Question

Let’s say I have a C++0x tuple:

tuple<int,int,int> t(1,2,3);

Now I can do the following to extract the elements of t:

int i,j,k;
make_tuple<int&,int&,int&>(i,j,k) = t;

Is there any less verbose way of achieving this? I know about the get<0>(t) syntax; it is not what I am after.

Answer 1

You can use tie for that:

std::tie(i, j, k) = t;
