std::any::emplace

< cpp‎ | utility‎ | any
template< class T, class... Args >
void emplace( Args&&... args );
(1) (since C++17)
template< class T, class U, class... Args >
void emplace( std::initializer_list<U> il, Args&&... args );
(2) (since C++17)

Changes the contained object to one of type T constructed from the arguments.

First destroys the current contained object (if any) by reset(), then:

1) constructs an object of type T, direct-non-list-initialized from std::forward<Args>(args)..., as the contained object. If std::is_constructible_v<T, Args...> is false, the behavior is undefined.
2) constructs an object of type T, direct-non-list-initialized from il, std::forward<Args>(args)..., as the contained object. This overload only participates in overload resolution if std::is_constructible_v<T, std::initializer_list<U>&, Args...> is true.

[edit] Exceptions

Throws any exception thrown by T's constructor. If an exception is thrown, the previously contained object (if any) has been destroyed, and *this does not contain a value.
