See More

Swaps the objects pointed to by two adjusted underlying iterators.

Equivalent to auto tmp_x = x.base();
auto tmp_y = y.base();
ranges::iter_swap(--tmp_x, --tmp_y);.

This function template is not visible to ordinary unqualified or qualified lookup, and can only be found by argument-dependent lookup when std::reverse_iterator<Iter> is an associated class of the arguments.

Parameters

x, y

-

reverse iterators to the elements to swap

Complexity

Constant.

Exceptions

noexcept specification:  

noexcept( std::is_nothrow_copy_constructible_v<Iter> && std::is_nothrow_copy_constructible_v<Iter2> && noexcept(ranges::iter_swap(--std::declval<Iter&>(), --std::declval<Iter2&>())) )

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <list>
#include <vector>

int main()
{
    std::vector v{1, 2, 3};
    std::list l{4, 5, 6};
    
    std::reverse_iterator<std::vector<int>::iterator> r1{v.rbegin()};
    std::reverse_iterator<std::list<int>::iterator> r2{l.rbegin()};
    
    std::cout << *r1 << ' ' << *r2 << '\n';
    
    iter_swap(r1, r2); // ADL
    
    std::cout << *r1 << ' ' << *r2 << '\n';
}

Output:

3 6
6 3
