What is multimap::emplace() and move()?

Emplacing is easier to understand with vectors my_vector. Emplace_back(1, 2, 3) is basically an efficient shortcut for my_vector. Push_back(some_type(1, 2, 3)) Instead of copy-constructing the object in-place any constructor can now be used for in-place-construction, thus saving the creation, copy (or move) and destruction of a temporary object.

Emplacing is powered by perfect forwarding.

Std::move(expression) is basically a cast to an xvalue, which effectively allows the entire expression to be bound to an rvalue reference. You typically do this to enable resource pilfering from named objects that you are no longer interested in because they are going to be destroyed soon, anyway.

I belive, that instead my_vector. Emplace(1, 2, 3) should be my_vector. Emplace_back(1, 2, 3) – Ashot Martirosyan Mar 29 '11 at 12:30 4 This is a better answer than the accepted answer, which at the very least is inaccurate and arguably wrong.

Emplace(1, "a"), i.e. Emplace forwards the arguments. It seems to me that their example would compile as well with insert instead of emplace.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
