hash_multimap::crbegin

Returns a const iterator addressing the first element in a reversed hash_multimap.

const_reverse_iterator crbegin( ) const;

Return Value

A const reverse bidirectional iterator addressing the first element in a reversed hash_multimap Class or addressing what had been the last element in the unreversed hash_multimap.

Remarks

crbegin is used with a reversed hash_multimap just as hash_multimap::begin is used with a hash_multimap.

With the return value of crbegin, the hash_multimap object cannot be modified.

crbegin can be used to iterate through a hash_multimap backwards.

In Visual C++ .NET 2003, members of the <hash_map> and <hash_set> header files are no longer in the std namespace, but rather have been moved into the stdext namespace. See The stdext Namespace for more information.

Example

// hash_multimap_crbegin.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <hash_multimap>
#include <iostream>

int main( )
{
   using namespace std;
   using namespace stdext;
   hash_multimap <int, int> hm1;

   hash_multimap <int, int> :: const_reverse_iterator hm1_crIter;
   typedef pair <int, int> Int_Pair;

   hm1.insert ( Int_Pair ( 3, 30 ) );

   hm1_crIter = hm1.crbegin( );
   cout << "The first element of the reversed hash_multimap hm1 is "
        << hm1_crIter -> first << "." << endl;
}

The first element of the reversed hash_multimap hm1 is 3.
