hash_set::upper_bound
Returns an iterator to the first element in a hash_set that with a key that is greater than a specified key.
const_iterator upper_bound(
const Key& _Key
) const;
iterator upper_bound(
const Key& _Key
);
Parameters
- _Key
The argument key to be compared with the sort key of an element from the hash_set being searched.
Return Value
An iterator or const_iterator that addresses the location of an element in a hash_set that with a key that is equal to or greater than the argument key, or that addresses the location succeeding the last element in the hash_set if no match is found for the key.
Remarks
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_set_upper_bound.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#define _DEFINE_DEPRECATED_HASH_CLASSES 0
#include <hash_set>
#include <iostream>
int main( )
{
using namespace std;
using namespace stdext;
hash_set <int> hs1;
hash_set <int> :: const_iterator hs1_AcIter, hs1_RcIter;
hs1.insert( 10 );
hs1.insert( 20 );
hs1.insert( 30 );
hs1_RcIter = hs1.upper_bound( 20 );
cout << "The first element of hash_set hs1 with a key greater "
<< "than 20 is: " << *hs1_RcIter << "." << endl;
hs1_RcIter = hs1.upper_bound( 30 );
// If no match is found for the key, end( ) is returned
if ( hs1_RcIter == hs1.end( ) )
cout << "The hash_set hs1 doesn't have an element "
<< "with a key greater than 30." << endl;
else
cout << "The element of hash_set hs1 with a key > 40 is: "
<< *hs1_RcIter << "." << endl;
// An element at a specific location in the hash_set can be found
// by using a dereferenced iterator addressing the location
hs1_AcIter = hs1.begin( );
hs1_RcIter = hs1.upper_bound( *hs1_AcIter );
cout << "The first element of hs1 with a key greater than "
<< endl << "that of the initial element of hs1 is: "
<< *hs1_RcIter << "." << endl;
}
The first element of hash_set hs1 with a key greater than 20 is: 30. The hash_set hs1 doesn't have an element with a key greater than 30. The first element of hs1 with a key greater than that of the initial element of hs1 is: 20.
