std::make_signed - cppreference.com (original) (raw)

| | | | | ----------------------------------------- | | ------------- | | template< class T > struct make_signed; | | (since C++11) |

If T is an integral (except bool) or enumeration type, provides the member typedef type which is the signed integer type corresponding to T, with the same cv-qualifiers.

If T is signed or unsigned char, short, int, long, long long, the signed type from this list corresponding to T is provided.

If T is an enumeration type or char, wchar_t, char8_t(since C++20), char16_t, char32_t, the signed integer type with the smallest rank having the same sizeof as T is provided.

Otherwise, the behavior is undefined. (until C++20)
Otherwise, the program is ill-formed. (since C++20)

If the program adds specializations for std::make_signed, the behavior is undefined.
