}
A keyword denoting a null pointer constant. It can be converted to any pointer or pointer-to-member type, yielding a null pointer of the resulting type.
Widget* p = new Widget();
delete p;
p = nullptr; // set the pointer to null after deletion
Note that nullptr
is not itself a pointer. The type of nullptr
is a fundamental type known as std::nullptr_t
.
void f(int* p);
template <class T>
void g(T* p);
void h(std::nullptr_t p);
int main() {
f(nullptr); // ok
g(nullptr); // error
h(nullptr); // ok
}
Within a member function of a class, the keyword this
is a pointer to the instance of the class on which the function was called. this
cannot be used in a static member function.
struct S {
int x;
S& operator=(const S& other) {
x = other.x;
// return a reference to the object being assigned to
return *this;
}
};
The type of this
depends on the cv-qualification of the member function: if X::f
is const
, then the type of this
within f
is const X*
, so this
cannot be used to modify non-static data members from within a const
member function. Likewise, this
inherits volatile
qualification from the function it appears in.
this
can also be used in a brace-or-equal-initializer for a non-static data member.
struct S;
struct T {
T(const S* s);
// ...
};
struct S {
// ...
T t{this};
};
this
is an rvalue, so it cannot be assigned to.
An integer literal is a primary expression of the form
It is a non-zero decimal digit (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9), followed by zero or more decimal digits (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
int d = 42;
It is the digit zero (0) followed by zero or more octal digits (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
int o = 052
It is the character sequence 0x or the character sequence 0X followed by one or more hexadecimal digits (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, a, A, b, B, c, C, d, D, e, E, f, F)
int x = 0x2a;
int X = 0X2A;
It is the character sequence 0b or the character sequence 0B followed by one or more binary digits (0, 1)
int b = 0b101010; // C++14
Integer-suffix, if provided, may contain one or both of the following (if both are provided, they may appear in any order:
unsigned int u_1 = 42u;
The following variables are also initialized to the same value:
unsigned long long l1 = 18446744073709550592ull; // C++11
unsigned long long l2 = 18'446'744'073'709'550'592llu; // C++14
unsigned long long l3 = 1844'6744'0737'0955'0592uLL; // C++14
unsigned long long l4 = 184467'440737'0'95505'92LLU; // C++14
Notes
Letters in the integer literals are case-insensitive: 0xDeAdBaBeU and 0XdeadBABEu represent the same number (one exception is the long-long-suffix, which is either ll or LL, never lL or Ll)
There are no negative integer literals. Expressions such as -1 apply the unary minus operator to the value represented by the literal, which may involve implicit type conversions.
In C prior to C99 (but not in C++), unsuffixed decimal values that do not fit in long int are allowed to have the type unsigned long int.
When used in a controlling expression of #if or #elif, all signed integer constants act as if they have type std::intmax_t and all unsigned integer constants act as if they have type std::uintmax_t.
