Detailed Description

A key for use with AMQP annotation maps.

An annotation_key can contain either a uint64_t or a proton::symbol.

◆ coerce()

T coerce ( const annotation_key x)
related

Get the binary value or throw conversion_error.

Coerce the contained value to type T. For example:

 uint64_t i = coerce<uint64_t>(x)

This will succeed if x contains any numeric value, but may lose precision if it contains a float or double value.

Exceptions
conversion_errorif the value cannot be converted to T according to std::is_convertible
