std::experimental::optional::swap - cppreference.com (original) (raw)

| void swap( optional& other ) noexcept(/* see below */); | | (library fundamentals TS) | | --------------------------------------------------------- | | ------------------------- |

Swaps the contents with those of other.

• If neither *this nor other contain a value, the function has no effect.
• If only one of *this and other contains a value (let's call this object in and the other un), the contained value of un is direct-initialized from std::move(*in), followed by destruction of the contained value of in as if by in.val->T::~T(). After this call, in does not contain a value un contains a value.
• If both *this and other contain values, the contained values are exchanged by calling using std::swap; swap(**this, *other). T lvalues must satisfy Swappable.

[edit] Return value

(none)

[edit] Exceptions

In the case of thrown exception, the states of the contained values of *this and other are determined by the exception safety guarantees of swap of type T or T's move constructor, whichever is called. For both *this and other, if the object contained a value, it is left containing a value, and the other way round.
