std::out_ptr(3) C++ Standard Libary std::out_ptr(3) NAME std::out_ptr - std::out_ptr Synopsis Defined in header <memory> template< class Pointer = void, class Smart, class... Args > (since C++23) auto out_ptr( Smart& s, Args&&... args ); Returns an std::out_ptr_t with deduced template arguments that cap- tures arguments for resetting by reference. The program is ill-formed if construction of the return value (see below) is ill-formed. Parameters s - the object (typically a smart pointer) to adapt args... - the arguments for resetting to capture Return value std::out_ptr_t<Smart, P, Args&&>(s, std::forward<Args>(args)...), where P is * Pointer, if Pointer is not same as void. Otherwise, * Smart::pointer, if it is valid and denotes a type. Otherwise, * Smart::element_type*, if Smart::element_type is valid and de- notes a type. Otherwise, * std::pointer_traits<Smart>::element_type*. Notes Users may specify the template argument for the template parameter Pointer, in order to interoperate with foreign functions that take a Pointer*. As all arguments for resetting are captured by reference, the re- turned out_ptr_t should be a temporary object destroyed at the end of the full-ex- pression containing the call to the foreign function, in order to avoid dangling refer- ences.
