std::unordered_multimap::merge(3)

NAME
std::unordered_multimap::merge - std::unordered_multimap::merge

Synopsis
   template< class H2, class P2 >
   void merge( std::unordered_map<Key, T, H2, P2, Allocator>& source (1) (since C++17)
   );
   template< class H2, class P2 >
   void merge( std::unordered_map<Key, T, H2, P2, Allocator>&& source (2) (since C++17)
   );
   template< class H2, class P2 >
   void merge( std::unordered_multimap<Key, T, H2, P2, Allocator>& (3) (since C++17)
   source );
   template< class H2, class P2 >
   void merge( std::unordered_multimap<Key, T, H2, P2, Allocator>&& (4) (since C++17)
   source );
   Attempts to extract ("splice") each element in source and insert it into *this using
   the hash function and key equality predicate of *this.
   No elements are copied or moved, only the internal pointers of the container nodes
   are repointed. All pointers and references to the transferred elements remain valid,
   but now refer into *this, not into source. Iterators referring to the transferred
   elements and all iterators referring to *this are invalidated.
   The behavior is undefined if get_allocator() != source.get_allocator().

Parameters
   source - compatible container to transfer the nodes from

Return value
   (none)

Complexity
   Average case O(N), worst case O(N * size() + N), where N is source.size().

Example
// Run this code
 #include <iostream>
 #include <string>
 #include <unordered_map>
 #include <utility>
 // print out a std::pair
 template<class Os, class U, class V>
 Os& operator<<(Os& os, const std::pair<U,V>& p)
 {
     return os << '{' << p.first << ", " << p.second << '}';
 }
 // print out an associative container
 template<class Os, class K, class V>
 Os& operator<<(Os& os, const std::unordered_multimap<K, V>& v)
 {
     os << '[' << v.size() << "] {";
     bool o{};
     for (const auto& e : v)
         os << (o ? ", " : (o = 1, "")) << e;
     return os << "}\n";
 }
 int main()
 {
     std::unordered_multimap<std::string, int>
         p{{"C", 3}, {"B", 2}, {"A", 1}, {"A", 0}},
         q{{"E", 6}, {"E", 7}, {"D", 5}, {"A", 4}};
     std::cout << "p: " << p << "q: " << q;
     p.merge(q);
     std::cout << "p.merge(q);\n" << "p: " << p << "q: " << q;
 }

Possible output:
 p: [4] {{A, 1}, {A, 0}, {B, 2}, {C, 3}}
 q: [4] {{A, 4}, {D, 5}, {E, 6}, {E, 7}}
 p.merge(q);
 p: [8] {{E, 6}, {E, 7}, {C, 3}, {A, 1}, {A, 0}, {A, 4}, {D, 5}, {B, 2}}
 q: [0] {}
