20.4 Pairs [pairs]

20.4.2 Class template pair [pairs.pair]

namespace std { template<class T1, class T2> struct pair { using first_type = T1; using second_type = T2; T1 first; T2 second; pair(const pair&) = default; pair(pair&&) = default; constexpr explicit(see below) pair(); constexpr explicit(see below) pair(const T1& x, const T2& y); template<class U1, class U2> constexpr explicit(see below) pair(U1&& x, U2&& y); template<class U1, class U2> constexpr explicit(see below) pair(const pair<U1, U2>& p); template<class U1, class U2> constexpr explicit(see below) pair(pair<U1, U2>&& p); template<class... Args1, class... Args2> constexpr pair(piecewise_construct_t, tuple<Args1...> first_args, tuple<Args2...> second_args); constexpr pair& operator=(const pair& p); template<class U1, class U2> constexpr pair& operator=(const pair<U1, U2>& p); constexpr pair& operator=(pair&& p) noexcept(see below); template<class U1, class U2> constexpr pair& operator=(pair<U1, U2>&& p); constexpr void swap(pair& p) noexcept(see below); }; template<class T1, class T2> pair(T1, T2) -> pair<T1, T2>; }

Constructors and member functions of pair do not throw exceptions unless one of the element-wise operations specified to be called for that operation throws an exception.

The defaulted move and copy constructor, respectively, of pair is a constexpr function if and only if all required element-wise initializations for move and copy, respectively, would satisfy the requirements for a constexpr function.

If (is_trivially_destructible_v<T1> && is_trivially_destructible_v<T2>) is true, then the destructor of pair is trivial.

pair<T, U> is a structural type ([temp.param]) if T and U are both structural types.

Two values p1 and p2 of type pair<T, U> are template-argument-equivalent ([temp.type]) if and only if p1.first and p2.first are template-argument-equivalent and p1.second and p2.second are template-argument-equivalent.

constexpr explicit(see below) pair();

Constraints:

(5.1)
is_default_constructible_v<first_type> is true and
(5.2)
is_default_constructible_v<second_type> is true.

Effects: Value-initializes first and second.

Remarks: The expression inside explicit evaluates to true if and only if either first_type or second_type is not implicitly default-constructible.

[Note 1:

This behavior can be implemented with a trait that checks whether a const first_type& or a const second_type& can be initialized with {}.

— end note]

🔗

constexpr explicit(see below) pair(const T1& x, const T2& y);

Constraints:

(8.1)
is_copy_constructible_v<first_type> is true and
(8.2)
is_copy_constructible_v<second_type> is true.

Effects: Initializes first with x and second with y.

Remarks: The expression inside explicit is equivalent to: !is_convertible_v<const first_type&, first_type> || !is_convertible_v<const second_type&, second_type>

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> constexpr explicit(see below) pair(U1&& x, U2&& y);

Constraints:

(11.1)
is_constructible_v<first_type, U1> is true and
(11.2)
is_constructible_v<second_type, U2> is true.

Effects: Initializes first with std::forward<U1>(x) and second with std::forward<U2>(y).

Remarks: The expression inside explicit is equivalent to: !is_convertible_v<U1, first_type> || !is_convertible_v<U2, second_type>

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> constexpr explicit(see below) pair(const pair<U1, U2>& p);

Constraints:

(14.1)
is_constructible_v<first_type, const U1&> is true and
(14.2)
is_constructible_v<second_type, const U2&> is true.

Effects: Initializes members from the corresponding members of the argument.

Remarks: The expression inside explicit is equivalent to: !is_convertible_v<const U1&, first_type> || !is_convertible_v<const U2&, second_type>

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> constexpr explicit(see below) pair(pair<U1, U2>&& p);

Constraints:

(17.1)
is_constructible_v<first_type, U1> is true and
(17.2)
is_constructible_v<second_type, U2> is true.

Effects: Initializes first with std::forward<U1>(p.first) and second with std::forward<U2>(p.second).

Remarks: The expression inside explicit is equivalent to: !is_convertible_v<U1, first_type> || !is_convertible_v<U2, second_type>

🔗

template<class... Args1, class... Args2>
  constexpr pair(piecewise_construct_t,
                 tuple<Args1...> first_args, tuple<Args2...> second_args);

Mandates:

(20.1)
is_constructible_v<first_type, Args1...> is true and
(20.2)
is_constructible_v<second_type, Args2...> is true.

Effects: Initializes first with arguments of types Args1... obtained by forwarding the elements of first_args and initializes second with arguments of types Args2... obtained by forwarding the elements of second_args.

(Here, forwarding an element x of type U within a tuple object means calling std::forward<U>(x).)

This form of construction, whereby constructor arguments for first and second are each provided in a separate tuple object, is called piecewise construction.

🔗

constexpr pair& operator=(const pair& p);

Effects: Assigns p.first to first and p.second to second.

Returns: *this.

Remarks: This operator is defined as deleted unless is_copy_assignable_v<first_type> is true and is_copy_assignable_v<second_type> is true.

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> constexpr pair& operator=(const pair<U1, U2>& p);

Constraints:

(25.1)
is_assignable_v<first_type&, const U1&> is true and
(25.2)
is_assignable_v<second_type&, const U2&> is true.

Effects: Assigns p.first to first and p.second to second.

Returns: *this.

🔗

constexpr pair& operator=(pair&& p) noexcept(see below);

Constraints:

(28.1)
is_move_assignable_v<first_type> is true and
(28.2)
is_move_assignable_v<second_type> is true.

Effects: Assigns to first with std::forward<first_type>(p.first) and to second with

std::forward<second_type>(p.second).

Returns: *this.

Remarks: The exception specification is equivalent to: is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<T1> && is_nothrow_move_assignable_v<T2>

🔗

template<class U1, class U2> constexpr pair& operator=(pair<U1, U2>&& p);

Constraints:

(32.1)
is_assignable_v<first_type&, U1> is true and
(32.2)
is_assignable_v<second_type&, U2> is true.

Effects: Assigns to first with std::forward<U1>(p.first) and to second with

std::forward<U2>(p.second).

Returns: *this.

🔗

constexpr void swap(pair& p) noexcept(see below);

Preconditions: first is swappable with ([swappable.requirements]) p.first and second is swappable with p.second.

Effects: Swaps first with p.first and second with p.second.

Remarks: The exception specification is equivalent to: is_nothrow_swappable_v<first_type> && is_nothrow_swappable_v<second_type>
