Class templates for type synthesis

function_type
function_pointer
function_reference
member_function_pointer
template<typename Types, typename Tag = null_tag> 
struct function_type;

Header

#include <boost/function_types/function_type.hpp>

Types

Component types in form of an MPL - Forward Sequence or another callable, builtin type

Tag

Further properties

function_type<Types,Tag>::type

Synthesized type

Synthesizes a function type from given properties.

If the template parameters do not describe a valid type, any attempt to access the type member will result in a compile error.

template<typename Types, typename Tag = null_tag> 
struct function_pointer;

Header

#include <boost/function_types/function_pointer.hpp>

Types

Component types in form of an MPL - Forward Sequence or another callable, builtin type

Tag

Further properties

function_pointer<Types,Tag>::type

Synthesized type

Synthesizes a function pointer type from given properties.

If the template parameters do not describe a valid type, any attempt to access the type member will result in a compile error.

template<typename Types, typename Tag = null_tag> 
struct function_reference;

Header

#include <boost/function_types/function_reference.hpp>

Types

Component types in form of an MPL - Forward Sequence or another callable, builtin type

Tag

Further properties

function_reference<Types,Tag>::type

Synthesized type

Synthesizes a function reference type from given properties.

If the template parameters do not describe a valid type, any attempt to access the type member will result in a compile error.

template<typename Types, typename Tag = null_tag> 
struct member_function_pointer;

Header

#include <boost/function_types/member_function_pointer.hpp>

Types

Component types in form of an MPL - Forward Sequence or another callable, builtin type

Tag

Further properties

member_function_pointer<Types,Tag>::type

Synthesized type

Synthesizes a member function pointer type from given properties.

An optional reference or possibly cv-qualified pointer is removed from the second type in the sequence to determine the the class type. The cv-qualification of the resulting type applies to the member function, unless otherwise explicitly specified by the property tag.

If the template parameters do not describe a valid type, any attempt to access the type member will result in a compile error.
