template <class T>
struct has_trivial_assign : public true_type-or-false_type {};
Inherits: If T is a (possibly cv-qualified) type with a trivial assignment-operator then inherits from true_type, otherwise inherits from false_type.
If a type has a trivial assignment-operator then the operator has the same
effect as copying the bits of one object to the other: calls to the operator
can be safely replaced with a call to memcpy.
Compiler Compatibility: If the compiler does not support partial-specialization of class templates, then this template can not be used with function types.
Without some (as yet unspecified) help from the compiler, has_trivial_assign will never report that a user-defined class or struct has a trivial constructor; this is always safe, if possibly sub-optimal. Currently (May 2005) only MWCW 9 and Visual C++ 8 have the necessary compiler intrinsics to detect user-defined classes with trivial constructors.

Examples:
has_trivial_assign<int>inherits fromtrue_type.
has_trivial_assign<char*>::typeis the typetrue_type.
has_trivial_assign<int (*)(long)>::valueis an integral constant expression that evaluates to true.
has_trivial_assign<MyClass>::valueis an integral constant expression that evaluates to false.
has_trivial_assign<T>::value_typeis the typebool.
