22.10 Function objects [function.objects]

22.10.1 General [function.objects.general]

A function object type is an object type ([basic.types.general]) that can be the type of the postfix-expression in a function call ([expr.call], [over.match.call]).202

A function object is an object of a function object type.

In the places where one would expect to pass a pointer to a function to an algorithmic template ([algorithms]), the interface is specified to accept a function object.

This not only makes algorithmic templates work with pointers to functions, but also enables them to work with arbitrary function objects.

202)202)

Such a type is a function pointer or a class type which has a member operator() or a class type which has a conversion to a pointer to function.

[Example 1:

If a C++ program wants to have a by-element addition of two vectors a and b containing double and put the result into a, it can do: transform(a.begin(), a.end(), b.begin(), a.begin(), plus<double>());

— end example]

[Example 2:

To negate every element of a:

transform(a.begin(), a.end(), a.begin(), negate<double>()); — end example]

22.10.3 Definitions [func.def]

The following definitions apply to this Clause:

A call signature is the name of a return type followed by a parenthesized comma-separated list of zero or more argument types.

A callable type is a function object type ([function.objects]) or a pointer to member.

A callable object is an object of a callable type.

A call wrapper type is a type that holds a callable object and supports a call operation that forwards to that object.

A call wrapper is an object of a call wrapper type.

A target object is the callable object held by a call wrapper.

A call wrapper type may additionally hold a sequence of objects and references that may be passed as arguments to the target object.

These entities are collectively referred to as bound argument entities.

The target object and bound argument entities of the call wrapper are collectively referred to as state entities.

22.10.4 Requirements [func.require]

Define INVOKE(f, t

_{1}

, t

_{2}

, …, t

_{N}

) as follows:

(1.1)
(t $_{1}$ .*f)(t $_{2}$ , …, t $_{N}$ ) when f is a pointer to a member function of a class T and is_same_v<T, remove_cvref_t<decltype(t1)>> || is_base_of_v<T, remove_cvref_t<decltype(t $_{1}$ )>> is true;
(1.2)
(t $_{1}$ .get().*f)(t $_{2}$ , …, t $_{N}$ ) when f is a pointer to a member function of a class T and remove_cvref_t<decltype(t $_{1}$ )> is a specialization of reference_wrapper;
(1.3)
((*t $_{1}$ ).*f)(t $_{2}$ , …, t $_{N}$ ) when f is a pointer to a member function of a class T and t $_{1}$ does not satisfy the previous two items;
(1.4)
t $_{1}$ .*f when $N = 1$ and f is a pointer to data member of a class T and is_same_v<T, remove_cvref_t<decltype(t1)>> || is_base_of_v<T, remove_cvref_t<decltype(t $_{1}$ )>> is true;
(1.5)
t $_{1}$ .get().*f when $N = 1$ and f is a pointer to data member of a class T and remove_cvref_t<decltype(t $_{1}$ )> is a specialization of reference_wrapper;
(1.6)
(*t $_{1}$ ).*f when $N = 1$ and f is a pointer to data member of a class T and t $_{1}$ does not satisfy the previous two items;
(1.7)
f(t $_{1}$ , t $_{2}$ , …, t $_{N}$ ) in all other cases.

Define INVOKE<R>(f, t

_{1}

, t

_{2}

, …, t

_{N}

) as static_cast<void>(INVOKE(f, t

_{1}

, t

_{2}

, …, t

_{N}

)) if R is cv void, otherwise INVOKE(f, t

_{1}

, t

_{2}

, …, t

_{N}

) implicitly converted to R.

If reference_converts_from_temporary_v<R, decltype(INVOKE(f, t

_{1}

, t

_{2}

, …, t

_{N}

))> is true, INVOKE<R>(f, t

_{1}

, t

_{2}

, …, t

_{N}

) is ill-formed.

Every call wrapper ([func.def]) meets the Cpp17MoveConstructible and Cpp17Destructible requirements.

An argument forwarding call wrapper is a call wrapper that can be called with an arbitrary argument list and delivers the arguments to the target object as references.

This forwarding step delivers rvalue arguments as rvalue references and lvalue arguments as lvalue references.

[Note 1:

In a typical implementation, argument forwarding call wrappers have an overloaded function call operator of the form template<class... UnBoundArgs> constexpr R operator()(UnBoundArgs&&... unbound_args) cv-qual;

— end note]

A perfect forwarding call wrapper is an argument forwarding call wrapper that forwards its state entities to the underlying call expression.

