Macro BOOST_TTI_TRAIT_HAS_MEMBER_DATA

BOOST_TTI_TRAIT_HAS_MEMBER_DATA — A macro which expands to a metafunction which tests whether member data with a particular name and type exists.

Synopsis

// In header: <boost/tti/has_member_data.hpp>

BOOST_TTI_TRAIT_HAS_MEMBER_DATA(trait, name)

Description

BOOST_TTI_TRAIT_HAS_MEMBER_DATA is a macro which expands to a metafunction. The metafunction tests whether member data with a particular name and type exists. The macro takes the form of BOOST_TTI_TRAIT_HAS_MEMBER_DATA(trait,name) where

trait = the name of the metafunction.
name = the name of the inner member data.

BOOST_TTI_TRAIT_HAS_MEMBER_DATA generates a metafunction called "trait" where 'trait' is the macro parameter.

template<class BOOST_TTI_TP_ET,class BOOST_TTI_TP_TYPE>
struct trait
  {
  static const value = unspecified;
  typedef mpl::bool_<true-or-false> type;
  };

The metafunction types and return:

  BOOST_TTI_TP_ET   = the enclosing type in which to look for our 'name'
                      The enclosing type can be a class, struct, or union.
                                           OR
                      The type of the member data in the form of a pointer
                      to member data.
  
  BOOST_TTI_TP_TYPE = (optional) The type of the member data if the first
                      parameter is the enclosing type.
  
  returns  = 'value' is true if the 'name' exists, with the correct data type,
             otherwise 'value' is false.
