Working Draft, C++ Extensions for Library Fundamentals, Version 2

Note: this is an early draft. It’s known to be incomplet and incorrekt, and it has lots of bad formatting.

1

General

[general]
1.1

Scope

[general.scope]

This technical specification describes extensions to the C++ Standard Library (1.2). These extensions are classes and functions that are likely to be used widely within a program and/or on the interface boundaries between libraries written by different organizations.

This technical specification is non-normative. Some of the library components in this technical specification may be considered for standardization in a future version of C++, but they are not currently part of any C++ standard. Some of the components in this technical specification may never be standardized, and others may be standardized in a substantially changed form.

The goal of this technical specification is to build more widespread existing practice for an expanded C++ standard library. It gives advice on extensions to those vendors who wish to provide them.

1.2

Normative references

[general.references]

The following referenced document is indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

  • ISO/IEC 14882:2014, Programming Languages — C++

ISO/IEC 14882:— is herein called the C++ Standard. References to clauses within the C++ Standard are written as "C++14 §3.2". The library described in ISO/IEC 14882:— clauses 17–30 is herein called the C++ Standard Library.

Unless otherwise specified, the whole of the C++ Standard's Library introduction (C++14 §17) is included into this Technical Specification by reference.

1.3

Namespaces, headers, and modifications to standard classes

[general.namespaces]

Since the extensions described in this technical specification are experimental and not part of the C++ standard library, they should not be declared directly within namespace std. Unless otherwise specified, all components described in this technical specification either:

  • modify an existing interface in the C++ Standard Library in-place,
  • are declared in a namespace whose name appends ::experimental::fundamentals_v2 to a namespace defined in the C++ Standard Library, such as std or std::chrono, or
  • are declared in a subnamespace of a namespace described in the previous bullet, whose name is not the same as an existing subnamespace of namespace std.
[ Example: This TS does not define std::experimental::fundamentals_v2::chrono because the C++ Standard Library defines std::chrono. This TS does not define std::pmr::experimental::fundamentals_v2 because the C++ Standard Library does not define std::pmr. end example ]

Each header described in this technical specification shall import the contents of std::experimental::fundamentals_v2 into std::experimental as if by

namespace std {
  namespace experimental {
    inline namespace fundamentals_v2 {}
  }
}

This technical specification also describes some experimental modifications to existing interfaces in the C++ Standard Library. These modifications are described by quoting the affected parts of the standard and using underlining to represent added text and strike-through to represent deleted text.

Unless otherwise specified, references to other entities described in this technical specification are assumed to be qualified with std::experimental::fundamentals_v2::, and references to entities described in the standard are assumed to be qualified with std::.

Extensions that are expected to eventually be added to an existing header <meow> are provided inside the <experimental/meow> header, which shall include the standard contents of <meow> as if by

#include <meow>

New headers are also provided in the <experimental/> directory, but without such an #include.

1.4

Terms and definitions

[general.defns]

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in the C++ Standard and the following apply.

1.4.1 [general.defns.direct-non-list-init]
direct-non-list-initialization
A direct-initialization that is not list-initialization.
1.5

Future plans (Informative)

[general.plans]

This section describes tentative plans for future versions of this technical specification and plans for moving content into future versions of the C++ Standard.

The C++ committee intends to release a new version of this technical specification approximately every year, containing the library extensions we hope to add to a near-future version of the C++ Standard. Future versions will define their contents in std::experimental::fundamentals_v3, std::experimental::fundamentals_v4, etc., with the most recent implemented version inlined into std::experimental.

When an extension defined in this or a future version of this technical specification represents enough existing practice, it will be moved into the next version of the C++ Standard by removing the experimental::fundamentals_vN segment of its namespace and by removing the experimental/ prefix from its header's path.

1.6

Feature-testing recommendations (Informative)

[general.feature.test]

For the sake of improved portability between partial implementations of various C++ standards, WG21 (the ISO technical committee for the C++ programming language) recommends that implementers and programmers follow the guidelines in this section concerning feature-test macros. [ Note: WG21's SD-6 makes similar recommendations for the C++ Standard itself. end note ]

Implementers who provide a new standard feature should define a macro with the recommended name, in the same circumstances under which the feature is available (for example, taking into account relevant command-line options), to indicate the presence of support for that feature. Implementers should define that macro with the value specified in the most recent version of this technical specification that they have implemented. The recommended macro name is "__cpp_lib_experimental_" followed by the string in the "Macro Name Suffix" column.

Programmers who wish to determine whether a feature is available in an implementation should base that determination on the presence of the header (determined with __has_include(<header/name>)) and the state of the macro with the recommended name. (The absence of a tested feature may result in a program with decreased functionality, or the relevant functionality may be provided in a different way. A program that strictly depends on support for a feature can just try to use the feature unconditionally; presumably, on an implementation lacking necessary support, translation will fail.)

Modifications to the C++ Standard Library

[mods]

Implementations that conform to this technical specification shall behave as if the modifications contained in this section are made to the C++ Standard.

2.1

Uses-allocator construction

[mods.allocator.uses]

The following changes to the uses_allocator trait and to the description of uses-allocator construction allow a memory_resource pointer act as an allocator in many circumstances. [ Note: Existing programs that use standard allocators would be unaffected by this change. end note ]

20.7.7 uses_allocator [allocator.uses]

20.7.7.1 uses_allocator trait [allocator.uses.trait]

template <class T, class Alloc> struct uses_allocator;
Remarks:
automatically detects whether T has a nested allocator_type that is convertible from Alloc. Meets the BinaryTypeTrait requirements (C++14 §20.10.1). The implementation shall provide a definition that is derived from true_type if a type T::allocator_type exists and either is_convertible_v<Alloc, T::allocator_type> != false or T::allocator_type is an alias for std::experimental::erased_type (3.1.2), 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:
  • the first argument of a constructor has type allocator_arg_t and the second argument has type Alloc or
  • the last argument of a constructor has type Alloc.

20.7.7.2 uses-allocator construction [allocator.uses.construction]

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, where Alloc either (1) meets the requirements of an allocator (C++14 §17.6.3.5), or (2) is a pointer type convertible to std::experimental::pmr::memory_resource* (8.5), according to the following rules:

General utilities library

[utilities]
3.1

Utility components

[utility]
3.1.1

Header <experimental/utility> synopsis

[utility.synop]
#include <utility>

namespace std {
namespace experimental {
inline namespace fundamentals_v2 {

  3.1.2, erased-type placeholder
  struct erased_type { };

} // namespace fundamentals_v2
} // namespace experimental
} // namespace std
3.1.2

Class erased_type

[utility.erased.type]
struct erased_type { };

The erased_type struct is an empty struct that serves as a placeholder for a type T in situations where the actual type T is determined at runtime. For example, the nested type, allocator_type, is an alias for erased_type in classes that use type-erased allocators (see 8.3).

