πŸŽ€ std::experimental::propagate_const::operatorbool(3) πŸŽ€

okay bestie, gather round, because we're looking at std::experimental::propagate_const::operatorbool β€” yes that's the whole name, she's long, she's from the C++ Standard Libary (that's the manual name, typo and all, we don't gatekeep πŸ’…), and she is literally just a null-check with main character energy.

For the record, the header on this one gets truncated all cute like std::experi...peratorbool(3) because even the manpage generator ran out of breath. Iconic. 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

std::experimental::propagate_const::operatorbool β€” and again, same thing:

std::experimental::propagate_const::operatorbool

(she said it twice, she's committed, periodt πŸ‘‘)


🌸 Synopsis 🌸

constexpr explicit operator bool() const;  (library fundamentals TS v2)

So what does she do, you ask? She checks whether the wrapped pointer-like object, t_, is null. That's the whole vibe check. πŸ¦‹


πŸ’– Parameters πŸ’–

  • (none) β€” nothing, nada, zero arguments, she needs no input, she simply ✨knows✨ πŸ™ˆ

⭐ Return value ⭐

  • true if the wrapped object is not null 🌈
  • otherwise false πŸ₯€

And the important part, bestie: it's equivalent to (bool)t_. Write that down, it's on the test. πŸ“


πŸ“ Example πŸ“

This section is incomplete Reason: no example

no example, no demo, no tutorial era for us today. the example section is lowkey a ghost town πŸ˜­πŸ‘» we move.

  • get β€” returns a pointer to the object pointed to by the wrapped pointer (public member function) β€” your go-to girl when you want the actual object instead of a bool, iykyk πŸ’œ

(yeah. the todo is no example. she's been on the todo list since forever. we respect her journey. πŸŽ€)


okay that's the whole page, no cap, every detail present and accounted for πŸ’…βœ¨

signing off with the official receipts: this one's from http://cppreference.com, the 2024.06.10 version, and the title line said std::experi...peratorbool(3) β€” catch you on the next page, bestie, mwah 🫢🌸
