hash_multiset::rbegin
Note
This API is obsolete. The alternative is unordered_multiset Class.
Returns an iterator addressing the first element in a reversed hash_multiset.
const_reverse_iterator rbegin( ) const;
reverse_iterator rbegin( );
Return Value
A reverse bidirectional iterator addressing the first element in a reversed hash_multiset or addressing what had been the last element in the unreversed hash_multiset.
Remarks
rbegin is used with a reversed hash_multiset just as begin is used with a hash_multiset.
If the return value of rbegin is assigned to a const_reverse_iterator, then the hash_multiset object cannot be modified. If the return value of rbegin is assigned to a reverse_iterator, then the hash_multiset object can be modified.
rbegin can be used to iterate through a hash_multiset backwards.
In Visual C++ .NET 2003, members of the <hash_map> and <hash_set> header files are no longer in the std namespace, but rather have been moved into the stdext namespace. See The stdext Namespace for more information.
Example
// hash_multiset_rbegin.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <hash_set>
#include <iostream>
int main( )
{
using namespace std;
using namespace stdext;
hash_multiset <int> hms1;
hash_multiset <int>::iterator hms1_Iter;
hash_multiset <int>::reverse_iterator hms1_rIter;
hms1.insert( 10 );
hms1.insert( 20 );
hms1.insert( 30 );
hms1_rIter = hms1.rbegin( );
cout << "The first element in the reversed hash_multiset is "
<< *hms1_rIter << "." << endl;
// begin can be used to start an iteration
// throught a hash_multiset in a forward order
cout << "The hash_multiset is: ";
for ( hms1_Iter = hms1.begin( ) ; hms1_Iter != hms1.end( );
hms1_Iter++ )
cout << *hms1_Iter << " ";
cout << endl;
// rbegin can be used to start an iteration
// throught a hash_multiset in a reverse order
cout << "The reversed hash_multiset is: ";
for ( hms1_rIter = hms1.rbegin( ) ; hms1_rIter != hms1.rend( );
hms1_rIter++ )
cout << *hms1_rIter << " ";
cout << endl;
// A hash_multiset element can be erased by dereferencing to its key
hms1_rIter = hms1.rbegin( );
hms1.erase ( *hms1_rIter );
hms1_rIter = hms1.rbegin( );
cout << "After the erasure, the first element "
<< "in the reversed hash_multiset is "<< *hms1_rIter << "."
<< endl;
}
The first element in the reversed hash_multiset is 30. The hash_multiset is: 10 20 30 The reversed hash_multiset is: 30 20 10 After the erasure, the first element in the reversed hash_multiset is 20.
