##### Exception
|
||||
|
||||
It is OK to create a local `const unique_ptr<T[]>` to a heap-allocated buffer, as this is a valid way to represent a scoped dynamic array.
|
||||
|
||||
##### Example
|
||||
|
||||
A valid use case for a local `const unique_ptr<T[]>` variable:
|
||||
|
||||
int get_median_value(const std::list<int>& integers)
|
||||
{
|
||||
const auto size = integers.size();
|
||||
|
||||
// OK: declaring a local unique_ptr<T[]>.
|
||||
const auto local_buffer = std::make_unique_for_overwrite<int[]>(size);
|
||||
|
||||
std::copy_n(begin(integers), size, local_buffer.get());
|
||||
std::nth_element(local_buffer.get(), local_buffer.get() + size/2, local_buffer.get() + size);
|
||||
|
||||
return local_buffer[size/2];
|
||||
}
|
||||
If your stack space is limited, it is OK to create a local `const unique_ptr<BigObject>` to store the object on the heap instead of the stack.
