std::map::emplace(3)	      C++ Standard Libary	  std::map::emplace(3)

NAME
       std::map::emplace - std::map::emplace

Synopsis
	  template< class... Args >				(since C++11)
	  std::pair<iterator, bool> emplace( Args&&... args );

	  Inserts  a  new element into the container constructed in-place with
       the given args,
	  if there is no element with the key in the container.

	  The constructor of the new element (i.e. std::pair<const Key,	T>) is
       called with
	  exactly the same arguments as	supplied to emplace, forwarded via
	  std::forward<Args>(args).... The element may be constructed even  if
       there already is
	  an  element  with  the key in	the container, in which	case the newly
       constructed
	  element will be destroyed immediately.

	  Careful use of emplace allows	the  new  element  to  be  constructed
       while avoiding
	  unnecessary copy or move operations.

	  No iterators or references are invalidated.

Parameters
	  args - arguments to forward to the constructor of the	element

Return value
	  A  pair consisting of	an iterator to the inserted element (or	to the
       element that
	  prevented the	insertion) and a bool value set	to true	if and only if
       the insertion
	  took place.

Exceptions
	  If an	exception is thrown for	any reason, this function has  no  ef-
       fect (strong
	  exception safety guarantee).

Complexity
	  Logarithmic in the size of the container.

Example
       // Run this code

	#include <iostream>
	#include <string>
	#include <utility>
	#include <map>

	int main()
	{
	    std::map<std::string, std::string> m;

	    // uses pair's move	constructor
	    m.emplace(std::make_pair(std::string("a"), std::string("a")));

	    // uses pair's converting move constructor
	    m.emplace(std::make_pair("b", "abcd"));

	    // uses pair's template constructor
	    m.emplace("d", "ddd");

	    // emplace with duplicate key has no effect
	    m.emplace("d", "DDD");

	    // uses pair's piecewise constructor
	    m.emplace(std::piecewise_construct,
		      std::forward_as_tuple("c"),
		      std::forward_as_tuple(10,	'c'));
	    // an alternative is: m.try_emplace("c", 10, 'c');

	    for	(const auto& p : m)
		std::cout << p.first <<	" => " << p.second << '\n';
	}

Output:
	a => a
	b => abcd
	c => cccccccccc
	d => ddd