3.2

Tuples

[tuple]
3.2.1

Header <experimental/tuple> synopsis

[header.tuple.synop]
#include <tuple>

namespace std {
namespace experimental {
inline namespace fundamentals_v2 {

  // See C++14 §20.4.2.5, tuple helper classes
  template <class T> constexpr size_t tuple_size_v
    = tuple_size<T>::value;

  // 3.2.2, Calling a function with a tuple of arguments
  template <class F, class Tuple>
  constexpr decltype(auto) apply(F&& f, Tuple&& t);

} // namespace fundamentals_v2
} // namespace experimental
} // namespace std
3.2.2

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(  // exposition only
    F&& f, Tuple&& t, index_sequence<I...>) {
  return INVOKE(std::forward<F>(f), std::get<I>(std::forward<Tuple>(t))...);
}

Equivalent to

return apply_impl(std::forward<F>(f), std::forward<Tuple>(t),
    make_index_sequence<tuple_size_v<decay_t<Tuple>>>{});

3.3.2

Other type transformations

[meta.trans.other]

This sub-clause contains templates that may be used to transform one type to another following some predefined rule.

Each of the templates in this subclause shall be a TransformationTrait (C++14 §20.10.1).

Within this section, define the invocation parameters of INVOKE(f, t1, t2, ..., tN) as follows, in which T1 is the possibly cv-qualified type of t1 and U1 denotes T1& if t1 is an lvalue or T1&& if t1 is an rvalue:

  • When f is a pointer to a member function of a class T the invocation parameters are U1 followed by the parameters of f matched by t2, ..., tN.
  • When N == 1 and f is a pointer to member data of a class T the invocation parameter is U1.
  • If f is a class object, the invocation parameters are the parameters matching t1, ..., tN of the best viable function (C++14 §13.3.3) for the arguments t1, ..., tN among the function call operators of f.
  • In all other cases, the invocation parameters are the parameters of f matching t1, ... tN.

In all of the above cases, if an argument tI matches the ellipsis in the function's parameter-declaration-clause, the corresponding invocation parameter is defined to be the result of applying the default argument promotions (C++14 §5.2.2) to tI.

[ Example: Assume S is defined as
struct S {
  int f(double const &) const;
  void operator()(int, int);
  void operator()(char const *, int i = 2, int j = 3);
  void operator()(...);
};
  • The invocation parameters of INVOKE(&S::f, S(), 3.5) are (S &&, double const &).
  • The invocation parameters of INVOKE(S(), 1, 2) are (int, int).
  • The invocation parameters of INVOKE(S(), "abc", 5) are (const char *, int). The defaulted parameter j does not correspond to an argument.
  • The invocation parameters of INVOKE(S(), locale(), 5) are (locale, int). Arguments corresponding to ellipsis maintain their types
end example ]
Table 3 — Other type transformations
TemplateConditionComments
template <class Fn, class... ArgTypes>
struct raw_invocation_type<Fn(ArgTypes...)>;
Fn and all types in the parameter pack ArgTypes shall be complete types, (possibly cv-qualified) void, or arrays of unknown bound. see below
template <class Fn, class... ArgTypes>
struct invocation_type<Fn(ArgTypes...)>;
Fn and all types in the parameter pack ArgTypes shall be complete types, (possibly cv-qualified) void, or arrays of unknown bound. see below

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. end note ]

The nested typedef raw_invocation_type<Fn(ArgTypes...)>::type shall be defined as follows. If the expression INVOKE(declval<Fn>(), declval<ArgTypes>()...) is ill-formed when treated as an unevaluated operand (C++14 §5), there shall be no member type. Otherwise:

  • Let R denote result_of_t<Fn(ArgTypes...)>.
  • Let the types Ti be the invocation parameters of INVOKE(declval<Fn>(), declval<ArgTypes>()...).
  • Then the member typedef type shall name the function type R(T1, T2, ...).

The nested typedef invocation_type<Fn(ArgTypes...)>::type shall be defined as follows. If raw_invocation_type<Fn(ArgTypes...)>::type does not exist, there shall be no member typedef type. Otherwise:

  • Let A1, A2, … denote ArgTypes...
  • Let R(T1, T2, …) denote raw_invocation_type_t<Fn(ArgTypes...)>
  • Then the member typedef type shall name the function type R(U1, U2, …) where Ui is decay_t<Ai> if declval<Ai>() is an rvalue otherwise Ti.

[ Example:
// archetypal helper alias for a copy assignment operation:

// plausible implementation for the is_assignable type trait:
template <class T>
  using is_copy_assignable = is_detected<copy_assign_t, T>;

// plausible implementation for an augmented is_assignable type trait
// that also checks the return type:
template <class T>
  using is_canonical_copy_assignable = is_detected_exact<T&, copy_assign_t, T>;

// archetypal helper alias for a particular type member:
template <class T>
  using diff_t = typename T::difference_type;

// alias the type member, if it exists, otherwise alias ptrdiff_t:
template <class Ptr>
  using difference_type = detected_or_t<ptrdiff_t, diff_t, Ptr>;

propagate_const requirements on T

[propagate_const.requirements]

T shall be an object pointer type or a class type for which decltype(*declval<T&>()) is an lvalue reference; otherwise the program is ill-formed.

If T is an array type, reference type, pointer to function type or pointer to (possibly cv-qualified) void, then the program is ill-formed.

[ Note: propagate_const<const int*> is well-formed end note ]

3.7.3.1

propagate_const requirements on class type T

[propagate_const.class_type_requirements]

If T is class type then it shall satisfy the following requirements. In this sub-clause t denotes a non-const lvalue of type T, ct is a const T& bound to t, element_type denotes an object type.

T and const T shall be contextually convertible to bool.

If T is implicitly convertible to element_type*, (element_type*)t == t.get() shall be true.

If const T is implicitly convertible to const element_type*, (const element_type*)ct == ct.get() shall be true.

