Addresses UK 239 [CD1]

It is not possible to take a move-only key out of an unordered container, such as (multi)set or (multi)map, or the new unordered containers.

Add below a.erase(q), a.extract(q), with the following notation:

a.extract(q)>, Return type pair<key, iterator> Extracts the element pointed to by q and erases it from the set. Returns a pair containing the value pointed to by q and an iterator pointing to the element immediately following q prior to the element being erased. If no such element exists,returns a.end().

[ Summit: ]

We look forward to a paper on this topic. We recommend no action until a paper is available. The paper would need to address exception safety.

[ Post Summit Alisdair adds: ]

Would value_type be a better return type than key_type?

[ 2009-07 post-Frankfurt: ]

Leave Open. Alisdair to contact Chris Jefferson about this.

[ 2009-09-20 Howard adds: ]

See the 2009-09-19 comment of 839⁽ⁱ⁾ for an API which accomplishes this functionality and also addresses several other use cases which this proposal does not.

Mark as NAD Future. No consensus to make the change at this time.

Original resolution [SUPERSEDED]:

In 23.2.7 [associative.reqmts] Table 85, add:

Table 85 -- Associative container requirements (in addition to container) Expression Return type Assertion/note
pre-/post-condition Complexity a.erase(q) ... ... ... a.extract(q) pair<key_type, iterator> Extracts the element pointed to by q and erases it from the set. Returns a pair containing the value pointed to by q and an iterator pointing to the element immediately following q prior to the element being erased. If no such element exists, returns a.end(). amortized constant

In 23.2.8 [unord.req] Table 87, add:

Table 87 -- Unordered associative container requirements (in addition to container) Expression Return type Assertion/note
pre-/post-condition Complexity a.erase(q) ... ... ... a.extract(q) pair<key_type, iterator> Extracts the element pointed to by q and erases it from the set. Returns a pair containing the value pointed to by q and an iterator pointing to the element immediately following q prior to the element being erased. If no such element exists, returns a.end(). amortized constant
