std::is_abstract - cppreference.com (original) (raw)
| | | | | ----------------------------------------- | | ------------- | | template< class T > struct is_abstract; | | (since C++11) |
std::is_abstract is a UnaryTypeTrait.
If T is an abstract class (that is, a non-union class that declares or inherits at least one pure virtual function), provides the member constant value equal to true. For any other type, value is false.
If T is an incomplete non-union class type, the behavior is undefined.
If the program adds specializations for std::is_abstract or std::is_abstract_v, the behavior is undefined.
