// Function Template: WrapUnique()
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// Adopts ownership from a raw pointer and transfers it to the returned
// `std::unique_ptr`, whose type is deduced. Because of this deduction, *do not*
// specify the template type `T` when calling `WrapUnique`.
//
// Example:
//   X* NewX(int, int);
//   auto x = WrapUnique(NewX(1, 2));  // 'x' is std::unique_ptr<X>.
//
// Do not call WrapUnique with an explicit type, as in
// `WrapUnique<X>(NewX(1, 2))`.  The purpose of WrapUnique is to automatically
// deduce the pointer type. If you wish to make the type explicit, just use
// `std::unique_ptr` directly.
//
//   auto x = std::unique_ptr<X>(NewX(1, 2));
//                  - or -
//   std::unique_ptr<X> x(NewX(1, 2));
//
// While `absl::WrapUnique` is useful for capturing the output of a raw
// pointer factory, prefer 'absl::make_unique<T>(args...)' over
// 'absl::WrapUnique(new T(args...))'.
//
//   auto x = WrapUnique(new X(1, 2));  // works, but nonideal.
//   auto x = make_unique<X>(1, 2);     // safer, standard, avoids raw 'new'.
//
// Note that `absl::WrapUnique(p)` is valid only if `delete p` is a valid
// expression. In particular, `absl::WrapUnique()` cannot wrap pointers to
// arrays, functions or void, and it must not be used to capture pointers
// obtained from array-new expressions (even though that would compile!).
template <typename T>
std::unique_ptr<T> WrapUnique(T* ptr) {
  static_assert(!std::is_array<T>::value, "array types are unsupported");
  static_assert(std::is_object<T>::value, "non-object types are unsupported");
  return std::unique_ptr<T>(ptr);
}

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Function Template: make_unique<T>()
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// Creates a `std::unique_ptr<>`, while avoiding issues creating temporaries
// during the construction process. `absl::make_unique<>` also avoids redundant
// type declarations, by avoiding the need to explicitly use the `new` operator.
//
// https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/memory/unique_ptr/make_unique
//
// For more background on why `std::unique_ptr<T>(new T(a,b))` is problematic,
// see Herb Sutter's explanation on
// (Exception-Safe Function Calls)[https://herbsutter.com/gotw/_102/].
// (In general, reviewers should treat `new T(a,b)` with scrutiny.)
//
// Historical note: Abseil once provided a C++11 compatible implementation of
// the C++14's `std::make_unique`. Now that C++11 support has been sunsetted,
// `absl::make_unique` simply uses the STL-provided implementation. New code
// should use `std::make_unique`.
using std::make_unique;

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Function Template: RawPtr()
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// Extracts the raw pointer from a pointer-like value `ptr`. `absl::RawPtr` is
// useful within templates that need to handle a complement of raw pointers,
// `std::nullptr_t`, and smart pointers.
template <typename T>
auto RawPtr(T&& ptr) -> decltype(std::addressof(*ptr)) {
  // ptr is a forwarding reference to support Ts with non-const operators.

}
inline std::nullptr_t RawPtr(std::nullptr_t) { return nullptr; }

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Function Template: ShareUniquePtr()
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// Adopts a `std::unique_ptr` rvalue and returns a `std::shared_ptr` of deduced
// type. Ownership (if any) of the held value is transferred to the returned
// shared pointer.
//
// Example:
//
//     auto up = absl::make_unique<int>(10);
//     auto sp = absl::ShareUniquePtr(std::move(up));  // shared_ptr<int>
//     CHECK_EQ(*sp, 10);
//     CHECK(up == nullptr);
//
// Note that this conversion is correct even when T is an array type, and more
// generally it works for *any* deleter of the `unique_ptr` (single-object
// deleter, array deleter, or any custom deleter), since the deleter is adopted
// by the shared pointer as well. The deleter is copied (unless it is a
// reference).
//
// Implements the resolution of [LWG 2415](http://wg21.link/lwg2415), by which a
// null shared pointer does not attempt to call the deleter.
template <typename T, typename D>
std::shared_ptr<T> ShareUniquePtr(std::unique_ptr<T, D>&& ptr) {
  return ptr ? std::shared_ptr<T>(std::move(ptr)) : std::shared_ptr<T>();
}

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Function Template: WeakenPtr()
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// Creates a weak pointer associated with a given shared pointer. The returned
// value is a `std::weak_ptr` of deduced type.
//
// Example:
//
//    auto sp = std::make_shared<int>(10);
//    auto wp = absl::WeakenPtr(sp);
//    CHECK_EQ(sp.get(), wp.lock().get());
//    sp.reset();
//    CHECK(wp.lock() == nullptr);
//
