The std::placeholders
namespace contains the placeholder objects [_1, . . . _N]
where N
is an implementation defined maximum number.
When used as an argument in a std::bind
expression, the placeholder objects are stored in the generated function object, and when that function object is invoked with unbound arguments, each placeholder _N
is replaced by the corresponding Nth unbound argument.
Each placeholder is declared as if by | (until C++17) |
Implementations are encouraged to declare the placeholders as if by | (since C++17) |
The types of the placeholder objects are DefaultConstructible
and CopyConstructible
, their default copy/move constructors do not throw exceptions, and for any placeholder _N
, the type std::is_placeholder<decltype(_N)>
is defined and is derived from std::integral_constant<int, N>
.
The following code shows the creation of function objects with a placeholder argument.
#include <functional> #include <string> #include <iostream> void goodbye(const std::string& s) { std::cout << "Goodbye " << s << '\n'; } class Object { public: void hello(const std::string& s) { std::cout << "Hello " << s << '\n'; } }; int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { typedef std::function<void(const std::string&)> ExampleFunction; Object instance; std::string str("World"); ExampleFunction f = std::bind(&Object::hello, &instance, std::placeholders::_1); // equivalent to instance.hello(str) f(str); f = std::bind(&goodbye, std::placeholders::_1); // equivalent to goodbye(str) f(str); return 0; }
Output:
Hello World Goodbye World
(C++11)
| binds one or more arguments to a function object (function template) |
(C++11)
| indicates that an object is a standard placeholder or can be used as one (class template) |
