#
The header <utility> defines several types and function templates that are described in this Clause.
It also defines the template pair and various function templates that operate on pair objects.
2
#
The type chars_­format is a bitmask type ([bitmask.types]) with elements scientific, fixed, and hex.

23.2.2 Operators [operators]

1
#
To avoid redundant definitions of operator!= out of operator== and operators >, <=, and >= out of operator<, the library provides the following:
🔗
template <class T> bool operator!=(const T& x, const T& y);
2
#
Requires: Type T is EqualityComparable (Table 20).
3
#
Returns: !(x == y).
🔗
template <class T> bool operator>(const T& x, const T& y);
4
#
Requires: Type T is LessThanComparable (Table 21).
5
#
Returns: y < x.
🔗
template <class T> bool operator<=(const T& x, const T& y);
6
#
Requires: Type T is LessThanComparable (Table 21).
7
#
Returns: !(y < x).
🔗
template <class T> bool operator>=(const T& x, const T& y);
8
#
Requires: Type T is LessThanComparable (Table 21).
9
#
Returns: !(x < y).
10
#
In this library, whenever a declaration is provided for an operator!=, operator>, operator>=, or operator<=, and requirements and semantics are not explicitly provided, the requirements and semantics are as specified in this Clause.

23.2.3 swap [utility.swap]

🔗
template <class T> void swap(T& a, T& b) noexcept(see below);
1
#
Remarks: This function shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_­move_­constructible_­v<T> is true and is_­move_­assignable_­v<T> is true.
The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to:
is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<T> && is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<T>
2
#
Requires: Type T shall be MoveConstructible (Table 23) and MoveAssignable (Table 25).
3
#
Effects: Exchanges values stored in two locations.
🔗
template <class T, size_t N> void swap(T (&a)[N], T (&b)[N]) noexcept(is_nothrow_swappable_v<T>);
4
#
Remarks: This function shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_­swappable_­v<T> is true.
5
#
Requires: a[i] shall be swappable with ([swappable.requirements]) b[i] for all i in the range [0, N).
6
#
Effects: As if by swap_­ranges(a, a + N, b).

23.2.4 exchange [utility.exchange]

🔗
template <class T, class U = T> T exchange(T& obj, U&& new_val);
1
#
Effects: Equivalent to: 
T old_val = std::move(obj);
obj = std::forward<U>(new_val);
return old_val;

23.2.5 Forward/move helpers [forward]

1
#
The library provides templated helper functions to simplify applying move semantics to an lvalue and to simplify the implementation of forwarding functions.
All functions specified in this subclause are signal-safe ([csignal.syn]).
🔗
template <class T> constexpr T&& forward(remove_reference_t<T>& t) noexcept; template <class T> constexpr T&& forward(remove_reference_t<T>&& t) noexcept;
2
#
Returns: static_­cast<T&&>(t).
3
#
Remarks: If the second form is instantiated with an lvalue reference type, the program is ill-formed.
4
#
[ Example
: 
template <class T, class A1, class A2>
shared_ptr<T> factory(A1&& a1, A2&& a2) {
  return shared_ptr<T>(new T(std::forward<A1>(a1), std::forward<A2>(a2)));
}

struct A {
  A(int&, const double&);
};

void g() {
  shared_ptr<A> sp1 = factory<A>(2, 1.414); // error: 2 will not bind to int&
  int i = 2;
  shared_ptr<A> sp2 = factory<A>(i, 1.414); // OK
}
In the first call to factory, A1 is deduced as int, so 2 is forwarded to A's constructor as an rvalue.
In the second call to factory, A1 is deduced as int&, so i is forwarded to A's constructor as an lvalue.
In both cases, A2 is deduced as double, so 1.414 is forwarded to A's constructor as an rvalue.
— end example
 ]
🔗
template <class T> constexpr remove_reference_t<T>&& move(T&& t) noexcept;
5
#
Returns: static_­cast<remove_­reference_­t<T>&&>(t).
6
#
[ Example
: 
template <class T, class A1>
shared_ptr<T> factory(A1&& a1) {
  return shared_ptr<T>(new T(std::forward<A1>(a1)));
}

struct A {
  A();
  A(const A&);      // copies from lvalues
  A(A&&);           // moves from rvalues
};

void g() {
  A a;
  shared_ptr<A> sp1 = factory<A>(a);                // “a” binds to A(const A&)
  shared_ptr<A> sp1 = factory<A>(std::move(a));     // “a” binds to A(A&&)
}
In the first call to factory, A1 is deduced as A&, so a is forwarded as a non-const lvalue.
This binds to the constructor A(const A&), which copies the value from a.
In the second call to factory, because of the call std​::​move(a), A1 is deduced as A, so a is forwarded as an rvalue.
This binds to the constructor A(A&&), which moves the value from a.
— end example
 ]
🔗
template <class T> constexpr conditional_t< !is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<T> && is_copy_constructible_v<T>, const T&, T&&> move_if_noexcept(T& x) noexcept;
7
#
Returns: std​::​move(x).

23.2.6 Function template as_­const [utility.as_const]

🔗
template <class T> constexpr add_const_t<T>& as_const(T& t) noexcept;
1
#
Returns: t.

23.2.7 Function template declval [declval]

1
#
The library provides the function template declval to simplify the definition of expressions which occur as unevaluated operands (Clause [expr]).
🔗
template <class T> add_rvalue_reference_t<T> declval() noexcept; // as unevaluated operand
2
#
Remarks: If this function is odr-used ([basic.def.odr]), the program is ill-formed.
3
#
Remarks: The template parameter T of declval may be an incomplete type.
4
#
[ Example
: 
template <class To, class From> decltype(static_cast<To>(declval<From>())) convert(From&&);
declares a function template convert which only participates in overloading if the type From can be explicitly converted to type To.
For another example see class template common_­type ([meta.trans.other]).
— end example
 ]

23.2.8 Primitive numeric output conversion [utility.to.chars]

1
#
All functions named to_­chars convert value into a character string by successively filling the range [first, last), where [first, last) is required to be a valid range.
If the member ec of the return value is such that the value, when converted to bool, is false, the conversion was successful and the member ptr is the one-past-the-end pointer of the characters written.
Otherwise, the member ec has the value errc​::​value_­too_­large, the member ptr has the value last, and the contents of the range [first, last) are unspecified.
2
#
The functions that take a floating-point value but not a precision parameter ensure that the string representation consists of the smallest number of characters such that there is at least one digit before the radix point (if present) and parsing the representation using the corresponding from_­chars function recovers value exactly.
[ Note
:
This guarantee applies only if to_­chars and from_­chars are executed on the same implementation.
— end note
 ]
3
#
The functions taking a chars_­format parameter determine the conversion specifier for printf as follows: The conversion specifier is f if fmt is chars_­format​::​fixed, e if fmt is chars_­format​::​scientific, a (without leading "0x" in the result) if fmt is chars_­format​::​hex, and g if fmt is chars_­format​::​general.
🔗
to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, see below value, int base = 10);
4
#
Requires: base has a value between 2 and 36 (inclusive).
5
#
Effects: The value of value is converted to a string of digits in the given base (with no redundant leading zeroes).
Digits in the range 10.
35 (inclusive) are represented as lowercase characters a.
z.
If value is less than zero, the representation starts with a minus sign.
6
#
Throws: Nothing.
7
#
Remarks: The implementation shall provide overloads for all signed and unsigned integer types and char as the type of the parameter value.
🔗
to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, float value); to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, double value); to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, long double value);
8
#
Effects: value is converted to a string in the style of printf in the "C" locale.
The conversion specifier is f or e, chosen according to the requirement for a shortest representation (see above); a tie is resolved in favor of f.
9
#
Throws: Nothing.
🔗
to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, float value, chars_format fmt); to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, double value, chars_format fmt); to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, long double value, chars_format fmt);
10
#
Requires: fmt has the value of one of the enumerators of chars_­format.
11
#
Effects: value is converted to a string in the style of printf in the "C" locale.
12
#
Throws: Nothing.
🔗
to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, float value, chars_format fmt, int precision); to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, double value, chars_format fmt, int precision); to_chars_result to_chars(char* first, char* last, long double value, chars_format fmt, int precision);
13
#
Requires: fmt has the value of one of the enumerators of chars_­format.
14
#
Effects: value is converted to a string in the style of printf in the "C" locale with the given precision.
15
#
Throws: Nothing.
See also: ISO C 7.21.6.1.

