Constructs an object in allocated, but not initialized storage pointed to by p the provided constructor arguments. If the object is of type that itself uses allocators, or if it is std::pair, passes *this

1) Creates an object of the given type U by means of uses-allocator construction at the uninitialized memory location indicated by p, using *this as the allocator. This overload participates in overload resolution only if U is not a specialization of std::pair. (until C++20)
2) First, if either T1 or T2 is allocator-aware, modifies the tuples x and y to include this->resource(), resulting in the two new tuples xprime and yprime
2a) if T1 is not allocator-aware ( std::uses_allocator <T1, polymorphic_allocator> :: value == false ) and std::is_constructible <T1, Args1...> :: value == true , then xprime is x
2b) if T1 is allocator-aware ( std::uses_allocator <T1, polymorphic_allocator> :: value == true ), and its constructor takes an allocator tag ( std::is_constructible <T1, std::allocator_arg_t, polymorphic_allocator, Args1...> :: value == true , then xprime is std::tuple_cat ( std::make_tuple ( std::allocator_arg, *this), std:: move (x) )
2c) if T1 is allocator-aware ( std::uses_allocator <T1, polymorphic_allocator> :: value == true ), and its constructor takes the allocator as the last argument ( std::is_constructible <T1, Args1..., polymorphic_allocator> :: value == true ), then xprime is std::tuple_cat (std:: move (x), std::make_tuple ( *this) )
2d) Otherwise, the program is ill-formed.
Same rules apply to T2 and the replacement of y with yprime.
Once xprime and yprime are constructed, constructs the pair p in allocated storage as if by :: new ( ( void * ) p) pair<T1, T2> ( std::piecewise_construct, std:: move (xprime), std:: move (yprime) ) ;
3) Equivalent to construct(p, std::piecewise_construct, std::tuple <> ( ), std::tuple <> ( ) )

7) This overload participates in overload resolution only if given the exposition-only function template
template< class A, class B >
void /*deduce-as-pair*/( const std::pair<A, B>& );

, /*deduce-as-pair*/(non_pair)

construct<T1, T2, T1, T2>(p, std::forward<NonPair>(non_pair));
(until C++20)

Parameters

p - pointer to allocated, but not initialized storage
args... - the constructor arguments to pass to the constructor of T
x - the constructor arguments to pass to the constructor of T1
y - the constructor arguments to pass to the constructor of T2
xy - the pair whose two members are the constructor arguments for T1 and T2
non_pair - non-pair argument to convert to pair for further construction

Return value

(none)

Notes

This function is called (through std::allocator_traits) by any allocator-aware object, such as std::pmr::vector (or another std::vector that was given a std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator

Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

DR Applied to Behavior as published Correct behavior
LWG 2969 C++17 uses-allocator construction passed resource() passes *this
LWG 2975 C++17 first overload is mistakenly used for pair construction in some cases constrained to not accept pairs
LWG 3525 C++17 no overload could handle non-pair types convertible to pair reconstructing overload added
