Defined in header `<functional>`
template< class F> /unspecified/ not_fn( F&& f );		(since C++17) (until C++20)
template< class F> constexpr /unspecified/ not_fn( F&& f );		(since C++20)

Creates a forwarding call wrapper that returns the negation of the callable object it holds.

Parameters

f	-	the object from which the Callable object held by the wrapper is constructed
Type requirements
- `std::decay_t<F>` must meet the requirements of Callable and MoveConstructible.
- std::is_constructible_v<std::decay_t<F>, F> is required to be true

Return value

A function object of unspecified type T. It has the following members:

std::not_fn return type

Member objects

The return type of std::not_fn holds a member object of type std::decay_t<F>.

Constructors

	(1)
explicit T(F&& f); // exposition only			(since C++17) (until C++20)
explicit constexpr T(F&& f); // exposition only			(since C++20)
T(T&& f) = default; T(const T& f) = default;		(2)

1) The constructor direct-non-list-initializes the member object (of type std::decay_t<F>) from std::forward<F>(f). Throws any exception thrown by the constructor selected

2) Because std::decay_t<F> is required to be MoveConstructible, the returned call wrapper is always MoveConstructible, and is CopyConstructible if std::decay_t<F> is CopyConstructible.

Member function `operator()`

	(1)
template<class... Args> auto operator()(Args&&... args) & -> decltype( !std::declval<std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<F>&, Args...>>()); template<class... Args> auto operator()(Args&&... args) const& -> decltype( !std::declval<std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<F> const&, Args...>>());			(since C++17) (until C++20)
template<class... Args> constexpr auto operator()(Args&&... args) & noexcept(/see below/) -> decltype( !std::declval<std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<F>&, Args...>>()); template<class... Args> constexpr auto operator()(Args&&... args) const& noexcept(/see below/) -> decltype( !std::declval<std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<F> const&, Args...>>());			(since C++20)
		(2)
template<class... Args> auto operator()(Args&&... args) && -> decltype( !std::declval<std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<F>, Args...>>()); template<class... Args> auto operator()(Args&&... args) const&& -> decltype( !std::declval<std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<F> const, Args...>>());				(since C++17) (until C++20)
template<class... Args> constexpr auto operator()(Args&&... args) && noexcept(/see below/) -> decltype( !std::declval<std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<F>, Args...>>()); template<class... Args> constexpr auto operator()(Args&&... args) const&& noexcept(/see below/) -> decltype( !std::declval<std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<F> const, Args...>>());				(since C++20)

1) Equivalent to return !std::invoke(fd, std::forward<Args>(args)...); 2) Equivalent to return !std::invoke(std::move(fd), std::forward<Args>(args)...);	(since C++17) (until C++20)
1) Expression-equivalent to !std::invoke(fd, std::forward<Args>(args)...) 2) Expression-equivalent to !std::invoke(std::move(fd), std::forward<Args>(args)...)	(since C++20)

where fd is the member object of type std::decay_t<F>

Expression-equivalent

Expression e is expression-equivalent to expression f, if

e and f have the same effects, and
either both are constant subexpressions or else neither is a constant subexpression, and
either both are potentially-throwing or else neither is potentially-throwing (i.e. noexcept(e) == noexcept(f)).

Exceptions

Throws no exceptions, unless the construction of fd throws.