23.2.9 Primitive numeric input conversion [utility.from.chars]

1
#
All functions named from_­chars analyze the string [first, last) for a pattern, where [first, last) is required to be a valid range.
If no characters match the pattern, value is unmodified, the member ptr of the return value is first and the member ec is equal to errc​::​invalid_­argument.
Otherwise, the characters matching the pattern are interpreted as a representation of a value of the type of value.
The member ptr of the return value points to the first character not matching the pattern, or has the value last if all characters match.
If the parsed value is not in the range representable by the type of value, value is unmodified and the member ec of the return value is equal to errc​::​result_­out_­of_­range.
Otherwise, value is set to the parsed value and the member ec is set such that the conversion to bool yields false.
🔗
from_chars_result from_chars(const char* first, const char* last, see below& value, int base = 10);
2
#
Requires: base has a value between 2 and 36 (inclusive).
3
#
Effects: The pattern is the expected form of the subject sequence in the "C" locale for the given nonzero base, as described for strtol, except that no "0x" or "0X" prefix shall appear if the value of base is 16, and except that a minus sign is the only sign that may appear, and only if value has a signed type.
4
#
Throws: Nothing.
5
#
Remarks: The implementation shall provide overloads for all signed and unsigned integer types and char as the referenced type of the parameter value.
🔗
from_chars_result from_chars(const char* first, const char* last, float& value, chars_format fmt = chars_format::general); from_chars_result from_chars(const char* first, const char* last, double& value, chars_format fmt = chars_format::general); from_chars_result from_chars(const char* first, const char* last, long double& value, chars_format fmt = chars_format::general);
6
#
Requires: fmt has the value of one of the enumerators of chars_­format.
7
#
Effects: The pattern is the expected form of the subject sequence in the "C" locale, as described for strtod, except that
  • (7.1)
    the only sign that may appear is a minus sign;
  • (7.2)
    if fmt has chars_­format​::​scientific set but not chars_­format​::​fixed, the otherwise optional exponent part shall appear;
  • (7.3)
    if fmt has chars_­format​::​fixed set but not chars_­format​::​scientific, the optional exponent part shall not appear; and
  • (7.4)
    if fmt is chars_­format​::​hex, the prefix "0x" or "0X" is assumed.
    [ Example
    :
    The string 0x123 is parsed to have the value 0 with remaining characters x123.
    — end example
     ]
In any case, the resulting value is one of at most two floating-point values closest to the value of the string matching the pattern.
8
#
Throws: Nothing.
See also: ISO C 7.22.1.3, ISO C 7.22.1.4.

23.3 Compile-time integer sequences [intseq]

23.3.1 In general [intseq.general]

1
#
The library provides a class template that can represent an integer sequence.
When used as an argument to a function template the parameter pack defining the sequence can be deduced and used in a pack expansion.
[ Note
:
The index_­sequence alias template is provided for the common case of an integer sequence of type size_­t; see also [tuple.apply].
— end note
 ]

23.3.2 Class template integer_­sequence [intseq.intseq]

namespace std {
  template<class T, T... I>
    struct integer_sequence {
      using value_type = T;
      static constexpr size_t size() noexcept { return sizeof...(I); }
    };
}
1
#
T shall be an integer type.

23.3.3 Alias template make_­integer_­sequence [intseq.make]

🔗
template<class T, T N> using make_integer_sequence = integer_sequence<T, see below>;
1
#
If N is negative the program is ill-formed.
The alias template make_­integer_­sequence denotes a specialization of integer_­sequence with N template non-type arguments.
The type make_­integer_­sequence<T, N> denotes the type integer_­sequence<T, 0, 1, ..., N-1>.
[ Note
:
make_­integer_­sequence<int, 0> denotes the type integer_­sequence<int>
— end note
 ]

23.4 Pairs [pairs]

23.4.1 In general [pairs.general]

1
#
The library provides a template for heterogeneous pairs of values.
The library also provides a matching function template to simplify their construction and several templates that provide access to pair objects as if they were tuple objects (see [tuple.helper] and [tuple.elem]).

23.4.2 Class template pair [pairs.pair]

namespace std {
  template <class T1, class T2>
    struct pair {

1
#
The struct piecewise_­construct_­t is an empty structure type used as a unique type to disambiguate constructor and function overloading.
Specifically, pair has a constructor with piecewise_­construct_­t as the first argument, immediately followed by two tuple ([tuple]) arguments used for piecewise construction of the elements of the pair object.

23.5 Tuples [tuple]

23.5.1 In general [tuple.general]

1
#
This subclause describes the tuple library that provides a tuple type as the class template tuple that can be instantiated with any number of arguments.
Each template argument specifies the type of an element in the tuple.
Consequently, tuples are heterogeneous, fixed-size collections of values.
An instantiation of tuple with two arguments is similar to an instantiation of pair with the same two arguments.

#
Requires: Alloc shall meet the requirements for an Allocator ([allocator.requirements]).
26

Effects: Equivalent to the preceding constructors except that each element is constructed with uses-allocator construction ([allocator.uses.construction]).

23.5.3.2 Assignment [tuple.assign]

1
#
For each tuple assignment operator, an exception is thrown only if the assignment of one of the types in Types throws an exception.
In the function descriptions that follow, let i be in the range [0, sizeof...​(Types)) in order, T be the type in Types, and U be the type in a template parameter pack named UTypes, where indexing is zero-based.
🔗
tuple& operator=(const tuple& u);
2
#
Effects: Assigns each element of u to the corresponding element of *this.
3
#
Remarks: This operator shall be defined as deleted unless is_­copy_­assignable_­v<T> is true for all i.
4
#
Returns: *this.
🔗
tuple& operator=(tuple&& u) noexcept(see below);
5
#
Effects: For all i, assigns std​::​forward<T>(get<i>(u)) to get<i>(*this).
6
#
Remarks: This operator shall be defined as deleted unless is_­move_­assignable_­v<T> is true for all i.
7
#
Remarks: The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to the logical and of the following expressions:
is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<>
where is the type in Types.
8
#
Returns: *this.
🔗
template <class... UTypes> tuple& operator=(const tuple<UTypes...>& u);
9
#
Effects: Assigns each element of u to the corresponding element of *this.
10
#
Remarks: This operator shall not participate in overload resolution unless sizeof...(Types) == sizeof...(UTypes) and is_­assignable_­v<T&, const U&> is true for all i.
11
#
Returns: *this.
🔗
template <class... UTypes> tuple& operator=(tuple<UTypes...>&& u);
12
#
Effects: For all i, assigns std​::​forward<U>(get<i>(u)) to get<i>(*this).
13
#
Remarks: This operator shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_­assignable_­v<T&, U&&> == true for all i and sizeof...(Types) == sizeof...(UTypes).
14
#
Returns: *this.
🔗
template <class U1, class U2> tuple& operator=(const pair<U1, U2>& u);
15
#
Effects: Assigns u.first to the first element of *this and u.second to the second element of *this.
16
#
Remarks: This operator shall not participate in overload resolution unless sizeof...(Types) == 2 and is_­assignable_­v<T&, const U1&> is true for the first type T in Types and is_­assignable_­v<T&, const U2&> is true for the second type T in Types.
17
#
Returns: *this.
🔗
template <class U1, class U2> tuple& operator=(pair<U1, U2>&& u);
18
#
Effects: Assigns std​::​forward<U1>(u.first) to the first element of *this and
std​::​forward<U2>(u.second) to the second element of *this.

#
Remarks: This operator shall not participate in overload resolution unless sizeof...(Types) == 2 and is_­assignable_­v<T&, U1&&> is true for the first type T in Types and is_­assignable_­v<T&, U2&&> is true for the second type T in Types.
20
#
Returns: *this.

23.5.3.3 swap [tuple.swap]

🔗
void swap(tuple& rhs) noexcept(see below);
1
#
Requires: Each element in *this shall be swappable with ([swappable.requirements]) the corresponding element in rhs.
2
#
Effects: Calls swap for each element in *this and its corresponding element in rhs.
3
#
Remarks: The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to the logical and of the following expressions:
is_nothrow_swappable_v<>

Throws: Nothing unless one of the element-wise swap calls throws an exception.

23.5.3.4 Tuple creation functions [tuple.creation]

1
#
In the function descriptions that follow, the members of a parameter pack XTypes are denoted by X for i in [0, sizeof...(XTypes)) in order, where indexing is zero-based.
🔗
template<class... TTypes> constexpr tuple<VTypes...> make_tuple(TTypes&&... t);
2
#
The pack VTypes is defined as follows.
Let U be decay_­t<T> for each T in TTypes.
If U is a specialization of reference_­wrapper, then V in VTypes is U​::​type&, otherwise V is U.
3
#
Returns: tuple<VTypes...>(std​::​forward<TTypes>(t)...).
4
#
[ Example
: 
int i; float j;
make_tuple(1, ref(i), cref(j))
creates a tuple of type tuple<int, int&, const float&>.
— end example
 ]
🔗
template<class... TTypes> constexpr tuple<TTypes&&...> forward_as_tuple(TTypes&&... t) noexcept;
5
#
Effects: Constructs a tuple of references to the arguments in t suitable for forwarding as arguments to a function.
Because the result may contain references to temporary variables, a program shall ensure that the return value of this function does not outlive any of its arguments (e.g., the program should typically not store the result in a named variable).
6
#
Returns: tuple<TTypes&&...>(std​::​forward<TTypes>(t)...).
🔗
template<class... TTypes> constexpr tuple<TTypes&...> tie(TTypes&... t) noexcept;
7
#
Returns: tuple<TTypes&...>(t...).
When an argument in t is ignore, assigning any value to the corresponding tuple element has no effect.
8
#
[ Example
:
tie functions allow one to create tuples that unpack tuples into variables.
ignore can be used for elements that are not needed: 
int i; std::string s;
tie(i, ignore, s) = make_tuple(42, 3.14, "C++");
// i == 42, s == "C++"
— end example
 ]
🔗
template <class... Tuples> constexpr tuple<CTypes...> tuple_cat(Tuples&&... tpls);
9
#
In the following paragraphs, let T be the type in Tuples, U be remove_­reference_­t<T>, and tp be the parameter in the function parameter pack tpls, where all indexing is zero-based.
10
#
Requires: For all i, U shall be the type tuple<Args...>, where is the (possibly empty) cv-qualifier-seq and Args is the parameter pack representing the element types in U.
Let A be the type in Args.
For all A the following requirements shall be satisfied:
  • (10.1)
    If T is deduced as an lvalue reference type, then is_­constructible_­v<A, &> == true, otherwise
  • (10.2)
    is_­constructible_­v<A, &&> == true.
11
#
Remarks: The types in CTypes shall be equal to the ordered sequence of the extended types Args..., Args..., …, Args..., where n is equal to sizeof...(Tuples).
Let e... be the ordered sequence of tuple elements of the resulting tuple object corresponding to the type sequence Args.
12
#
Returns: A tuple object constructed by initializing the type element e in e... with 
get<>(std::forward<T>(tp))
for each valid and each group e in order.
13
#
[ Note
:
An implementation may support additional types in the parameter pack Tuples that support the tuple-like protocol, such as pair and array.

