bsl::priority_queue

Highest-priority-first priority queue adapter over a container of VALUE elements.

Synopsis

Declared in <bslstl_priorityqueue.h>

template<
    class VALUE,
    class CONTAINER = vector<VALUE>,
    class COMPARATOR = std::less<CONTAINER::value_type>>
class priority_queue;

Description

This class is a value-semantic class template, adapting a container of the (template parameter) type CONTAINER, that holds elements of the (template parameter) type VALUE, to provide a highest-priority-first priority queue data structure, where the priorities of elements are compared by a comparator of the template parameter type, COMPARATOR. The container object held by a priority_queue class object is referenced as c in the following documentation.

Member Functions

NameDescription

operator= Assignment operators
emplace Emplace a newly constructed element into this priority queue.
empty Return true if this priority_queue object contains no elements, and false otherwise. In effect, performs return c.empty();.
pop Remove the highest-priority element from this priority queue.
push push overloads
push_range Insert the elements of the specified range into this priority queue.
size Return the number of elements in this priority_queue object. In effect, performs return c.size().
swap Efficiently exchange the value of this object with other.
top Return a reference to the highest-priority element.
