tag_of

Description

All conforming Fusion sequences and iterators have an associated tag type. The purpose of the tag is to enable tag dispatching from Intrinsic functions to implementations appropriate for the type.

This metafunction may be specialized to accomodate clients providing Fusion conforming sequences.

Synopsis

namespace traits
{
    template<typename Sequence>
    struct tag_of
    {
        typedef unspecified type;
    };
}

Parameters

Parameter	Requirement	Description
`T`	Any type	The type to query.

Expression Semantics

typedef traits::tag_of<T>::type tag;

Return type: Any type.

Semantics: Returns the tag type associated with T.
