inline constexpr in_place_type_t<T> in_place_type{};

inline constexpr in_place_index_t<I> in_place_index{};


std::in_place, std::in_place_type, and std::in_place_index are disambiguation tags that can be passed to the constructors of std::optional, std::variant, and std::any to indicate that the contained object should be constructed in-place, and (for the latter two) the type of the object to be constructed.
The corresponding type/type templates std::in_place_t, std::in_place_type_t and std::in_place_index_t can be used in the constructor's parameter list to match the intended tag.