Table 4 — Requirements on class types T
Expression Return type Pre-conditions Operational semantics
t.get() element_type*
ct.get() const element_type* or element_type* t.get() == ct.get().
*t element_type& t.get() != nullptr *t refers to the same object as *(t.get())
*ct const element_type& or element_type& ct.get() != nullptr *ct refers to the same object as *(ct.get())
t.operator->() element_type* t.get() != nullptr t.operator->() == t.get()
ct.operator->() const element_type* or element_type* ct.get() != nullptr ct.operator->() == ct.get()
(bool)t bool (bool)t is equivalent to t.get() != nullptr
(bool)ct bool (bool)ct is equivalent to ct.get() != nullptr

propagate_const constructors

[propagate_const.ctor]

[ Note: The following constructors are conditionally specified as explicit. This is typically implemented by declaring two such constructors, of which at most one participates in overload resolution. end note ]

template <class U>

function construct/copy/destroy

[func.wrap.func.con]

When a function constructor that takes a first argument of type allocator_arg_t is invoked, the second argument is treated as a type-erased allocator (8.3). If the constructor moves or makes a copy of a function object (C++14 §20.9), including an instance of the experimental::function class template, then that move or copy is performed by using-allocator construction with allocator get_memory_resource().

In the following descriptions, let ALLOCATOR_OF(f) be the allocator specified in the construction of function f, or allocator<char>() if no allocator was specified.

function& operator=(const function& f);
Effects:
function(allocator_arg, ALLOCATOR_OF(*this), f).swap(*this);
Returns:
*this
function& operator=(function&& f);
Effects:
function(allocator_arg, ALLOCATOR_OF(*this), std::move(f)).swap(*this);
Returns:
*this
function& operator=(nullptr_t) noexcept;
Effects:
If *this != nullptr, destroys the target of this.
Postconditions:
!(*this). The memory resource returned by get_memory_resource() after the assignment is equivalent to the memory resource before the assignment. [ Note: the address returned by get_memory_resource() might change end note ]
Returns:
*this
template<class F> function& operator=(F&& f);
Effects:
function(allocator_arg, ALLOCATOR_OF(*this), std::forward<F>(f)).swap(*this);
Returns:
*this
template<class F> function& operator=(reference_wrapper<F> f);
Effects:
function(allocator_arg, ALLOCATOR_OF(*this), f).swap(*this);
Returns:
*this
4.2.2

function modifiers

[func.wrap.func.mod]
void swap(function& other);
Requires:
this->get_memory_resource() == other->get_memory_resource().
Effects:
Interchanges the targets of *this and other.
Remarks:
The allocators of *this and other are not interchanged.

Searchers

[func.searchers]

This sub-clause provides function object types (C++14 §20.9) for operations that search for a sequence [pat_first, pat_last) in another sequence [first, last) that is provided to the object's function call operator. The first sequence (the pattern to be searched for) is provided to the object's constructor, and the second (the sequence to be searched) is provided to the function call operator.

Each specialization of a class template specified in this sub-clause 4.3 shall meet the CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable requirements. Template parameters named ForwardIterator, ForwardIterator1, ForwardIterator2, RandomAccessIterator, RandomAccessIterator1, RandomAccessIterator2, and BinaryPredicate of templates specified in this sub-clause 4.3 shall meet the same requirements and semantics as specified in C++14 §25.1. Template parameters named Hash shall meet the requirements as specified in C++14 §17.6.3.4.

The Boyer-Moore searcher implements the Boyer-Moore search algorithm. The Boyer-Moore-Horspool searcher implements the Boyer-Moore-Horspool search algorithm. In general, the Boyer-Moore searcher will use more memory and give better run-time performance than Boyer-Moore-Horspool

  • fd is an lvalue of type FD constructed from std::forward<F>(f),
  • fn is a forwarding call wrapper created as a result of not_fn(f),
Requires:
is_constructible<FD, F>::value shall be true. fd shall be a callable object (C++14 §20.9.1).

Optional objects

[optional]
5.1

In general

[optional.general]

This subclause describes class template optional that represents optional objects. An optional object for object types is an object that contains the storage for another object and manages the lifetime of this contained object, if any. The contained object may be initialized after the optional object has been initialized, and may be destroyed before the optional object has been destroyed. The initialization state of the contained object is tracked by the optional object.

};

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.

Member val is provided for exposition only. When an optional<T> object contains a value, val points to the contained value.

T shall be an object type and shall satisfy the requirements of Destructible (Table 24).

5.3.1

Constructors

[optional.object.ctor]
constexpr optional() noexcept;constexpr optional(nullopt_t) noexcept;
Postconditions:
*this does not contain a value.
Remarks:
No contained value is initialized. For every object type T these constructors shall be constexpr constructors (C++14 §7.1.5).
optional(const optional<T>& rhs);
Requires:
is_copy_constructible_v<T> is true.
Effects:
If rhs contains a value, initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the expression *rhs.
Postconditions:
bool(rhs) == bool(*this).
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
optional(optional<T>&& rhs) noexcept(see below);
Requires:
is_move_constructible_v<T> is true.
Effects:
If rhs contains a value, initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the expression std::move(*rhs). bool(rhs) is unchanged.
Postconditions:
bool(rhs) == bool(*this).
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
Remarks:
The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to:
is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<T>
constexpr optional(const T& v);
Requires:
is_copy_constructible_v<T> is true.
Effects:
Initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the expression v.
Postconditions:
*this contains a value.
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
Remarks:
If T's selected constructor is a constexpr constructor, this constructor shall be a constexpr constructor.
constexpr optional(T&& v);

Effects:
Initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the expression std::move(v).
Postconditions:
*this contains a value.
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
Remarks:
If T's selected constructor is a constexpr constructor, this constructor shall be a constexpr constructor.
template <class... Args> constexpr explicit optional(in_place_t, Args&&... args);
Requires:
is_constructible_v<T, Args&&...> is true.
Effects:
Initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the arguments std::forward<Args>(args)....
Postconditions:
*this contains a value.
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
Remarks:
If T's constructor selected for the initialization is a constexpr constructor, this constructor shall be a constexpr constructor.
template <class U, class... Args>
constexpr explicit optional(in_place_t, initializer_list<U> il, Args&&... args);
Requires:
is_constructible_v<T, initializer_list<U>&, Args&&...> is true.
Effects:
Initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the arguments il, std::forward<Args>(args)....
Postconditions:
*this contains a value.
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
Remarks:
The function shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_constructible_v<T, initializer_list<U>&, Args&&...> is true. If T's constructor selected for the initialization is a constexpr constructor, this constructor shall be a constexpr constructor.
5.3.2

Destructor

[optional.object.dtor]
~optional();
Effects:
If is_trivially_destructible_v<T> != true and *this contains a value, calls val->T::~T().
Remarks:
If is_trivially_destructible_v<T> == true then this destructor shall be a trivial destructor.
5.3.3

