Defined in header <ranges>
template<class T>     requires std::is_object_v<T> class empty_view : public ranges::view_interface<empty_view<T>>	(1)	(since C++20)
namespace views {     template<class T> inline constexpr empty_view<T> empty{}; }	(2)	(since C++20)

1) A range adaptor that produces a view of no elements of a particular type.

2) Variable template for empty_view.

Helper templates

template<class T> inline constexpr bool enable_borrowed_range<ranges::empty_view<T>> = true;

This specialization of std::ranges::enable_borrowed_range makes empty_view satisfy borrowed_range.

Member functions

begin [static]	returns nullptr (public static member function)
end [static]	returns nullptr (public static member function)
data [static]	returns nullptr (public static member function)
size [static]	returns 0 (zero) (public static member function)
empty [static]	returns true (public static member function)

std::ranges::empty_view::begin

static constexpr T* begin() noexcept { return nullptr; }

empty_view does not reference any element.

std::ranges::empty_view::end

static constexpr T* end() noexcept { return nullptr; }

empty_view does not reference any element.

std::ranges::empty_view::data

static constexpr T* data() noexcept { return nullptr; }

empty_view does not reference any element.

std::ranges::empty_view::size

static constexpr std::size_t size() noexcept { return 0; }

empty_view is always empty.

std::ranges::empty_view::empty

static constexpr bool empty() noexcept { return true; }

empty_view is always empty.

Example

Run this code

#include <ranges>
 
int main()
{
    std::ranges::empty_view<long> e;
    static_assert(std::ranges::empty(e));
    static_assert(0 == e.size());
    static_assert(nullptr == e.data());
    static_assert(nullptr == e.begin());
    static_assert(nullptr == e.end());
}
