19.11 Smart pointers [smartptr]

19.11.1 Class template unique_­ptr [unique.ptr]

1
#
A unique pointer is an object that owns another object and manages that other object through a pointer.
More precisely, a unique pointer is an object u that stores a pointer to a second object p and will dispose of p when u is itself destroyed (e.g., when leaving block scope ([stmt.dcl])).
In this context, u is said to own p.
2
#
The mechanism by which u disposes of p is known as p's associated deleter, a function object whose correct invocation results in p's appropriate disposition (typically its deletion).
3
#
Let the notation u.p denote the pointer stored by u, and let u.d denote the associated deleter.
Upon request, u can reset (replace) u.p and u.d with another pointer and deleter, but properly disposes of its owned object via the associated deleter before such replacement is considered completed.
4
#
Each object of a type U instantiated from the unique_­ptr template specified in this subclause has the strict ownership semantics, specified above, of a unique pointer.
In partial satisfaction of these semantics, each such U is Cpp17MoveConstructible and Cpp17MoveAssignable, but is not Cpp17CopyConstructible nor Cpp17CopyAssignable.
The template parameter T of unique_­ptr may be an incomplete type.
5
#
[ Note
:
The uses of unique_­ptr include providing exception safety for dynamically allocated memory, passing ownership of dynamically allocated memory to a function, and returning dynamically allocated memory from a function.

#
The default type for the template parameter D is default_­delete.
A client-supplied template argument D shall be a function object type, lvalue reference to function, or lvalue reference to function object type for which, given a value d of type D and a value ptr of type unique_­ptr<T, D>​::​pointer, the expression d(ptr) is valid and has the effect of disposing of the pointer as appropriate for that deleter.
2
#
If the deleter's type D is not a reference type, D shall satisfy the Cpp17Destructible requirements (Table 29).
3
#
If the qualified-id remove_­reference_­t<D>​::​pointer is valid and denotes a type ([temp.deduct]), then unique_­ptr<T, D>​::​pointer shall be a synonym for remove_­reference_­t<D>​::​pointer.
Otherwise unique_­ptr<T, D>​::​pointer shall be a synonym for element_­type*.
The type unique_­ptr<T, D>​::​pointer shall satisfy the Cpp17NullablePointer requirements (Table 30).
4
#
[ Example
:
Given an allocator type X (Table 33) and letting A be a synonym for allocator_­traits<X>, the types A​::​pointer, A​::​const_­pointer, A​::​void_­pointer, and A​::​const_­void_­pointer may be used as unique_­ptr<T, D>​::​pointer.

3
#
Ensures: get() == nullptr.
get_­deleter() returns a reference to the stored deleter.
4
#
Remarks: If is_­pointer_­v<deleter_­type> is true or is_­default_­constructible_­v<deleter_­type> is false, this constructor shall not participate in overload resolution.
🔗
explicit unique_ptr(pointer p) noexcept;
5
#
Requires: D shall satisfy the Cpp17DefaultConstructible requirements (Table 24), and that construction shall not throw an exception.
6
#
Effects: Constructs a unique_­ptr which owns p, initializing the stored pointer with p and value-initializing the stored deleter.
7
#
Ensures: get() == p.
get_­deleter() returns a reference to the stored deleter.
8
#
Remarks: If is_­pointer_­v<deleter_­type> is true or is_­default_­constructible_­v<deleter_­type> is false, this constructor shall not participate in overload resolution.
If class template argument deduction ([over.match.class.deduct]) would select the function template corresponding to this constructor, then the program is ill-formed.
🔗
unique_ptr(pointer p, see below d1) noexcept; unique_ptr(pointer p, see below d2) noexcept;
9
#
The signature of these constructors depends upon whether D is a reference type.
If D is a non-reference type A, then the signatures are:
unique_ptr(pointer p, const A& d) noexcept;
unique_ptr(pointer p, A&& d) noexcept;
10
#
If D is an lvalue reference type A&, then the signatures are:
unique_ptr(pointer p, A& d) noexcept;
unique_ptr(pointer p, A&& d) = delete;
11
#
If D is an lvalue reference type const A&, then the signatures are:
unique_ptr(pointer p, const A& d) noexcept;
unique_ptr(pointer p, const A&& d) = delete;
12
#
Requires: For the first constructor, if D is not a reference type, D shall satisfy the Cpp17CopyConstructible requirements and such construction shall not exit via an exception.
For the second constructor, if D is not a reference type, D shall satisfy the Cpp17MoveConstructible requirements and such construction shall not exit via an exception.
13
#
Effects: Constructs a unique_­ptr object which owns p, initializing the stored pointer with p and initializing the deleter from std​::​forward<decltype(d)>(d).

If D is a reference type then get_­deleter() returns a reference to the lvalue d.
16
#
Remarks: If class template argument deduction ([over.match.class.deduct]) would select a function template corresponding to either of these constructors, then the program is ill-formed.
17
#
[ Example
: 
D d;
unique_ptr<int, D> p1(new int, D());        // D must be Cpp17MoveConstructible
unique_ptr<int, D> p2(new int, d);          // D must be Cpp17CopyConstructible
unique_ptr<int, D&> p3(new int, d);         // p3 holds a reference to d
unique_ptr<int, const D&> p4(new int, D()); // error: rvalue deleter object combined

🔗
template<class U, class E> unique_ptr(unique_ptr<U, E>&& u) noexcept;
21
#
Requires: If E is not a reference type, construction of the deleter from an rvalue of type E shall be well-formed and shall not throw an exception.

unique_ptr& operator=(unique_ptr&& u) noexcept;
1
#
Requires: If D is not a reference type, D shall satisfy the Cpp17MoveAssignable requirements (Table 27) and assignment of the deleter from an rvalue of type D shall not throw an exception.
Otherwise, D is a reference type; remove_­reference_­t<D> shall satisfy the Cpp17CopyAssignable requirements and assignment of the deleter from an lvalue of type D shall not throw an exception.

  • (6.1)
    unique_­ptr<U, E>​::​pointer is implicitly convertible to pointer, and

🔗
void reset(pointer p = pointer()) noexcept;
3
#
Requires: The expression get_­deleter()(get()) shall be well-formed, shall have well-defined behavior, and shall not throw exceptions.
4
#
Effects: Assigns p to the stored pointer, and then if and only if the old value of the stored pointer, old_­p, was not equal to nullptr, calls get_­deleter()(old_­p).
[ Note
:
The order of these operations is significant because the call to get_­deleter() may destroy *this.
