Description

Template representation of the environment of this process. It takes a template as template parameter to implement the environment. All instances of this class refer to the same environment, but might not get updated if another one makes changes.

`basic_native_environment` public construct/copy/destruct

```
basic_native_environment();
```
Default constructor.

basic_native_environment(basic_native_environment &&);

Move constructor.

basic_native_environment & operator=(basic_native_environment &&);

Move assignment.

`basic_native_environment` public member functions

```
iterator begin();
```

```
const_iterator cend() const;
```
Returns an iterator to the end.
```
iterator find(const string_type & key);
```
Find a variable by its name.

const_iterator find(const string_type & key) const;

Find a variable by its name.

std::size_t count(const string_type & st) const;

Number of variables.

```
void erase(const string_type & id);
```
Erase variable by id.

std::pair< iterator, bool > 
emplace(const string_type & id, const string_type & value);

Emplace an environment variable.

```
bool empty();
```
Check if environment has entries.
```
std::size_t size() const;
```

```
entry_type at(const string_type & key);
```
