The template class describes an object that controls a varying-length sequence of elements that has last-in first-out access. You use the container adapter stack to manage an underlying container as a push-down stack.

In the description below, GValue is the same as Value unless the latter is a ref type, in which case it is Value^. Similarly, GContainer is the same as Container unless the latter is a ref type, in which case it is Container^.

Syntax

template<typename Value,  
    typename Container>  
    ref class stack  
        :   public  
        System::ICloneable,  
        Microsoft::VisualC::StlClr::IStack<GValue, GContainer>  
    { ..... };

Parameters

Value
The type of an element in the controlled sequence.

Container
The type of the underlying container.

Members

Type Definition	Description
stack::const_reference (STL/CLR)	The type of a constant reference to an element.
stack::container_type (STL/CLR)	The type of the underlying container.
stack::difference_type (STL/CLR)	The type of a signed distance between two elements.
stack::generic_container (STL/CLR)	The type of the generic interface for the container adapter.
stack::generic_value (STL/CLR)	The type of an element for the generic interface for the container adapter.
stack::reference (STL/CLR)	The type of a reference to an element.
stack::size_type (STL/CLR)	The type of a signed distance between two elements.
stack::value_type (STL/CLR)	The type of an element.

Member Function	Description
stack::assign (STL/CLR)	Replaces all elements.
stack::empty (STL/CLR)	Tests whether no elements are present.
stack::get_container (STL/CLR)	Accesses the underlying container.
stack::pop (STL/CLR)	Removes the last element.
stack::push (STL/CLR)	Adds a new last element.
stack::size (STL/CLR)	Counts the number of elements.
stack::stack (STL/CLR)	Constructs a container object.
stack::top (STL/CLR)	Accesses the last element.
stack::to_array (STL/CLR)	Copies the controlled sequence to a new array.

Property	Description
stack::top_item (STL/CLR)	Accesses the last element.

Operator	Description
stack::operator= (STL/CLR)	Replaces the controlled sequence.
operator!= (stack) (STL/CLR)	Determines if a `stack` object is not equal to another `stack` object.
operator< (stack) (STL/CLR)	Determines if a `stack` object is less than another `stack` object.
operator<= (stack) (STL/CLR)	Determines if a `stack` object is less than or equal to another `stack` object.
operator== (stack) (STL/CLR)	Determines if a `stack` object is equal to another `stack` object.
operator> (stack) (STL/CLR)	Determines if a `stack` object is greater than another `stack` object.
operator>= (stack) (STL/CLR)	Determines if a `stack` object is greater than or equal to another `stack` object.

Interfaces

Interface	Description
ICloneable	Duplicate an object.
IStack<Value, Container>	Maintain generic container adapter.

Remarks

The object allocates and frees storage for the sequence it controls through an underlying container, of type Container, that stores Value elements and grows on demand. The object restricts access to pushing and popping just the last element, implementing a last-in first-out queue (also known as a LIFO queue, or stack).
