GClasses::GPriorityQueue Class Reference

Detailed Description

An implementation of a double-ended heap-based priority queue. (Note that the multimap STL class can also be used to implement a double-ended priority queue, but the STL does not currently provide a heap-based double-ended priority queue, which is asymptotically more efficient for insertions.)
