std::uses_allocator

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | memory
 
 
 
 
Defined in header <memory>
template< class T, class Alloc >
struct uses_allocator
(since C++11)

If T has a member typedef allocator_type which is convertible from Alloc or is an alias of std::experimental::erased_type (library fundamentals TS), provides the member constant value equal to true. Otherwise value is false.

[edit] Specializations

Custom specializations of the type trait std::uses_allocator are allowed for types that do not have the member typedef allocator_type but satisfy one of the following two requirements:

1) T has a constructor which takes std::allocator_arg_t as the first argument, and Alloc as the second argument.
2) T has a constructor which takes Alloc as the last argument.

In the above, Alloc is a type that satisfies Allocator or is a pointer type convertible to std::experimental::pmr::memory_resource* (library fundamentals TS).

The following specializations are already provided by the standard library:

specializes the std::uses_allocator type trait
(class template specialization)
specializes the std::uses_allocator type trait
(function template)
specializes the std::uses_allocator type trait

[edit] Notes

This type trait is used by std::scoped_allocator_adaptor and may be used by custom allocators to determine whether the object being constructed is itself capable of using an allocator (e.g. is a container), in which case an allocator should be passed to its constructor.
