list::end (STL/CLR)

The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.

The latest version of this topic can be found at list::end (STL/CLR).

Designates the end of the controlled sequence.

Syntax

iterator end();  

Remarks

The member function returns a random-access iterator that points just beyond the end of the controlled sequence. You use it to obtain an iterator that designates the end of the controlled sequence; its status doesn not change if the length of the controlled sequence changes.

Example

// cliext_list_end.cpp   
// compile with: /clr   
#include <cliext/list>   
  
int main()   
    {   
    cliext::list<wchar_t> c1;   
    c1.push_back(L'a');   
    c1.push_back(L'b');   
    c1.push_back(L'c');   
  
// display initial contents " a b c"   
    for each (wchar_t elem in c1)   
        System::Console::Write(" {0}", elem);   
    System::Console::WriteLine();   
  
// inspect last two items   
    cliext::list<wchar_t>::iterator it = c1.end();   
    --it;   
    System::Console::WriteLine("*-- --end() = {0}", *--it);   
    System::Console::WriteLine("*--end() = {0}", *++it);   
  
// alter first two items and reinspect   
    *--it = L'x';   
    *++it = L'y';   
    for each (wchar_t elem in c1)   
        System::Console::Write(" {0}", elem);   
    System::Console::WriteLine();   
    return (0);   
    }  
  

 a b c  
*-- --end
() = b  
*--end
() = c  
 a x y
