<h1>Projection Iterator Adaptor</h1>
Defined in header
<a href="../../boost/iterator_adaptors.hpp">boost/iterator_adaptors.hpp</a>
<p>
The projection iterator adaptor is similar to the <a
href="./transform_iterator.htm">transform iterator adaptor</a> in that
its <tt>operator*()</tt> applies some function to the result of
dereferencing the base iterator and then returns the result. The
difference is that the function must return a reference to some
existing object (for example, a data member within the
<tt>value_type</tt> of the base iterator). The following
<b>pseudo-code</b> gives the basic idea. The data member <tt>p</tt> is
the function object.
<pre>
reference projection_iterator::operator*() const {
return this->p(*this->base_iterator);
}
</pre>

<h2><a name="projection_iterator_generator">The Projection Iterator Type
Generator</a></h2>
The class <tt>projection_iterator_generator</tt> is a helper class
whose purpose is to construct an projection iterator type. The main
template parameter for this class is the <a
href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/AdaptableUnaryFunction.html"><tt>AdaptableUnaryFunction</tt></a>
function object type and the <tt>BaseIterator</tt> type that is being
wrapped.
<pre>
template &lt;class <a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/AdaptableUnaryFunction.html">AdaptableUnaryFunction</a>, class BaseIterator&gt;
class projection_iterator_generator
{
public:
typedef <tt><a href="./iterator_adaptor.htm">iterator_adaptor</a>&lt...&gt;</tt> type; // the resulting projection iterator type
};
</pre>
<h3>Example</h3>
In the following example we have a list of personnel records. Each
record has an employee's name and ID number. We want to be able to
traverse through the list accessing either the name or the ID numbers
of the employees using the projection iterator so we create the
function object classes <tt>select_name</tt> and
<tt>select_ID</tt>. We then use the
<tt>projection_iterator_generator</tt> class to create a projection
iterator and use it to print out the names of the employees.
<pre>
#include &lt;boost/config.hpp&gt;
#include &lt;list&gt;
#include &lt;iostream&gt;
#include &lt;iterator&gt;
#include &lt;algorithm&gt;
#include &lt;string&gt;
#include &lt;boost/iterator_adaptors.hpp&gt;
struct personnel_record {
personnel_record(std::string n, int id) : m_name(n), m_ID(id) { }
std::string m_name;
int m_ID;
};
struct select_name {
typedef personnel_record argument_type;
typedef std::string result_type;
const std::string&amp; operator()(const personnel_record&amp; r) const {
return r.m_name;
}
std::string&amp; operator()(personnel_record&amp; r) const {
return r.m_name;
}
};
struct select_ID {
typedef personnel_record argument_type;
typedef int result_type;
const int&amp; operator()(const personnel_record&amp; r) const {
return r.m_ID;
}
int&amp; operator()(personnel_record&amp; r) const {
return r.m_ID;
}
};
int main(int, char*[])
{
std::list&lt;personnel_record&gt; personnel_list;
personnel_list.push_back(personnel_record("Barney", 13423));
personnel_list.push_back(personnel_record("Fred", 12343));
personnel_list.push_back(personnel_record("Wilma", 62454));
personnel_list.push_back(personnel_record("Betty", 20490));
// Example of using projection_iterator_generator
// to print out the names in the personnel list.
boost::projection_iterator_generator&lt;select_name,
std::list&lt;personnel_record&gt;::iterator&gt;::type
personnel_first(personnel_list.begin()),
personnel_last(personnel_list.end());
std::copy(personnel_first, personnel_last,
std::ostream_iterator&lt;std::string&gt;(std::cout, "\n"));
std::cout &lt;&lt; std::endl;
// to be continued...
</pre>
The output for this part is:
<pre>
Barney
Fred
Wilma
Betty

<TR>
<TH>Parameter</TH><TH>Description</TH>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD><a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/AdaptableUnaryFunction.html"><tt>AdaptableUnaryFunction</tt></a></TD>
<TD>The type of the function object. The <tt>argument_type</tt> of the
function must match the value type of the base iterator. The function
should return a reference to the function's <tt>result_type</tt>.
The <tt>result_type</tt> will be the resulting iterator's <tt>value_type</tt>.
</TD>
</TD>
<TR>
<TD><tt>BaseIterator</tt></TD>
<TD>The iterator type being wrapped.</TD>
</TD>
</TR>
</Table>
<h3>Model of</h3>
If the base iterator is a model of <a
href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/RandomAccessIterator.html">Random
Access Iterator</a> then so is the resulting projection iterator. If
the base iterator supports less functionality than this the resulting
projection iterator will also support less functionality.
<h3>Members</h3>
The projection iterator type implements the member functions and
operators required of the <a
href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/RandomAccessIterator.html">Random
Access Iterator</a> concept.
In addition it has the following constructor:
<pre>
projection_iterator_generator::type(const BaseIterator&amp; it,
const AdaptableUnaryFunction&amp; p = AdaptableUnaryFunction())
</pre>

