Name
RWTPtrSet<T,C> - Rogue Wave library class
Synopsis
#include <rw/tpset.h>
RWTPtrSet<T,C> s;
Standard C++ Library Dependent!RWTPtrSet requires the Standard C++ Library.
Description
This class maintains a pointer-based collection of values, which are
ordered according to a comparison object of type C. Class T is the type
pointed to by the items in the collection. C must induce a total ordering
on elements of type T via a public member
bool operator()(const T& x, const T& y)
which returns true if x should precede y within the collection. The
structure less<T> from the C++-standard header file <functional> is an
example. Note that items in the collection will be dereferenced before
being compared. RWTPtrSet<T,C> will not accept an item that compares
equal to an item already in the collection. (RWTPtrMultiSet<T,C> may
contain multiple items that compare equal to each other.) Equality is
based on the comparison object and not on the == operator. Given a
comparison object comp, items a and b are equal if
!comp(a,b) && !comp(b,a).
Persistence
Isomorphic.
Examples
In this example, a pointer-based set of RWCStrings is exercised.

Related Classes
Class RWTPtrMultiSet<T,C> offers the same interface to a pointer-based
collection that accepts multiple items that compare equal to each other.
RWTPtrMap<K,T,C> is a pointer-based collection of key-value pairs. Class
set<T*,rw_deref_compare<C,T>,allocator> is the C++-standard collection
that serves as the underlying implementation for RWTPtrSet<T,C>.

RWTPtrSet(3C++) RWTPtrSet(3C++)
RWTPtrSet<T,C>(const container_type& s);
Creates a pointer based set by copying all elements from s.
RWTPtrSet<T,C>(T* const* first,T* const* last,const container_comp& comp = container_comp());
Constructs a set by copying elements from the array of T*s pointed to by
first, up to, but not including, the element pointed to by last.
Public Member Operators
RWTPtrSet<T,C>&
operator=(const container_type& s);
RWTPtrSet<T,C>&
operator=(const RWTPtrSet<T,C>& s);
Clears all elements of self and replaces them by copying all elements of
s.
bool
operator<(const RWTPtrSet<T,C>& s);
Returns true if self compares lexicographically less than s, otherwise
returns false. Items in each collection are dereferenced before being
compared. Assumes that type T has well-defined less-than semantics.
bool
operator==(const RWTPtrSet<T,C>& s);
Returns true if self compares equal to s, otherwise returns false. Two
collections are equal if both have the same number of entries, and
iterating through both collections produces, in turn, individual elements
that compare equal to each other. Elements are dereferenced before being
compared.
Public Member Functions
void
apply(void (*fn)(const T*,void*), void* d) const;
Applies the user-defined function pointed to by fn to every item in the
collection. This function must have prototype:
void yourfun(const T* a, void* d);
Client data may be passed through parameter d.

iterator
begin();
const_iterator
begin() const;
Returns an iterator positioned at the first element of self.
void
clear();
Clears the collection by removing all items from self.
void
clearAndDestroy();
Removes all items from the collection and uses operator delete to destroy
the objects pointed to by those items.
bool
contains(const T* a) const;
Returns true if there exists an element t in self that compares equal
with *a, otherwise returns false.
bool
contains(bool (*fn)(const T*,void*), void* d) const;
Returns true if there exists an element t in self such that the
expression ((*fn)(t,d)) is true, otherwise returns false. fn points to a
user-defined tester function which must have prototype:
bool yourTester(const T* a, void* d);
Client data may be passed through parameter d.
void
difference(const RWTPtrSet<T,C>& s);
Sets self to the set-theoretic difference given by (self - s). Elements
from each set are dereferenced before being compared.

RWvostream&
operator<<(RWvostream& strm, const RWTPtrSet<T,C>& coll);
RWFile&
operator<<(RWFile& strm, const RWTPtrSet<T,C>& coll);
Saves the collection coll onto the output stream strm, or a reference to
it if it has already been saved.
RWvistream&
operator>>(RWvistream& strm, RWTPtrSet<T,C>& coll);
RWFile&
operator>>(RWFile& strm, RWTPtrSet<T,C>& coll);
Restores the contents of the collection coll from the input stream strm.
RWvistream&
operator>>(RWvistream& strm, RWTPtrSet<T,C>*& p);
RWFile&
operator>>(RWFile& strm, RWTPtrSet<T,C>*& p);
Looks at the next object on the input stream strm and either creates a
new collection off the heap and sets p to point to it, or sets p to point
to a previously read instance. If a collection is created off the heap,
then you are responsible for deleting it.
