Compares two values using 3-way comparison and produces a result of type std::partial_ordering

Let t and u be expressions and T and U denote decltype((t)) and decltype((u)) respectively, std::partial_order(t, u) is expression-equivalent to:

Contents

Expression-equivalent

Expression e is expression-equivalent to expression f, if

  • e and f have the same effects, and
  • either both are constant subexpressions or else neither is a constant subexpression, and
  • either both are potentially-throwing or else neither is potentially-throwing (i.e. noexcept(e) == noexcept(f)).

Customization point objects

The name std::partial_order denotes a customization point object, which is a const function object of a literal semiregular class type. For exposition purposes, the cv-unqualified version of its type is denoted as __partial_order_fn.

All instances of __partial_order_fn are equal. The effects of invoking different instances of type __partial_order_fn on the same arguments are equivalent, regardless of whether the expression denoting the instance is an lvalue or rvalue, and is const-qualified or not (however, a volatile-qualified instance is not required to be invocable). Thus, std::partial_order can be copied freely and its copies can be used interchangeably.

Given a set of types Args..., if std::declval<Args>()... meet the requirements for arguments to std::partial_order above, __partial_order_fn models

Otherwise, no function call operator of __partial_order_fn participates in overload resolution.
