Defined in header <compare>
template< class T > constexpr std::strong_equality strong_equal(const T& a, const T& b);		(since C++20)

Compares two values using 3-way comparison and produces a result of type std::strong_equality

Specifically,

• If the expression a <=> b is well-formed and its result is convertible to std::strong_equality, returns that result.
• Otherwise, if the expression a <=> b is well-formed, but its result is not convertible to std::strong_equality, then the function is defined as deleted.
• Otherwise, if the expression a <=> b is ill-formed, but the expression a == b is well-formed and convertible to bool,

• if a == b is true, returns std::strong_equality::equal
• otherwise, returns std::strong_equality::nonequal

• Otherwise, the function is defined as deleted.

Parameters

a, b

-

values to compare

Return value

A value of type std::strong_equality, as described above.
