# std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator<T>::deallocate_bytes

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | memory‎ | polymorphic allocator

void deallocate_bytes( void* p, std::size_t nbytes, std::size_t alignment = alignof(std::max_align_t) ); |  | (since C++20)

Deallocates the storage pointed to by p, which must have been allocated from a std::pmr::memory_resource x that compares equal to *resource(), using x.allocate(nbytes, alignment), typically through a call to allocate_bytes(nbytes, alignment).

Equivalent to resource()->deallocate(p, nbytes, alignment);.

### Parameters

p | - | pointer to memory to deallocate
nbytes | - | the number of bytes originally allocated
alignment | - | the alignment originally allocated

### Exceptions

Throws nothing.

### Notes

This function was introduced for use with the fully-specialized allocator std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator<>, but it may be useful in any specialization.
