+
+[section Overview]
+
+The header <boost/core/pointer_traits.hpp> provides the class template
+`boost::pointer_traits` to facilitate use of pointer-like types. The C++11
+standard library introduced `std::pointer_traits` along with an allocator
+model which supported pointer-like types in addition to plain raw pointers.
+This implementation also supports C++98, and adds additional functionality
+for obtaining raw pointers from pointers.
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section Examples]
+
+The following function template obtains a raw pointer from a pointer and is
+well defined when the pointer aliases storage that has no object constructed
+in it.
+
+```
+template<class T>
+inline typename boost::pointer_traits<T>::element_type*
+to_raw_pointer(T v) noexcept
+{
+    return boost::pointer_traits<T>::to_address(v);
+}
+```
+
+[endsect]
+
+[section Reference]
+
+```
+namespace boost {
+  template<class T> struct pointer_traits {
+    typedef T pointer;
+    typedef ``['see below]`` element_type;
+    typedef ``['see below]`` difference_type;
+
+    template<class U> struct rebind_to { typedef ``['see below]`` type; };
+    template<class U> using rebind = typename rebind_to<U>::type;
+
+    static pointer pointer_to(``['see below]`` v);
+    static element_type* to_address(pointer v) noexcept;
+  };
+
+  template<class T> struct pointer_traits<T*> {
+    typedef T* pointer;
+    typedef T element_type;
+    typedef std::ptrdiff_t difference_type;
+
+    template<class U> struct rebind_to { typedef U* type; };
+    template<class U> using rebind = typename rebind_to<U>::type;
+
+    static pointer pointer_to(``['see below]`` v) noexcept;
+    static element_type* to_address(pointer v) noexcept;
+  };
+}
+```