Assignment

[optional.object.assign]
optional<T>& operator=(nullopt_t) noexcept;
Effects:
If *this contains a value, calls val->T::~T() to destroy the contained value; otherwise no effect.
Returns:
*this.
Postconditions:
*this does not contain a value.
optional<T>& operator=(const optional<T>& rhs);
Requires:
is_copy_constructible_v<T> is true and is_copy_assignable_v<T> is true.

rhs does not contain a value destroys the contained value by calling val->T::~T() no effect
Returns:
*this.
Postconditions:
bool(rhs) == bool(*this).
Remarks:
If any exception is thrown, the result of the expression bool(*this) remains unchanged. If an exception is thrown during the call to T's copy constructor, no effect. If an exception is thrown during the call to T's copy assignment, the state of its contained value is as defined by the exception safety guarantee of T's copy assignment.
optional<T>& operator=(optional<T>&& rhs) noexcept(see below);
Requires:
is_move_constructible_v<T> is true and is_move_assignable_v<T> is true.

*this contains a value *this does not contain a value
rhs contains a value assigns std::move(*rhs) to the contained value initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with std::move(*rhs)
rhs does not contain a value destroys the contained value by calling val->T::~T() no effect
Returns:
*this.
Postconditions:
bool(rhs) == bool(*this).
Remarks:

The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to:

is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<T> && is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<T>

If any exception is thrown, the result of the expression bool(*this) remains unchanged. If an exception is thrown during the call to T's move constructor, the state of *rhs.val is determined by the exception safety guarantee of T's move constructor. If an exception is thrown during the call to T's move assignment, the state of *val and *rhs.val is determined by the exception safety guarantee of T's move assignment.

template <class U> optional<T>& operator=(U&& v);
Requires:
is_constructible_v<T, U> is true and is_assignable_v<T&, U> is true.
Effects:
If *this contains a value, assigns std::forward<U>(v) to the contained value; otherwise initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing object of type T with std::forward<U>(v).
Returns:
*this.
Postconditions:
*this contains a value.
Remarks:

If any exception is thrown, the result of the expression bool(*this) remains unchanged. If an exception is thrown during the call to T's constructor, the state of v is determined by the exception safety guarantee of T's constructor. If an exception is thrown during the call to T's assignment, the state of *val and v is determined by the exception safety guarantee of T's assignment.

The function shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_same_v<decay_t<U>, T> is true.

Notes:
The reason for providing such generic assignment and then constraining it so that effectively T == U is to guarantee that assignment of the form o = {} is unambiguous.
template <class... Args> void emplace(Args&&... args);
Requires:
is_constructible_v<T, Args&&...> is true.
Effects:
Calls *this = nullopt. Then initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the arguments std::forward<Args>(args)....
Postconditions:
*this contains a value.
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
Remarks:
If an exception is thrown during the call to T's constructor, *this does not contain a value, and the previous *val (if any) has been destroyed.
template <class U, class... Args> void emplace(initializer_list<U> il, Args&&... args);
Effects:
Calls *this = nullopt. Then initializes the contained value as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the arguments il, std::forward<Args>(args)....
Postconditions:
*this contains a value.
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
Remarks:

If an exception is thrown during the call to T's constructor, *this does not contain a value, and the previous *val (if any) has been destroyed.

The function shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_constructible_v<T, initializer_list<U>&, Args&&...> is true.

5.3.4

Swap

[optional.object.swap]
void swap(optional<T>& rhs) noexcept(see below);
Requires:
Lvalues of type T shall be swappable and is_move_constructible_v<T> is true.

Table 7 — optional::swap(optional&) effects
*this contains a value *this does not contain a value
rhs contains a value calls swap(*(*this), *rhs) initializes the contained value of *this as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the expression std::move(*rhs), followed by rhs.val->T::~T(); postcondition is that *this contains a value and rhs does not contain a value
rhs does not contain a value initializes the contained value of rhs as if direct-non-list-initializing an object of type T with the expression std::move(*(*this)), followed by val->T::~T(); postcondition is that *this does not contain a value and rhs contains a value no effect
Throws:
Any exceptions that the expressions in the Effects element throw.
Remarks:

The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to:

is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<T> && noexcept(swap(declval<T&>(), declval<T&>()))

If any exception is thrown, the results of the expressions bool(*this) and bool(rhs) remain unchanged. If an exception is thrown during the call to function swap the state of *val and *rhs.val is determined by the exception safety guarantee of swap for lvalues of T. If an exception is thrown during the call to T's move constructor, the state of *val and *rhs.val is determined by the exception safety guarantee of T's move constructor.

Returns:
*val.
Throws:
Nothing.
Remarks:

Remarks:
If is_copy_constructible_v<T> && is_convertible_v<U&&, T> is false, the program is ill-formed.
template <class U> T value_or(U&& v) &&;
Effects:
Equivalent to return bool(*this) ? std::move(**this) : static_cast<T>(std::forward<U>(v)).
Remarks:
If is_move_constructible_v<T> && is_convertible_v<U&&, T> is false, the program is ill-formed.
5.4

In-place construction

[optional.inplace]
struct in_place_t{};constexpr in_place_t in_place{};

The struct in_place_t is an empty structure type used as a unique type to disambiguate constructor and function overloading. Specifically, optional<T> has a constructor with in_place_t as the first parameter followed by a parameter pack; this indicates that T should be constructed in-place (as if by a call to a placement new expression) with the forwarded pack expansion as arguments for the initialization of T.

5.5

No-value state indicator

[optional.nullopt]
struct nullopt_t{see below};constexpr nullopt_t nullopt(unspecified);

The struct nullopt_t is an empty structure type used as a unique type to indicate the state of not containing a value for optional objects. In particular, optional<T> has a constructor with nullopt_t as a single argument; this indicates that an optional object not containing a value shall be constructed.

Type nullopt_t shall not have a default constructor. It shall be a literal type. Constant nullopt shall be initialized with an argument of literal type.

5.6

Class bad_optional_access

[optional.bad_optional_access]
class bad_optional_access : public logic_error {
public:
  bad_optional_access();
};

The class bad_optional_access defines the type of objects thrown as exceptions to report the situation where an attempt is made to access the value of an optional object that does not contain a value.

bad_optional_access();
Effects:
Constructs an object of class bad_optional_access.
Postconditions:
what() returns an implementation-defined NTBS.

Remarks:
Specializations of this function template, for which *x < *y is a core constant expression, shall be constexpr functions.
template <class T> constexpr bool operator>(const optional<T>& x, const optional<T>& y);
Returns:
y < x.