<h2><a name="projection_iterator_pair_generator">The Projection Iterator Pair
Generator</a></h2>
Sometimes a mutable/const pair of iterator types is needed, such as
when implementing a container type. The
<tt>projection_iterator_pair_generator</tt> class makes it more
convenient to create this pair of iterator types.
<pre>
template &lt;class <a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/AdaptableUnaryFunction.html">AdaptableUnaryFunction</a>, class BaseIterator, class ConstBaseIterator&gt;
class projection_iterator_pair_generator
{
public:
typedef <tt><a href="./iterator_adaptor.htm">iterator_adaptor</a>&lt...&gt;</tt> iterator; // the mutable projection iterator type
typedef <tt><a href="./iterator_adaptor.htm">iterator_adaptor</a>&lt...&gt;</tt> const_iterator; // the immutable projection iterator type
};
</pre>
<h3>Example</h3>
In this part of the example we use the
<tt>projection_iterator_pair_generator</tt> to create a mutable/const
pair of projection iterators that access the ID numbers of the
personnel. We use the mutable iterator to re-index the ID numbers from
zero. We then use the constant iterator to print the ID numbers out.
<pre>
// continuing from the last example...
typedef boost::projection_iterator_pair_generator&lt;select_ID,
std::list&lt;personnel_record&gt;::iterator,
std::list&lt;personnel_record&gt;::const_iterator&gt; PairGen;
PairGen::iterator ID_first(personnel_list.begin()),
ID_last(personnel_list.end());
int new_id = 0;
while (ID_first != ID_last) {
*ID_first = new_id++;
++ID_first;
}
PairGen::const_iterator const_ID_first(personnel_list.begin()),
const_ID_last(personnel_list.end());
std::copy(const_ID_first, const_ID_last,
std::ostream_iterator&lt;int&gt;(std::cout, " "));
std::cout &lt;&lt; std::endl;
std::cout &lt;&lt; std::endl;
// to be continued...
</pre&gt;
The output is:
<pre>
0 1 2 3

<h3>Template Parameters</h3>

</TR>
<TR>
<TD><a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/AdaptableUnaryFunction.html"><tt>AdaptableUnaryFunction</tt></a></TD>
<TD>The type of the function object. The <tt>argument_type</tt> of the

</TR>
<TR>
<TD><tt>ConstBaseIterator</tt></TD>
<TD>The constant iterator type being wrapped.</TD>
</TD>
</TR>
</Table>
<h3>Model of</h3>
If the base iterator types model the <a
href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/RandomAccessIterator.html">Random
Access Iterator</a> then so do the resulting projection iterator
types. If the base iterators support less functionality the
resulting projection iterator types will also support less
functionality. The resulting <tt>iterator</tt> type is mutable, and
the resulting <tt>const_iterator</tt> type is constant.
<h3>Members</h3>
The resulting <tt>iterator</tt> and <tt>const_iterator</tt> types
implements the member functions and operators required of the <a
href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/RandomAccessIterator.html">Random
Access Iterator</a> concept. In addition they support the following
constructors:
<pre>
projection_iterator_pair_generator::iterator(const BaseIterator&amp; it,
const AdaptableUnaryFunction&amp; p = AdaptableUnaryFunction())</pre>
<pre>
projection_iterator_pair_generator::const_iterator(const BaseIterator&amp; it,
const AdaptableUnaryFunction&amp; p = AdaptableUnaryFunction())
</pre>

<h2><a name="make_projection_iterator">The Projection Iterator Object Generators</a></h2>
The <tt>make_projection_iterator()</tt> and
<tt>make_const_projection_iterator()</tt> functions provide a more
convenient way to create projection iterator objects. The functions
save the user the trouble of explicitly writing out the iterator
types.
<pre>
template &lt;class <a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/AdaptableUnaryFunction.html">AdaptableUnaryFunction</a>, class BaseIterator&gt;
typename projection_iterator_generator&lt;AdaptableUnaryFunction, BaseIterator&gt;::type
make_projection_iterator(BaseIterator base,
const AdaptableUnaryFunction& p = AdaptableUnaryFunction())
template &lt;class <a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/AdaptableUnaryFunction.html">AdaptableUnaryFunction</a>, class ConstBaseIterator&gt;
typename projection_iterator_generator&lt;AdaptableUnaryFunction, ConstBaseIterator&gt;::type
make_const_projection_iterator(ConstBaseIterator base,
const AdaptableUnaryFunction& p = AdaptableUnaryFunction())
</pre>
<h3>Example</h3>
In this part of the example, we again print out the names of the
personnel, but this time we use the
<tt>make_projection_iterator()</tt> function to save some typing.
<pre>
// continuing from the last example...
std::copy
(boost::make_const_projection_iterator&lt;select_name&gt;(personnel_list.begin()),
boost::make_const_projection_iterator&lt;select_name&gt;(personnel_list.end()),
std::ostream_iterator<std::string>(std::cout, "\n"));
return 0;
}
</pre>
The output is:
<pre>
Barney
Fred
Wilma
Betty
