In C++, the `std::queue` container does not provide direct methods to reserve capacity or shrink-to-fit because it is an adapter that uses a deque or list as its underlying container. However, we can manage the underlying container to achieve similar behavior indirectly.
Since `std::queue` does not directly support reservation, we can create an underlying container (like `std::deque`) and reserve capacity on that container before assigning it to the queue.
To reduce the capacity of the underlying container, you need to clear the queue and then create a new queue with a new underlying container that has been shrunk. Clearing the queue effectively removes elements, and you can then recreate it with the desired size.
#include <iostream>
#include <queue>
int main() {
std::deque tempDeque;
tempDeque.resize(100); // Reserve capacity using deque
std::queue> myQueue(std::move(tempDeque));
// Adding elements
for(int i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
myQueue.push(i);
}
// Shrinking the queue
std::queue> newQueue;
while (!myQueue.empty()) {
newQueue.push(myQueue.front());
myQueue.pop();
}
std::cout << "New Queue Size: " << newQueue.size() << std::endl;
return 0;
}
