uniform container erasure

logical operator type traits

 

Defined in header <experimental/list>
template< class T, class A, class U > void erase( std::list<T, A>& c, const U& value );		(library fundamentals TS v2)

Erases all elements that compare equal to value from the container. Equivalent to c.remove_if([&](auto& elem) { return elem == value; });.

Parameters

c	-	container from which to erase
value	-	value to be removed

Complexity

Linear.

Example

Run this code

#include <experimental/list>
#include <iostream>
 
auto show = [](const auto& container)
{
    for (auto e : container)
        std::cout << e;
    std::cout << '\n';
};
 
int main()
{
    std::list<int> data{1, 1, 1, 4, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1};
    show(data);
    std::experimental::erase(data, 1);
    show(data);
}

Output:

11141112111
42

Notes

Unlike std::list::remove, this function template accepts heterogeneous types and does not force a conversion to the container's value type before invoking the == operator.