23.5.3.5 Calling a function with a tuple of arguments [tuple.apply]

🔗
template <class F, class Tuple> constexpr decltype(auto) apply(F&& f, Tuple&& t);

#
Effects: Given the exposition-only function: 
template <class F, class Tuple, size_t... I>
constexpr decltype(auto)
    apply_impl(F&& f, Tuple&& t, index_sequence<I...>) {                // exposition only

Equivalent to: 
return apply_impl(std::forward<F>(f), std::forward<Tuple>(t),
                  make_index_sequence<tuple_size_v<decay_t<Tuple>>>{});
🔗
template <class T, class Tuple> constexpr T make_from_tuple(Tuple&& t);
2
#
Effects: Given the exposition-only function: 
template <class T, class Tuple, size_t... I>
constexpr T make_from_tuple_impl(Tuple&& t, index_sequence<I...>) {     // exposition only
  return T(get<I>(std::forward<Tuple>(t))...);
}
Equivalent to: 
return make_from_tuple_impl<T>(forward<Tuple>(t),
                               make_index_sequence<tuple_size_v<decay_t<Tuple>>>{});
[ Note
:
The type of T must be supplied as an explicit template parameter, as it cannot be deduced from the argument list.

🔗
template <size_t I, class... Types> class tuple_element<I, tuple<Types...>> { public: using type = TI; };
2
#
Requires: I < sizeof...(Types).
The program is ill-formed if I is out of bounds.
3
#
Type: TI is the type of the Ith element of Types, where indexing is zero-based.
🔗
template <class T> class tuple_size<const T>; template <class T> class tuple_size<volatile T>; template <class T> class tuple_size<const volatile T>;
4
#
Let TS denote tuple_­size<T> of the cv-unqualified type T.
If the expression TS​::​value is well-formed when treated as an unevaluated operand, then each of the three templates shall meet the UnaryTypeTrait requirements ([meta.rqmts]) with a base characteristic of 
integral_constant<size_t, TS::value>
Otherwise, they shall have no member value.
5
#
Access checking is performed as if in a context unrelated to TS and T.
Only the validity of the immediate context of the expression is considered.
[ Note
:
The compilation of the expression can result in side effects such as the instantiation of class template specializations and function template specializations, the generation of implicitly-defined functions, and so on.
Such side effects are not in the “immediate context” and can result in the program being ill-formed.

7
#
Let TE denote tuple_­element_­t<I, T> of the cv-unqualified type T.
Then each of the three templates shall meet the TransformationTrait requirements ([meta.rqmts]) with a member typedef type that names the following type:
  • (7.1)
    for the first specialization, add_­const_­t<TE>,
  • (7.2)
    for the second specialization, add_­volatile_­t<TE>, and

1
#
Requires: I < sizeof...(Types).
The program is ill-formed if I is out of bounds.
2

Returns: A reference to the Ith element of t, where indexing is zero-based.
3
#
[ Note
:
[Note A] If a T in Types is some reference type X&, the return type is X&, not X&&.
However, if the element type is a non-reference type T, the return type is T&&.

[ Note
:
[Note B] Constness is shallow.
If a T in Types is some reference type X&, the return type is X&, not const X&.
However, if the element type is a non-reference type T, the return type is const T&.
This is consistent with how constness is defined to work for member variables of reference type.

#
Requires: The type T occurs exactly once in Types....
Otherwise, the program is ill-formed.

23.5.3.8 Relational operators [tuple.rel]

🔗
template<class... TTypes, class... UTypes> constexpr bool operator==(const tuple<TTypes...>& t, const tuple<UTypes...>& u);
1
#
Requires: For all i, where 0 <= i and i < sizeof...(TTypes), get<i>(t) == get<i>(u) is a valid expression returning a type that is convertible to bool.
sizeof...(TTypes) == sizeof...(UTypes).
2
#
Returns: true if get<i>(t) == get<i>(u) for all i, otherwise false.
For any two zero-length tuples e and f, e == f returns true.
3
#
Effects: The elementary comparisons are performed in order from the zeroth index upwards.
No comparisons or element accesses are performed after the first equality comparison that evaluates to false.
🔗
template<class... TTypes, class... UTypes> constexpr bool operator<(const tuple<TTypes...>& t, const tuple<UTypes...>& u);
4
#
Requires: For all i, where 0 <= i and i < sizeof...(TTypes), both get<i>(t) < get<i>(u) and get<i>(u) < get<i>(t) are valid expressions returning types that are convertible to bool.
sizeof...(TTypes) == sizeof...(UTypes).
5
#
Returns: The result of a lexicographical comparison between t and u.
The result is defined as: (bool)(get<0>(t) < get<0>(u)) || (!(bool)(get<0>(u) < get<0>(t)) && t < u), where r for some tuple r is a tuple containing all but the first element of r.
For any two zero-length tuples e and f, e < f returns false.
🔗
template<class... TTypes, class... UTypes> constexpr bool operator!=(const tuple<TTypes...>& t, const tuple<UTypes...>& u);
6
#
Returns: !(t == u).
🔗

7
#
Returns: u < t.
🔗
template<class... TTypes, class... UTypes> constexpr bool operator<=(const tuple<TTypes...>& t, const tuple<UTypes...>& u);

[ Note
:
The above definitions for comparison functions do not require t (or u) to be constructed.
It may not even be possible, as t and u are not required to be copy constructible.
Also, all comparison functions are short circuited; they do not perform element accesses beyond what is required to determine the result of the comparison.

Any instance of optional<T> at any given time either contains a value or does not contain a value.
When an instance of optional<T> contains a value, it means that an object of type T, referred to as the optional object's contained value, is allocated within the storage of the optional object.
Implementations are not permitted to use additional storage, such as dynamic memory, to allocate its contained value.
The contained value shall be allocated in a region of the optional<T> storage suitably aligned for the type T.
When an object of type optional<T> is contextually converted to bool, the conversion returns true if the object contains a value; otherwise the conversion returns false.

#
Any instance of variant at any given time either holds a value of one of its alternative types, or it holds no value.
When an instance of variant holds a value of alternative type T, it means that a value of type T, referred to as the variant object's contained value, is allocated within the storage of the variant object.
Implementations are not permitted to use additional storage, such as dynamic memory, to allocate the contained value.
The contained value shall be allocated in a region of the variant storage suitably aligned for all types in Types....
It is implementation-defined whether over-aligned types are supported.
2
#
All types in Types... shall be (possibly cv-qualified) object types that are not arrays.

#
A program that instantiates the definition of variant with no template arguments is ill-formed.

[ Note
:
A variant might not hold a value if an exception is thrown during a type-changing assignment or emplacement.
The latter means that even a variant<float, int> can become valueless_­by_­exception(), for instance by

23.7.3.6 Swap [variant.swap]

🔗

1
#
Requires: Lvalues of type T shall be swappable ([swappable.requirements]) and is_­move_­constructible_­v<T> shall be true for all i.
2
#
Effects:
  • (2.1)
    if valueless_­by_­exception() && rhs.valueless_­by_­exception() no effect.
    Otherwise,
  • (2.2)
    if index() == rhs.index(), calls swap(get<i>(*this), get<i>(rhs)) where i is index().
    Otherwise,
  • (2.3)
    exchanges values of rhs and *this.
3
#
Throws: If index() == rhs.index(), any exception thrown by swap(get<i>(*this), get<i>(rhs)) with i being index().
Otherwise, any exception thrown by the move constructor of T or T with i being index() and j being rhs.index().
4
#
Remarks: If an exception is thrown during the call to function swap(get<i>(*this), get<i>(rhs)), the states of the contained values of *this and of rhs are determined by the exception safety guarantee of swap for lvalues of T with i being index().
If an exception is thrown during the exchange of the values of *this and rhs, the states of the values of *this and of rhs are determined by the exception safety guarantee of variant's move constructor.
The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to the logical AND of is_­nothrow_­move_­constructible_­v<T> && is_­nothrow_­swappable_­v<T> for all i.