Class any

[any]

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. end note ]

6.2

Class bad_any_cast

[any.bad_any_cast]

Objects of type bad_any_cast are thrown by a failed any_cast.

6.3

Class any

[any.class]

An object of class any stores an instance of any type that satisfies the constructor requirements or is empty, and this is referred to as the state of the class any object. The stored instance is called the contained object. Two states are equivalent if they are either both empty or if both are not empty and if the contained objects are equivalent.

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

Implementations should avoid the use of dynamically allocated memory for a small contained object. [ Example: where the object constructed is holding only an int. end example ] Such small-object optimization shall only be applied to types T for which is_nothrow_move_constructible_v<T> is true.

6.3.1

any construct/destruct

[any.cons]
any() noexcept;
Postconditions:
this->empty()
any(const any& other);
Effects:
Constructs an object of type any with an equivalent state as other.
Throws:
Any exceptions arising from calling the selected constructor of the contained object.
any(any&& other) noexcept;
Effects:
Constructs an object of type any with a state equivalent to the original state of other.
Postconditions:
other is left in a valid but otherwise unspecified state.
template<class ValueType>
any(ValueType&& value);

Let T be equal to decay_t<ValueType>.

Requires:
T shall satisfy the CopyConstructible requirements. If is_copy_constructible_v<T> is false, the program is ill-formed.
Effects:
Constructs an object of type any that contains an object of type T direct-initialized with std::forward<ValueType>(value).
Remarks:
This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution if decay_t<ValueType> is the same type as any.
Throws:
Any exception thrown by the selected constructor of T.
~any();
Effects:
clear().
6.3.2

any assignments

[any.assign]
any& operator=(const any& rhs);
Effects:
any(rhs).swap(*this). No effects if an exception is thrown.
Returns:
*this
Throws:
Any exceptions arising from the copy constructor of the contained object.
any& operator=(any&& rhs) noexcept;
Effects:
any(std::move(rhs)).swap(*this).
Returns:

Postconditions:
The state of *this is equivalent to the original state of rhs and rhs is left in a valid but otherwise unspecified state.
template<class ValueType>
any& operator=(ValueType&& rhs);

Let T be equal to decay_t<ValueType>.

Requires:
T shall satisfy the CopyConstructible requirements. If is_copy_constructible_v<T> is false, the program is ill-formed.
Effects:

template<class ValueType>
ValueType any_cast(const any& operand);template<class ValueType>

ValueType any_cast(any&& operand);
Requires:

string_view

[string.view]

The class template basic_string_view describes an object that can refer to a constant contiguous sequence of char-like (C++14 §21.1) objects with the first element of the sequence at position zero. In the rest of this section, the type of the char-like objects held in a basic_string_view object is designated by charT.

[ Note: The library provides implicit conversions from const charT* and std::basic_string<charT, ...> to std::basic_string_view<charT, ...> so that user code can accept just std::basic_string_view<charT> as a non-templated parameter wherever a sequence of characters is expected. User-defined types should define their own implicit conversions to std::basic_string_view in order to interoperate with these functions. end note ]

The complexity of basic_string_view member functions is O(1) unless otherwise specified.

basic_string_view iterator support

[string.view.iterators]
typedef implementation-defined const_iterator;

A constant random-access iterator type such that, for a const_iterator it, if &*(it+N) is valid, then it is equal to (&*it)+N.

For a basic_string_view str, any operation that invalidates a pointer in the range [str.data(), str.data()+str.size()) invalidates pointers, iterators, and references returned from str's methods.

All requirements on container iterators (C++14 §23.2) apply to basic_string_view::const_iterator as well.

constexpr const_iterator begin() const noexcept;constexpr const_iterator cbegin() const noexcept;
Returns:
An iterator such that &*begin() == data_ if !empty(), or else an unspecified value such that [begin(), end()) is a valid range.
constexpr const_iterator end() const noexcept;constexpr const_iterator cend() const noexcept;
Returns:
begin() + size()
const_reverse_iterator rbegin() const noexcept;const_reverse_iterator crbegin() const noexcept;
Returns:
const_reverse_iterator(end()).
const_reverse_iterator rend() const noexcept;const_reverse_iterator crend() const noexcept;
Returns:

constexpr size_type length() const noexcept;
Returns:
size_.
constexpr size_type max_size() const noexcept;
Returns:
The largest possible number of char-like objects that can be referred to by a basic_string_view.
constexpr bool empty() const noexcept;
Returns:
size_ == 0.
7.6

basic_string_view element access

[string.view.access]
constexpr const_reference operator[](size_type pos) const;
Requires:
pos < size().
Returns:
data_[pos]
Throws:
Nothing.

[ Note: Unlike basic_string::operator[], basic_string_view::operator[](size()) has undefined behavior instead of returning charT(). end note ]

constexpr const_reference at(size_type pos) const;
Throws:
out_of_range if pos >= size().
Returns:
data_[pos].
constexpr const_reference front() const;
Requires:
!empty()
Returns:

Nothing.
constexpr const_reference back() const;
Requires:
!empty()
Returns:
data_[size() - 1].
Throws:
Nothing.
constexpr const_pointer data() const noexcept;
Returns:
data_

[ Note: Unlike basic_string::data() and string literals, data() may return a pointer to a buffer that is not null-terminated. Therefore it is typically a mistake to pass data() to a routine that takes just a const charT* and expects a null-terminated string. end note ]

Searching basic_string_view

[string.view.find]

This section specifies the basic_string_view member functions named find, rfind, find_first_of, find_last_of, find_first_not_of, and find_last_not_of.

Member functions in this section have complexity O(size() * str.size()) at worst, although implementations are encouraged to do better.

Each member function of the form

constexpr return-type fx1(const charT* s, size_type pos);

is equivalent to fx1(basic_string_view(s), pos).

Each member function of the form

constexpr return-type fx1(const charT* s, size_type pos, size_type n);

is equivalent to fx1(basic_string_view(s, n), pos).

Each member function of the form

constexpr return-type fx2(charT c, size_type pos);

is equivalent to fx2(basic_string_view(&c, 1), pos).

constexpr size_type find(basic_string_view str, size_type pos = 0) const noexcept;
Effects:
Determines the lowest position xpos, if possible, such that the following conditions obtain:
  • pos <= xpos
  • xpos + str.size() <= size()

basic_string_view non-member comparison functions

[string.view.comparison]

Let S be basic_string_view<charT, traits>, and sv be an instance of S. Implementations shall provide sufficient additional overloads marked constexpr and noexcept so that an object t with an implicit conversion to S can be compared according to Table 12.

sv == tsv == S(t)
t != svS(t) != sv
sv != tsv != S(t)

sv < tsv < S(t)
t > svS(t) > sv
sv > tsv > S(t)
t <= svS(t) <= sv
sv <= tsv <= S(t)
t >= svS(t) >= sv
sv >= tsv >= S(t)

For the purposes of subclause 8.2, a pointer type Y* is said to be compatible with a pointer type T* when either Y* is convertible to T* or Y is U[N] and T is U cv [].

8.2.1.1

shared_ptr constructors

[memory.smartptr.shared.const]
template<class Y> explicit shared_ptr(Y* p);
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 be well-formed, shall have well defined behavior, and shall not throw exceptions. When T is U[N], Y(*)[N] shall be convertible to T*; when T is U[], Y(*)[] shall be convertible to T*; otherwise, Y* shall be convertible to T*.
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.
Postconditions:
use_count() == 1 && get() == p.
Throws:
bad_alloc, or an implementation-defined exception when a resource other than memory could not be obtained.
Exception safety:
If an exception is thrown, delete p is called when T is not an array type, delete[] p otherwise.
template<class Y, class D> shared_ptr(Y* p, D d);template<class Y, class D, class A> shared_ptr(Y* p, D d, A a);template <class D> shared_ptr(nullptr_t p, D d);template <class D, class A> shared_ptr(nullptr_t p, D d, A a);
Requires:
D shall be CopyConstructible. The copy constructor and destructor of D shall not throw exceptions. The expression d(p) shall be well formed, shall have well defined behavior, and shall not throw exceptions. A shall be an allocator (C++14 §17.6.3.5). The copy constructor and destructor of A shall not throw exceptions. When T is U[N], Y(*)[N] shall be convertible to T*; when T is U[], Y(*)[] shall be convertible to T*; otherwise, Y* shall be convertible to T*.
Effects:
Constructs a shared_ptr object that owns the object p and the deleter d. The second and fourth constructors shall use a copy of a to allocate memory for internal use.
Postconditions:
use_count() == 1 && get() == p.
Throws:
bad_alloc, or an implementation-defined exception when a resource other than memory could not be obtained.
Exception safety:
If an exception is thrown, d(p) is called.
template<class Y> shared_ptr(const shared_ptr<Y>& r, element_type* p) noexcept;
Effects:
Constructs a shared_ptr instance that stores p and shares ownership with r.
Postconditions:
get() == p && use_count() == r.use_count()

[ Note: To avoid the possibility of a dangling pointer, the user of this constructor must ensure that p remains valid at least until the ownership group of r is destroyed. end note ]

[ Note: This constructor allows creation of an empty shared_ptr instance with a non-null stored pointer. end note ]

shared_ptr(const shared_ptr& r) noexcept;template<class Y> shared_ptr(const shared_ptr<Y>& r) noexcept;
Requires:
The second constructor shall not participate in the overload resolution unless Y* is compatible with T*.
Effects:
If r is empty, constructs an empty shared_ptr object; otherwise, constructs a shared_ptr object that shares ownership with r.
Postconditions:
get() == r.get() && use_count() == r.use_count().
shared_ptr(shared_ptr&& r) noexcept;template<class Y> shared_ptr(shared_ptr<Y>&& r) noexcept;
Remarks:
The second constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless Y* is compatible with T*.
Effects:
Move-constructs a shared_ptr instance from r.
Postconditions:
*this shall contain the old value of r. r shall be empty. r.get() == 0.
template<class Y> explicit shared_ptr(const weak_ptr<Y>& r);
Requires:
Y* shall be compatible with T*.
Effects:
Constructs a shared_ptr object that shares ownership with r and stores a copy of the pointer stored in r.
Postconditions:
use_count() == r.use_count().
Throws:
bad_weak_ptr when r.expired().
Exception safety:
If an exception is thrown, the constructor has no effect.
template <class Y, class D> shared_ptr(unique_ptr<Y, D>&& r);
Remarks:
This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless Y* is compatible with T*.
Effects:
Equivalent to shared_ptr(r.release(), r.get_deleter()) when D is not a reference type, otherwise shared_ptr(r.release(), ref(r.get_deleter())).
Exception safety:
If an exception is thrown, the constructor has no effect.

Type-erased allocator

[memory.type.erased.allocator]

A type-erased allocator is an allocator or memory resource, alloc, used to allocate internal data structures for an object X of type C, but where C is not dependent on the type of alloc. Once alloc has been supplied to X (typically as a constructor argument), alloc can be retrieved from X only as a pointer rptr of static type std::experimental::pmr::memory_resource* (8.5). The process by which rptr is computed from alloc depends on the type of alloc as described in Table 13:

Table 13 — Computed memory_resource for type-erased allocator
If the type of alloc is then the value of rptr is
non-existent — no alloc specified The value of experimental::pmr::get_default_resource() at the time of construction.
nullptr_t The value of experimental::pmr::get_default_resource() at the time of construction.
a pointer type convertible to pmr::memory_resource* static_cast<experimental::pmr::memory_resource*>(alloc)
pmr::polymorphic_allocator<U> alloc.resource()
any other type meeting the Allocator requirements (C++14 §17.6.3.5) a pointer to a value of type experimental::pmr::resource_adaptor<A> where A is the type of alloc. rptr remains valid only for the lifetime of X.
None of the above The program is ill-formed.

Additionally, class C shall meet the following requirements:

  • C::allocator_type shall be identical to std::experimental::erased_type.
  • X.get_memory_resource() returns rptr.

Class template polymorphic_allocator overview

[memory.polymorphic.allocator.overview]

A specialization of class template pmr::polymorphic_allocator conforms to the Allocator requirements (C++14 §17.6.3.5). Constructed with different memory resources, different instances of the same specialization of pmr::polymorphic_allocator can exhibit entirely different allocation behavior. This runtime polymorphism allows objects that use polymorphic_allocator to behave as if they used different allocator types at run time even though they use the same static allocator type.

