51 | | // implicit_cast() |
52 | | // |
53 | | // Performs an implicit conversion between types following the language |
54 | | // rules for implicit conversion; if an implicit conversion is otherwise |
55 | | // allowed by the language in the given context, this function performs such an |
56 | | // implicit conversion. |
57 | | // |
58 | | // Example: |
59 | | // |
60 | | // // If the context allows implicit conversion: |
61 | | // From from; |
62 | | // To to = from; |
63 | | // |
64 | | // // Such code can be replaced by: |
65 | | // implicit_cast<To>(from); |
66 | | // |
67 | | // An `implicit_cast()` may also be used to annotate numeric type conversions |
68 | | // that, although safe, may produce compiler warnings (such as `long` to `int`). |
69 | | // Additionally, an `implicit_cast()` is also useful within return statements to |
70 | | // indicate a specific implicit conversion is being undertaken. |
71 | | // |
72 | | // Example: |
73 | | // |
74 | | // return implicit_cast<double>(size_in_bytes) / capacity_; |
75 | | // |
76 | | // Annotating code with `implicit_cast()` allows you to explicitly select |
77 | | // particular overloads and template instantiations, while providing a safer |
78 | | // cast than `reinterpret_cast()` or `static_cast()`. |
79 | | // |
80 | | // Additionally, an `implicit_cast()` can be used to allow upcasting within a |
81 | | // type hierarchy where incorrect use of `static_cast()` could accidentally |
82 | | // allow downcasting. |
83 | | // |
84 | | // Finally, an `implicit_cast()` can be used to perform implicit conversions |
85 | | // from unrelated types that otherwise couldn't be implicitly cast directly; |
86 | | // C++ will normally only implicitly cast "one step" in such conversions. |
87 | | // |
88 | | // That is, if C is a type which can be implicitly converted to B, with B being |
89 | | // a type that can be implicitly converted to A, an `implicit_cast()` can be |
90 | | // used to convert C to B (which the compiler can then implicitly convert to A |
91 | | // using language rules). |
92 | | // |
93 | | // Example: |
94 | | // |
95 | | // // Assume an object C is convertible to B, which is implicitly convertible |
96 | | // // to A |
97 | | // A a = implicit_cast<B>(C); |
98 | | // |
99 | | // Such implicit cast chaining may be useful within template logic. |

126 | | // every bit in the value representation of the result is equal to the |
127 | | // corresponding bit in the object representation of the source). Source and |
128 | | // destination types must be of the same size, and both types must be trivially |
129 | | // copyable. |
130 | | // |
131 | | // As with most casts, use with caution. A `bit_cast()` might be needed when you |
132 | | // need to treat a value as the value of some other type, for example, to access |
133 | | // the individual bits of an object which are not normally accessible through |
134 | | // the object's type, such as for working with the binary representation of a |
135 | | // floating point value: |
136 | | // |
137 | | // float f = 3.14159265358979; |
138 | | // int i = bit_cast<int>(f); |
139 | | // // i = 0x40490fdb |
140 | | // |
141 | | // Reinterpreting and accessing a value directly as a different type (as shown |
142 | | // below) usually results in undefined behavior. |
143 | | // |
144 | | // Example: |
145 | | // |
146 | | // // WRONG |
147 | | // float f = 3.14159265358979; |
148 | | // int i = reinterpret_cast<int&>(f); // Wrong |
149 | | // int j = *reinterpret_cast<int*>(&f); // Equally wrong |
150 | | // int k = *bit_cast<int*>(&f); // Equally wrong |
151 | | // |
152 | | // Reinterpret-casting results in undefined behavior according to the ISO C++ |
153 | | // specification, section [basic.lval]. Roughly, this section says: if an object |
154 | | // in memory has one type, and a program accesses it with a different type, the |
155 | | // result is undefined behavior for most "different type". |
156 | | // |
157 | | // Using bit_cast on a pointer and then dereferencing it is no better than using |
158 | | // reinterpret_cast. You should only use bit_cast on the value itself. |
159 | | // |
160 | | // Such casting results in type punning: holding an object in memory of one type |
161 | | // and reading its bits back using a different type. A `bit_cast()` avoids this |
162 | | // issue by copying the object representation to a new value, which avoids |
163 | | // introducing this undefined behavior (since the original value is never |
164 | | // accessed in the wrong way). |
165 | | // |
166 | | // The requirements of `absl::bit_cast` are more strict than that of |
167 | | // `std::bit_cast` unless compiler support is available. Specifically, without |
168 | | // compiler support, this implementation also requires `Dest` to be |
169 | | // default-constructible. In C++20, `absl::bit_cast` is replaced by |
