vector::operator<
Illustrates how to use the vector::operator< Standard Template Library (STL) function in Visual C++.
template<class _TYPE, class _A> inline
bool operator<(
const vector<_TYPE, _A>& _X,
const vector<_TYPE, _A>& _Y
);
Remarks
참고
The class/parameter names in the prototype do not match the version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.
The sample declares an empty vector of IDs, a user-defined type. It initializes and adds four IDs to the vector in random order. It sorts them using the operator< defined for ID and generates the newly sorted vector. (Note that it sorts in order of Score, not Name.)
Example
// Opless.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
// Illustrates the defining the < operator to sort vectors
//
// Functions:
//
// operator< - Vector comparison operator.
//
// vector::begin - Returns an iterator to start traversal of the vector.
//
// vector::end - Returns an iterator for the last element of the vector.
//
// vector::iterator - Traverses the vector.
//
// vector::push_back - Appends (inserts) an element to the end of a
// vector, allocating memory for it if necessary.
//
// sort algorithm - Sorts the vector.
