[section:add_pointer add_pointer]

   template <class T>
   struct add_pointer
   {
      typedef __below type;
   };
   
   template <class T> using add_pointer_t = typename add_pointer<T>::type; // C++11 and above

__type The same type as `remove_reference<T>::type*`.  

The rationale for this template
is that it produces the same type as `decltype(&t)`, 
where `t` is an object of type `T`.

__std_ref 8.3.1.

__header ` #include <boost/type_traits/add_pointer.hpp>` or ` #include <boost/type_traits.hpp>`
