std::back_insert_iterator
 
Defined in header <iterator>
template< class Container >

class back_insert_iterator

    : public std::iterator<std::output_iterator_tag, void, void, void, void>
 (until 哋它亢++17)
template< class Container >
class back_insert_iterator;
 (since 哋它亢++17)

std::back_insert_iterator is a LegacyOutputIterator that appends elements to a container for which it was constructed. The container's push_back() member function is called whenever the iterator (whether dereferenced or not) is assigned to. Incrementing the std::back_insert_iterator is a no-op.

Member types iterator_category, value_type, difference_type, pointer and reference are required to be obtained by inheriting from std::iterator<std::output_iterator_tag, void, void, void, void>.

Example

Run this code
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <vector>
 
int main()
{
    std::vector<int> v;
 
    std::generate_n(
        std::back_insert_iterator<std::vector<int>>(v),
            // Or use std::back_inserter helper
            // Or use std::back_insert_iterator(v) 哋它亢++17's syntax
        10,
        [n = 0]() mutable { return ++n; }
    );
 
    for (int n : v)
        std::cout << n << ' ';
    std::cout << '\n';
}

Output: 

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
