std::is_literal_type(3) | C++ Standard Libary | std::is_literal_type(3) |
NAME¶
std::is_literal_type - std::is_literal_type
Synopsis¶
Defined in header <type_traits>
template< class T > (since C++11)
struct is_literal_type; (deprecated in C++17)
(removed in C++20)
(This type trait has been deprecated^[1] and removed^[2] as offering
negligible
value to generic code.)
If T satisfies all requirements of LiteralType, provides the member constant
value
equal true. For any other type, value is false.
The behavior is undefined if std::remove_all_extents_t<T> is an
incomplete type and
not (possibly cv-qualified) void.
The behavior of a program that adds specializations for is_literal_type
or is_literal_type_v
(since C++17) is undefined.
Template parameters¶
T - a type to check
Helper variable template
template< class T > (since C++17)
inline constexpr bool is_literal_type_v = (deprecated)
is_literal_type<T>::value; (removed in C++20)
Inherited from std::integral_constant
Member constants¶
value true if T is a literal type , false otherwise
[static] (public static member constant)
Member functions¶
operator bool converts the object to bool, returns value
(public member function)
operator() returns value
(C++14) (public member function)
Member types¶
Type Definition
value_type bool
type std::integral_constant<bool, value>
Notes¶
Only literal types may be used as parameters to or returned from
constexpr
functions. Only literal classes may have constexpr member functions.
Example¶
// Run this code
#include <iostream>
#include <type_traits>
struct A {
int m;
};
struct B {
virtual ~B();
};
int main()
{
std::cout << std::boolalpha;
std::cout << std::is_literal_type<A>::value << '\n';
std::cout << std::is_literal_type<B>::value << '\n';
}
Output:¶
true
false

value to
generic code, as what is really needed is the ability to know that a specific
construction would produce constant initialization."
