static pointer pointer_to( element_type& r ) noexcept; |

Constructs a dereferenceable pointer or pointer-like object ("fancy pointer") to its argument.
1) The version of this function in the non-specialized std::pointer_traits template simply calls Ptr::pointer_to(r), and if Ptr does not provide a static member function pointer_to, instantiation of this function is a compile-time error.
2) The version of this function in the specialization of std::pointer_traits for pointer types returns std::addressof(r).
Parameters
| r | - | reference to an object of type element_type&, except if element_type is void, in which case the type of r is unspecified
|
Return value
A dereferenceable pointer to r, of the type pointer_traits<>::pointer.
Exceptions
1) Unspecified (typically same as Ptr::pointer_to).
Notes
The Boost.Intrusive library version of this function returns pointer(std::addressof(r)) if Ptr::pointer_to does not exist.
