Compares the contents of two multisets.

1,2) Checks if the contents of lhs and rhs are equal, that is, they have the same number of elements and each element in lhs compares equal with the element in rhs at the same position.
3-6) Compares the contents of lhs and rhs lexicographically. The comparison is performed by a function equivalent to std::lexicographical_compare. This comparison ignores the multiset's ordering Compare.
7) Compares the contents of lhs and rhs lexicographically. The comparison is performed as if by calling std::lexicographical_compare_three_way(lhs.begin(), lhs.end(),
                                       rhs.begin(), rhs.end(), synth-three-way)
.This comparison ignores the multiset's ordering Compare.
The return type is the return type of synth-three-way (i.e., synth-three-way-result <T>).
If none of the following conditions is satisfied, the behavior is undefined:
  • T models three_way_comparable.
  • < is defined for values of type (possibly const-qualified) T, and < is a total ordering relationship.

The <, <=, >, >=, and != operators are synthesized from operator<=> and operator== respectively.

[edit] Parameters

lhs, rhs - multisets whose contents to compare
-
Key must meet the requirements of EqualityComparable in order to use overloads (1,2).

[edit] Return value

1) true if the contents of the multisets are equal, false otherwise.
2) true if the contents of the multisets are not equal, false otherwise.
3) true if the contents of the lhs are lexicographically less than the contents of rhs, false otherwise.
4) true if the contents of the lhs are lexicographically less than or equal to the contents of rhs, false otherwise.
5) true if the contents of the lhs are lexicographically greater than the contents of rhs, false otherwise.
6) true if the contents of the lhs are lexicographically greater than or equal to the contents of rhs, false otherwise.
7) The relative order of the first pair of non-equivalent elements in lhs and rhs if there are such elements, lhs.size() <=> rhs.size() otherwise.

[edit] Complexity

1,2) Constant if lhs and rhs are of different size, otherwise linear in the size of the multiset.
3-7) Linear in the size of the multiset.