This forwarding step delivers a state entity of type T as cv T& when the call is performed on an lvalue of the call wrapper type and as cv T&& otherwise, where cv represents the cv-qualifiers of the call wrapper and where cv shall be neither volatile nor const volatile.

A call pattern defines the semantics of invoking a perfect forwarding call wrapper.

A postfix call performed on a perfect forwarding call wrapper is expression-equivalent ([defns.expression.equivalent]) to an expression e determined from its call pattern cp by replacing all occurrences of the arguments of the call wrapper and its state entities with references as described in the corresponding forwarding steps.

A simple call wrapper is a perfect forwarding call wrapper that meets the Cpp17CopyConstructible and Cpp17CopyAssignable requirements and whose copy constructor, move constructor, and assignment operators are constexpr functions that do not throw exceptions.

The copy/move constructor of an argument forwarding call wrapper has the same apparent semantics as if memberwise copy/move of its state entities were performed ([class.copy.ctor]).

[Note 2:

This implies that each of the copy/move constructors has the same exception-specification as the corresponding implicit definition and is declared as constexpr if the corresponding implicit definition would be considered to be constexpr.

— end note]

Argument forwarding call wrappers returned by a given standard library function template have the same type if the types of their corresponding state entities are the same.

22.10.15.2 Class template is_bind_expression [func.bind.isbind]

🔗

namespace std { template<class T> struct is_bind_expression; // see below }

The function template bind uses is_bind_expression to detect subexpressions.

Specializations of the is_bind_expression template shall meet the Cpp17UnaryTypeTrait requirements ([meta.rqmts]).

The implementation provides a definition that has a base characteristic of true_type if T is a type returned from bind, otherwise it has a base characteristic of false_type.

A program may specialize this template for a program-defined type T to have a base characteristic of true_type to indicate that T should be treated as a subexpression in a bind call.

22.10.15.3 Class template is_placeholder [func.bind.isplace]

🔗

Specializations of the is_placeholder template shall meet the Cpp17UnaryTypeTrait requirements ([meta.rqmts]).

The implementation provides a definition that has the base characteristic of integral_constant<int, J> if T is the type of std::placeholders::_J, otherwise it has a base characteristic of integral_constant<int, 0>.

A program may specialize this template for a program-defined type T to have a base characteristic of integral_constant<int, N> with N > 0 to indicate that T should be treated as a placeholder type.

if the value of is_bind_expression_v< ${TD}_{i}$ > is true, the argument is static_cast<cv ${TD}_{i}$ &>( ${td}_{i}$ )(std::forward< $U_{j}$ >( $u_{j}$ )...) and its type $V_{i}$ is invoke_result_t<cv ${TD}_{i}$ &, $U_{j}$ ...>&&;
(7.3)
if the value j of is_placeholder_v< ${TD}_{i}$ > is not zero, the argument is std::forward< $U_{j}$ >( $u_{j}$ ) and its type $V_{i}$ is $U_{j}$ &&;
(7.4)
otherwise, the value is ${td}_{i}$ and its type $V_{i}$ is cv ${TD}_{i}$ &.

The value of the target argument

22.10.15.5 Placeholders [func.bind.place]

namespace std::placeholders { // M is the number of placeholders see below _1; see below _2; . . . see below _M; }

The number M of placeholders is implementation-defined.

All placeholder types meet the Cpp17DefaultConstructible and Cpp17CopyConstructible requirements, and their default constructors and copy/move constructors are constexpr functions that do not throw exceptions.

It is implementation-defined whether placeholder types meet the Cpp17CopyAssignable requirements, but if so, their copy assignment operators are constexpr functions that do not throw exceptions.

Placeholders should be defined as: inline constexpr unspecified _1{};

If they are not, they are declared as: extern unspecified _1;

Placeholders are freestanding items ([freestanding.item]).

22.10.16 Function template mem_fn [func.memfn]

🔗

template<class R, class T> constexpr unspecified mem_fn(R T::* pm) noexcept;

Returns: A simple call wrapper ([func.require]) fn with call pattern invoke(pmd, call_args...), where pmd is the target object of fn of type R T::* direct-non-list-initialized with pm, and call_args is an argument pack used in a function call expression ([expr.call]) of fn.

