/** Return true if a memory resource's deallocate function has no effect.

    This metafunction may be specialized to indicate to
    the library that calls to the `deallocate` function of
    a @ref memory_resource have no effect. The implementation
    will elide such calls when it is safe to do so. By default,
    the implementation assumes that all memory resources
    require a call to `deallocate` for each memory region
    obtained by calling `allocate`.

    @par Example

    This example specializes the metafuction for `my_resource`,
    to indicate that calls to deallocate have no effect:

    @code

    // Forward-declaration for a user-defined memory resource
    struct my_resource;

    // It is necessary to specialize the template from
    // inside the namespace in which it is declared:

    namespace boost {
    namespace json {

    template<>
    struct is_deallocate_trivial< my_resource >
    {
        static constexpr bool value = true;
    };

    } // namespace json
    } // namespace boost

    @endcode

    It is usually not necessary for users to check this trait.
    Instead, they can call @ref storage_ptr::is_deallocate_trivial
    to determine if the pointed-to memory resource has a trivial
    deallocate function.

    @see
        @ref memory_resource,
        @ref storage_ptr
*/
template<class T>
struct is_deallocate_trivial
{
    /** A bool equal to true if calls to `T::do_deallocate` have no effect.

        The primary template sets `value` to false.
    */
    static constexpr bool value = false;
};
