back_inserter

Creates an iterator that can insert elements at the back of a specified container.

template<class Container>
   back_insert_iterator<Container> back_inserter(
      Container& _Cont
   );

Parameters

  • _Cont
    The container into which the back insertion is to be executed.

Return Value

A back_insert_iterator associated with the container object _Cont.

Remarks

Within the Standard Template Library, the argument must refer to one of the three sequence containers that have the member function push_back: deque Class, list Class, or vector Class.

Example

// iterator_back_inserter.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <iterator>
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>

int main( )
{
   using namespace std;
   int i;

   vector<int> vec;
   for ( i = 0 ; i < 3 ; ++i )  
   {
      vec.push_back ( i );
   }
   
   vector <int>::iterator vIter;
   cout << "The initial vector vec is: ( ";
   for ( vIter = vec.begin ( ) ; vIter != vec.end ( ); vIter++)
      cout << *vIter << " ";
   cout << ")." << endl;

   // Insertions can be done with template function
   back_insert_iterator<vector<int> > backiter ( vec );
   *backiter = 30;
   backiter++;
   *backiter = 40;

   // Alternatively, insertions can be done with the
   // back_insert_iterator member function
   back_inserter ( vec ) = 500;
   back_inserter ( vec ) = 600;

   cout << "After the insertions, the vector vec is: ( ";
   for ( vIter = vec.begin ( ) ; vIter != vec.end ( ); vIter++ )
      cout << *vIter << " ";
   cout << ")." << endl;
}
The initial vector vec is: ( 0 1 2 ).
After the insertions, the vector vec is: ( 0 1 2 30 40 500 600 ).
