reverse_iterator::pointer

A type that provides a pointer to an element addressed by a reverse_iterator.

typedef typename iterator_traits<RandomIterator>::pointer pointer;

Remarks

The type is a synonym for the iterator trait typename iterator_traits<RandomIterator>::pointer.

Example

// reverse_iterator_pointer.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <iterator>
#include <algorithm>
#include <vector>
#include <utility>
#include <iostream>

int main( )
{
   using namespace std;

   typedef vector<pair<int,int> > pVector;
   pVector vec;
   vec.push_back( pVector::value_type( 1,2 ) );
   vec.push_back( pVector::value_type( 3,4 ) );
   vec.push_back( pVector::value_type( 5,6 ) );

   pVector::iterator pvIter;
   cout << "The vector vec of integer pairs is:\n" << "( ";
   for ( pvIter = vec.begin ( ) ; pvIter != vec.end ( ); pvIter++)
      cout << "( " << pvIter -> first << ", " << pvIter -> second << ") ";
   cout << ")" << endl;

   pVector::reverse_iterator rpvIter;
   cout << "\nThe vector vec reversed is:\n" << "( ";
   for ( rpvIter = vec.rbegin( ) ; rpvIter != vec.rend( ); rpvIter++)
      cout << "( " << rpvIter -> first << ", " << rpvIter -> second << ") ";
   cout << ")" << endl;

   pVector::iterator pos = vec.begin ( );
   pos++;
   cout << "\nThe iterator pos points to:\n"
        << "( " << pos -> first << ", "
        << pos -> second << " )" << endl;

   pVector::reverse_iterator rpos (pos);
   cout << "\nThe iterator rpos points to:\n"
        << "( " << rpos -> first << ", "
        << rpos -> second << " )" << endl;
}

The vector vec of integer pairs is:
( ( 1, 2) ( 3, 4) ( 5, 6) )

The vector vec reversed is:
( ( 5, 6) ( 3, 4) ( 1, 2) )

The iterator pos points to:
( 3, 4 )

The iterator rpos points to:
( 1, 2 )
