allocator::address

Finds the address of an object whose value is specified.

pointer address( 
   reference _Val 
   ) const; 
const_pointer address( 
   const_reference _Val 
   ) const;

Parameters

• _Val
  The const or nonconst value of the object whose address is being searched for.

Return Value

A const or nonconst pointer to the object found of, respectively, const or nonconst value.

Remarks

The member functions return the address of _Val, in the form that pointers must take for allocated elements.

Example

// allocator_address.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <memory>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>

using namespace std;

int main( ) 
{
   vector <int> v1;
   vector <int>::iterator v1Iter;
   vector <int>:: allocator_type v1Alloc;

   int i;
   for ( i = 1 ; i <= 7 ; i++ )
   {
      v1.push_back( 2 * i );
   }

   cout << "The original vector v1 is:\n ( " ;
   for ( v1Iter = v1.begin( ) ; v1Iter != v1.end( ) ; v1Iter++ )
      cout << *v1Iter << " ";
   cout << ")." << endl;

   allocator<int>::const_pointer v1Ptr;
   const int k = 8;
   v1Ptr = v1Alloc.address( *find(v1.begin( ), v1.end( ), k) );
   // v1Ptr = v1Alloc.address( k );
   cout << "The integer addressed by v1Ptr has a value of: "
        << "*v1Ptr = " << *v1Ptr << "." << endl;
}

The original vector v1 is:
 ( 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 ).
The integer addressed by v1Ptr has a value of: *v1Ptr = 8.
