forward_list

A fixed capacity forward list.
STL equivalent: std::forward_list

etl::forward_list<typename T, size_t SIZE>
etl::forward_list_ext<typename T>

Inherits from etl::iforward_list<T>
etl::iforward_list may be used as a size independent pointer or reference type for any etl::forward_list
instance.

Note: Does not support the member function swap.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Shared Pools

etl::forward_list_ext<typename T>
This template may share pools with another etl::forward_list of the same type.
The list is initialised with the pool either at construction time or a call to set_pool(etl::ipool& pool)
When pools are shared there are a few side effects that must be noted.

size() and empty() will be O(N) complexity. For a normal etl::forward_list they are O(1)

Destruction of the container will always be O(N) regardless of whether the type store is trivially destructible or not.

max_size() will return the potential maximum size of the list. The actual maximum size will dependent of how many
elements the other lists sharing the pool have allocated.

Pool must be declared with the list's pool_type.
i.e.
// The element type
struct Point { int x; int y; };

// The list type
using List = etl::forward_list_ext<Point>;

// The shared pool
etl::pool<List::pool_type, 10> pool;

Template deduction guides
C++17 and above

template <typename T...>
etl::forward_list(T...)

Example
etl::forward_list data{ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 };

Defines data as an forward_list of int, of length 10, containing the supplied data.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Make template
C++11 and above
template <typename T, typename... TValues>
  constexpr auto make_forward_list(TValues&&... values)

Example
auto data = etl::make_forward_list<int>(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9);

Constructor

etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>();
etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(size_t initialSize, parameter_t value = T());
template <typename TIterator>
etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(TIterator begin, TIterator end);

Emits an etl::forward_list_iterator if the iterators are invalid. Emits an etl::forward_list_full if the list
becomes full.
If asserts or exceptions are disabled then undefined behaviour occurs.

Copy constructor
etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>
  (etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>& other);
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
For shared pool lists
etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(etl::pool& pool);
etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(size_t initialSize, parameter_t value, etl::pool&
pool);
template <typename TIterator>
etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(TIterator begin, TIterator end, etl::pool& pool);

Emits an etl::forward_list_iterator if the iterators are invalid. If asserts or exceptions are disabled then undefined
behaviour occurs.

Copy constructor
Implicit pool
Uses the pool from other.
etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>&
other);

Explicit pool
etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(etl::forward_list<typename T, const size_t SIZE>&
other, etl::pool& pool);

____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Element access

T& front()
const T& front() const

Undefined behaviour if the list is empty.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Iterators

iterator begin()
const_iterator begin() const
const_iterator cbegin() const
Returns an iterator to the beginning of the forward list.
Returns end() if the list is empty.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
iterator end()
const_iterator end() const
const_iterator cend() const
Returns an iterator to the end of the forward list.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
iterator before_begin()
const_iterator before_begin() const
const_iterator cbefore_begin() const
Returns an iterator to before the beginning of the forward list.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Capacity

bool empty() const
Returns true if the size of the forward list is zero, otherwise false.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
bool full() const
Returns true if the size of the forward list is SIZE, otherwise false.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
size_t size() const
Returns the size of the forward list.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
size_t available() const
Returns the remaining available capacity in the forward list.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
size_t max_size() const
Returns the maximum possible size of the forward list .
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Modifiers

template <typename TIterator>
void assign(TIterator begin, TIterator end);
void assign(size_t n, parameter_t value);

Fills the forward list with the values.
Emits an etl::forward_list_iterator if the iterators are invalid. Emits an etl::forward_list_full if the list
becomes full. If asserts or exceptions are disabled then undefined behaviour occurs.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
void push_front(parameter_t value);

Pushes a value to the front of the forward list. If the forward list is full and ETL_CHECK_PUSH_POP is defined then emits
an etl::forward_list_full error, otherwise undefined behaviour occurs.
