NAME¶

std::experimental::apply - std::experimental::apply

Synopsis¶

Defined in header <experimental/tuple>
template< class F, class Tuple > (library fundamentals TS)
constexpr decltype(auto) apply(F&& f, Tuple&& t);

Invoke the Callable object f with a tuple of arguments.

Parameters¶

f - Callable object to be invoked
t - tuple whose elements to be used as arguments to f

Return value¶

What returned by f.

Possible implementation¶

namespace detail
{
template<class F, class Tuple, std::size_t... I>
constexpr decltype(auto) apply_impl(F&& f, Tuple&& t, std::index_sequence<I...>)
{
return std::invoke(std::forward<F>(f), std::get<I>(std::forward<Tuple>(t))...);
// Note: std::invoke is a C++17 feature
}
} // namespace detail

template<class F, class Tuple>
constexpr decltype(auto) apply(F&& f, Tuple&& t)
{
return detail::apply_impl(std::forward<F>(f), std::forward<Tuple>(t),
std::make_index_sequence<std::tuple_size_v<std::decay_t<Tuple>>>{});
}

Example¶

// Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <tuple>

template<typename... Ts>
void print_tuple(const std::tuple<Ts...> &tuple)
{
std::apply([](const auto&... elem)
{
((std::cout << elem << '\n'), ...);
}, tuple);
}

int main()
{
const std::tuple<int, char> t = std::make_tuple(5, 'a');
print_tuple(t);
}

Output:¶

5
a