#
This section describes components that C++ programs may use to perform operations on objects of a discriminated type.

[ Note
:
The discriminated type may contain values of different types but does not attempt conversion between them, i.e. 5 is held strictly as an int and is not implicitly convertible either to "5" or to 5.0.
This indifference to interpretation but awareness of type effectively allows safe, generic containers of single values, with no scope for surprises from ambiguous conversions.

An object of class any stores an instance of any type that satisfies the constructor requirements or it has no value, and this is referred to as the state of the class any object.

The non-member any_­cast functions provide type-safe access to the contained value.

#
The class template bitset<N>describes an object that can store a sequence consisting of a fixed number of bits, N.
2
#
Each bit represents either the value zero (reset) or one (set).
To toggle a bit is to change the value zero to one, or the value one to zero.
Each bit has a non-negative position pos.
When converting between an object of class bitset<N> and a value of some integral type, bit position pos corresponds to the bit value 1 << pos.
The integral value corresponding to two or more bits is the sum of their bit values.
3
#
The functions described in this subclause can report three kinds of errors, each associated with a distinct exception:

23.9.2.1 bitset constructors [bitset.cons]

🔗
constexpr bitset() noexcept;
1
#
Effects: Constructs an object of class bitset<N>, initializing all bits to zero.
🔗
constexpr bitset(unsigned long long val) noexcept;
2
#
Effects: Constructs an object of class bitset<N>, initializing the first M bit positions to the corresponding bit values in val.
M is the smaller of N and the number of bits in the value representation ([basic.types]) of unsigned long long.
If M < N, the remaining bit positions are initialized to zero.
🔗
template <class charT, class traits, class Allocator> explicit bitset(const basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>& str, typename basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>::size_type pos = 0, typename basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>::size_type n = basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>::npos, charT zero = charT('0'), charT one = charT('1'));
3
#
Throws: out_­of_­range if pos > str.size() or invalid_­argument if an invalid character is found (see below).
4
#
Effects: Determines the effective length rlen of the initializing string as the smaller of n and str.size() - pos.
The function then throws invalid_­argument if any of the rlen characters in str beginning at position pos is other than zero or one.
The function uses traits​::​eq() to compare the character values.
Otherwise, the function constructs an object of class bitset<N>, initializing the first M bit positions to values determined from the corresponding characters in the string str.
M is the smaller of N and rlen.
5
#
An element of the constructed object has value zero if the corresponding character in str, beginning at position pos, is zero.
Otherwise, the element has the value one.
Character position pos + M - 1 corresponds to bit position zero.
Subsequent decreasing character positions correspond to increasing bit positions.
6
#
If M < N, remaining bit positions are initialized to zero.
🔗
template <class charT> explicit bitset( const charT* str, typename basic_string<charT>::size_type n = basic_string<charT>::npos, charT zero = charT('0'), charT one = charT('1'));
7
#
Effects: Constructs an object of class bitset<N> as if by: 
bitset(
  n == basic_string<charT>::npos
    ? basic_string<charT>(str)
    : basic_string<charT>(str, n),
  0, n, zero, one)

32
#
Effects: Constructs a string object of the appropriate type and initializes it to a string of length N characters.

5
#
Effects: Extracts up to N characters from is.
Stores these characters in a temporary object str of type basic_­string<charT, traits>, then evaluates the expression x = bitset<N>(str).
Characters are extracted and stored until any of the following occurs:
  • (5.1)
    N characters have been extracted and stored;
  • (5.2)
    end-of-file occurs on the input sequence;
  • (5.3)
    the next input character is neither is.widen('0') nor is.widen('1') (in which case the input character is not extracted).
6

    static pointer pointer_to(see below r) noexcept;
  };
}

23.10.3.1 Pointer traits member types [pointer.traits.types]

🔗
using element_type = see below;
1
#
Type: Ptr​::​element_­type if the qualified-id Ptr​::​element_­type is valid and denotes a type ([temp.deduct]); otherwise, T if Ptr is a class template instantiation of the form SomePointer<T, Args>, where Args is zero or more type arguments; otherwise, the specialization is ill-formed.
🔗
using difference_type = see below;
2
#
Type: Ptr​::​difference_­type if the qualified-id Ptr​::​difference_­type is valid and denotes a type ([temp.deduct]); otherwise, ptrdiff_­t.
🔗
template <class U> using rebind = see below;
3
#
Alias template: Ptr​::​rebind<U> if the qualified-id Ptr​::​rebind<U> is valid and denotes a type ([temp.deduct]); otherwise, SomePointer<U, Args> if Ptr is a class template instantiation of the form SomePointer<T, Args>, where Args is zero or more type arguments; otherwise, the instantiation of rebind is ill-formed.

23.10.3.2 Pointer traits member functions [pointer.traits.functions]

🔗
static pointer pointer_traits::pointer_to(see below r); static pointer pointer_traits<T*>::pointer_to(see below r) noexcept;
1
#
Remarks: If element_­type is cv void, the type of r is unspecified; otherwise, it is element_­type&.
2
#
Returns: The first member function returns a pointer to r obtained by calling Ptr​::​pointer_­to(r) through which indirection is valid; an instantiation of this function is ill-formed if Ptr does not have a matching pointer_­to static member function.
The second member function returns addressof(r).

23.10.4 Pointer safety [util.dynamic.safety]

1
#
A complete object is declared reachable while the number of calls to declare_­reachable with an argument referencing the object exceeds the number of calls to undeclare_­reachable with an argument referencing the object.
🔗
void declare_reachable(void* p);
2
#
Requires: p shall be a safely-derived pointer ([basic.stc.dynamic.safety]) or a null pointer value.
3
#
Effects: If p is not null, the complete object referenced by p is subsequently declared reachable ([basic.stc.dynamic.safety]).
4
#
Throws: May throw bad_­alloc if the system cannot allocate additional memory that may be required to track objects declared reachable.
🔗
template <class T> T* undeclare_reachable(T* p);
5
#
Requires: If p is not null, the complete object referenced by p shall have been previously declared reachable, and shall be live ([basic.life]) from the time of the call until the last undeclare_­reachable(p) call on the object.
6
#
Returns: A safely derived copy of p which shall compare equal to p.
7
#
Throws: Nothing.
8
#
[ Note
:
It is expected that calls to declare_­reachable(p) will consume a small amount of memory in addition to that occupied by the referenced object until the matching call to undeclare_­reachable(p) is encountered.
Long running programs should arrange that calls are matched.
— end note
 ]
🔗
void declare_no_pointers(char* p, size_t n);
9
#
Requires: No bytes in the specified range are currently registered with declare_­no_­pointers().
If the specified range is in an allocated object, then it must be entirely within a single allocated object.
The object must be live until the corresponding undeclare_­no_­pointers() call.
[ Note
:
In a garbage-collecting implementation, the fact that a region in an object is registered with declare_­no_­pointers() should not prevent the object from being collected.
— end note
 ]
10
#
Effects: The n bytes starting at p no longer contain traceable pointer locations, independent of their type.
Hence indirection through a pointer located there is undefined if the object it points to was created by global operator new and not previously declared reachable.
[ Note
:
This may be used to inform a garbage collector or leak detector that this region of memory need not be traced.
— end note
 ]
11
#
Throws: Nothing.
12
#
[ Note
:
Under some conditions implementations may need to allocate memory.
However, the request can be ignored if memory allocation fails.
— end note
 ]
🔗
void undeclare_no_pointers(char* p, size_t n);
13
#
Requires: The same range must previously have been passed to declare_­no_­pointers().
14
#
Effects: Unregisters a range registered with declare_­no_­pointers() for destruction.
It must be called before the lifetime of the object ends.
15
#
Throws: Nothing.
🔗
pointer_safety get_pointer_safety() noexcept;
16
#
Returns: pointer_­safety​::​strict if the implementation has strict pointer safety ([basic.stc.dynamic.safety]).
It is implementation-defined whether get_­pointer_­safety returns pointer_­safety​::​relaxed or pointer_­safety​::​preferred if the implementation has relaxed pointer safety.221
221)
pointer_­safety​::​preferred might be returned to indicate that a leak detector is running so that the program can avoid spurious leak reports.

23.10.5 Align [ptr.align]

🔗
void* align(size_t alignment, size_t size, void*& ptr, size_t& space);
1
#
Effects: If it is possible to fit size bytes of storage aligned by alignment into the buffer pointed to by ptr with length space, the function updates ptr to represent the first possible address of such storage and decreases space by the number of bytes used for alignment.
Otherwise, the function does nothing.
2
#
Requires:
  • (2.1)
    alignment shall be a power of two
  • (2.2)
    ptr shall represent the address of contiguous storage of at least space bytes
3
#
Returns: A null pointer if the requested aligned buffer would not fit into the available space, otherwise the adjusted value of ptr.
4
#
[ Note
:
The function updates its ptr and space arguments so that it can be called repeatedly with possibly different alignment and size arguments for the same buffer.
— end note
 ]

23.10.6 Allocator argument tag [allocator.tag]

🔗
namespace std { struct allocator_arg_t { explicit allocator_arg_t() = default; }; inline constexpr allocator_arg_t allocator_arg{}; }
1
#
The allocator_­arg_­t struct is an empty structure type used as a unique type to disambiguate constructor and function overloading.
Specifically, several types (see tuple [tuple]) have constructors with allocator_­arg_­t as the first argument, immediately followed by an argument of a type that satisfies the Allocator requirements ([allocator.requirements]).

