std::is_function - cppreference.com (original) (raw)

| | | | | ----------------------------------------- | | ------------- | | template< class T > struct is_function; | | (since C++11) |

std::is_function is a UnaryTypeTrait.

Checks whether T is a function type. Types like std::function, lambdas, classes with overloaded operator() and pointers to functions don't count as function types. Provides the member constant value which is equal to true, if T is a function type. Otherwise, value is equal to false.

If the program adds specializations for std::is_function or std::is_function_v, the behavior is undefined.

[edit] Notes

std::is_function can be implemented in much simpler ways. Implementations similar to the following one are used by new versions of libc++, libstdc++ and MS STL:

The implementation shown below is for pedagogical purposes, since it exhibits the myriad kinds of function types.
