Constructors and member functions of pair shall not throw exceptions unless one of the element-wise operations specified to be called for that operation throws an exception.

The defaulted move and copy constructor, respectively, of pair shall be a constexpr function if and only if all required element-wise initializations for copy and move, respectively, would satisfy the requirements for a constexpr function.

If (is_trivially_destructible_v<T1> && is_trivially_destructible_v<T2>) is true, then the destructor of pair is trivial.

explicit(see below) constexpr pair();

Effects: Value-initializes first and second.

Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_default_constructible_v<first_type> is true and is_default_constructible_v<second_type> is true.

[ Note

This behavior can be implemented by a constructor template with default template arguments.

— end note

]

The expression inside explicit evaluates to true if and only if either first_type or second_type is not implicitly default-constructible.

[ Note

This behavior can be implemented with a trait that checks whether a const first_type& or a const second_type& can be initialized with {}.

— end note

explicit(see below) constexpr pair(const T1& x, const T2& y);

Effects: Initializes first with x and second with y.

Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_copy_constructible_v<first_type> is true and is_copy_constructible_v<second_type> is true.

The expression inside explicit is equivalent to:

!is_convertible_v<const first_type&, first_type> ||
  !is_convertible_v<const second_type&, second_type>

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> explicit(see below) constexpr pair(U1&& x, U2&& y);

Effects: Initializes first with std::forward<U1>(x) and second with std::forward<U2>(y).

Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_constructible_v<first_type, U1&&> is true and is_constructible_v<second_type, U2&&> is true.

The expression inside explicit is equivalent to:

!is_convertible_v<U1, first_type> || !is_convertible_v<U2, second_type>

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> explicit(see below) constexpr pair(const pair<U1, U2>& p);

Effects: Initializes members from the corresponding members of the argument.

Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_constructible_v<first_type, const U1&> is true and is_constructible_v<second_type, const U2&> is true.

The expression inside explicit is equivalent to:

!is_convertible_v<const U1&, first_type> || !is_convertible_v<const U2&, second_type>

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> explicit(see below) constexpr pair(pair<U1, U2>&& p);

Effects: Initializes first with std::forward<U1>(p.first) and second with std::forward<U2>(p.second).

Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_constructible_v<first_type, U1&&> is true and is_constructible_v<second_type, U2&&> is true.

The expression inside explicit is equivalent to:

!is_convertible_v<U1, first_type> || !is_convertible_v<U2, second_type>

🔗

template<class... Args1, class... Args2>
  pair(piecewise_construct_t, tuple<Args1...> first_args, tuple<Args2...> second_args);

Requires: is_constructible_v<first_type, Args1&&...> is true and is_constructible_v<second_type, Args2&&...> is true.

Effects: Initializes first with arguments of types Args1... obtained by forwarding the elements of first_args and initializes second with arguments of types Args2... obtained by forwarding the elements of second_args.

(Here, forwarding an element x of type U within a tuple object means calling std::forward<U>(x).)

This form of construction, whereby constructor arguments for first and second are each provided in a separate tuple object, is called piecewise construction.

🔗

pair& operator=(const pair& p);

Effects: Assigns p.first to first and p.second to second.

Remarks: This operator shall be defined as deleted unless is_copy_assignable_v<first_type> is true and is_copy_assignable_v<second_type> is true.

Returns: *this.

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> pair& operator=(const pair<U1, U2>& p);

Effects: Assigns p.first to first and p.second to second.

Remarks: This operator shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_assignable_v<first_type&, const U1&> is true and is_assignable_v<second_type&, const U2&> is true.

Returns: *this.

🔗

pair& operator=(pair&& p) noexcept(see below);

Effects: Assigns to first with std::forward<first_type>(p.first) and to second with
std::forward<second_type>(p.second).

Remarks: This operator shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_move_assignable_v<first_type> is true and is_move_assignable_v<second_type> is true.

Remarks: The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to:

is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<T1> && is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<T2>

Returns: *this.

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> pair& operator=(pair<U1, U2>&& p);

Effects: Assigns to first with std::forward<U1>(p.first) and to second with
std::forward<U2>(p.second).

Remarks: This operator shall not participate in overload resolution unless is_assignable_v<first_type&, U1&&> is true and is_assignable_v<second_type&, U2&&> is true.

Returns: *this.

🔗

void swap(pair& p) noexcept(see below);

Requires: first shall be swappable with ([swappable.requirements]) p.first and second shall be swappable with p.second.

Effects: Swaps first with p.first and second with p.second.

Remarks: The expression inside noexcept is equivalent to:

is_nothrow_swappable_v<first_type> && is_nothrow_swappable_v<second_type>
