std::unique_ptr<T,Deleter>::operator bool
explicit operator bool() const noexcept; | (since C++11) |

Return value
true if *this owns an object, false otherwise.
Example
#include <iostream>
#include <memory>

{
std::unique_ptr<int> ptr(new int(42));
if (ptr) std::cout << "before reset, ptr is: " << *ptr << '\n';
ptr.reset();
if (ptr) std::cout << "after reset, ptr is: " << *ptr << '\n';
}Output:
