multimap::size (STL/CLR)

Counts the number of elements.

    size_type size();

Remarks

The member function returns the length of the controlled sequence. You use it to determine the number of elements currently in the controlled sequence. If all you care about is whether the sequence has nonzero size, see multimap::empty (STL/CLR)().

Example

// cliext_multimap_size.cpp 
// compile with: /clr 
#include <cliext/map> 
 
typedef cliext::multimap<wchar_t, int> Mymultimap; 
int main() 
    { 
    Mymultimap c1; 
    c1.insert(Mymultimap::make_value(L'a', 1)); 
    c1.insert(Mymultimap::make_value(L'b', 2)); 
    c1.insert(Mymultimap::make_value(L'c', 3)); 
 
// display contents " [a 1] [b 2] [c 3]" 
    for each (Mymultimap::value_type elem in c1) 
        System::Console::Write(" [{0} {1}]", elem->first, elem->second); 
    System::Console::WriteLine(); 
 
// clear the container and reinspect 
    c1.clear(); 
    System::Console::WriteLine("size() = {0} after clearing", c1.size()); 
 
// add elements and clear again 
    c1.insert(Mymultimap::make_value(L'd', 4)); 
    c1.insert(Mymultimap::make_value(L'e', 5)); 
    System::Console::WriteLine("size() = {0} after adding 2", c1.size()); 
    return (0); 
    } 
 

[a 1] [b 2] [c 3] size() = 0 after clearing size() = 2 after adding 2
