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

| | | | | -------------------------------------------------------- | | ------------- | | [[noreturn]] void _Exit( int exit_code ) noexcept; | | (since C++11) |

Causes normal program termination to occur without completely cleaning the resources.

Destructors of variables with automatic, thread local and static storage durations are not called. Functions passed to std::at_quick_exit() or std::atexit() are not called. Whether open resources such as files are closed is implementation defined.

If exit_code is 0 or EXIT_SUCCESS, an implementation-defined status indicating successful termination is returned to the host environment. If exit_code is EXIT_FAILURE, an implementation-defined status, indicating unsuccessful termination, is returned. In other cases implementation-defined status value is returned.

A freestanding implementation is required to provide std::_Exit. (since C++23)

[edit] Parameters

exit_code - exit status of the program

[edit] Return value

(none)

[edit] Notes

Although _Exit is required to be freestanding since C++23, it is not required to be available in a freestanding C implementation.

[edit] Example

#include   class Static { public: ~Static() { std::cout << "Static dtor\n"; } };   class Local { public: ~Local() { std::cout << "Local dtor\n"; } };   Static static_variable; // dtor of this object will not be called   void atexit_handler() { std::cout << "atexit handler\n"; }   int main() { Local local_variable; // dtor of this object will not be called   // handler will not be called const int result = std::atexit(atexit_handler);   if (result != 0) { std::cerr << "atexit registration failed\n"; return EXIT_FAILURE; }   std::cout << "test" << std::endl; // flush from std::endl // needs to be here, otherwise nothing will be printed std::_Exit(EXIT_FAILURE); }
