[section Examples]
The following function template obtains a raw pointer from a pointer and is
well defined when the pointer aliases storage that has no object constructed
in it.
The following example allocates storage and constructs an object in that
storage using an allocator.
```
template<class T>
inline typename boost::pointer_traits<T>::element_type*
to_raw_pointer(T v) noexcept
template<class Allocator>
void function(Allocator& a)
{
return boost::pointer_traits<T>::to_address(v);
auto p = a.allocate(1);
std::allocator_traits<Allocator>::construct(a, boost::to_address(p));
}
```
