Detailed Description

template<class T>
struct regina::FuncNewCopyPtr< T >

An adaptable unary function used to create objects using copy constructors.

This class is for use with the Standard Template Library.

Note that the template argument need not be a pointer class. If the template argument is T, this unary function will accept a pointer to T, dereference this pointer and pass it to the copy constructor to return a pointer to a newly created object of type T.

Python:
Not present.
