template<classNoThrowForwardIt>voiduninitialized_value_construct(NoThrowForwardItfirst,NoThrowForwardItlast); (1)(since C++17)
(constexpr since C++26)template<classExecutionPolicy,classNoThrowForwardIt>voiduninitialized_value_construct(ExecutionPolicy&&policy,NoThrowForwardItfirst,NoThrowForwardItlast); (2) (since C++17)1) Constructs elements in the destination range [first, last) by
as if by
for(;first!=last;++first)
::new(
(*first))
typenamestd::iterator_traits<NoThrowForwardIt>::value_type();
If an exception is thrown during the initialization, the objects already constructed are destroyed in an unspecified order.
2) Same as (1), but executed according to policy.
This overload participates in overload resolution only if the value of the following expression is true:
std::is_execution_policy_v<std::decay_t<ExecutionPolicy>>
(until C++20)std::is_execution_policy_v<std::remove_cvref_t<ExecutionPolicy>>
(since C++20)Parameters
first, last - the pair of iterators defining the
of elements to initialize policy - the
to use Type requirements -NoThrowForwardIt must meet the requirements of
. -No increment, assignment, comparison, or indirection through valid instances of NoThrowForwardIt may throw exceptions. Exceptions
2) During the execution process:
If the temporary memory resources required for parallelization are not available,
is thrown.
If an uncaught exception is thrown while accessing objects via an algorithm argument, the behavior is determined by the execution policy (for
