1-4) These deduction guides are provided for map to allow deduction from an iterator range (overloads (1,3)) and std::initializer_list (overloads (2,4)).
5,6) These deduction guides are provided for map to allow deduction from a std::from_range_t tag and an input_range.

These overloads participate in overload resolution only if InputIt satisfies LegacyInputIterator, Alloc satisfies Allocator, and Comp does not satisfy Allocator.

Note: the extent to which the library determines that a type does not satisfy LegacyInputIterator is unspecified, except that as a minimum integral types do not qualify as input iterators. Likewise, the extent to which it determines that a type does not satisfy Allocator is unspecified, except that as a minimum the member type Alloc::value_type must exist and the expression std::declval<Alloc&>().allocate(std::size_t{}) must be well-formed when treated as an unevaluated operand.

Notes

Feature-test macro Value Std Comment
__cpp_lib_containers_ranges 202202L (C++23) Ranges-aware construction and insertion; overload (5,6)

Example

#include <map>
 
int main()
{
    // std::map m1 = {{"foo", 1}, {"bar", 2}};
        // Error: braced-init-list has no type; cannot deduce
        // pair<Key, T> from {"foo", 1} or {"bar", 2}
 
    std::map m1 = {std::pair{"foo", 2}, {"bar", 3}}; // guide #2
    std::map m2(m1.begin(), m1.end()); // guide #1
}
