26.7 Range adaptors [range.adaptors]

26.7.4 Non-propagating cache [range.nonprop.cache]

Some types in subclause [range.adaptors] are specified in terms of an exposition-only class template non-propagating-​cache.
non-propagating-cache<T> behaves exactly like optional<T> with the following differences:
  • non-propagating-cache<T> constrains its type parameter T with is_object_v<T>.
  • The copy constructor is equivalent to: constexpr non-propagating-cache(const non-propagating-cache&) noexcept {}
  • The move constructor is equivalent to: constexpr non-propagating-cache(non-propagating-cache&& other) noexcept { other.reset(); }
  • The copy assignment operator is equivalent to: constexpr non-propagating-cache& operator=(const non-propagating-cache& other) noexcept { if (addressof(other) != this) reset(); return *this; }
  • The move assignment operator is equivalent to: constexpr non-propagating-cache& operator=(non-propagating-cache&& other) noexcept { reset(); other.reset(); return *this; }
  • non-propagating-cache<T> has an additional member function template specified as follows:
    template<class I> constexpr T& emplace-deref(const I& i); // exposition only
    Mandates: The declaration T t(*i); is well-formed for some invented variable t.
    [Note 1: 
    If *i is a prvalue of type cv T, there is no requirement that it is movable ([dcl.init.general]).
    — end note]
    Effects: Calls reset().
    Then direct-non-list-initializes the contained value with *i.
    Postconditions: *this contains a value.
    Returns: A reference to the new contained value.
    Throws: Any exception thrown by the initialization of the contained value.
    Remarks: If an exception is thrown during the initialization of T, *this does not contain a value, and the previous value (if any) has been destroyed.
[Note 2: 
non-propagating-cache enables an input view to temporarily cache values as it is iterated over.
