std::uninitialized_value_construct

Defined in header `<memory>`
template< class ForwardIt > void uninitialized_value_construct( ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last);	(1)	(since C++17)
template< class ExecutionPolicy, class ForwardIt > void uninitialized_value_construct( ExecutionPolicy&& policy, ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last );	(2)	(since C++17)

Defined in header <memory>

template< class ForwardIt >
void uninitialized_value_construct( ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last);

(1)

(since C++17)

template< class ExecutionPolicy, class ForwardIt >
void uninitialized_value_construct( ExecutionPolicy&& policy, ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last );

(2)

(since C++17)

1) Constructs objects of type typename iterator_traits<ForwardIt>::value_type in the uninitialized storage designated by the range [first, last) by value-initialization, as if by

for (; first != last; ++first)
  ::new (static_cast<void*>(std::addressof(*first)))
      typename std::iterator_traits<ForwardIt>::value_type();

If an exception is thrown during the initialization, the function has no effects.

2) Same as (1), but executed according to policy. This overload does not participate in overload resolution unless std::is_execution_policy_v<std::decay_t<ExecutionPolicy>> is true

Parameters

first, last	-	the range of the elements to initialize
policy	-	the execution policy to use. See execution policy for details.
Type requirements
- `ForwardIt` must meet the requirements of `ForwardIterator`.
-No increment, assignment, comparison, or indirection through valid instances of `ForwardIt` may throw exceptions.

Return value

(none).

Complexity

Linear in the distance between first and last.

Exceptions

The overload with a template parameter named ExecutionPolicy reports errors as follows:

If execution of a function invoked as part of the algorithm throws an exception, std::terminate is called.
If the algorithm fails to allocate memory, std::bad_alloc is thrown.

Possible implementation

template<class ForwardIt>
void uninitialized_value_construct(ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last)
{
    typedef typename std::iterator_traits<ForwardIt>::value_type Value;
    ForwardIt current = first;
    try {
        for (; current != last; ++current) {
            ::new (static_cast<void*>(std::addressof(*current))) Value();
        }
    }  catch (...) {
        for (; first != current; ++first) {
            first->~Value();
        }
        throw;
    }
}

uninitialized_value_construct_n (C++17)	constructs objects by value-initialization in an uninitialized area of memory, defined by a start and a count (function template)
uninitialized_default_construct (C++17)	constructs objects by default-initialization in an uninitialized area of memory, defined by a range (function template)
