std::partial_order(3)

NAME
std::partial_order - std::partial_order

Synopsis
   Defined in header <compare>
   inline namespace /* unspecified */ {
       inline constexpr /* unspecified */ partial_order = /* unspecified (since C++20)
   */;
   }
   Call signature
   template< class T, class U >
       requires /* see below */
   constexpr std::partial_ordering
       partial_order( T&& t, U&& u ) noexcept(/* see below */);
   Compares two values using 3-way comparison and produces a result of type
   std::partial_ordering.
   Let t and u be expressions and T and U denote decltype((t)) and decltype((u))
   respectively, std::partial_order(t, u) is expression-equivalent to:
     * If std::is_same_v<std::decay_t<T>, std::decay_t<U>> is true:
          * std::partial_ordering(partial_order(t, u)), if it is a well-formed
            expression with overload resolution performed in a context that does not
            include a declaration of std::partial_order,
          * otherwise, std::partial_ordering(std::compare_three_way()(t, u)), if it is
            well-formed,
          * otherwise, std::partial_ordering(std::weak_order(t, u)), if it is
            well-formed.
     * In all other cases, the expression is ill-formed, which can result in
       substitution failure when it appears in the immediate context of a template
       instantiation.
  Customization point objects
   The name std::partial_order denotes a customization point object, which is a const
   function object of a literal semiregular class type. For exposition purposes, the
   cv-unqualified version of its type is denoted as __partial_order_fn.
   All instances of __partial_order_fn are equal. The effects of invoking different
   instances of type __partial_order_fn on the same arguments are equivalent,
   regardless of whether the expression denoting the instance is an lvalue or rvalue,
   and is const-qualified or not (however, a volatile-qualified instance is not
   required to be invocable). Thus, std::partial_order can be copied freely and its
   copies can be used interchangeably.
   Given a set of types Args..., if std::declval<Args>()... meet the requirements for
   arguments to std::partial_order above, __partial_order_fn models
     * std::invocable<__partial_order_fn, Args...>,
     * std::invocable<const __partial_order_fn, Args...>,
     * std::invocable<__partial_order_fn&, Args...>, and
     * std::invocable<const __partial_order_fn&, Args...>.
   Otherwise, no function call operator of __partial_order_fn participates in overload
   resolution.