23.10.7 uses_­allocator [allocator.uses]

23.10.7.1 uses_­allocator trait [allocator.uses.trait]

🔗
template <class T, class Alloc> struct uses_allocator;
1
#
Remarks: Automatically detects whether T has a nested allocator_­type that is convertible from Alloc.
Meets the BinaryTypeTrait requirements ([meta.rqmts]).
The implementation shall provide a definition that is derived from true_­type if the qualified-id T​::​allocator_­type is valid and denotes a type ([temp.deduct]) and is_­convertible_­v<Alloc, T​::​allocator_­type> != false, otherwise it shall be derived from false_­type.
A program may specialize this template to derive from true_­type for a user-defined type T that does not have a nested allocator_­type but nonetheless can be constructed with an allocator where either:
  • (1.1)
    the first argument of a constructor has type allocator_­arg_­t and the second argument has type Alloc or
  • (1.2)
    the last argument of a constructor has type Alloc.

23.10.7.2 Uses-allocator construction [allocator.uses.construction]

1
#
Uses-allocator construction with allocator Alloc refers to the construction of an object obj of type T, using constructor arguments v1, v2, ..., vN of types V1, V2, ..., VN, respectively, and an allocator alloc of type Alloc, according to the following rules:
  • (1.1)
    if uses_­allocator_­v<T, Alloc> is false and is_­constructible_­v<T, V1, V2, ..., VN> is true, then obj is initialized as obj(v1, v2, ..., vN);
  • (1.2)
    otherwise, if uses_­allocator_­v<T, Alloc> is true and is_­constructible_­v<T, allocator_­arg_­t, Alloc, V1, V2, ..., VN> is true, then obj is initialized as obj(allocator_­arg, alloc, v1, v2, ..., vN);
  • (1.3)
    otherwise, if uses_­allocator_­v<T, Alloc> is true and is_­constructible_­v<T, V1, V2, ..., VN, Alloc> is true, then obj is initialized as obj(v1, v2, ..., vN, alloc);
  • (1.4)
    otherwise, the request for uses-allocator construction is ill-formed.
    [ Note
    :
    An error will result if uses_­allocator_­v<T, Alloc> is true but the specific constructor does not take an allocator.
    This definition prevents a silent failure to pass the allocator to an element.

23.10.8 Allocator traits [allocator.traits]

1
#
The class template allocator_­traits supplies a uniform interface to all allocator types.
An allocator cannot be a non-class type, however, even if allocator_­traits supplies the entire required interface.

:
Thus, it is always possible to create a derived class from an allocator.

23.10.11 C library memory allocation [c.malloc]

#
[ Note
:
The header <cstdlib> ([cstdlib.syn]) declares the functions described in this subclause.

 ]
🔗
void* aligned_alloc(size_t alignment, size_t size); void* calloc(size_t nmemb, size_t size); void* malloc(size_t size); void* realloc(void* ptr, size_t size);
2
#
Effects: These functions have the semantics specified in the C standard library.
3
#
Remarks: These functions do not attempt to allocate storage by calling ​::​operator new() ([support.dynamic]).
4
#
Storage allocated directly with these functions is implicitly declared reachable (see [basic.stc.dynamic.safety]) on allocation, ceases to be declared reachable on deallocation, and need not cease to be declared reachable as the result of an undeclare_­reachable() call.
[ Note
:
This allows existing C libraries to remain unaffected by restrictions on pointers that are not safely derived, at the expense of providing far fewer garbage collection and leak detection options for malloc()-allocated objects.
It also allows malloc() to be implemented with a separate allocation arena, bypassing the normal declare_­reachable() implementation.
The above functions should never intentionally be used as a replacement for declare_­reachable(), and newly written code is strongly encouraged to treat memory allocated with these functions as though it were allocated with operator new.

23.11 Smart pointers [smartptr]

23.11.1 Class template unique_­ptr [unique.ptr]

1
#
A unique pointer is an object that owns another object and manages that other object through a pointer.
More precisely, a unique pointer is an object u that stores a pointer to a second object p and will dispose of p when u is itself destroyed (e.g., when leaving block scope ([stmt.dcl])).
In this context, u is said to own p.
2
#
The mechanism by which u disposes of p is known as p's associated deleter, a function object whose correct invocation results in p's appropriate disposition (typically its deletion).
3
#
Let the notation u.p denote the pointer stored by u, and let u.d denote the associated deleter.
Upon request, u can reset (replace) u.p and u.d with another pointer and deleter, but must properly dispose of its owned object via the associated deleter before such replacement is considered completed.
4
#
Additionally, u can, upon request, transfer ownership to another unique pointer u2.
Upon completion of such a transfer, the following postconditions hold:
  • (4.1)
    u2.p is equal to the pre-transfer u.p,
  • (4.2)
    u.p is equal to nullptr, and
  • (4.3)
    if the pre-transfer u.d maintained state, such state has been transferred to u2.d.
As in the case of a reset, u2 must properly dispose of its pre-transfer owned object via the pre-transfer associated deleter before the ownership transfer is considered complete.
[ Note
:
A deleter's state need never be copied, only moved or swapped as ownership is transferred.
— end note
 ]
5
#
Each object of a type U instantiated from the unique_­ptr template specified in this subclause has the strict ownership semantics, specified above, of a unique pointer.
In partial satisfaction of these semantics, each such U is MoveConstructible and MoveAssignable, but is not CopyConstructible nor CopyAssignable.
The template parameter T of unique_­ptr may be an incomplete type.
6
#
[ Note
:
The uses of unique_­ptr include providing exception safety for dynamically allocated memory, passing ownership of dynamically allocated memory to a function, and returning dynamically allocated memory from a function.

In the constructor definitions below, enables shared_­from_­this with p, for a pointer p of type Y*, means that if Y has an unambiguous and accessible base class that is a specialization of enable_­shared_­from_­this ([util.smartptr.enab]), then remove_­cv_­t<Y>* shall be implicitly convertible to T* and the constructor evaluates the statement: 
if (p != nullptr && p->weak_this.expired())
  p->weak_this = shared_ptr<remove_cv_t<Y>>(*this, const_cast<remove_cv_t<Y>*>(p));
The assignment to the weak_­this member is not atomic and conflicts with any potentially concurrent access to the same object ([intro.multithread]).

Effects: Constructs an empty shared_­ptr object.
3
#
Postconditions: use_­count() == 0 && get() == nullptr.

4
#
Requires: Y shall be a complete type.
The expression delete[] p, when T is an array type, or delete p, when T is not an array type, shall have well-defined behavior, and shall not throw exceptions.
5
#
Effects: When T is not an array type, constructs a shared_­ptr object that owns the pointer p.
Otherwise, constructs a shared_­ptr that owns p and a deleter of an unspecified type that calls delete[] p.
When T is not an array type, enables shared_­from_­this with p.
If an exception is thrown, delete p is called when T is not an array type, delete[] p otherwise.

#
Postconditions: use_­count() == 1 && get() == p.

Throws: bad_­alloc, or an implementation-defined exception when a resource other than memory could not be obtained.
8
#
Remarks: When T is an array type, this constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless the expression delete[] p is well-formed and either T is U[N] and Y(*)[N] is convertible to T*, or T is U[] and Y(*)[] is convertible to T*.

The expression d(p) shall have well-defined behavior and shall not throw exceptions.
A shall be an allocator ([allocator.requirements]).

#
Effects: Constructs a shared_­ptr object that owns the object p and the deleter d.
When T is not an array type, the first and second constructors enable shared_­from_­this with p.
The second and fourth constructors shall use a copy of a to allocate memory for internal use.
If an exception is thrown, d(p) is called.

~shared_ptr();

#
Effects:
  • (1.1)
    If *this is empty or shares ownership with another shared_­ptr instance (use_­count() > 1), there are no side effects.
  • (1.2)
    Otherwise, if *this owns an object p and a deleter d, d(p) is called.
  • (1.3)
    Otherwise, *this owns a pointer p, and delete p is called.

#
[ Note
:
Since the destruction of *this decreases the number of instances that share ownership with *this by one, after *this has been destroyed all shared_­ptr instances that shared ownership with *this will report a use_­count() that is one less than its previous value.

23.12.5 Pool resource classes [mem.res.pool]

23.12.5.1 Classes synchronized_­pool_­resource and unsynchronized_­pool_­resource [mem.res.pool.overview]

1
#
The synchronized_­pool_­resource and unsynchronized_­pool_­resource classes (collectively called pool resource classes) are general-purpose memory resources having the following qualities:
  • (1.1)
    Each resource frees its allocated memory on destruction, even if deallocate has not been called for some of the allocated blocks.
  • (1.2)
    A pool resource consists of a collection of pools, serving requests for different block sizes.
    Each individual pool manages a collection of chunks that are in turn divided into blocks of uniform size, returned via calls to do_­allocate.
    Each call to do_­allocate(size, alignment) is dispatched to the pool serving the smallest blocks accommodating at least size bytes.
  • (1.3)
    When a particular pool is exhausted, allocating a block from that pool results in the allocation of an additional chunk of memory from the upstream allocator (supplied at construction), thus replenishing the pool.
    With each successive replenishment, the chunk size obtained increases geometrically.
    [ Note
    :
    By allocating memory in chunks, the pooling strategy increases the chance that consecutive allocations will be close together in memory.
    — end note
     ]
  • (1.4)
    Allocation requests that exceed the largest block size of any pool are fulfilled directly from the upstream allocator.
  • (1.5)
    A pool_­options struct may be passed to the pool resource constructors to tune the largest block size and the maximum chunk size.
2
#
A synchronized_­pool_­resource may be accessed from multiple threads without external synchronization and may have thread-specific pools to reduce synchronization costs.
An unsynchronized_­pool_­resource class may not be accessed from multiple threads simultaneously and thus avoids the cost of synchronization entirely in single-threaded applications.

The members of pool_­options comprise a set of constructor options for pool resources.
The effect of each option on the pool resource behavior is described below:
🔗
size_t max_blocks_per_chunk;
2
#
The maximum number of blocks that will be allocated at once from the upstream memory resource ([mem.res.monotonic.buffer]) to replenish a pool.
If the value of max_­blocks_­per_­chunk is zero or is greater than an implementation-defined limit, that limit is used instead.
The implementation may choose to use a smaller value than is specified in this field and may use different values for different pools.
🔗
size_t largest_required_pool_block;
3
#
The largest allocation size that is required to be fulfilled using the pooling mechanism.
Attempts to allocate a single block larger than this threshold will be allocated directly from the upstream memory resource.
If largest_­required_­pool_­block is zero or is greater than an implementation-defined limit, that limit is used instead.
The implementation may choose a pass-through threshold larger than specified in this field.

23.12.6 Class monotonic_­buffer_­resource [mem.res.monotonic.buffer]

1
#
A monotonic_­buffer_­resource is a special-purpose memory resource intended for very fast memory allocations in situations where memory is used to build up a few objects and then is released all at once when the memory resource object is destroyed.
It has the following qualities:
  • (1.1)
    A call to deallocate has no effect, thus the amount of memory consumed increases monotonically until the resource is destroyed.
  • (1.2)
    The program can supply an initial buffer, which the allocator uses to satisfy memory requests.
  • (1.3)
    When the initial buffer (if any) is exhausted, it obtains additional buffers from an upstream memory resource supplied at construction.
    Each additional buffer is larger than the previous one, following a geometric progression.
  • (1.4)
    It is intended for access from one thread of control at a time.
    Specifically, calls to allocate and deallocate do not synchronize with one another.
  • (1.5)
    It frees the allocated memory on destruction, even if deallocate has not been called for some of the allocated blocks.

#
The class template scoped_­allocator_­adaptor is an allocator template that specifies the memory resource (the outer allocator) to be used by a container (as any other allocator does) and also specifies an inner allocator resource to be passed to the constructor of every element within the container.
This adaptor is instantiated with one outer and zero or more inner allocator types.
If instantiated with only one allocator type, the inner allocator becomes the scoped_­allocator_­adaptor itself, thus using the same allocator resource for the container and every element within the container and, if the elements themselves are containers, each of their elements recursively.
If instantiated with more than one allocator, the first allocator is the outer allocator for use by the container, the second allocator is passed to the constructors of the container's elements, and, if the elements themselves are containers, the third allocator is passed to the elements' elements, and so on.
If containers are nested to a depth greater than the number of allocators, the last allocator is used repeatedly, as in the single-allocator case, for any remaining recursions.
[ Note
:
The scoped_­allocator_­adaptor is derived from the outer allocator type so it can be substituted for the outer allocator type in most expressions.

1
#
A function object type is an object type ([basic.types]) that can be the type of the postfix-expression in a function call ([expr.call], [over.match.call]).222
A function object is an object of a function object type.
In the places where one would expect to pass a pointer to a function to an algorithmic template (Clause [algorithms]), the interface is specified to accept a function object.
This not only makes algorithmic templates work with pointers to functions, but also enables them to work with arbitrary function objects.
222)
Such a type is a function pointer or a class type which has a member operator() or a class type which has a conversion to a pointer to function.

23.14.2 Definitions [func.def]

1
#
The following definitions apply to this Clause:
2
#
A call signature is the name of a return type followed by a parenthesized comma-separated list of zero or more argument types.
3
#
A callable type is a function object type ([function.objects]) or a pointer to member.
4
#
A callable object is an object of a callable type.
5
#
A call wrapper type is a type that holds a callable object and supports a call operation that forwards to that object.
6
#
A call wrapper is an object of a call wrapper type.
7
#
A target object is the callable object held by a call wrapper.

23.14.3 Requirements [func.require]

1
#
Define INVOKE(f, t1, t2, ..., tN) as follows:
  • (1.1)
    (t1.*f)(t2, ..., tN) when f is a pointer to a member function of a class T and is_­base_­of_­v<T, decay_­t<decltype(t1)>> is true;
  • (1.2)
    (t1.get().*f)(t2, ..., tN) when f is a pointer to a member function of a class T and decay_­t<decltype(t1)> is a specialization of reference_­wrapper;
  • (1.3)
    ((*t1).*f)(t2, ..., tN) when f is a pointer to a member function of a class T and t1 does not satisfy the previous two items;
  • (1.4)
    t1.*f when N == 1 and f is a pointer to data member of a class T and is_­base_­of_­v<T, decay_­t<decltype(t1)>> is true;
  • (1.5)
    t1.get().*f when N == 1 and f is a pointer to data member of a class T and decay_­t<decltype(t1)> is a specialization of reference_­wrapper;
  • (1.6)
    (*t1).*f when N == 1 and f is a pointer to data member of a class T and t1 does not satisfy the previous two items;
  • (1.7)
    f(t1, t2, ..., tN) in all other cases.
2
#
Define INVOKE<R>(f, t1, t2, ..., tN) as static_­cast<void>(INVOKE(f, t1, t2, ..., tN)) if R is cv void, otherwise INVOKE(f, t1, t2, ..., tN) implicitly converted to R.
3
#
Every call wrapper ([func.def]) shall be MoveConstructible.
A forwarding call wrapper is a call wrapper that can be called with an arbitrary argument list and delivers the arguments to the wrapped callable object as references.
This forwarding step shall ensure that rvalue arguments are delivered as rvalue references and lvalue arguments are delivered as lvalue references.
A simple call wrapper is a forwarding call wrapper that is CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable and whose copy constructor, move constructor, and assignment operator do not throw exceptions.
[ Note
:
In a typical implementation forwarding call wrappers have an overloaded function call operator of the form
template<class... UnBoundArgs>
R operator()(UnBoundArgs&&... unbound_args) cv-qual;

The function class template provides polymorphic wrappers that generalize the notion of a function pointer.
Wrappers can store, copy, and call arbitrary callable objects ([func.def]), given a call signature ([func.def]), allowing functions to be first-class objects.

#
A callable type ([func.def]) F is Lvalue-Callable for argument types ArgTypes and return type R if the expression INVOKE<R>(declval<F&>(), declval<ArgTypes>()...), considered as an unevaluated operand (Clause [expr]), is well formed ([func.require]).

boyer_moore_horspool_searcher(RandomAccessIterator1 pat_first, RandomAccessIterator1 pat_last, Hash hf = Hash(), BinaryPredicate pred = BinaryPredicate());
1
#
Requires: The value type of RandomAccessIterator1 shall meet the DefaultConstructible, CopyConstructible, and CopyAssignable requirements.
2
#
Requires: For any two values A and B of the type iterator_­traits<RandomAccessIterator1>​::​value_­type, if pred(A, B) == true, then hf(A) == hf(B) shall be true.
3
#
Effects: Constructs a boyer_­moore_­horspool_­searcher object, initializing pat_­first_­ with pat_­first, pat_­last_­ with pat_­last, hash_­ with hf, and pred_­ with pred.
4
#
Throws: Any exception thrown by the copy constructor of RandomAccessIterator1, or by the default constructor, copy constructor, or the copy assignment operator of the value type of RandomAccessIterator1 or the copy constructor or operator() of BinaryPredicate or Hash.
May throw bad_­alloc if additional memory needed for internal data structures cannot be allocated.
🔗
template <class RandomAccessIterator2> pair<RandomAccessIterator2, RandomAccessIterator2> operator()(RandomAccessIterator2 first, RandomAccessIterator2 last) const;
5
#
Requires: RandomAccessIterator1 and RandomAccessIterator2 shall have the same value type.
6
#
Effects: Finds a subsequence of equal values in a sequence.
7
#
Returns: A pair of iterators i and j such that
  • (7.1)
    i is the first iterator i in the range [first, last - (pat_­last_­ - pat_­first_­)) such that for every non-negative integer n less than pat_­last_­ - pat_­first_­ the following condition holds: pred(*(i + n), *(pat_­first_­ + n)) != false, and
  • (7.2)
    j == next(i, distance(pat_­first_­, pat_­last_­)).
Returns make_­pair(first, first) if [pat_­first_­, pat_­last_­) is empty, otherwise returns make_­pair(last, last) if no such iterator is found.
8
#
Complexity: At most (last - first) * (pat_­last_­ - pat_­first_­) applications of the predicate.

