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

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

std::is_unsigned is a UnaryTypeTrait.

Checks whether T is an unsigned arithmetic type.

If the program adds specializations for std::is_unsigned or std::is_unsigned_v, the behavior is undefined.

[edit] Possible implementation

namespace detail { template<typename T,bool = std::is_arithmetic::value> struct is_unsigned : std::integral_constant<bool, T(0) < T(-1)> {};   template struct is_unsigned<T,false> : std::false_type {}; } // namespace detail   template struct is_unsigned : detail::is_unsigned::type {};

[edit] Example

#include #include   class A {}; static_assert(std::is_unsigned_v == false);   enum B : unsigned {}; static_assert(std::is_unsigned_v == false);   enum class C : unsigned {}; static_assert(std::is_unsigned_v == false);   struct S { unsigned p : 1; int q : 1; }; static_assert ( std::is_unsigned_v<decltype(S::p)> not_eq std::is_unsigned_v<decltype(S::q)> );   static_assert ( std::is_unsigned_v == false && std::is_unsigned_v == false && std::is_unsigned_v == true && std::is_unsigned_v == true );   int main() { // signedness of char is implementation-defined: std::cout << std::boolalpha << std::is_unsigned::value << '\n'; }

[edit] Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

DR Applied to Behavior as published Correct behavior
LWG 2197 C++11 value could be true even if T is not an arithmetic type can only be false in this case