Requires:
p was allocated from a memory resource, x, equal to *m_resource, using x.allocate(n * sizeof(Tp), alignof(Tp)).
Effects:
Equivalent to m_resource->deallocate(p, n * sizeof(Tp), alignof(Tp)).
Throws:
Nothing.
template <class T, class... Args>
void construct(T* p, Args&&... args);
Requires:
Uses-allocator construction of T with allocator this->resource() (see 2.1) and constructor arguments std::forward<Args>(args)... is well-formed. [ Note: uses-allocator construction is always well formed for types that do not use allocators. end note ]
Effects:
Construct a T object at p by uses-allocator construction with allocator this->resource() (2.1) and constructor arguments std::forward<Args>(args)....
Throws:
: Nothing unless the constructor for T throws.

void construct(pair<T1,T2>* p, piecewise_construct_t,
               tuple<Args1...> x, tuple<Args2...> y);
Effects:
Let xprime be a tuple constructed from x according to the appropriate rule from the following list.

resource_adaptor

[memory.resource.adaptor.overview]

An instance of resource_adaptor<Allocator> is an adaptor that wraps a memory_resource interface around Allocator. In order that resource_adaptor<X<T>> and resource_adaptor<X<U>> are the same type for any allocator template X and types T and U, resource_adaptor<Allocator> is rendered as an alias to a class template such that Allocator is rebound to a char value type in every specialization of the class template. The requirements on this class template are defined below. The name resource_adaptor_imp is for exposition only and is not normative, but the definitions of the members of that class, whatever its name, are normative. In addition to the Allocator requirements (C++14 §17.6.3.5), the parameter to resource_adaptor shall meet the following additional requirements:

  • typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::pointer shall be identical to typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::value_type*.
  • typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::const_pointer shall be identical to typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::value_type const*.
  • typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::void_pointer shall be identical to void*.
  • typename allocator_traits<Allocator>::const_void_pointer shall be identical to void const*.

// The name resource_adaptor_imp is for exposition only.

Access to program-wide memory_resource objects

[memory.resource.global]
memory_resource* new_delete_resource() noexcept;
Returns:
A pointer to a static-duration object of a type derived from memory_resource that can serve as a resource for allocating memory using ::operator new and ::operator delete. The same value is returned every time this function is called. For return value p and memory resource r, p->is_equal(r) returns &r == p.
memory_resource* null_memory_resource() noexcept;
Returns:
A pointer to a static-duration object of a type derived from memory_resource for which allocate() always throws bad_alloc and for which deallocate() has no effect. The same value is returned every time this function is called. For return value p and memory resource r, p->is_equal(r) returns &r == p.

The default memory resource pointer is a pointer to a memory resource that is used by certain facilities when an explicit memory resource is not supplied through the interface. Its initial value is the return value of new_delete_resource().

memory_resource* set_default_resource(memory_resource* r) noexcept;
Effects:
If r is non-null, sets the value of the default memory resource pointer to r, otherwise sets the default memory resource pointer to new_delete_resource().
Postconditions:
get_default_resource() == r.
Returns:
The previous value of the default memory resource pointer.
Remarks:
Calling the set_default_resource and get_default_resource functions shall not incur a data race. A call to the set_default_resource function shall synchronize with subsequent calls to the set_default_resource and get_default_resource functions.
memory_resource* get_default_resource() noexcept;
Returns:
The current value of the default memory resource pointer.

Pool resource classes

[memory.resource.pool]
8.9.1

Classes synchronized_pool_resource and unsynchronized_pool_resource

[memory.resource.pool.overview]

The synchronized_pool_resource and unsynchronized_pool_resource classes (collectively, pool resource classes) are general-purpose memory resources having the following qualities:

  • Each resource owns the allocated memory, and frees it on destruction – even if deallocate has not been called for some of the allocated blocks.
  • A pool resource (see Figure 1) 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.
  • 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 ]
  • Allocation requests that exceed the largest block size of any pool are fulfilled directly from the upstream allocator.
  • A pool_options struct may be passed to the pool resource constructors to tune the largest block size and the maximum chunk size.
[ Example: Figure 1 shows a possible data structure that implements a pool resource.
Figure 1 —
pool resource
end example ]

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.

struct pool_options {
  size_t max_blocks_per_chunk = 0;
  size_t largest_required_pool_block = 0;
};

pool_options data members

[memory.resource.pool.options]

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;

The maximum number of blocks that will be allocated at once from the upstream memory resource 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;

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.

8.9.3

pool resource constructors and destructors

[memory.resource.pool.ctor]
synchronized_pool_resource(const pool_options& opts, memory_resource* upstream);unsynchronized_pool_resource(const pool_options& opts, memory_resource* upstream);
Requires:
upstream is the address of a valid memory resource.
Effects:
Constructs a pool resource object that will obtain memory from upstream whenever the pool resource is unable to satisfy a memory request from its own internal data structures. The resulting object will hold a copy of upstream, but will not own the resource to which upstream points. [ Note: The intention is that calls to upstream->allocate() will be substantially fewer than calls to this->allocate() in most cases. end note ] The behavior of the pooling mechanism is tuned according to the value of the opts argument.
Throws:
Nothing unless upstream->allocate() throws. It is unspecified if or under what conditions this constructor calls upstream->allocate().
virtual ~synchronized_pool_resource();virtual ~unsynchronized_pool_resource();
Effects:
Calls this->release().

pool resource members

[memory.resource.pool.mem]

Effects:
Calls upstream_resource()->deallocate() as necessary to release all allocated memory. [ Note: memory is released back to upstream_resource() even if deallocate has not been called for some of the allocated blocks. end note ]
memory_resource* upstream_resource() const;
Returns:
The value of the upstream argument provided to the constructor of this object.
pool_options options() const;
Returns:
The options that control the pooling behavior of this resource. The values in the returned struct may differ from those supplied to the pool resource constructor in that values of zero will be replaced with implementation-defined defaults and sizes may be rounded to unspecified granularity.
virtual void* do_allocate(size_t bytes, size_t alignment);
Returns:
A pointer to allocated storage (C++14 §3.7.4.2) with a size of at least bytes. The size and alignment of the allocated memory shall meet the requirements for a class derived from memory_resource (8.5).
Effects:
If the pool selected for a block of size bytes is unable to satisfy the memory request from its own internal data structures, it will call upstream_resource()->allocate() to obtain more memory. If bytes is larger than that which the largest pool can handle, then memory will be allocated using upstream_resource()->allocate().
Throws:
Nothing unless upstream_resource()->allocate() throws.
virtual void do_deallocate(void* p, size_t bytes, size_t alignment);
Effects:
Return the memory at p to the pool. It is unspecified if or under what circumstances this operation will result in a call to upstream_resource()->deallocate().
Throws:
Nothing
virtual bool unsynchronized_pool_resource::do_is_equal(const memory_resource& other) const noexcept;
Returns:
this == dynamic_cast<const unsynchronized_pool_resource*>(&other).

