pointer_safety

The enumeration of possible values returned by get_pointer_safety.

enum pointer_safety {
    relaxed, 
    preferred, 
    strict
    };

Remarks

The scoped enum defines the values that can be returned by get_pointer_safety():

relaxed -- pointers not safely derived (obviously pointers to declared or allocated objects) are treated the same as those safely derived.

preferred -- as before, but pointers not safely derived should not be dereferenced.

strict -- pointers not safely derived might be treated differently than those safely derived.
