ordered_unique
and ordered_non_unique
These index specifiers allow
for insertion of ordered indices without and with
allowance of duplicate elements, respectively. The syntax of ordered_unique
and ordered_non_unique
coincide, thus we describe them in a grouped manner.
ordered_unique
and ordered_non_unique
can be instantiated in
two different forms, according to whether a tag list for the index is provided or not:
template< typename KeyFromValue, typename Compare=std::less<KeyFromValue::result_type> > struct (ordered_unique | ordered_non_unique); template< typename TagList, typename KeyFromValue, typename Compare=std::less<KeyFromValue::result_type> > struct (ordered_unique | ordered_non_unique);
If provided, TagList
must be an instantiation of the class template
tag
.
The template arguments are used by the corresponding index implementation,
refer to the ordered indices reference section for further
explanations on their acceptable type values.
An ordered index provides a set-like interface to the underlying heap of
elements contained in a multi_index_container
. An ordered index is
particularized according to a given
Key Extractor
that retrieves keys from elements of multi_index_container
and a comparison
predicate.
There are two variants of ordered indices: unique, which do not allow duplicate elements (with respect to its associated comparison predicate) and non-unique, which accept those duplicates. The interface of these two variants is the same, so they are documented together, with minor differences explicitly stated when they exist.
Except where noted or if the corresponding interface does not exist, ordered indices (both unique and non-unique) satisfy the C++ requirements for associative containers at [associative.reqmts] (supporting unique and equivalent keys, respectively.) Accordingly, validity of iterators and references to elements is preserved. We only provide descriptions of those types and operations that do not exactly conform to or are not mandated by the standard requirements.

Here and in the descriptions of operations of ordered indices, we adopt the scheme outlined in the complexity signature section. The complexity signature of ordered indices is:
c(n)=n*log(n)
,i(n)=log(n)
,h(n)=1
(constant) if the hint element
is immediately after the point of insertion, h(n)=log(n)
otherwise,d(n)=1
(amortized constant),r(n)=1
(constant) if the element position does not
change, r(n)=log(n)
otherwise,m(n)=1
(constant) if the element position does not
change, m(n)=log(n)
otherwise.Ordered indices are instantiated internally to multi_index_container
and
specified by means of indexed_by
with index specifiers ordered_unique
and ordered_non_unique
. Instantiations are dependent on the
following types:
Value
from multi_index_container
,Allocator
from multi_index_container
,TagList
from the index specifier (if provided, otherwise tag<>
is assumed),KeyFromValue
from the index specifier,Compare
from the index specifier.TagList
must be an instantiation of
tag
. The type KeyFromValue
,
which determines the mechanism for extracting a key from Value
,
must be a model of
Key Extractor
from Value
. Compare
is a
CopyConstructible
binary predicate inducing a strict weak order
on elements of KeyFromValue::result_type
.
As explained in the index concepts section, indices do not have public constructors or destructors. Assignment, on the other hand, is provided.

Apart from standard key_comp
and value_comp
,
ordered indices have a member function for retrieving the internal key extractor
used.
key_from_value key_extractor()const;
Returns a copy of thekey_from_value
object used to construct the index.
Complexity: Constant.
Ordered indices provide the full lookup functionality required by
[associative.reqmts], namely find
,
count
, lower_bound
, upper_bound
and equal_range
. Additionally, these member functions are
templatized to allow for non-standard arguments, so extending
the types of search operations allowed. The kind of arguments permissible
when invoking the lookup member functions is defined by the following
concept.
Consider a binary predicate Compare
inducing a strict
weak order over values of type Key
. A pair of types (CompatibleKey
,
CompatibleCompare
) is said to be a compatible extension
of Compare
if
CompatibleCompare
is a binary predicate over (Key
,
CompatibleKey
),CompatibleCompare
is a binary predicate over (CompatibleKey
,
Key
),c_comp(ck,k1)
then !c_comp(k1,ck)
,!c_comp(ck,k1)
and !comp(k1,k2)
then
!c_comp(ck,k2)

, k2
of type
Key
.
Additionally, a type CompatibleKey
is said to be a
compatible key of Compare
if (CompatibleKey
,
Compare
) is a compatible extension of Compare
.
This implies that Compare
, as well as being a strict
weak ordering, accepts arguments of type CompatibleKey
,
which usually means it has several overloads of operator()
.
In the context of a compatible extension or a compatible key, the expressions "equivalent", "less than" and "greater than" take on their obvious interpretations.

The member function range
is not defined for sorted associative
containers, but ordered indices provide it as a convenient utility. A range
or interval is defined by two conditions for the lower and upper bounds, which
are modeled after the following concepts.
Consider a binary predicate Compare
inducing a strict
weak order over values of type Key
. A type LowerBounder
is said to be
a lower bounder of Compare
if
LowerBounder
is a predicate over Key
,lower(k1)
and !comp(k2,k1)
then
lower(k2)
,lower
of type LowerBounder
,
comp
of type Compare
, and k1
,
k2
of type Key
. Similarly, an upper bounder
is a type UpperBounder
such that
UpperBounder
is a predcate over Key
,upper(k1)
and !comp(k1,k2)
then
upper(k2)
,upper
of type UpperBounder
,
comp
of type Compare
, and k1
,
k2
of type Key
.
template<typename LowerBounder,typename UpperBounder>
std::pair<iterator,iterator> range(
LowerBounder lower,UpperBounder upper)const;
Requires:LowerBounder
andUpperBounder
are a lower and upper bounder ofkey_compare
, respectively.
Effects: Returns a pair of iterators pointing to the beginning and one past the end of the subsequence of elements satisfyinglower
andupper
simultaneously. If no such elements exist, the iterators both point to the first element satisfyinglower
, or else are equal toend()
if this latter element does not exist.
Complexity:O(log(n))
.
Variants: In place oflower
orupper
(or both), the singular valueboost::multi_index::unbounded
can be provided. This acts as a predicate which all values of typekey_type
satisfy.
Indices cannot be serialized on their own, but only as part of the
multi_index_container
into which they are embedded. In describing
the additional preconditions and guarantees associated to ordered indices
with respect to serialization of their embedding containers, we
use the concepts defined in the multi_index_container
serialization section.
