set::max_size (STL Samples)
Illustrates how to use the set::max_size Standard Template Library (STL) function in Visual C++.
template<class _K, class _Pr, class _A>
class set
{
public:
// Function 1:
size_type max_size() const;
}
Remarks
Hinweis
The class/parameter names in the prototype do not match the version in the header file. Some have been modified to improve readability.
The max_size function is used to determine the maximum number of elements the controlled sequence can contain.
Example
// SetMax_size.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
//
// Illustrates how to use the max_size function to determine how
// many elements the controlled sequence can contain.
//
// Functions:
//
// max_size Returns the maximum number of elements the controlled
// sequence can contain.

Sample Output
The following output is for x86.
s1.max_size() returned 1073741823
s1.size() returned 1000
