insert_iterator::reference

A type that provides a reference to an element in a sequence controlled by the associated container.

typedef typename Container::reference reference;

Remarks

The type describes a reference to an element of the sequence controlled by the associated container.

Example

// insert_iterator_container_reference.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <iterator>
#include <list>
#include <iostream>

int main( )
{
   using namespace std;

   list<int> L;
   insert_iterator<list<int> > iivIter( L , L.begin ( ) );
   *iivIter = 10;
   *iivIter = 20;
   *iivIter = 30;

   
   list<int>::iterator LIter;
   cout << "The list L is: ( ";
   for ( LIter = L.begin ( ) ; LIter != L.end ( ); LIter++ )
      cout << *LIter << " ";
   cout << ")." << endl;

   insert_iterator<list<int> >::reference 
        RefFirst = *(L.begin ( ));
   cout << "The first element in the list L is: " 
        << RefFirst << "." << endl;
}

The list L is: ( 10 20 30 ).
The first element in the list L is: 10.
