从c++ 20开始，使用range (#include <ranges>)

    //SAMPLE DATA
    std::vector<int> vecOfElements = { 2,4,6,8 };

    //DO SOMETHING IF 8 IN VECTOR
    if (std::ranges::find(vecOfElements, 8) != vecOfElements.end())
    {
        std::cout << "DO SOMETHING" << std::endl;
    }

(c++ 17及以上):

还可以使用std::search吗

这对于搜索元素序列也很有用。

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>

template <typename Container>
bool search_vector(const Container& vec, const Container& searchvec)
{
    return std::search(vec.begin(), vec.end(), searchvec.begin(), searchvec.end()) != vec.end();
}

int main()
{
     std::vector<int> v = {2,4,6,8};

     //THIS WORKS. SEARCHING ONLY ONE ELEMENT.
     std::vector<int> searchVector1 = {2};
     if(search_vector(v,searchVector1))
         std::cout<<"searchVector1 found"<<std::endl;
     else
         std::cout<<"searchVector1 not found"<<std::endl;

     //THIS WORKS, AS THE ELEMENTS ARE SEQUENTIAL.
     std::vector<int> searchVector2 = {6,8};
     if(search_vector(v,searchVector2))
         std::cout<<"searchVector2 found"<<std::endl;
     else
         std::cout<<"searchVector2 not found"<<std::endl;

     //THIS WILL NOT WORK, AS THE ELEMENTS ARE NOT SEQUENTIAL.
     std::vector<int> searchVector3 = {8,6};
     if(search_vector(v,searchVector3))
         std::cout<<"searchVector3 found"<<std::endl;
     else
         std::cout<<"searchVector3 not found"<<std::endl;
}

此外，还可以灵活地传递一些搜索算法。请参考这里。

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm/search

template <typename T> bool IsInVector(const T & what, const std::vector<T> & vec)
{
    return std::find(vec.begin(),vec.end(),what)!=vec.end();
}

你可以试试下面的代码:

#include <algorithm>
#include <vector>

// You can use class, struct or primitive data type for Item
struct Item {
    //Some fields
};
typedef std::vector<Item> ItemVector;
typedef ItemVector::iterator ItemIterator;
//...
ItemVector vtItem;
//... (init data for vtItem)
Item itemToFind;
//...

ItemIterator itemItr;
itemItr = std::find(vtItem.begin(), vtItem.end(), itemToFind);
if (itemItr != vtItem.end()) {
    // Item found
    // doThis()
}
else {
    // Item not found
    // doThat()
}

从c++ 20开始，使用range (#include <ranges>)

    //SAMPLE DATA
    std::vector<int> vecOfElements = { 2,4,6,8 };

    //DO SOMETHING IF 8 IN VECTOR
    if (std::ranges::find(vecOfElements, 8) != vecOfElements.end())
    {
        std::cout << "DO SOMETHING" << std::endl;
    }

在c++ 11中，你可以使用any_of。例如，如果它是一个向量<字符串> v;然后:

if (any_of(v.begin(), v.end(), bind(equal_to<string>(), _1, item)))
   do_this();
else
   do_that();

或者，使用lambda:

if (any_of(v.begin(), v.end(), [&](const std::string& elem) { return elem == item; }))
   do_this();
else
   do_that();
