The alias template detected_or is an alias for an unspecified class type with two public member typedefs value_t and type, which are defined as follows:

  • If the template-id Op<Args...> is valid and denotes a type, then value_t is an alias for std::true_type, and type is an alias for Op<Args...>;
  • Otherwise, value_t is an alias for std::false_type and type is an alias for Default.

The alias template is_detected is equivalent to typename detected_or<std::experimental::nonesuch, Op, Args...>::value_t. It is an alias for std::true_type if the template-id Op<Args...> is valid and denotes a type; otherwise it is an alias for std::false_type.

The alias template detected_t is equivalent to typename detected_or<std::experimental::nonesuch, Op, Args...>::type. It is an alias for Op<Args...> if that template-id is valid and denotes a type; otherwise it is an alias for the class std::experimental::nonesuch.

using is_detected_convertible = is_convertible<detected_t<Op, Args...>, To>;
(library fundamentals TS v2)
template <class To, template<class...> class Op, class... Args>
constexpr bool is_detected_convertible_v = is_detected_convertible<To, Op, Args...>::value;
(library fundamentals TS v2)

The alias template is_detected_exact checks whether detected_t<Op, Args...> is Expected.

The alias template is_detected_convertible checks whether detected_t<Op, Args...> is convertible to To.

Example

#include <experimental/type_traits>
 
template<class T>
using copy_assign_t = decltype(std::declval<T&>() = std::declval<const T&>());
 
struct Meow { };
struct Purr { void operator=(const Purr&) = delete; };
 
int main()
{
    static_assert(std::experimental::is_detected<copy_assign_t, Meow>::value, "Meow should be copy assignable!");
    static_assert(!std::experimental::is_detected_v<copy_assign_t, Purr>, "Purr should not be copy assignable!");
    static_assert(!std::is_detected_exact_v<Meow&, copy_assign_t, Meow>::value, "Copy assignment of Meow should return Meow&!");
}
#include <experimental/type_traits>
#include <cstddef>
 
template<class T>
using diff_t = typename T::difference_type;
 
template <class Ptr>
using difference_type = std::experimental::detected_or_t<std::ptrdiff_t, diff_t, Ptr>;
 
struct Meow { using difference_type = int; };
struct Purr {};
 
int main()
{
    static_assert(std::is_same<difference_type<Meow>, int>::value, "Meow's difference_type should be int!");
    static_assert(std::is_same<difference_type<Purr>, std::ptrdiff_t>::value, "Purr's difference_type should be ptrdiff_t!");
}
