std::remove_cvref(3) C++ Standard Libary std::remove_cvref(3)

NAME

std::remove_cvref - std::remove_cvref

Synopsis


Defined in header <type_traits>
template< class T > (since C++20)
struct remove_cvref;


If the type T is a reference type, provides the member typedef type which is the
type referred to by T with its topmost cv-qualifiers removed. Otherwise type is T
with its topmost cv-qualifiers removed.


If the program adds specializations for std::remove_cvref, the behavior is
undefined.

Member types


Name Definition
type the type referred by T or T itself if it is not a reference, with top-level
cv-qualifiers removed

Helper types


template< class T > (since C++20)
using remove_cvref_t = remove_cvref<T>::type;

Possible implementation


template<class T>
struct remove_cvref
{
using type = std::remove_cv_t<std::remove_reference_t<T>>;
};

Example

// Run this code


#include <type_traits>


int main()
{
static_assert(std::is_same_v<std::remove_cvref_t<int>, int>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<std::remove_cvref_t<int&>, int>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<std::remove_cvref_t<int&&>, int>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<std::remove_cvref_t<const int&>, int>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<std::remove_cvref_t<const int[2]>, int[2]>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<std::remove_cvref_t<const int(&)[2]>, int[2]>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<std::remove_cvref_t<int(int)>, int(int)>);
}
