mem_fun_ref Function

Helper template functions used to construct function object adaptors for member functions when initialized by using reference arguments.

template<class Result, class Type>
   mem_fun_ref_t<Result, Type> mem_fun_ref(
      Result (Type::*_Pm )( ) 
   );
template<class Result, class Type, class Arg>
   mem_fun1_ref_t<Result, Type, Arg> 
      mem_fun_ref(
         Result (Type::*_Pm )( Arg ) 
      );
template<class Result, class Type>
   const_mem_fun_ref_t<Result, Type> 
      mem_fun_ref(
         Result Type::*_Pm )( ) const 
      );
template<class Result, class Type, class Arg>
   const_mem_fun1_ref_t<Result, Type, Arg> 
      mem_fun_ref(
         Result ( _Type::*_Pm )( Arg ) const 
      );

Parameters

  • _Pm
    A pointer to the member function of class Type to be converted to a function object.

Return Value

A const or non_const function object of typemem_fun_ref_t or mem_fun1_ref_t.

Example

// compile with: /EHsc
#include <vector>
#include <functional>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

   for ( i = 0; i < 13; i++ ) v1 [ i ] = NumVals ( i+1 );
   for ( k = 0; k < 13; k++ ) v2 [ k ] = NumVals ( k+1 );

   cout << "The original values stored in v1 are: " ;
   for_each( v1.begin( ), v1.end( ), 
   mem_fun_ref ( &NumVals::display ) );
   cout << endl;

   // Use of mem_fun_ref calling member function through a reference
   // remove the primes in the vector using isPrime ( )
   v1_Iter = remove_if ( v1.begin( ),  v1.end( ), 
      mem_fun_ref ( &NumVals::isPrime ) );   
   cout << "With the primes removed, the remaining values in v1 are: " ;
   for_each( v1.begin( ), v1_Iter, 
   mem_fun_ref ( &NumVals::display ) );
   cout << endl;

   cout << "The original values stored in v2 are: " ;
   for_each( v2.begin( ), v2.end( ), 
   mem_fun_ref ( &NumVals::display ) );
   cout << endl;

   // Use of mem_fun_ref calling member function through a reference
   // remove the even numbers in the vector v2 using isEven ( )
   v2_Iter = remove_if ( v2.begin( ),  v2.end( ), 
      mem_fun_ref ( &NumVals::isEven ) );   
   cout << "With the even numbers removed, the remaining values are: " ;
   for_each( v2.begin( ),  v2_Iter, 
   mem_fun_ref ( &NumVals::display ) );
   cout << endl;
}
The original values stored in v1 are: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 
With the primes removed, the remaining values in v1 are: 4 6 8 9 10 12 
The original values stored in v2 are: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 
With the even numbers removed, the remaining values are: 1 3 5 7 9 11 13
