This header is part of the Library Fundamentals TS (v1, v2).

Classes

Name	Description
bad_any_cast (library fundamentals TS)	exception that is thrown by a failed any_cast. (class)
any (library fundamentals TS)	Objects that hold instances of any type that satisfies the ValueType requirements. (class)

Functions

swap	swaps two any instances (function)
any_cast	type-safe access to the contained object (function template)
