◆ get()

T get ( const scalar s)
related

Get a contained value of type T.

For example:

 uint64_t i = get<uint64_t>(x)

This will succeed if and only if x contains a uint64_t value.

Exceptions
conversion_errorif contained value is not of type T.

◆ coerce() [1/2]

T coerce ( const scalar x)
related

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

◆ coerce() [2/2]

T coerce ( scalar x)
related

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
