C++ named requirements: DefaultInsertable
Specifies that an instance of the type can be default-constructed in-place by a given allocator.
Requirements
The type T
is DefaultInsertable into the Container X
whose value_type
is identical to T
if, given
A
|
an allocator type |
m
|
an lvalue of type A
|
p
|
the pointer of type T* prepared by the container
|
where X::allocator_type
is identical to std::allocator_traits<A>::rebind_alloc<T>,
the following expression is well-formed:
std::allocator_traits<A>::construct(m, p);
If X
is not allocator-aware or is a std::basic_string specialization, the term is defined as if A
were std::allocator<T>, except that no allocator object needs to be created, and user-defined specializations of std::allocator are not instantiated.
Notes
By default, this will call placement-new, as by ::new((void*)p) T() (until C++20)std::construct_at(p) (since C++20) (that is, value-initialize the object pointed to by p
). If value-initialization is undesirable, for example, if the object is of non-class type and zeroing out is not needed, it can be avoided by providing a custom Allocator::construct
.
Although it is required that customized construct
is used when constructing elements of std::basic_string until C++23, all implementations only used the default mechanism. The requirement is corrected by P1072R10 to match existing practice.