23.14.15 Class template hash [unord.hash]

1
#
The unordered associative containers defined in [unord] use specializations of the class template hash ([functional.syn]) as the default hash function.
2
#
Each specialization of hash is either enabled or disabled, as described below.
[ Note
:
Enabled specializations meet the requirements of Hash, and disabled specializations do not.
— end note
 ]
Each header that declares the template hash provides enabled specializations of hash for nullptr_­t and all cv-unqualified arithmetic, enumeration, and pointer types.
For any type Key for which neither the library nor the user provides an explicit or partial specialization of the class template hash, hash<Key> is disabled.
3
#
If the library provides an explicit or partial specialization of hash<Key>, that specialization is enabled except as noted otherwise, and its member functions are noexcept except as noted otherwise.
4
#
If H is a disabled specialization of hash, these values are false: is_­default_­constructible_­v<H>, is_­copy_­constructible_­v<H>, is_­move_­constructible_­v<H>, is_­copy_­assignable_­v<H>, and is_­move_­assignable_­v<H>.
Disabled specializations of hash are not function object types ([function.objects]).
[ Note
:
This means that the specialization of hash exists, but any attempts to use it as a Hash will be ill-formed.
— end note
 ]
5
#
An enabled specialization hash<Key> will:
  • (5.1)
    satisfy the Hash requirements ([hash.requirements]), with Key as the function call argument type, the DefaultConstructible requirements (Table 22), the CopyAssignable requirements (Table 26),
  • (5.2)
    be swappable ([swappable.requirements]) for lvalues,
  • (5.3)
    satisfy the requirement that if k1 == k2 is true, h(k1) == h(k2) is also true, where h is an object of type hash<Key> and k1 and k2 are objects of type Key;
  • (5.4)
    satisfy the requirement that the expression h(k), where h is an object of type hash<Key> and k is an object of type Key, shall not throw an exception unless hash<Key> is a user-defined specialization that depends on at least one user-defined type.

23.15 Metaprogramming and type traits [meta]

1
#
This subclause describes components used by C++ programs, particularly in templates, to support the widest possible range of types, optimise template code usage, detect type related user errors, and perform type inference and transformation at compile time.
It includes type classification traits, type property inspection traits, and type transformations.
The type classification traits describe a complete taxonomy of all possible C++ types, and state where in that taxonomy a given type belongs.
The type property inspection traits allow important characteristics of types or of combinations of types to be inspected.
The type transformations allow certain properties of types to be manipulated.
2
#
All functions specified in this subclause are signal-safe ([csignal.syn]).

23.15.1 Requirements [meta.rqmts]

1
#
A UnaryTypeTrait describes a property of a type.
It shall be a class template that takes one template type argument and, optionally, additional arguments that help define the property being described.
It shall be DefaultConstructible, CopyConstructible, and publicly and unambiguously derived, directly or indirectly, from its base characteristic, which is a specialization of the template integral_­constant ([meta.help]), with the arguments to the template integral_­constant determined by the requirements for the particular property being described.
The member names of the base characteristic shall not be hidden and shall be unambiguously available in the UnaryTypeTrait.
2
#
A BinaryTypeTrait describes a relationship between two types.
It shall be a class template that takes two template type arguments and, optionally, additional arguments that help define the relationship being described.
It shall be DefaultConstructible, CopyConstructible, and publicly and unambiguously derived, directly or indirectly, from its base characteristic, which is a specialization of the template integral_­constant ([meta.help]), with the arguments to the template integral_­constant determined by the requirements for the particular relationship being described.
The member names of the base characteristic shall not be hidden and shall be unambiguously available in the BinaryTypeTrait.
3
#
A TransformationTrait modifies a property of a type.
It shall be a class template that takes one template type argument and, optionally, additional arguments that help define the modification.
It shall define a publicly accessible nested type named type, which shall be a synonym for the modified type.

The class template integral_­constant, alias template bool_­constant, and its associated typedef-names true_­type and false_­type are used as base classes to define the interface for various type traits.

23.15.4 Unary type traits [meta.unary]

1
#
This subclause contains templates that may be used to query the properties of a type at compile time.
2
#
Each of these templates shall be a UnaryTypeTrait ([meta.rqmts]) with a base characteristic of true_­type if the corresponding condition is true, otherwise false_­type.

23.15.4.1 Primary type categories [meta.unary.cat]

1
#
The primary type categories correspond to the descriptions given in section [basic.types] of the C++ standard.

template <size_­t Len,

struct aligned_­storage;
The value of default-alignment shall be the most stringent alignment requirement for any C++ object type whose size is no greater than Len ([basic.types]).
The member typedef type shall be a POD type suitable for use as uninitialized storage for any object whose size is at most Len and whose alignment is a divisor of Align.

Requires: Len shall not be zero.
Align shall be equal to alignof(T) for some type T or to default-alignment.
template <size_­t Len,
class... Types>
struct aligned_­union;
The member typedef type shall be a POD type suitable for use as uninitialized storage for any object whose type is listed in Types; its size shall be at least Len.
The static member alignment_­value shall be an integral constant of type size_­t whose value is the strictest alignment of all types listed in Types.

Requires: At least one type is provided.
template <class T>
struct decay;
Let U be remove_­reference_­t<T>.
If is_­array_­v<U> is true, the member typedef type shall equal remove_­extent_­t<U>*.
If is_­function_­v<U> is true, the member typedef type shall equal add_­pointer_­t<U>.
Otherwise the member typedef type equals remove_­cv_­t<U>.
[ Note
:
This behavior is similar to the lvalue-to-rvalue ([conv.lval]), array-to-pointer ([conv.array]), and function-to-pointer ([conv.func]) conversions applied when an lvalue expression is used as an rvalue, but also strips cv-qualifiers from class types in order to more closely model by-value argument passing.

If B is false, the member typedef type shall equal F.
template <class... T> struct common_­type;
Unless this trait is specialized (as specified in Note B, below), the member type shall be defined or omitted as specified in Note A, below.
If it is omitted, there shall be no member type.
Each type in the parameter pack T shall be complete, cv void, or an array of unknown bound.
template <class T>
struct underlying_­type;
The member typedef type names the underlying type of T.

Requires: T shall be a complete enumeration type ([dcl.enum])
template <class Fn,

struct invoke_­result;
If the expression INVOKE(declval<Fn>(), declval<ArgTypes>()...) is well formed when treated as an unevaluated operand (Clause [expr]), the member typedef type names the type decltype(INVOKE(declval<Fn>(), declval<ArgTypes>()...)); otherwise, there shall be no member type.
Access checking is performed as if in a context unrelated to Fn and ArgTypes.
Only the validity of the immediate context of the expression is considered.
[ Note
:
The compilation of the expression can result in side effects such as the instantiation of class template specializations and function template specializations, the generation of implicitly-defined functions, and so on.
Such side effects are not in the “immediate context” and can result in the program being ill-formed.

Note A: For the common_­type trait applied to a parameter pack T of types, the member type shall be either defined or not present as follows:
  • (3.1)
    If sizeof...(T) is zero, there shall be no member type.
  • (3.2)
    If sizeof...(T) is one, let T0 denote the sole type constituting the pack T.

    If sizeof...(T) is two, let the first and second types constituting T be denoted by T1 and T2, respectively, and let D1 and D2 denote the same types as decay_­t<T1> and decay_­t<T2>, respectively.
    • (3.3.1)
      If is_­same_­v<T1, D1> is false or is_­same_­v<T2, D2> is false, let C denote the same type, if any, as common_­type_­t<D1, D2>.
    • (3.3.2)
      Otherwise, let C denote the same type, if any, as 
      decay_t<decltype(false ? declval<D1>() : declval<D2>())>
      [ Note
      :
      This will not apply if there is a specialization common_­type<D1, D2>.
      — end note
       ]
    In either case, the member typedef-name type shall denote the same type, if any, as C.
    Otherwise, there shall be no member type.
  • (3.4)
    If sizeof...(T) is greater than two, let T1, T2, and R, respectively, denote the first, second, and (pack of) remaining types constituting T.
    Let C denote the same type, if any, as common_­type_­t<T1, T2>.
    If there is such a type C, the member typedef-name type shall denote the same type, if any, as common_­type_­t<C, R...>.
    Otherwise, there shall be no member type.

#
Note B: Notwithstanding the provisions of [meta.type.synop], and pursuant to [namespace.std], a program may specialize common_­type<T1, T2> for types T1 and T2 such that is_­same_­v<T1, decay_­t<T1>> and is_­same_­v<T2, decay_­t<T2>> are each true.
[ Note
:
Such specializations are needed when only explicit conversions are desired between the template arguments.
— end note
 ]
Such a specialization need not have a member named type, but if it does, that member shall be a typedef-name for an accessible and unambiguous cv-unqualified non-reference type C to which each of the types T1 and T2 is explicitly convertible.
Moreover, common_­type_­t<T1, T2> shall denote the same type, if any, as does common_­type_­t<T2, T1>.
No diagnostic is required for a violation of this Note's rules.

#
Every template type argument for which Bi​::​value is instantiated shall be usable as a base class and shall have a member value which is convertible to bool, is not hidden, and is unambiguously available in the type.

