20.3.2.3.2 Constructors [util.smartptr.weak.const]

constexpr weak_ptr() noexcept;

Effects: Constructs an empty weak_ptr object that stores a null pointer value.

Postconditions: use_count() == 0.

🔗

weak_ptr(const weak_ptr& r) noexcept;
template<class Y> weak_ptr(const weak_ptr<Y>& r) noexcept;
template<class Y> weak_ptr(const shared_ptr<Y>& r) noexcept;

Constraints: For the second and third constructors, Y* is compatible with T*.

Effects: If r is empty, constructs an empty weak_ptr object that stores a null pointer value; otherwise, constructs a weak_ptr object that shares ownership with r and stores a copy of the pointer stored in r.

Postconditions: use_count() == r.use_count().

🔗

weak_ptr(weak_ptr&& r) noexcept;
template<class Y> weak_ptr(weak_ptr<Y>&& r) noexcept;

Constraints: For the second constructor, Y* is compatible with T*.

Effects: Move constructs a weak_ptr instance from r.

Postconditions: *this contains the old value of r.

r is empty, stores a null pointer value, and r.use_count() == 0.
