replace_copy_if (STL Samples)
Illustrates how to use the replace_copy_if Standard Template Library (STL) function in Visual C++.

Remarks
Notes
The class/parameter names in the prototype do not match the version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.
The replace_copy_if algorithm copies all elements from the range [First, Last) to a same-size range starting at result, replacing all occurrences that cause the predicate to return true with New_Value in the resulting sequence. It returns an iterator positioned immediately after the last new element in the resulting sequence.
Example
// replace_copy_if.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
// Illustrates how to use the replace_copy_if function.
//
// Functions:
// replace_copy_if - Copy the elements of a sequence to another
// same-size sequence replacing any elements
// that satisfies a predicate, with another value.

//Define an iterator for template class vector of integer

Numbers[4] = 12 ;
Numbers[5] = 7 ;
Numbers[6] = 9 ;
Numbers[7] = 10 ;
start = Numbers.begin() ; // location of first
// element of Numbers
end = Numbers.end() ; // one past the location
// last element of Numbers
resultIt = Result.begin() ; // location of first
// element of Result
// print content of Numbers
cout << "Numbers { " ;
for(it = start; it != end; it++)
cout << *it << " " ;
cout << " }\n" << endl ;
// copy all elements from Numbers to Result
// replacing any item that >= 10 with 30
last = replace_copy_if(start, end, resultIt,
bind2nd(greater_equal<int>(), 10), 30) ;
//print number of elements copied to Result
cout << "Total number of elements copied to Result = "
<< last - resultIt << endl ;
start = Result.begin() ; // location of first
// element of Result
end = Result.end() ; // one past the location
// last element of Result
// print content of Result
cout << "Result { " ;
for(it = start; it != end; it++)
cout << *it << " " ;
cout << " }\n" << endl ;
}
Output
Numbers { 10 20 10 15 12 7 9 10 }
Total number of elements copied to Result = 8
Result { 30 30 30 30 30 7 9 30 }
