A.18.14 The Generic Package Containers.Indefinite_Ordered_Maps
The language-defined generic package Containers.Indefinite_Ordered_Maps
provides a map with the same operations as the package Containers.Ordered_Maps
(see
A.18.6), with the difference that the
generic formal types Key_Type and Element_Type are indefinite.
Static Semantics
The declaration of
the generic library package Containers.Indefinite_Ordered_Maps
has the same contents and semantics as Containers.Ordered_Maps except:
The generic formal Key_Type is indefinite.
The generic formal Element_Type is indefinite.
The procedure with
the profile:
procedure Insert (Container : in out Map;
Key : in Key_Type;
Position : out Cursor;
Inserted : out Boolean);
is omitted.
The actual Element parameter of access subprogram
Process of Update_Element may be constrained even if Element_Type is
unconstrained.
The operations Include, Insert, Replace, and Replace_Element
that have a formal parameter of type Element_Type perform indefinite
insertion (see
A.18).
The description of
Tampering_With_Elements_Prohibited is replaced by:
Returns True if tampering with elements is prohibited
for Container, and False otherwise.
Tampering_With_Cursors_Prohibited is replaced by
Tampering_With_Elements_Prohibited in the postcondition for the operations
Reference and Constant_Reference.
The operations Replace and Replace_Element are
omitted from the nested package Stable.
