Key extractors

Let Key be a type with some implicit equivalence relationship and Value a type constructible from Key. A Default Constructible type KeyFromValue is said to be a key extractor from Value to Key if

  1. kfv(cv) is defined and have type const Key&,
  2. kfv(cv) is equivalent to kfv(Value(cv)),
  3. kfv(Value(k)) is equivalent to k,
for every kfv of type const KeyFromValue, cv of type const Value and k of type Key.

Class template key_value

In flyweight instantiations of the form flyweight<T,...>, the associated key_type and value_type are both equal to T. Instantiations of the form flyweight<key_value<Key,Value[,KeyFromValue]>,...> allow to specify these types separately. Key and Value must be different types. When provided, KeyFromValue must be a Key Extractor from Value to Key.
