std::experimental::nullopt_t: std::experimental::nullopt_t

NAME

std::experimental::nullopt_t - std::experimental::nullopt_t

Synopsis


Defined in header <experimental/optional>
struct nullopt_t; (library fundamentals TS)


std::experimental::nullopt_t is an empty class type used to indicate optional type with uninitialized state. In particular, std::experimental::optional has a constructor with nullopt_t as a single argument, which creates an optional that does not contain a value.
std::experimental::nullopt_t must be a LiteralType and cannot have a default constructor.
It must have a constexpr constructor that takes some implementation-defined literal type.

Notes


nullopt_t is not DefaultConstructible to support both op = {}; and op = nullopt; as the syntax for disengaging an optional object.
A possible implementation of this class is


  struct nullopt_t {
      constexpr nullopt_t(int) {}
  };
