//@PURPOSE: Provide routines that destroy objects efficiently.
//
//@CLASSES:
//  bslma::DestructionUtil: namespace for routines that destroy objects
//
//@SEE_ALSO: bslma_constructionutil
//
//@DESCRIPTION: This component provides utilities to destroy scalars with a
// uniform interface, but select a different implementation according to the
// traits possessed by the underlying type.
//
// The trait under consideration by this component is:
//..
//  Trait                             Note
//  -------------------------------   -------------------------------------
//  bsl::is_trivially_copyable        Expressed in English as "TYPE has the
//                                    bit-wise copyable trait", or "TYPE is
//                                    bit-wise copyable", this trait also
//                                    implies that destructor calls can be
//                                    elided with no effect on observable
//                                    behavior.
//

//
///Usage
///-----
// In this section we show intended use of this component.  Note that this
// component is for use by the 'bslstl' package.  Other clients should use the
// STL algorithms (in header '<algorithm>' and '<memory>').
//
///Example 1: Destroy 'int' and an Integer Wrapper
///- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
// In this example, we will use 'bslma::DestructionUtil' to destroy both a
// scalar integer and a 'MyInteger' type object.  Calling the 'destroy' method
// on a scalar integer is a no-op while calling the 'destroy' method on an
// object of 'MyInteger' class invokes the destructor of the object.
//
// First, we define a 'MyInteger' class that represents an integer value:
//..
//  class MyInteger {
//      // This class represents an integer value.
//
//      // DATA
//      int d_intValue;  // integer value
//
//    public:
//      // CREATORS
//      MyInteger();
//          // Create a 'MyInteger' object having integer value '0'.
//
//      explicit MyInteger(int value);
//          // Create a 'MyInteger' object having the specified 'value'.
//
//      ~MyInteger();
//          // Destroy this object.
//
//      // ACCESSORS
//      int getValue() const;
//  };
//..
// Then, we create an object, 'myInteger', of type 'MyInteger':
//..
//  bsls::ObjectBuffer<MyInteger> buffer;
//  MyInteger *myInteger = &buffer.object();
//  new (myInteger) MyInteger(1);
//..
// Notice that we use an 'ObjectBuffer' to allow us to safely invoke the
// destructor explicitly.
//
// Now, we define a primitive integer:
//..
//  int scalarInteger = 2;
//..
// Finally, we use the uniform 'bslma::DestructionUtil::destroy'
// method to destroy both 'myInteger' and 'scalarInteger':
//..
//  bslma::DestructionUtil::destroy(myInteger);
//  bslma::DestructionUtil::destroy(&scalarInteger);
//..
