The beginning of the range to insert.

last
The end of the range to insert.

Return Value

An iterator pointing to the insertion location.

Remarks

The first member function inserts the element value in the controlled sequence, then returns the iterator that designates the inserted element.

The second member function returns insert( value), using _Where as a starting place within the controlled sequence to search for the insertion point.

The third member function inserts the sequence of element values from the range [ first, last).

The last two member functions behave the same as the first two, except that value is used to construct the inserted value.

key_eq

Returns the stored equality comparison function object.

key_equal key_eq() const;

Return Value

The stored equality comparison function object.

load_factor

Computes and returns the current load factor of the container. The load factor is the number of elements in the container divided by the number of buckets.

float load_factor() const;

Return Value

The load factor for the container.

max_load_factor

Gets or sets the maximum load factor of the container. The maximum load factor is the largest number of elements than can be in any bucket before the container grows its internal table.

float max_load_factor() const;

void max_load_factor(float _Newmax);

Parameters

_Newmax

Return Value

The first member function returns the stored maximum load factor. The second member function does not return a value but throws an out_of_range exception if the supplied load factor is invalid..

max_size

Returns the maximum size of the concurrent container, determined by the allocator. This method is concurrency safe.

size_type max_size() const;

Return Value

The maximum number of elements that can be inserted into this concurrent container.

Remarks

This upper bound value may actually be higher than what the container can actually hold.

operator=

Assigns the contents of another concurrent_unordered_multimap object to this one. This method is not concurrency-safe.

concurrent_unordered_multimap& operator= (const concurrent_unordered_multimap& _Umap);

concurrent_unordered_multimap& operator= (concurrent_unordered_multimap&& _Umap);

Parameters

_Umap
The source concurrent_unordered_multimap object.

Return Value

A reference to this concurrent_unordered_multimap object.

Remarks

After erasing any existing elements in a concurrent unordered multimap, operator= either copies or moves the contents of _Umap into the concurrent unordered multimap.

rehash

Rebuilds the hash table.

void rehash(size_type _Buckets);

Parameters

_Buckets
The desired number of buckets.

Remarks

The member function alters the number of buckets to be at least _Buckets and rebuilds the hash table as needed. The number of buckets must be a power of 2. If not a power of 2, it will be rounded up to the next largest power of 2.

It throws an out_of_range exception if the number of buckets is invalid (either 0 or greater than the maximum number of buckets).

size

Returns the number of elements in this concurrent container. This method is concurrency safe.

size_type size() const;

Return Value

The number of items in the container.

Remarks

In the presence of concurrent inserts, the number of elements in the concurrent container may change immediately after calling this function, before the return value is even read.

void swap(concurrent_unordered_multimap& _Umap);

Parameters

_Umap
The concurrent_unordered_multimap object to swap with.

Return Value

The first two member functions return an iterator that designates the first element remaining beyond any elements removed, or concurrent_unordered_multimap::end() if no such element exists. The third member function returns the number of elements it removes.

Remarks

The first member function removes the element of the controlled sequence pointed to by _Where. The second member function removes the elements in the range [ _Begin, _End).

The third member function removes the elements in the range delimited by concurrent_unordered_multimap::equal_range(KVal).
