Template Class forward_iterator
Defined in File forward_iterator.hpp
Class Documentation
-
template<typename ElementType, typename ImplementationType, typename Friend>
class forward_iterator This class is used so we can provide iterators for various container classes without exposing any implementation details about what kind of STL container we are using inside of our container class. This allows us to guarantee ABI stability, even if we decide to change what STL container we use inside of our implementation.
This class is designed to offer only the most basic features of a forward iterator.
Public Functions
-
forward_iterator &operator++()
Pre-increment operator: ++it
Note
This is more efficient than the post-increment operator.
- Returns:
a reference to the iterator that was operated on
-
forward_iterator operator++(int)
Post-increment operator: it++
- Returns:
a copy of the iterator before it was incremented
-
bool operator==(const forward_iterator &other) const
Equality comparison operator.
-
bool operator!=(const forward_iterator &other) const
Inequality comparison operator.
-
operator forward_iterator<const Element, Implementation, Friend>() const