22.10.17 Polymorphic function wrappers [func.wrap]

22.10.17.1 General [func.wrap.general]

Subclause [func.wrap] describes polymorphic wrapper classes that encapsulate arbitrary callable objects.

Let t be an object of a type that is a specialization of function, copyable_function, or move_only_function, such that the target object x of t has a type that is a specialization of function, copyable_function, or move_only_function.

Each argument of the invocation of x evaluated as part of the invocation of t may alias an argument in the same position in the invocation of t that has the same type, even if the corresponding parameter is not of reference type.

[Example 1: move_only_function<void(T)> f{copyable_function<void(T)>{[](T) {}}}; T t; f(t); // it is unspecified how many copies of T are made — end example]

Recommended practice: Implementations should avoid double wrapping when constructing polymorphic wrappers from one another.

22.10.17.2 Class bad_function_call [func.wrap.badcall]

An exception of type bad_function_call is thrown by function::operator() ([func.wrap.func.inv]) when the function wrapper object has no target.

namespace std { class bad_function_call : public exception { public: // see [exception] for the specification of the special member functions const char* what() const noexcept override; }; }

🔗

const char* what() const noexcept override;

Returns: An implementation-defined ntbs.

22.10.17.3 Class template function [func.wrap.func]

22.10.17.3.1 General [func.wrap.func.general]

🔗

namespace std { template<class R, class... ArgTypes> class function<R(ArgTypes...)> { public: using result_type = R; // [func.wrap.func.con], construct/copy/destroy function() noexcept; function(nullptr_t) noexcept; function(const function&); function(function&&) noexcept; template<class F> function(F&&); function& operator=(const function&); function& operator=(function&&); function& operator=(nullptr_t) noexcept; template<class F> function& operator=(F&&); template<class F> function& operator=(reference_wrapper<F>) noexcept; ~function(); // [func.wrap.func.mod], function modifiers void swap(function&) noexcept; // [func.wrap.func.cap], function capacity explicit operator bool() const noexcept; // [func.wrap.func.inv], function invocation R operator()(ArgTypes...) const; // [func.wrap.func.targ], function target access const type_info& target_type() const noexcept; template<class T> T* target() noexcept; template<class T> const T* target() const noexcept; }; template<class R, class... ArgTypes> function(R(*)(ArgTypes...)) -> function<R(ArgTypes...)>; template<class F> function(F) -> function<see below>; }

The function class template provides polymorphic wrappers that generalize the notion of a function pointer.

Wrappers can store, copy, and call arbitrary callable objects ([func.def]), given a call signature ([func.def]).

A callable type ([func.def]) F is Lvalue-Callable for argument types ArgTypes and return type R if the expression INVOKE<R>(declval<F&>(), declval<ArgTypes>()...), considered as an unevaluated operand ([expr.context]), is well-formed ([func.require]).

The function class template is a call wrapper ([func.def]) whose call signature ([func.def]) is R(ArgTypes...).

[Note 1:

The types deduced by the deduction guides for function might change in future revisions of C++.

Subclause [func.search] provides function object types ([function.objects]) for operations that search for a sequence [pat_first, pat_last) in another sequence [first, last) that is provided to the object's function call operator.

The first sequence (the pattern to be searched for) is provided to the object's constructor, and the second (the sequence to be searched) is provided to the function call operator.

Each specialization of a class template specified in [func.search] shall meet the Cpp17CopyConstructible and Cpp17CopyAssignable requirements.

Template parameters named

(2.1)
ForwardIterator,
(2.2)
ForwardIterator1,
(2.3)
ForwardIterator2,
(2.4)
RandomAccessIterator,
(2.5)
RandomAccessIterator1,
(2.6)
RandomAccessIterator2, and
(2.7)
BinaryPredicate

of templates specified in [func.search] shall meet the same requirements and semantics as specified in [algorithms.general].

Template parameters named Hash shall meet the Cpp17Hash requirements (Table 37).

The Boyer-Moore searcher implements the Boyer-Moore search algorithm.

The Boyer-Moore-Horspool searcher implements the Boyer-Moore-Horspool search algorithm.

In general, the Boyer-Moore searcher will use more memory and give better runtime performance than Boyer-Moore-Horspool.

🔗

constexpr default_searcher(ForwardIterator1 pat_first, ForwardIterator1 pat_last,
                           BinaryPredicate pred = BinaryPredicate());

Effects: Constructs a default_searcher object, initializing pat_first_ with pat_first, pat_last_ with pat_last, and pred_ with pred.

Throws: Any exception thrown by the copy constructor of BinaryPredicate or ForwardIterator1.

🔗

template<class ForwardIterator2>
  constexpr pair<ForwardIterator2, ForwardIterator2>
    operator()(ForwardIterator2 first, ForwardIterator2 last) const;

Effects: Returns a pair of iterators i and j such that

(3.1)
i == search(first, last, pat_first_, pat_last_, pred_), and
(3.2)
if i == last, then j == last, otherwise j == next(i, distance(pat_first_, pat_last_)).

🔗

boyer_moore_searcher(RandomAccessIterator1 pat_first,
                     RandomAccessIterator1 pat_last,
                     Hash hf = Hash(),

Preconditions: The value type of RandomAccessIterator1 meets the Cpp17DefaultConstructible, the Cpp17CopyConstructible, and the Cpp17CopyAssignable requirements.

Let V be iterator_traits<RandomAccessIterator1>::value_type.

For any two values A and B of type V, if pred(A, B) == true, then hf(A) == hf(B) is true.

Effects: Initializes pat_first_ with pat_first, pat_last_ with pat_last, hash_ with hf, and pred_ with pred.

Throws: Any exception thrown by the copy constructor of RandomAccessIterator1, or by the default constructor, copy constructor, or the copy assignment operator of the value type of RandomAccessIterator1, or the copy constructor or operator() of BinaryPredicate or Hash.

May throw bad_alloc if additional memory needed for internal data structures cannot be allocated.

🔗

template<class RandomAccessIterator2>
  pair<RandomAccessIterator2, RandomAccessIterator2>
    operator()(RandomAccessIterator2 first, RandomAccessIterator2 last) const;

Mandates: RandomAccessIterator1 and RandomAccessIterator2 have the same value type.

Effects: Finds a subsequence of equal values in a sequence.

Returns: A pair of iterators i and j such that

(7.1)
i is the first iterator in the range [first, last - (pat_last_ - pat_first_)) such that for every non-negative integer n less than pat_last_ - pat_first_ the following condition holds: pred(*(i + n), *(pat_first_ + n)) != false, and
(7.2)
j == next(i, distance(pat_first_, pat_last_)).

Returns make_pair(first, first) if [pat_first_, pat_last_) is empty, otherwise returns make_pair(last, last) if no such iterator is found.

Complexity: At most (last - first) * (pat_last_ - pat_first_) applications of the predicate.

22.10.19 Class template hash [unord.hash]

The unordered associative containers defined in [unord] use specializations of the class template hash ([functional.syn]) as the default hash function.

Each specialization of hash is either enabled or disabled, as described below.

[Note 1:

Enabled specializations meet the Cpp17Hash requirements, and disabled specializations do not.

— end note]

Each header that declares the template hash provides enabled specializations of hash for nullptr_t and all cv-unqualified arithmetic, enumeration, and pointer types.

For any type Key for which neither the library nor the user provides an explicit or partial specialization of the class template hash, hash<Key> is disabled.

If the library provides an explicit or partial specialization of hash<Key>, that specialization is enabled except as noted otherwise, and its member functions are noexcept except as noted otherwise.

If H is a disabled specialization of hash, these values are false: is_default_constructible_v<H>, is_copy_constructible_v<H>, is_move_constructible_v<H>, is_copy_assignable_v<H>, and is_move_assignable_v<H>.

Disabled specializations of hash are not function object types ([function.objects]).

[Note 2:

This means that the specialization of hash exists, but any attempts to use it as a Cpp17Hash will be ill-formed.

— end note]

An enabled specialization hash<Key> will:

(5.1)
meet the Cpp17Hash requirements (Table 37), with Key as the function call argument type, the Cpp17DefaultConstructible requirements (Table 30), the Cpp17CopyAssignable requirements (Table 34), the Cpp17Swappable requirements ([swappable.requirements]),
(5.2)
meet the requirement that if k1 == k2 is true, h(k1) == h(k2) is also true, where h is an object of type hash<Key> and k1 and k2 are objects of type Key;
(5.3)
meet the requirement that the expression h(k), where h is an object of type hash<Key> and k is an object of type Key, shall not throw an exception unless hash<Key> is a program-defined specialization.
