Defined in header <type_traits>
template< class T > struct add_pointer;		(since C++11)

Provides the member typedef type which is the type T*. If T is a reference type, then type is a pointer to the referred type.

Member types

Name	Definition
type	pointer to T or to the type referenced by T

Possible implementation

template< class T > struct add_pointer { typedef typename std::remove_reference<T>::type* type; };
