<memory>

Defines a class, an operator, and several templates that help allocate and free objects.

#include <memory>

Members

Functions

allocate_shared

Creates a shared_ptr to objects that are allocated and constructed for a given type with a specified allocator.

checked_uninitialized_copy

Same as uninitialized_copy but enforces the use of a checked iterator as output iterator.

checked_uninitialized_fill_n

Same as uninitialized_fill_n but enforces the use of a checked iterator as output iterator.

const_pointer_cast

Const cast to shared_ptr.

declare_no_pointers

Informs a garbage collector that the characters starting at a specified address and falling within the indicated block size contain no traceable pointers.

declare_reachable

Informs garbage collection that the indicated address is to allocated storage and is reachable.

default_delete

Deletes objects allocated with operator new. Suitable for use with unique_ptr.

dynamic_pointer_cast

Dynamic cast to shared_ptr.

get_deleter

Get deleter from shared_ptr.

get_pointer_safety

Returns the type of pointer safety assumed by any garbage collector.

get_temporary_buffer

Allocates temporary storage for a sequence of elements that does not exceed a specified number of elements.

make_shared

Creates and returns a shared_ptr that points to the allocated objects constructed from zero or more arguments using the default allocator.

owner_less

Allows ownership-based mixed comparisons of shared and weak pointers.

pointer_safety

An enumeration of all the possible return values for get_pointer_safety.

return_temporary_buffer

Deallocates the temporary memory that was allocated using the get_temporary_buffer template function.

static_pointer_cast

Static cast to shared_ptr.

swap

Swap two shared_ptr or weak_ptr objects.

unchecked_uninitialized_copy

Same as uninitialized_copy but allows the use of an unchecked iterator as output iterator when _SECURE_SCL=1 is defined.

unchecked_uninitialized_fill_n

Same as uninitialized_fill_n but allows the use of an unchecked iterator as output iterator when _SECURE_SCL=1 is defined.

undeclare_no_pointers

Informs a garbage collector that the characters in the memory block defined by a base address pointer and block size may now contain traceable pointers.

undeclare_reachable

Informs a garbage_collector that a specified memory location is not reachable.

uninitialized_copy

Copies objects from a specified input range into an uninitialized destination range.

uninitialized_copy_n

Creates a copy of a specified number of elements from an input iterator. The copies are put in a forward iterator.

uninitialized_fill

Copies objects of a specified value into an uninitialized destination range.

uninitialized_fill_n

Copies objects of a specified value into specified number of elements an uninitialized destination range.

Operators

operator!=

Tests for inequality between allocator objects of a specified class.

operator==

Tests for equality between allocator objects of a specified class.

operator>=

Tests for one allocator object being greater than or equal to a second allocator object, of a specified class.

operator<

Tests for one object being less than a second object of a specified class.

operator<=

Tests for one object being less than or equal to a second object of a specified class.

operator>

Tests for one object being greater than a second object of a specified class.

operator<<

shared_ptr inserter.

Classes

allocator

The template class describes an object that manages storage allocation and freeing for arrays of objects of type Type.

allocator_traits

Describes an object that determines all the information that is needed by an allocator-enabled container.

auto_ptr

The template class describes an object that stores a pointer to an allocated object of type Type * that ensures the object to which it points gets deleted when its enclosing auto_ptr gets destroyed.

bad_weak_ptr

Reports bad weak_ptr exception.

enabled_shared_from_this

Helps generate a shared_ptr.

pointer_traits

Supplies information that is needed by an object of template class allocator_traits to describe an allocator with pointer type Ptr.

raw_storage_iterator

An adaptor class that is provided to enable algorithms to store their results into uninitialized memory.

shared_ptr

Wraps a reference-counted smart pointer around a dynamically allocated object.

unique_ptr

Stores a pointer to an owned object. The pointer is owned by no other unique_ptr. The unique_ptr is destroyed when the owner is destroyed.

weak_ptr

Wraps a weakly linked pointer.

Specializations

allocator<void>

A specialization of the template class allocator to type void, defining the only the member types that make sense in this specialized context.
