Overview

template< class Key, class Value, /* ... */ >
class multimap;

The std::multimap is a container that stores key-value pairs in a specified order. It works almost as std::map, the only difference is that the keys can repeat themselves. If the keys of both elements are the same, they are ordered by their values.

Technical details

Technical definition of a multimap

Multimap is an associative container that contains a sorted list of key-value pairs, while permitting multiple entries with the same key.

Sorting is done according to the comparison function Compare, applied to the keys. Search, insertion, and removal operations have logarithmic complexity.

The order of the key-value pairs whose keys compare equivalent is the order of insertion and does not change. (since C++11)

Everywhere the standard library uses the Compare requirements, equivalence is determined by using the equivalence relation as described on Compare.

In imprecise terms, two objects a and b are considered equivalent if neither compares less than the other: !comp(a, b) && !comp(b, a).

Note that these aliases aren't guaranteed to be found anywhere in the standard library. They are defined solely for presentation purposes of these deduction guides and weren't present in the standard library at the point of writing of this document.

Overload resolution

In order for any of the deduction guides to participate in overload resolution, the folllowing requirements must be met:

zanotuj

The extent to which the library determines that a type does not satisfy LegacyInputIterator is unspecified, except that as a minimum:

  • Integral types do not qualify as input iterators.

Likewise, the extent to which it determines that a type does not satisfy Allocator is unspecified, except that as a minimum:
