std:: swap (std::map)

From cppreference.com

Defined in header <map>
template < class Key, class T, class Compare, class Alloc >

void swap ( std:: map < Key, T, Compare, Alloc > & lhs,

std:: map < Key, T, Compare, Alloc > & rhs ) ;
(until C++17)
template < class Key, class T, class Compare, class Alloc >

void swap ( std:: map < Key, T, Compare, Alloc > & lhs,
std:: map < Key, T, Compare, Alloc > & rhs )

noexcept ( /* see below */ ) ;
(since C++17)

Specializes the std::swap algorithm for std::map . Swaps the contents of lhs and rhs . Calls lhs. swap ( rhs ) .

Parameters

lhs, rhs - containers whose contents to swap

Return value

(none)

Complexity

Constant.

Exceptions

noexcept specification:
noexcept ( noexcept ( lhs. swap ( rhs ) ) )
(since C++17)

Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <map>
 
int main()
{
    std::map<int, char> alice{{1, 'a'}, {2, 'b'}, {3, 'c'}};
    std::map<int, char> bob{{7, 'Z'}, {8, 'Y'}, {9, 'X'}, {10, 'W'}};
 
    auto print = [](std::pair<const int, char>& n)
    {
        std::cout << ' ' << n.first << ':' << n.second;
    };
 
    // Print state before swap
    std::cout << "Alice:";
    std::for_each(alice.begin(), alice.end(), print);
    std::cout << "\nBobby:";
    std::for_each(bob.begin(), bob.end(), print);
    std::cout << '\n';
 
    std::cout << "-- SWAP\n";
    std::swap(alice, bob);
 
    // Print state after swap
    std::cout << "Alice:";
    std::for_each(alice.begin(), alice.end(), print);
    std::cout << "\nBobby:";
    std::for_each(bob.begin(), bob.end(), print);
    std::cout << '\n';
}

Output:

Alice: 1:a 2:b 3:c
Bobby: 7:Z 8:Y 9:X 10:W
-- SWAP
Alice: 7:Z 8:Y 9:X 10:W
Bobby: 1:a 2:b 3:c
