I/O object service requirements

An I/O object service must meet the requirements for a service, as well as the requirements listed below.

In the table below, X denotes an I/O object service class, a and ao denote values of type X, b and c denote values of type X::implementation_type, and u denotes an identifier.

X::implementation_type

X::implementation_type u;

note: X::implementation_type has a public default constructor and destructor.

a.construct(b);
a.destroy(b);

note: destroy() will only be called on a value that has previously been initialised with construct() or move_construct().

a.move_construct(b, c);

note: only required for I/O objects that support movability.

a.move_assign(b, ao, c);

note: only required for I/O objects that support movability.
