void swap(path& lhs, path& rhs) noexcept;

Effects: Equivalent to lhs.swap(rhs).

size_t hash_value(const path& p) noexcept;

Returns: A hash value for the path p.

If for two paths, p1 == p2 then hash_value(p1) == hash_value(p2).

friend bool operator==(const path& lhs, const path& rhs) noexcept;

Returns: lhs.compare(rhs) == 0.

[Note 1:

Path equality and path equivalence have different semantics.

• Equality is determined by the path non-member operator==, which considers the two paths' lexical representations only.

  [Example 1:

  path("foo") == "bar" is never true.

  — end example]

• Equivalence is determined by the equivalent() non-member function, which determines if two paths resolve ([fs.class.path]) to the same file system entity.

  [Example 2:

  equivalent("foo", "bar") will be true when both paths resolve to the same file.

  — end example]

friend strong_ordering operator<=>(const path& lhs, const path& rhs) noexcept;

Returns: lhs.compare(rhs) <=> 0.

friend path operator/(const path& lhs, const path& rhs);

Effects: Equivalent to: return path(lhs) /= rhs;
