std::allocator<T>::deallocate
From cppreference.com
void deallocate( T* p, std::size_t n ); |
(constexpr since C++20) | |
Deallocates the storage referenced by the pointer p, which must be a pointer obtained by an earlier call to allocate() or allocate_at_least()
(since C++23).
The argument n must be equal to the first argument of the call to allocate() that originally produced p, or in the range [
m,
count]
if p is obtained from a call to allocate_at_least(m) which returned {p, count}(since C++23); otherwise, the behavior is undefined.
Calls ::operator delete(void*) or ::operator delete(void*, std::align_val_t)(since C++17), but it is unspecified when and how it is called.
In evaluation of a constant expression, this function must deallocate storage allocated within the evaluation of the same expression. |

[edit] Parameters
p | - | pointer obtained from allocate() or allocate_at_least() (since C++23)
|
n | - | number of objects earlier passed to allocate(), or a number between requested and actually allocated number of objects via allocate_at_least() (may be equal to either bound)(since C++23)

(none)
[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <algorithm> #include <cstddef> #include <iostream> #include <memory> #include <string> class S { inline static int n{1}; int m{}; void pre() const { std::cout << "#" << m << std::string(m, ' '); } public: S(int x) : m{n++} { pre(); std::cout << "S::S(" << x << ");\n"; } ~S() { pre(); std::cout << "S::~S();\n"; } void id() const { pre(); std::cout << "S::id();\n"; } }; int main() { constexpr std::size_t n{4}; std::allocator<S> allocator; try { S* s = allocator.allocate(n); // may throw for (std::size_t i{}; i != n; ++i) { // allocator.construct(&s[i], i + 42); // removed in C++20 std::construct_at(&s[i], i + 42); // since C++20 } std::for_each_n(s, n, [](const auto& e) { e.id(); }); std::destroy_n(s, n); allocator.deallocate(s, n); } catch (std::bad_array_new_length const& ex) { std::cout << ex.what() << '\n'; } catch (std::bad_alloc const& ex) { std::cout << ex.what() << '\n'; } }
Output:
#1 S::S(42); #2 S::S(43); #3 S::S(44); #4 S::S(45); #1 S::id(); #2 S::id(); #3 S::id(); #4 S::id(); #1 S::~S(); #2 S::~S(); #3 S::~S(); #4 S::~S();
