If T is an object type, then let rv be an rvalue of typeT and u2 a distinct object of type T equal torv[.](#1.sentence-1)

T models [move_constructible](#concept:move_constructible "18.4.13 Concept move_­constructible [concept.moveconstructible]") only if

- [(1.1)](#1.1)

  After the definition T u = rv;, u is equal to u2[.](#1.1.sentence-1)

- [(1.2)](#1.2)

  T(rv) is equal to u2[.](#1.2.sentence-1)

- [(1.3)](#1.3)

  If T is not const, rv's resulting state is valid
but unspecified ([[lib.types.movedfrom]](lib.types.movedfrom "16.4.6.17 Moved-from state of library types")); otherwise, it is unchanged[.](#1.3.sentence-1)
