set::key_comp and set::value_comp

Illustrates how to use the set::key_comp and set::value_comp Standard Template Library (STL) functions in Visual C++.

template<class _K, class _Pr, class _A>
   class set 
   {
      public:
      // Function 1:
      key_compare key_comp( ) const;
      // Function 2:
      value_compare value_comp( ) const;
   }

Remarks

Observação

The class/parameter names in the prototype do not match the version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.

The key_comp function returns the stored function object that determines the order of elements in the controlled sequence. The value_comp function returns the same function that the key_comp function returns.

Example

// SetComp.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
//
//      Illustrates how to use the key_comp function to obtain a
//      function pointer that is the stored function object that
//      determines the order of elements in the controlled sequence.
//      It also illustrates how to use the value_comp function to
//      obtain a function pointer that is the stored function object
//      that determines the order of the elements in the controlled
//      sequence (same as key_comp result).
//
// Functions:
//
//    key_comp     Returns a function pointer to the function that
//                 determines the order of elements in the controlled
//                 sequence.
//    value_comp   Returns a function pointer to the function that
//                 determines the order of elements in the controlled
//                 sequence (same as key_comp).
