std::unwrap_reference, std::unwrap_ref_decay - cppreference.com

template< class T >
struct unwrap_reference;

(1) (since C++20)

template< class T >
struct unwrap_ref_decay;

(2) (since C++20)

Unwraps any std::reference_wrapper: changing std::reference_wrapper<U> to U&.

If the program adds specializations for any of the templates described on this page, the behavior is undefined.

[edit] Nested types [edit] Helper types

template<class T>
using unwrap_reference_t = unwrap_reference<T>::type;

(1) (since C++20)

template<class T>
using unwrap_ref_decay_t = unwrap_ref_decay<T>::type;

(2) (since C++20) [edit] Possible implementation
template<class T>
struct unwrap_reference { using type = T; };
template<class U>
struct unwrap_reference<std::reference_wrapper<U>> { using type = U&; };
 
template<class T>
struct unwrap_ref_decay : std::unwrap_reference<std::decay_t<T>> {};
[edit] Notes

std::unwrap_ref_decay performs the same transformation as used by std::make_pair and std::make_tuple.
