<h3><a name="unique_non_unique">
Index specifiers <code>ordered_unique</code> and <code>ordered_non_unique</code>
</a></h3>
<p>
These <a href="indices.html#index_specification">index specifiers</a> allow
for insertion of <a href="#ord_indices">ordered indices</a> without and with
allowance of duplicate elements, respectively. The syntax of <code>ordered_unique</code>
and <code>ordered_non_unique</code> coincide, thus we describe them in a grouped manner.
<code>ordered_unique</code> and <code>ordered_non_unique</code> can be instantiated in
two different forms, according to whether a tag list for the index is provided or not:

<p>
If provided, <code>TagList</code> must be an instantiation of the class template
<a href="indices.html#tag"><code>tag</code></a>.
The template arguments are used by the corresponding index implementation,
refer to the <a href="#ord_indices">ordered indices</a> reference section for further
explanations on their acceptable type values.
</p>
<h3><a name="ord_indices">Ordered indices</a></h3>
<p>
An ordered index provides a set-like interface to the underlying heap of
elements contained in a <code>multi_index_container</code>. An ordered index is
particularized according to a given
<a href="key_extraction.html#key_extractors"><code>Key Extractor</code></a>
that retrieves keys from elements of <code>multi_index_container</code> and a comparison
predicate.
</p>
<p>
There are two variants of ordered indices: <i>unique</i>, which do
not allow duplicate elements (with respect to its associated comparison
predicate) and <i>non-unique</i>, which accept those duplicates.
The interface of these two variants is the same, so they are documented
together, with minor differences explicitly stated when they exist.
</p>
<p>
Except where noted or if the corresponding interface does not exist,
ordered indices (both unique and non-unique) satisfy the C++ requirements
for associative containers at <b>[associative.reqmts]</b>
(supporting unique and equivalent keys, respectively.)
Accordingly, validity of iterators and references to elements is
preserved. We only provide descriptions of those types and operations that
do not exactly conform to or are not mandated by the standard requirements.

<h4><a name="complexity_signature">Complexity signature</a></h4>
<p>
Here and in the descriptions of operations of ordered indices, we adopt the
scheme outlined in the
<a href="indices.html#complexity_signature">complexity signature
section</a>. The complexity signature of ordered indices is:
<ul>
<li>copying: <code>c(n)=n*log(n)</code>,</li>
<li>insertion: <code>i(n)=log(n)</code>,</li>
<li>hinted insertion: <code>h(n)=1</code> (constant) if the hint element
is immediately after the point of insertion, <code>h(n)=log(n)</code> otherwise,</li>
<li>deletion: <code>d(n)=1</code> (amortized constant),</li>
<li>replacement: <code>r(n)=1</code> (constant) if the element position does not
change, <code>r(n)=log(n)</code> otherwise,</li>
<li>modifying: <code>m(n)=1</code> (constant) if the element position does not
change, <code>m(n)=log(n)</code> otherwise.</li>
</ul>
</p>
<h4><a name="instantiation_types">Instantiation types</a></h4>
<p>Ordered indices are instantiated internally to <code>multi_index_container</code> and
specified by means of <a href="indices.html#indexed_by"><code>indexed_by</code></a>
with <a href="#unique_non_unique"> index specifiers <code>ordered_unique</code>
and <code>ordered_non_unique</code></a>. Instantiations are dependent on the
following types:
<ul>
<li><code>Value</code> from <code>multi_index_container</code>,</li>
<li><code>Allocator</code> from <code>multi_index_container</code>,</li>
<li><code>TagList</code> from the index specifier (if provided, otherwise <code>tag&lt;&gt;</code> is assumed),</li>
<li><code>KeyFromValue</code> from the index specifier,</li>
<li><code>Compare</code> from the index specifier.</li>
</ul>
<code>TagList</code> must be an instantiation of
<a href="indices.html#tag"><code>tag</code></a>. The type <code>KeyFromValue</code>,
which determines the mechanism for extracting a key from <code>Value</code>,
must be a model of <a href="key_extraction.html#key_extractors">
<code>Key Extractor</code></a> from <code>Value</code>. <code>Compare</code> is a
<code>CopyConstructible</code> binary predicate inducing a strict weak order
on elements of <code>KeyFromValue::result_type</code>.
</p>
<h4><a name="constructors">Constructors, copy and assignment</a></h4>
<p>
As explained in the <a href="indices.html#index_concepts">index
concepts section</a>, indices do not have public constructors or destructors.
Assignment, on the other hand, is provided.

Ordered indices provide the full lookup functionality required by

<code>count</code>, <code>lower_bound</code>, <code>upper_bound</code>
and <code>equal_range</code>. Additionally, these member functions are
templatized to allow for non-standard arguments, so extending
the types of search operations allowed. The kind of arguments permissible

concept.

<p>
Consider a binary predicate <code>Compare</code> inducing a strict
weak order over values of type <code>Key</code>. A pair of types (<code>CompatibleKey</code>,
<code>CompatibleCompare</code>) is said to be a <i>compatible extension</i>
of <code>Compare</code> if
<ol>
<li><code>CompatibleCompare</code> is a binary predicate over (<code>Key</code>,
<code>CompatibleKey</code>),</li>
<li><code>CompatibleCompare</code> is a binary predicate over (<code>CompatibleKey</code>,
<code>Key</code>),</li>
<li>if <code>c_comp(ck,k1)</code> then <code>!c_comp(k1,ck)</code>,</li>
<li>if <code>!c_comp(ck,k1)</code> and <code>!comp(k1,k2)</code> then

<li>if <code>!c_comp(k1,ck)</code> and <code>!comp(k2,k1)</code> then

<code>comp</code> of type <code>Compare</code>, <code>ck</code> of type
<code>CompatibleKey</code> and <code>k1</code>, <code>k2</code> of type

</p>
<p>Additionally, a type <code>CompatibleKey</code> is said to be a
<i>compatible key</i> of <code>Compare</code> if (<code>CompatibleKey</code>,
<code>Compare</code>) is a compatible extension of <code>Compare</code>.
This implies that <code>Compare</code>, as well as being a strict
weak ordering, accepts arguments of type <code>CompatibleKey</code>,
which usually means it has several overloads of <code>operator()</code>.

In the context of a compatible extension or a compatible key, the expressions
"equivalent", "less than" and "greater than" take on their obvious
interpretations.

are modeled after the following concepts.

Consider a binary predicate <code>Compare</code> inducing a strict
weak order over values of type <code>Key</code>. A type <code>LowerBounder</code> is said to be

<li>if <code>lower(k1)</code> and <code>!comp(k2,k1)</code> then

</ol>
for every <code>lower</code> of type <code>LowerBounder</code>,
