eve::aligned_ptr< Type, Lanes > Struct Template Reference

Wrapper for non-owning aligned pointers. More...

#include <eve/memory/aligned_ptr.hpp>

Detailed Description

template<typename Type, typename Lanes = expected_cardinal_t<Type>>
struct eve::aligned_ptr< Type, Lanes >

Required header: #include <eve/memory/aligned_ptr.hpp>

aligned_ptr is a non-owning pointer that binds a preexisting aligned memory and prevent any alignment-altering operations to be performed. The bound pointer must be aligned so that it can be used to load at most Lanes element of type Type natively.

Rebinding to another pointer is allowed only if the new pointer's alignment is compatible with the current aligned_ptr constraints.

An aligned_ptr may alternatively own no object, in which case it is called empty.

Template Parameters

Type	Pointee type
Lanes	Alignment constraint to uphold. Default value is computed to be compatible with current SIMD ABI requirements.

Public Types
using	value_type = std::remove_const_t<Type>
	The value type associated to the held pointer.
using	pointer = std::add_pointer_t<Type>
	The NullablePointer type currently held.
template<typename T >
using	rebind = aligned_ptr<T,Lanes>
	Generate an aligned_ptr with a different type but same Lanes

Public Member Functions
Constructors
	aligned_ptr () noexcept
	Default constructor.
	aligned_ptr (std::nullptr_t) noexcept
	Set the held pointer to nullptr
	aligned_ptr (pointer p) noexcept
template<typename UType , typename L >
	aligned_ptr (aligned_ptr< UType, L > p) noexcept
	Construct an aligned_ptr from another one with a compatible alignment constraint.
Assignment operators
template<typename L >
aligned_ptr &	operator= (aligned_ptr< Type, L > p) noexcept
	Assign from another aligned_ptr with a compatible alignment constraint.
Pointer arithmetic
aligned_ptr &	operator+= (std::ptrdiff_t o) noexcept
	Add an offset to the held pointer. Behavior is undefined if the offset forces the pointer to become misaligned.
aligned_ptr &	operator-= (std::ptrdiff_t o) noexcept
	Substract an offset to the held pointer. Behavior is undefined if the offset forces the pointer to become misaligned.
aligned_ptr &	operator++ () noexcept
	Pre-increments the held pointer. Does not participate in overload resolution if Lanes != 1
aligned_ptr	operator++ (int) noexcept
	Post-increments the held pointer. Does not participate in overload resolution if Lanes != 1
aligned_ptr &	operator-- () noexcept
	Pre-decrements the held pointer. Does not participate in overload resolution if Lanes != 1
aligned_ptr	operator-- (int) noexcept
	Post-decrements the held pointer. Does not participate in overload resolution if Lanes != 1
Other members
void	swap (aligned_ptr &that) noexcept
	Exchanges the content of the aligned_ptr with those of that.
auto	operator<=> (const aligned_ptr< Type, Lanes > &) const =default
	Compares aligned_ptr lexicographically.
Observers
	operator bool () const noexcept
	Checks if there is an associated held object.
	operator pointer () const noexcept
	Returns the pointer to the held object.
pointer	get () const noexcept
	Returns the pointer to the held object.
decltype(auto)	operator* () const noexcept
	Dereferences pointer to the held object.
decltype(auto)	operator* () noexcept
	Dereferences pointer to the held object.
decltype(auto)	operator-> () const noexcept
	Dereferences pointer to the held object.
decltype(auto)	operator-> () noexcept
	Dereferences pointer to the held object.

Static Public Member Functions
static constexpr auto	alignment () noexcept
	Return the value of the alignment constraint.
