我们可以假设 std::is_default_constructible<t> 和 std::is_constructible<t> 平等吗？</t></t>

Question

Pretty short question here:

Will std::is_default_constructible<T> and std::is_constructible<T> give the same result? And what about to the new concepts std::default_initializable and std::constructible_from .

It might be important to know the distinctions when making templated factory or emplace functions.

Answer 1

So I finally got to reading the specification. Here's what I found:

20.15.4.3 is_default_constructible<T> :

As pointed out by @Raymon Chen in the comments: true precisely when is_constructible<T> holds true .

18.4.11 constructible_from<T> :

Is defined in term of is_constructible<T> , but also poses the additional requirement destructible<T> .

18.4.12 default_initializable<T> :

Is defined in term of constructible_from<T> , but also requires T{} to be well-formed. Defining a variable of type T must be possible too; Ie the statement T var{}; should be well-formed.
