std::unordered_multiset is an associative container that contains set of possibly non-unique objects of type Key. Search, insertion, and removal have average constant-time complexity.

Internally, the elements are not sorted in any particular order, but organized into buckets. Which bucket an element is placed into depends entirely on the hash of its value. This allows fast access to individual elements, since once hash is computed, it refers to the exact bucket the element is placed into.

The iteration order of this container is not required to be stable (so, for example, std::equal cannot be used to compare two std::unordered_multisets), except that every group of elements whose keys compare equivalent (compare equal with key_eq() as the comparator) forms a contiguous subrange in the iteration order, also accessible with equal_range().

std::unordered_multiset meets the requirements of Container, AllocatorAwareContainer, UnorderedAssociativeContainer.

Member type Definition
key_type Key
value_type Key
size_type Unsigned integer type (usually std::size_t)
difference_type Signed integer type (usually std::ptrdiff_t)
hasher Hash
key_equal KeyEqual
allocator_type Allocator
reference value_type&
const_reference const value_type&
pointer std::allocator_traits<Allocator>::pointer

iterator Constant LegacyForwardIterator to value_type
const_iterator LegacyForwardIterator to const value_type
local_iterator An iterator type whose category, value, difference, pointer and
reference types are the same as iterator. This iterator
can be used to iterate through a single bucket but not across buckets
const_local_iterator An iterator type whose category, value, difference, pointer and
reference types are the same as const_iterator. This iterator
can be used to iterate through a single bucket but not across buckets
node_type (since C++17) a specialization of node handle representing a container node

Notes

The member types iterator and const_iterator may be aliases to the same type. This means defining a pair of function overloads using the two types as parameter types may violate the One Definition Rule. Since iterator is convertible to const_iterator, a single function with a const_iterator as parameter type will work instead.
