constexpr ranges:: view auto as_rvalue ( R && r ) ;
(since C++23)
1) A range adaptor that represents a view of underlying view whose elements are rvalues.
2) RangeAdaptorObject . Let e be a subexpression and let T be decltype ( ( e ) ) . Then the expression views :: as_rvalue ( e ) is expression-equivalent to:

Data members

Member object Definition
base_ (private) The underlying view of type V .
( exposition-only member object* )

Member functions

constructs an as_rvalue_view
(public member function)
returns the underlying view V
(public member function)
returns the beginning iterator of the as_rvalue_view
(public member function)
returns the end iterator of the as_rvalue_view
(public member function)
returns the size of the view if it is bounded
(public member function)
Inherited from std::ranges::view_interface
returns whether the derived view is empty. Provided if it satisfies sized_range or forward_range .
(public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D> )
(C++23)
returns a constant iterator to the beginning of the range.
(public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D> )
(C++23)
returns a sentinel for the constant iterator of the range.
(public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D> )
returns whether the derived view is not empty. Provided if ranges::empty is applicable to it.
(public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D> )
returns the first element in the derived view. Provided if it satisfies forward_range .
(public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D> )
returns the last element in the derived view. Provided if it satisfies bidirectional_range and common_range .
(public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D> )
returns the n th element in the derived view. Provided if it satisfies random_access_range .
(public member function of std::ranges::view_interface<D> )

std::ranges::as_rvalue_view:: as_rvalue_view

as_rvalue_view ( ) requires std:: default_initializable < V > = default ;
(1) (since C++23)
constexpr explicit as_rvalue_view ( V base ) ;
(2) (since C++23)
1) Value-initializes base_ via its default member initializer ( = V ( ) ).
2) Initializes base_ with std :: move ( base ) .

Parameters

base - a view

std::ranges::as_rvalue_view:: base

constexpr V base ( ) const & requires std:: copy_constructible < V > ;
(1) (since C++23)
constexpr V base ( ) && ;
(2) (since C++23)

Returns the underlying view.

1) Copy-constructs the result from the underlying view. Equivalent to return base_ ; .
2) Move-constructs the result from the underlying view. Equivalent to return std :: move ( base_ ) ; .

std::ranges::as_rvalue_view:: begin

constexpr auto begin ( ) requires ( ! /*simple-view*/ < V > ) ;
(1) (since C++23)
constexpr auto begin ( ) const requires ranges:: range < const V > ;
(2) (since C++23)
1,2) Returns std:: move_iterator ( ranges:: begin ( base_ ) ) .

std::ranges::as_rvalue_view:: end

constexpr auto end ( ) requires ( ! /*simple-view*/ < V > ) ;
(1) (since C++23)
constexpr auto end ( ) const requires ranges:: range < const V > ;
(2) (since C++23)
1) Returns std:: move_iterator ( ranges:: end ( base_ ) ) if V models common_range , otherwise std:: move_sentinel ( ranges:: end ( base_ ) ) .
2) Returns std:: move_iterator ( ranges:: end ( base_ ) ) if const V models common_range , otherwise std:: move_sentinel ( ranges:: end ( base_ ) ) .

std::ranges::as_rvalue_view:: size

constexpr auto size ( ) requires ranges:: sized_range < V > ;
(1) (since C++23)
constexpr auto size ( ) const requires ranges:: sized_range < const V > ;
(2) (since C++23)

Returns the size of the view if the view is bounded.

1,2) Equivalent to return ranges:: size ( base_ ) ;

Deduction guides

template < class R >
as_rvalue_view ( R && ) - > as_rvalue_view < views:: all_t < R >> ;
(since C++23)

Helper templates

template < class T >

constexpr bool enable_borrowed_range < std :: ranges :: as_rvalue_view < T >> =

ranges:: enable_borrowed_range < T > ;
(since C++23)

This specialization of std::ranges::enable_borrowed_range makes as_rvalue_view satisfy borrowed_range when the underlying view satisfies it.

Example

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <ranges>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
 
int main()
{
    std::vector<std::string> words =
        {"the", "quick", "brown", "\N{FOX FACE}", "ate", "an", "archeopteryx"};
    std::vector<std::string> new_words;
 
    std::ranges::copy(
        words | std::views::as_rvalue,
        std::back_inserter(new_words)); // move string from words into new_words
 
    auto quoted = std::views::transform([](auto&& s) { return "“" + s + "”"; });
 
    std::cout << "Words: ";
    for (auto&& word : words | std::views::as_rvalue | quoted)
        std::cout << word << ' ';
 
    std::cout << "\nNew words: ";
    for (auto&& word : new_words | std::views::as_rvalue | quoted)
        std::cout << word << ' ';
}

Possible output:

Words: “” “” “” “” “” “” “” 
New words: “the” “quick” “brown” “🦊” “ate” “an” “archeopteryx”