The specialization conjunction<B1, ..., BN> has a public and unambiguous base that is either
  • (5.1)
    the first type Bi in the list true_­type, B1, ..., BN for which bool(Bi​::​value) is false, or

23.17.3 Clock requirements [time.clock.req]

1
#
A clock is a bundle consisting of a duration, a time_­point, and a function now() to get the current time_­point.
The origin of the clock's time_­point is referred to as the clock's epoch.
A clock shall meet the requirements in Table 47.
2
#
In Table 47 C1 and C2 denote clock types.
t1 and t2 are values returned by C1​::​now() where the call returning t1 happens before ([intro.multithread]) the call returning t2 and both of these calls occur before C1​::​time_­point​::​max().
[ Note
:
This means C1 did not wrap around between t1 and t2.

C1 and C2 shall refer to the same epoch.
C1​::​is_­steady
const bool
true if t1 <= t2 is always true and the time between clock ticks is constant, otherwise false.
C1​::​now()
C1​::​time_­point
Returns a time_­point object representing the current point in time.

#
[ Note
:
The relative difference in durations between those reported by a given clock and the SI definition is a measure of the quality of implementation.

A type TC meets the TrivialClock requirements if:
  • (4.1)
    TC satisfies the Clock requirements ([time.clock.req]),
  • (4.2)
    the types TC​::​rep, TC​::​duration, and TC​::​time_­point satisfy the requirements of EqualityComparable (Table 20), LessThanComparable (Table 21), DefaultConstructible (Table 22), CopyConstructible (Table 24), CopyAssignable (Table 26), Destructible (Table 27), and the requirements of numeric types ([numeric.requirements]).
    [ Note
    :
    This means, in particular, that operations on these types will not throw exceptions.
    — end note
     ]
  • (4.3)
    lvalues of the types TC​::​rep, TC​::​duration, and TC​::​time_­point are swappable ([swappable.requirements]),

23.17.4 Time-related traits [time.traits]

23.17.4.1 treat_­as_­floating_­point [time.traits.is_fp]

🔗
template <class Rep> struct treat_as_floating_point : is_floating_point<Rep> { };
1
#
The duration template uses the treat_­as_­floating_­point trait to help determine if a duration object can be converted to another duration with a different tick period.
If treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep> is true, then implicit conversions are allowed among durations.
Otherwise, the implicit convertibility depends on the tick periods of the durations.
[ Note
:
The intention of this trait is to indicate whether a given class behaves like a floating-point type, and thus allows division of one value by another with acceptable loss of precision.
If treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep> is false, Rep will be treated as if it behaved like an integral type for the purpose of these conversions.
— end note
 ]

23.17.4.2 duration_­values [time.traits.duration_values]

🔗
template <class Rep> struct duration_values { public: static constexpr Rep zero(); static constexpr Rep min(); static constexpr Rep max(); };
1
#
The duration template uses the duration_­values trait to construct special values of the durations representation (Rep).
This is done because the representation might be a class type with behavior which requires some other implementation to return these special values.
In that case, the author of that class type should specialize duration_­values to return the indicated values.
🔗
static constexpr Rep zero();
2
#
Returns: Rep(0).
[ Note
:
Rep(0) is specified instead of Rep() because Rep() may have some other meaning, such as an uninitialized value.
— end note
 ]
3
#
Remarks: The value returned shall be the additive identity.
🔗
static constexpr Rep min();
4
#
Returns: numeric_­limits<Rep>​::​lowest().
5
#
Remarks: The value returned shall compare less than or equal to zero().
🔗
static constexpr Rep max();
6
#
Returns: numeric_­limits<Rep>​::​max().
7
#
Remarks: The value returned shall compare greater than zero().

23.17.4.3 Specializations of common_­type [time.traits.specializations]

🔗
template <class Rep1, class Period1, class Rep2, class Period2> struct common_type<chrono::duration<Rep1, Period1>, chrono::duration<Rep2, Period2>> { using type = chrono::duration<common_type_t<Rep1, Rep2>, see below>; };
1
#
The period of the duration indicated by this specialization of common_­type shall be the greatest common divisor of Period1 and Period2.
[ Note
:
This can be computed by forming a ratio of the greatest common divisor of Period1​::​num and Period2​::​num and the least common multiple of Period1​::​den and Period2​::​den.
— end note
 ]
2
#
[ Note
:
The typedef name type is a synonym for the duration with the largest tick period possible where both duration arguments will convert to it without requiring a division operation.
The representation of this type is intended to be able to hold any value resulting from this conversion with no truncation error, although floating-point durations may have round-off errors.
— end note
 ]
🔗
template <class Clock, class Duration1, class Duration2> struct common_type<chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration1>, chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration2>> { using type = chrono::time_point<Clock, common_type_t<Duration1, Duration2>>; };
3
#
The common type of two time_­point types is a time_­point with the same clock as the two types and the common type of their two durations.

23.17.5 Class template duration [time.duration]

1
#
A duration type measures time between two points in time (time_­points).
A duration has a representation which holds a count of ticks and a tick period.
The tick period is the amount of time which occurs from one tick to the next, in units of seconds.
It is expressed as a rational constant using the template ratio.
template <class Rep, class Period = ratio<1>>
class duration {
public:
  using rep    = Rep;
  using period = typename Period::type;
private:
  rep rep_;  // exposition only
public:
  // [time.duration.cons], construct/copy/destroy
  constexpr duration() = default;
  template <class Rep2>
      constexpr explicit duration(const Rep2& r);
  template <class Rep2, class Period2>
     constexpr duration(const duration<Rep2, Period2>& d);
  ~duration() = default;
  duration(const duration&) = default;
  duration& operator=(const duration&) = default;

  // [time.duration.observer], observer
  constexpr rep count() const;

  // [time.duration.arithmetic], arithmetic
  constexpr common_type_t<duration> operator+() const;
  constexpr common_type_t<duration> operator-() const;
  constexpr duration& operator++();
  constexpr duration  operator++(int);
  constexpr duration& operator--();
  constexpr duration  operator--(int);

  constexpr duration& operator+=(const duration& d);
  constexpr duration& operator-=(const duration& d);

  constexpr duration& operator*=(const rep& rhs);
  constexpr duration& operator/=(const rep& rhs);
  constexpr duration& operator%=(const rep& rhs);
  constexpr duration& operator%=(const duration& rhs);

  // [time.duration.special], special values
  static constexpr duration zero();
  static constexpr duration min();
  static constexpr duration max();
};
2
#
Rep shall be an arithmetic type or a class emulating an arithmetic type.
If duration is instantiated with a duration type as the argument for the template parameter Rep, the program is ill-formed.
3
#
If Period is not a specialization of ratio, the program is ill-formed.
If Period​::​num is not positive, the program is ill-formed.
4
#
Members of duration shall not throw exceptions other than those thrown by the indicated operations on their representations.
5
#
The defaulted copy constructor of duration shall be a constexpr function if and only if the required initialization of the member rep_­ for copy and move, respectively, would satisfy the requirements for a constexpr function.
6
#
[ Example
: 
duration<long, ratio<60>> d0;       // holds a count of minutes using a long
duration<long long, milli> d1;      // holds a count of milliseconds using a long long
duration<double, ratio<1, 30>>  d2; // holds a count with a tick period of  of a second
                                    // (30 Hz) using a double

23.17.5.1 duration constructors [time.duration.cons]

🔗
template <class Rep2> constexpr explicit duration(const Rep2& r);

#
Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless Rep2 is implicitly convertible to rep and

    treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<rep> is true or
  • (1.2)
    treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep2> is false.
[ Example
: 
duration<int, milli> d(3);          // OK
duration<int, milli> d(3.5);        // error
— end example
 ]
2

3
#
Postconditions: count() == static_­cast<rep>(r).
🔗
template <class Rep2, class Period2> constexpr duration(const duration<Rep2, Period2>& d);
4

Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless no overflow is induced in the conversion and treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<rep> is true or both ratio_­divide<Period2, period>​::​den is 1 and treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep2> is false.
[ Note
:
This requirement prevents implicit truncation error when converting between integral-based duration types.
Such a construction could easily lead to confusion about the value of the duration.
— end note
 ]
[ Example
: 
duration<int, milli> ms(3);
duration<int, micro> us = ms;       // OK

[ Note
:
This function does not use any implicit conversions; all conversions are done with static_­cast.
It avoids multiplications and divisions when it is known at compile time that one or more arguments is 1.
Intermediate computations are carried out in the widest representation and only converted to the destination representation at the final step.

23.17.5.8 Suffixes for duration literals [time.duration.literals]

1
#
This section describes literal suffixes for constructing duration literals.
The suffixes h, min, s, ms, us, ns denote duration values of the corresponding types hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, and nanoseconds respectively if they are applied to integral literals.
2
#
If any of these suffixes are applied to a floating-point literal the result is a chrono​::​duration literal with an unspecified floating-point representation.
3
#
If any of these suffixes are applied to an integer literal and the resulting chrono​::​duration value cannot be represented in the result type because of overflow, the program is ill-formed.
4
#
[ Example
:
The following code shows some duration literals.
using namespace std::chrono_literals;
auto constexpr aday=24h;
auto constexpr lesson=45min;
auto constexpr halfanhour=0.5h;
— end example

:
The same suffix s is used for basic_­string but there is no conflict, since duration suffixes apply to numbers and string literal suffixes apply to character array literals.
