NAME¶

std::swap(std::tuple) - std::swap(std::tuple)

Synopsis¶

Defined in header <tuple>
template< class... Types >
(since C++11)
void swap( std::tuple<Types...>& lhs, (until C++20)

std::tuple<Types...>& rhs ) noexcept(/* see below */);
template< class... Types >

constexpr void swap( std::tuple<Types...>& lhs, (1) (since C++20)

std::tuple<Types...>& rhs ) noexcept(/* see below */);
template< class... Types >

constexpr void swap( const std::tuple<Types...>& lhs, (2) (since C++23)

const std::tuple<Types...>& rhs ) noexcept(/* see below */);

Swaps the contents of lhs and rhs. Equivalent to lhs.swap(rhs).

1) This overload participates in overload resolution only if
std::is_swappable_v<Ti> is true for all i from 0 to sizeof...(Types).
2) This overload participates in overload resolution only if (since C++17)
std::is_swappable_v<const Ti> is true for all i from 0 to
sizeof...(Types).

Parameters¶

lhs, rhs - tuples whose contents to swap

Return value¶

(none)

Exceptions¶

noexcept specification:
noexcept(noexcept(lhs.swap(rhs)))

Example¶

// Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <tuple>

int main()
{
std::tuple<int, std::string, float>
p1{42, "ABCD", 2.71},
p2;
p2 = std::make_tuple(10, "1234", 3.14);

auto print_p1_p2 = [&](auto rem) {
std::cout << rem
<< "p1 = {" << std::get<0>(p1)
<< ", " << std::get<1>(p1)
<< ", " << std::get<2>(p1) << "}, "
<< "p2 = {" << std::get<0>(p2)
<< ", " << std::get<1>(p2)
<< ", " << std::get<2>(p2) << "}\n";
};

print_p1_p2("Before p1.swap(p2): ");
p1.swap(p2);
print_p1_p2("After p1.swap(p2): ");
swap(p1, p2);
print_p1_p2("After swap(p1, p2): ");
}

Output:¶

Before p1.swap(p2): p1 = {42, ABCD, 2.71}, p2 = {10, 1234, 3.14}
After p1.swap(p2): p1 = {10, 1234, 3.14}, p2 = {42, ABCD, 2.71}
After swap(p1, p2): p1 = {42, ABCD, 2.71}, p2 = {10, 1234, 3.14}