Class monotonic_buffer_resource overview

[memory.resource.monotonic.buffer.overview]

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:

  • A call to deallocate has no effect, thus the amount of memory consumed increases monotonically until the resource is destroyed.
  • The program can supply an initial buffer, which the allocator uses to satisfy memory requests.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • It owns the allocated memory and frees it on destruction, even if deallocate has not been called for some of the allocated blocks.

monotonic_buffer_resource constructor and destructor

[memory.resource.monotonic.buffer.ctor]
explicit monotonic_buffer_resource(memory_resource* upstream);monotonic_buffer_resource(size_t initial_size, memory_resource* upstream);
Requires:
upstream shall be the address of a valid memory resource. initial_size, if specified, shall be greater than zero.
Effects:
Sets upstream_rsrc to upstream and current_buffer to nullptr. If initial_size is specified, sets next_buffer_size to at least initial_size; otherwise sets next_buffer_size to an implementation-defined size.
monotonic_buffer_resource(void* buffer, size_t buffer_size, memory_resource* upstream);
Requires:
upstream shall be the address of a valid memory resource. buffer_size shall be no larger than the number of bytes in buffer.
Effects:
Sets upstream_rsrc to upstream, current_buffer to buffer, and next_buffer_size to initial_size (but not less than 1), then increases next_buffer_size by an implementation-defined growth factor (which need not be integral).
~monotonic_buffer_resource();

memory_resource* upstream_resource() const;
Returns:
The value of upstream_rsrc.
void* do_allocate(size_t bytes, size_t alignment);
Returns:
A pointer to allocated storage (C++14 §3.7.4.2) with a size of at least bytes. The size and alignment of the allocated memory shall meet the requirements for a class derived from memory_resource (8.5).
Effects:
If the unused space in current_buffer can fit a block with the specified bytes and alignment, then allocate the return block from current_buffer; otherwise set current_buffer to upstream_rsrc->allocate(n, m), where n is not less than max(bytes, next_buffer_size) and m is not less than alignment, and increase next_buffer_size by an implementation-defined growth factor (which need not be integral), then allocate the return block from the newly-allocated current_buffer.
Throws:
Nothing unless upstream_rsrc->allocate() throws.
void do_deallocate(void* p, size_t bytes, size_t alignment);
Effects:
None
Throws:
Nothing
Remarks:
Memory used by this resource increases monotonically until its destruction.

Non-owning pointers

[memory.observer.ptr]

A non-owning pointer, known as an observer, is an object o that stores a pointer to a second object, w. In this context, w is known as a watched object. [ Note: There is no watched object when the stored pointer is nullptr. end note ] An observer takes no responsibility or ownership of any kind for its watched object, if any; in particular, there is no inherent relationship between the lifetimes of o and w.

Specializations of observer_ptr shall meet the requirements of a CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable type. The template parameter W of an observer_ptr shall not be a reference type, but may be an incomplete type.

[ Note: The uses of observer_ptr include clarity of interface specification in new code, and interoperability with pointer-based legacy code. end note ]

Class template ostream_joiner

[iterator.ostream.joiner]

ostream_joiner writes (using operator<<) successive elements onto the output stream from which it was constructed. The delimiter that it was constructed with is written to the stream between every two Ts that are written. It is not possible to get a value out of the output iterator. Its only use is as an output iterator in situations like

while (first != last)
  *result++ = *first++;

ostream_joiner is defined as

  • SampleIterator shall meet the requirements of an OutputIterator type.
  • SampleIterator shall meet the additional requirements of a RandomAccessIterator type unless PopulationIterator meets the additional requirements of a ForwardIterator type.
  • PopulationIterator's value type shall be writable to out.

  • out shall not be in the range [first, last).
Effects:
Copies min(last−first, n) elements (the sample) from [first, last) (the population) to out such that each possible sample has equal probability of appearance. [ Note: Algorithms that obtain such effects include selection sampling and reservoir sampling. end note ]
Returns:
The end of the resulting sample range.
Complexity:
O(last - first).
Remarks:
  • Stable if and only if PopulationIterator meets the requirements of a ForwardIterator type.
  • To the extent that the implementation of this function makes use of random numbers, the object g shall serve as the implementation’s source of randomness.

|m| shall be representable as a value of type M and |n| shall be representable as a value of type N. The least common multiple of |m| and |n| shall be representable as a value of type common_type_t<M,N>.
Remarks:
If either M or N is not an integer type, the program is ill-formed.
Returns:
zero when either m or n is zero. Otherwise, returns the least common multiple of |m| and |n|.
Throws:
Nothing.

[ Note: The intent of source_location is to have a small size and efficient copying. end note ]

14.1.2

source_location creation

[reflection.src_loc.creation]
static constexpr source_location current() noexcept;
Returns:
When invoked by a function call (C++14 §5.2.2) whose postfix-expression is a (possibly parenthesized) id-expression naming current, returns a source_location with an implementation-defined value. The value should be affected by #line (C++14 §16.4) in the same manner as for __LINE__ and __FILE__. If invoked in some other way, the value returned is unspecified.
Remarks:
When a brace-or-equal-initializer is used to initialize a non-static data member, any calls to current should correspond to the location of the constructor or aggregate initialization that initializes the member.

[ Note: When used as a default argument (C++14 §8.3.6), the value of the source_location will be the location of the call to current at the call site. end note ]

[ Example:
struct s {
  source_location member = source_location::current();
  int other_member;
  s(source_location loc = source_location::current())
    : member(loc) // values of member will be from call-site
  {}
  s(int blather) : // values of member should be hereabouts
    other_member(blather) {}
  s(double) // values of member should be hereabouts
  {}
};

void f(source_location a = source_location::current()) {
  source_location b = source_location::current(); // values in b represent this line
}

void g() {
  f(); // f’s first argument corresponds to this line of code

  source_location c = source_location::current();
  f(c); // f’s first argument gets the same values as c, above
}
end example ]
constexpr source_location() noexcept;
Effects:
Constructs an object of class source_location.
Remarks:
The values are implementation-defined.
14.1.3

source_location field access

[reflection.src_loc.fields]
constexpr uint_least32_t line() const noexcept;
Returns:
The presumed line number (C++14 §16.8) represented by this object.
constexpr uint_least32_t column() const noexcept;
Returns:
An implementation-defined value representing some offset from the start of the line represented by this object.
constexpr const char* file_name() const noexcept;
Returns:
The presumed name of the current source file (C++14 §16.8) represented by this object as an NTBS.
constexpr const char* function_name() const noexcept;
Returns:
If this object represents a position in the body of a function, returns an implementation-defined NTBS that should correspond to the function name. Otherwise, returns an empty string.
