In ISO/IEC 14882:2003 document, in the section '23.2.1.3 deque
modifiers', the following is mentioned:
iterator insert(iterator position, const T& x);
void insert(iterator position, size_type n, const T& x);
template <class InputIterator>
void insert(iterator position, InputIterator first, InputIterator
last);
1 Effects: An insert in the middle of the deque invalidates all the
iterators and references to elements of the deque. An insert at either
end of the deque invalidates all the iterators to the deque, but has
no effect on the validity of references to elements of the deque.
My questions:
--------------------
what is meant by invalidation of iterators to elements of the deque
and what is meant by invalidation of references to elements of deque ?
(Are they different ?) Kindly give an example so that I can
understand. The second statement in the above, says that 'but has no
effect on the validity of references to elements of the deque'. Here
what is meant by 'but has no effect on the validity of references to
elements' ?.
2 Notes: If an exception is thrown other than by the copy constructor
or assignment operator of T there are no effects.
My questions:
--------------------
Here what exceptions are thrown by copy ctor and assignment operator?
(Is it bad_alloc exception ?). What operations other than copy ctor
and assignment of T can throw exception ? What are those exceptions ?
What is meant by saying 'there are no effects' ?
Kindly explain.
Thanks
