◆ addressof() [1/2]

template<typename T >

constexpr T* bsl::addressof ( T & val )

noexcept

Obtains the actual address of the object or function arg, even in presence of overloaded operator& (i.e., this should be used to get the address of an object instead of using & as that could be unsafe).

#include <bsl/addressof.hpp>
#include <bsl/debug.hpp>
namespace bsl
{
    inline void
    example_addressof_overview() noexcept
    {
        bool const mydata{};
        if (bsl::addressof(mydata) == &mydata) {
            bsl::print() << "success\n";
        }
    }
}

Template Parameters

T	the type of object to get the address of.

Parameters

val	the object of type T to get the address of.

Returns: Returns the address of val

◆ addressof() [2/2]

template<typename T >

T const* bsl::addressof ( T const && val )

delete

Prevents the user from getting an address to a const as that would allow you to get the address of an rvalue which could result in UB.

#include <bsl/addressof.hpp>
#include <bsl/debug.hpp>
namespace bsl
{
    inline void
    example_addressof_overview() noexcept
    {
        bool const mydata{};
        if (bsl::addressof(mydata) == &mydata) {
            bsl::print() << "success\n";
        }
    }
