Create an empty hash‐table. Optionally specify a `basicAllocator` used to supply memory. If `basicAllocator` is not supplied, a default‐constructed object of the (template parameter) type `ALLOCATOR` is used. If the type `ALLOCATOR` is `bsl::allocator` and `basicAllocator` is not supplied, the currently installed default allocator is used to supply memory. Use 1.0 for the `maxLoadFactor`. Use a default constructed object of the (template parameter) type `HASHER` and a default constructed object of the (template parameter) type `COMPARATOR` to organize elements in the table. No memory is allocated unless the `HASHER` or `COMPARATOR` types allocate memory in their default constructor. Note that a `bslma::Allocator *` can be supplied for `basicAllocator` if the type `ALLOCATOR` is `bsl::allocator` (the default).
