struct equal_to;
(since C++20)

Function object for performing comparisons. The parameter types of the function call operator (but not the return type) are deduced from the arguments.

std::ranges::equal_to::operator()

template < class T, class U >
constexpr bool operator( ) ( T&& t, U&& u ) const ;

Given the expression std::forward <T> (t) == std::forward <U> (u) as expr

  • Otherwise:

This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::equality_comparable_with<T, U>

Notes

Compared to std::equal_to, std::ranges::equal_to additionally requires != to be valid, and that both argument types are required to be (homogeneously) comparable with themselves (via the equality_comparable_with

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 3530 C++20 syntactic checks were relaxed while comparing pointers only semantic requirements are relaxed
