# make_local_shared: Creating local_shared_ptr
:toc:
:toc-title:
:idprefix: make_local_shared_

## Description

The function templates `make_local_shared` and `allocate_local_shared` provide
convenient, safe and efficient ways to create `local_shared_ptr` objects. They
are analogous to `make_shared` and `allocate_shared` for `shared_ptr`.

## Synopsis

`make_local_shared` and `allocate_local_shared` are defined in
`<boost/smart_ptr/make_local_shared.hpp>`.

[subs=+quotes]
```
namespace boost {
  `// T is not an array`
  template<class T, class... Args>
    local_shared_ptr<T> make_local_shared(Args&&... args);
  template<class T, class A, class... Args>
    local_shared_ptr<T> allocate_local_shared(const A& a, Args&&... args);

  `// T is an array of unknown bounds`
  template<class T>
    local_shared_ptr<T> make_local_shared(std::size_t n);
  template<class T, class A>
    local_shared_ptr<T> allocate_local_shared(const A& a, std::size_t n);

  `// T is an array of known bounds`
  template<class T>
    local_shared_ptr<T> make_local_shared();
  template<class T, class A>
    local_shared_ptr<T> allocate_local_shared(const A& a);

  `// T is an array of unknown bounds`
  template<class T>
    local_shared_ptr<T> make_local_shared(std::size_t n,
      const remove_extent_t<T>& v);
  template<class T, class A>
    local_shared_ptr<T> allocate_local_shared(const A& a, std::size_t n,
      const remove_extent_t<T>& v);

  `// T is an array of known bounds`
  template<class T>
    local_shared_ptr<T> make_local_shared(const remove_extent_t<T>& v);
  template<class T, class A>
    local_shared_ptr<T> allocate_local_shared(const A& a,
      const remove_extent_t<T>& v);

  `// T is not an array of known bounds`
  template<class T>
    local_shared_ptr<T> make_local_shared_noinit();
  template<class T, class A>
    local_shared_ptr<T> allocate_local_shared_noinit(const A& a);

  `// T is an array of unknown bounds`
  template<class T>
    local_shared_ptr<T> make_local_shared_noinit(std::size_t n);
  template<class T, class A>
    local_shared_ptr<T> allocate_local_shared_noinit(const A& a,
      std::size_t n);
}
```

## Description

The requirements and effects of these functions are the same as `make_shared`
and `allocate_shared`, except that a `local_shared_ptr` is returned.
