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

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

Provides the member typedef type which is the type pointed to by T, or, if T is not a pointer, then type is the same as T.

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