(since C++17) | |
Returns the zero-based index of the alternative that is currently held by the variant.
If the variant is valueless_by_exception
, returns variant_npos
Example
Run this code
#include <iostream> #include <string> #include <variant> int main() { std::variant<int, std::string> v = "abc"; std::cout << "v.index = " << v.index() << '\n'; v = {}; std::cout << "v.index = " << v.index() << '\n'; }
Output:
v.index = 1 v.index = 0
