Defined in header <memory>
template< class Pointer, class SizeType = std::size_t >
struct allocation_result;
(since C++23)

allocation_result specializations are returned from the allocate_at_least member function of appropriate Allocator types (e.g. std::allocator::allocate_at_least) and std::allocator_traits::allocate_at_least.

Every specialization of allocation_result has no base classes or declared members other than ptr and count, thus it is suitable for aggregate initialization and structured binding.

Contents

[edit] Template parameters

Pointer - typically std::allocator_traits<Alloc>::pointer, where Alloc is an Allocator type
SizeType - typically std::allocator_traits<Alloc>::size_type, where Alloc is an Allocator type

[edit] Data members

Member name Definition
ptr
a pointer of type Pointer which is typically used for the address of the first element in the storage allocated by allocate_at_least
(public member object)
count
a value of type SizeType which is typically used for the actual number of elements in the storage allocated by allocate_at_least
(public member object)

[edit] Notes

Pointer and SizeType are a pointer to an object type and std::make_unsigned_t<std::ptrdiff_t> (which is almost always same as std::size_t) by default.
