estd::vector

Overview

estd::vector is a fixed-capacity contiguous storage sequence container with an interface similar to the std::vector.

Unlike the STL vector, estd::vector has an internal fixed-size storage allocated and will therefore not grow or reallocate memory. This makes its memory behavior similar to that of the estd::array, but with the added utility of .size() tracking the currently used portion of the container.

Random access has constant time complexity. Arbitrary insertions or deletions have linear time complexity in the distance to the end of the vector and invalidate the iterators of elements behind the target position.

Usage Context

Preconditions	Make sure to include the appropriate library header for vector.
Assumptions of usage	The vector has a fixed max_size which is given at the time of declaration. This memory is allocated in stack. Expanding further than the max_size is not possible.
Recommended usage guidance	Since the declare namespace allocates the memory, use it to create the vector. For handling the vector like passing it to function, use estd::vector<T, size_type> class. Accessing outside the size of vector is not allowed.
