Return mapped‐value access for an equivalent lookup key.

Synopsis

Declared in <bslstl_map.h>

template<class LOOKUP_KEY>
add_lvalue_reference<VALUE>::type
operator[](LOOKUP_KEY&& key)
requires BloombergLP::bslmf::IsTransparentPredicate<COMPARATOR,
                                                   LOOKUP_KEY>::value;

Description

Return a reference providing modifiable access to the mapped‐value associated with a key that is equivalent with the specified key; if this map does not already contain a value_type object having an equivalent key, first insert a new value_type object having the move‐inserted key and a default‐constructed VALUE object, and return a reference to the newly mapped (default) value. This method requires that the (template parameter) type KEY be move‐insertable into this map and the (template parameter) type VALUE be default‐insertable into this map (see {Requirements on KEY and VALUE}).

Return Value

modifiable reference to the mapped value
