remove_reference Class
The latest version of this topic can be found at remove_reference Class.
Makes non reference type from type.
Syntax
template <class T>
struct remove_reference;
template <class T>
using remove_reference_t = typename remove_reference<T>::type;
Parameters
T
The type to modify.
Remarks
An instance of remove_reference<T> holds a modified-type that is T1 when T is of the form T1&, otherwise T.
Example
#include <type_traits>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
int *p = (std::remove_reference_t<int&> *)0;
p = p; // to quiet "unused" warning
std::cout << "remove_reference_t<int&> == "
<< typeid(*p).name() << std::endl;
return (0);
}
remove_reference_t<int&> == int
