std::destroy

Defined in header <memory>

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

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

(1)

(since C++17)

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

(2)

(since C++17)

1) Destroys the objects in the range [first, last), as if by

for (; first != last; ++first)
  std::destroy_at(std::addressof(*first));

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 elements to destroy
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 and ExecutionPolicy is one of the three standard policies, std::terminate is called. For any other ExecutionPolicy, the behavior is implementation-defined.
If the algorithm fails to allocate memory, std::bad_alloc is thrown.

Possible implementation

template< class ForwardIt >
void destroy( ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last )
{
  for (; first != last; ++first)
    std::destroy_at(std::addressof(*first));
}

destroy_n (C++17)	destroys a number of objects in a range (function template)
destroy_at (C++17)	destroys an object at a given address (function template)
