STD::POINTER_TRAITS(3cxx)

💅 std::pointer_traits< _Ptr > 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

std::pointer_traits< _Ptr > — uniform interface to all pointer-like types. This is the libstdc++ (3cxx) manual page, and it's lowkey iconic because it gives pointer-ish things one consistent interface 💖.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <memory>

Inherits std::__ptr_traits_impl< _Ptr, _Elt >.

🌸 Public Types 🌸

• difference_type — the type used to represent the difference between two pointers. using difference_type = __detected_or_t< ptrdiff_t, __diff_t, _Ptr >
• element_type — the type pointed to. using element_type = _Elt
• pointer — the pointer type. using pointer = _Ptr
• rebind — a pointer to a different type. template<typename _Up > using rebind = typename __detected_or_t< __replace_first_arg< _Ptr, _Up >, __rebind, _Ptr, _Up >::type

💅 Static Public Member Functions 💅

• static pointer pointer_to (element_type &__r) — obtain a pointer to an object.

🌈 Detailed Description 🌈

template<typename _Ptr>
    struct std::pointer_traits< _Ptr >"Uniform interface to all pointer-like
    types.

Yeah, that quote after _Ptr > is really in the original — we're not fixing it, bestie 😭.

Since: C++11

🦋 Member Typedef Documentation 🦋

• difference_type — inherited.

template<typename _Ptr , typename _Elt > using std::__ptr_traits_impl< _Ptr,
    _Elt >::difference_type =  __detected_or_t<ptrdiff_t, __diff_t, _Ptr>
    [inherited]

The type used to represent the difference between two pointers.

• element_type — inherited.

template<typename _Ptr , typename _Elt > using std::__ptr_traits_impl< _Ptr,
    _Elt >::element_type =  _Elt
    [inherited]

The type pointed to.

• pointer — inherited.

template<typename _Ptr , typename _Elt > using std::__ptr_traits_impl< _Ptr,
    _Elt >::pointer =  _Ptr
    [inherited]

The pointer type.

• rebind — inherited.

template<typename _Ptr , typename _Elt > template<typename _Up > using
    std::__ptr_traits_impl< _Ptr, _Elt >::rebind =  typename
    __detected_or_t<__replace_first_arg<_Ptr, _Up>, __rebind, _Ptr,
    _Up>::type [inherited]

A pointer to a different type.

🔥 Member Function Documentation 🔥

template<typename _Ptr , typename _Elt , bool  = is_void<_Elt>::value>
    static pointer std::__ptr_traits_ptr_to< _Ptr, _Elt, bool >::pointer_to
    (element_type & __r) [inline],  [static],  [inherited]

Obtain a pointer to an object.

• Parameters: __r — a reference to an object of type element_type
• Returns: pointer::pointer_to(__r)
• Precondition: pointer::pointer_to(__r) is a valid expression.

Cute sign-off: source/version = libstdc++; page = std::pointer_traits< _Ptr >(3cxx); date = the original footer doesn't list one, so I'm not inventing a date, bestie 😌💅.
