BloombergLP::bslstl::Optional_DataImp

Component-private buffer managing an optional's contained value.

Synopsis

Declared in <bslstl_optional.h>

template<class t_TYPE>
struct Optional_DataImp;

Description

This component-private struct manages a value_type object in an Optional_Base object. This class provides an abstraction for const value type. An Optional_Base object may contain an object of const type. An assignment to such an Optional_Base object should not succeed. However, unless the Optional_Base object itself is const, it should be possible to change the value of the Optional_Base object using emplace. In order to allow for that, this class manages a non-const object of value_type, but all the accessors return a const adjusted reference to the managed object.
