std::experi...ement_type*(3)

📦 version 2024.07.05, in nixpkgs unstable, opensuse-leap 16.0

💖 std::experi...ement_type*(3) 💖

okay so real talk, the manual name for this one is C++ Standard Libary — yes that's their typo, not mine, I'm just being faithful 💅. And the page itself is named std::experimental::observer_ptr::operatorelement_type* — the NAME section literally says it twice because it's that iconic, we love a double announcement ✨.

🌸 NAME 🌸

std::experimental::observer_ptr::operatorelement_type* — and yeah, it's listed again as std::experimental::observer_ptr::operatorelement_type*. Two for the price of one, bestie, slay 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

constexpr explicit operator element_type*() const noexcept;

(library fundamentals TS v2) — that's the version tag, don't come for me 🫶

So what does it do? It provides an explicit conversion to the type of the stored pointer. That's it. That's the whole vibe. Lowkey elegant, ngl 💀✨

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

  • (none) — literally nothing. empty. void. she takes no arguments and she doesn't need to 🧚

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

A pointer to the watched object — i.e., get(). Same energy, different entrance 🌈. It's literally just get() in a little conversion-operator costume, and honestly? Respect 😭💖

🍓 EXAMPLE 🍓

This section is incomplete Reason: no example

not me showing up to the function with no example... 🙈 the docs say incomplete and that's on that, I'm not out here inventing code for you, bestie — no cap, I will not make things up 💀

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

  • get — returns a pointer to the watched object (public member function) 👑 — yeah, the exact same thing this operator gives you, iykyk 🦋

💜 CATEGORY 💜

  • * Todo no example — the official paperwork also says "no example." It's giving consistent messaging, at least 💅✨

And that's the page!! 💖 Don't forget to check in on the get bestie. This gem is from http://cppreference.com, dated 2024.06.10, and the manual's own version line is std::experi...ement_type*(3) — same as it ever was 🎀👑 periodt ✨
