std::experimental:: shared_ptr

From cppreference.com
Defined in header <experimental/memory>
template < class T > class shared_ptr ;
(library fundamentals TS)

std::experimental::shared_ptr is a modified version of std::shared_ptr that adds support for arrays.

Member types

Member type Definition
element_type std:: remove_extent_t < T >

Member functions

constructs new shared_ptr
(public member function)
Observers
returns the stored pointer
(public member function)
dereferences the stored pointer
(public member function)
provides index access to the array
(public member function)

Non-member functions

applies static_cast , dynamic_cast , const_cast , or reinterpret_cast to the stored pointer
(function template)

Helper classes

hash support for std::experimental::shared_ptr
(class template specialization)

Members and non-members identical to std:: shared_ptr

Member functions

The following member functions work with std::experimental::shared_ptr instead of std::shared_ptr and std::experimental::weak_ptr instead of std::weak_ptr . The behavior is otherwise identical.

destructs the owned object if no more shared_ptr s link to it
(public member function of std::shared_ptr<T> )
assigns the shared_ptr
(public member function of std::shared_ptr<T> )
Modifiers
replaces the managed object
(public member function of std::shared_ptr<T> )
swaps the managed objects
(public member function of std::shared_ptr<T> )
Observers
returns the number of shared_ptr objects referring to the same managed object
(public member function of std::shared_ptr<T> )
(until C++20)
checks whether the managed object is managed only by the current shared_ptr object
(public member function of std::shared_ptr<T> )
checks if the stored pointer is not null
(public member function of std::shared_ptr<T> )
provides owner-based ordering of shared pointers
(public member function of std::shared_ptr<T> )

Non-member functions

These non-member functions are declared in the std::experimental namespace, and work with std::experimental::shared_ptr rather than std::shared_ptr , but otherwise behaves identically to the corresponding C++14 function.

creates a shared pointer that manages a new object
(function template)
creates a shared pointer that manages a new object allocated using an allocator
(function template)
returns the deleter of specified type, if owned
(function template)
(removed in C++20) (removed in C++20) (removed in C++20) (removed in C++20) (removed in C++20) (C++20)
compares with another shared_ptr or with nullptr
(function template)
outputs the value of the stored pointer to an output stream
(function template)
specializes the std::swap algorithm
(function template)
specializes atomic operations for std::shared_ptr
(function template)

Helper class templates

These class templates are declared in the std::experimental namespace, and work with std::experimental::shared_ptr and std::experimental::weak_ptr rather than std::shared_ptr and std::weak_ptr , but otherwise behaves identically to the corresponding C++14 class template.

(C++11)
provides mixed-type owner-based ordering of shared and weak pointers
(class template)
allows an object to create a shared_ptr referring to itself
(class template)
