Constructs an object in allocated, but not initialized storage pointed to by p using OuterAllocator and the provided constructor arguments. If the object is of type that itself uses allocators, or if it is std::pair, passes InnerAllocator down to the constructed object.

First, retrieve the outermost allocator OUTERMOST by calling this->outer_allocator(), and then calling the outer_allocator() member function recursively on the result of this call until reaching an allocator that has no such member function.

Define OUTERMOST_ALLOC_TRAITS(x) as std::allocator_traits<std::remove_reference_t<decltype(OUTERMOST(x))>>

1) Creates an object of the given type T by means of uses-allocator construction at the uninitialized memory location indicated by p, using OUTERMOST as the allocator. After adjustment for uses-allocator convention expected by T's constructor, calls OUTERMOST_ALLOC_TRAITS(*this)::construct.
This overload participates in overload resolution only if U is not a specialization of std::pair.
(until C++20)
Equivalent to
std::apply(
    [p,this](auto&&... newargs) {
        OUTERMOST_ALLOC_TRAITS(*this)::construct(
            OUTERMOST(*this), p, std::forward<decltype(newargs)>(newargs)...);
    },
    std::uses_allocator_construction_args(
        inner_allocator(),
        std::forward<Args>(args)...
    )
);
(since C++20)
2) First, if either T1 or T2 is allocator-aware, modifies the tuples x and y to include the appropriate inner allocator, resulting in the two new tuples xprime and yprime, according to the following three rules:
2a) if T1 is not allocator-aware (std::uses_allocator<T1, inner_allocator_type>::value==false, then xprime is std::tuple<Args1&&...>(std::move(x)). (it is also required that std::is_constructible<T1, Args1...>::value==true)
2b) if T1 is allocator-aware (std::uses_allocator<T1, inner_allocator_type>::value==true), and its constructor takes an allocator tag (std::is_constructible<T1, std::allocator_arg_t, inner_allocator_type&, Args1...>::value==true), then xprime is
std::tuple_cat(std::tuple<std::allocator_arg_t, inner_allocator_type&>(
                    std::allocator_arg, inner_allocator()
               ),
               std::tuple<Args1&&...>(std::move(x)))
2c) if T1 is allocator-aware (std::uses_allocator<T1, inner_allocator_type>::value==true), and its constructor takes the allocator as the last argument (std::is_constructible<T1, Args1..., inner_allocator_type&>::value==true), then xprime is std::tuple_cat(std::tuple<Args1&&...>(std::move(x)), std::tuple<inner_allocator_type&>(inner_allocator())).
Same rules apply to T2 and the replacement of y with yprime
Once xprime and yprime are constructed, constructs the pair p in allocated storage by calling
std::allocator_traits<O>::construct( OUTERMOST,
                                     p,
                                     std::piecewise_construct,
                                     std::move(xprime),
                                     std::move(yprime));
3) Equivalent to construct(p, std::piecewise_construct, std::tuple<>(), std::tuple<>()), that is, passes the inner allocator on to the pair's member types if they accept them.
5) Equivalent to
6) Equivalent to
7) This overload participates in overload resolution only if given the exposition-only function template
template< class A, class B >
void /*deduce-as-pair*/( const std::pair<A, B>& );

, /*deduce-as-pair*/(non_pair) is ill-formed when considered as an unevaluated operand. Equivalent to

construct<T1, T2, T1, T2>(p, std::forward<NonPair>(non_pair));
(until C++20)

Parameters

p - pointer to allocated, but not initialized storage
args... - the constructor arguments to pass to the constructor of T
x - the constructor arguments to pass to the constructor of T1
y - the constructor arguments to pass to the constructor of T2
xy - the pair whose two members are the constructor arguments for T1 and T2
non_pair - non-pair argument to convert to pair for further construction

Return value

(none)

Notes

This function is called (through std::allocator_traits) by any allocator-aware object, such as std::vector, that was given a std::scoped_allocator_adaptor as the allocator to use. Since inner_allocator is itself an instance of std::scoped_allocator_adaptor, this function will also be called when the allocator-aware objects constructed through this function start constructing their own members.

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 2975 C++11 first overload is mistakenly used for pair construction in some cases constrained to not accept pairs
P0475R1 C++11 pair piecewise construction may copy the arguments transformed to tuples of references to avoid copy
LWG 3525 C++11 no overload could handle non-pair types convertible to pair reconstructing overload added
