# basic_json::emplace
|
||
|
|
||
|
```cpp
|
||
|
template<class... Args>
|
||
|
std::pair<iterator, bool> emplace(Args&& ... args);
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Inserts a new element into a JSON object constructed in-place with the given `args` if there is no element with the key
|
||
|
in the container. If the function is called on a JSON null value, an empty object is created before appending the value
|
||
|
created from `args`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Template parameters
|
||
|
|
||
|
`Args`
|
||
|
: compatible types to create a `basic_json` object
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Parameters
|
||
|
|
||
|
`args` (in)
|
||
|
: arguments to forward to a constructor of `basic_json`
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Return value
|
||
|
|
||
|
a pair consisting of an iterator to the inserted element, or the already-existing element if no insertion happened, and
|
||
|
a `#!cpp bool` denoting whether the insertion took place.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Exceptions
|
||
|
|
||
|
Throws [`type_error.311`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error311) when called on a type other than JSON
|
||
|
object or `#!json null`; example: `"cannot use emplace() with number"`
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Complexity
|
||
|
|
||
|
Logarithmic in the size of the container, O(log(`size()`)).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Examples
|
||
|
|
||
|
??? example
|
||
|
|
||
|
The example shows how `emplace()` can be used to add elements to a JSON object. Note how the `#!json null` value was
|
||
|
silently converted to a JSON object. Further note how no value is added if there was already one value stored with
|
||
|
the same key.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```cpp
|
||
|
--8<-- "examples/emplace.cpp"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Output:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```json
|
||
|
--8<-- "examples/emplace.output"
|
||
|
```
