std::greater_equal - cppreference.com

From cppreference.com

Defined in header <functional>

template< class T > struct greater_equal;

(until C++14)

template< class T = void > struct greater_equal;

(since C++14)

Function object for performing comparisons. The main template invokes operator>= on type T.

Specializations

function object implementing x >= y deducing parameter and return types
(class template specialization) [edit]

Member types

Type Definition
result_type (deprecated in C++17)(removed in C++20) bool
first_argument_type (deprecated in C++17)(removed in C++20) T
second_argument_type (deprecated in C++17)(removed in C++20) T

These member types are obtained via publicly inheriting std::binary_function<T, T, bool>.

(until C++11)

Member functions

checks if the first argument is greater than or equal to the second
(public member function)

std::greater_equal::operator()

bool operator()( const T& lhs, const T& rhs ) const;

(constexpr since C++14)

Checks whether lhs is greater than or equal to rhs.

Parameters

lhs, rhs - values to compare

Return value

lhs >= rhs.

If T is a pointer type, the result is consistent with the implementation-defined strict total order over pointers.

Exceptions

May throw implementation-defined exceptions.

Possible implementation

constexpr bool operator()(const T& lhs, const T& rhs) const 
{
    return lhs >= rhs; // assumes that the implementation handles pointer total order
}

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 2562 C++98 the pointer total order might be inconsistent guaranteed to be consistent
