Determine if T
should be
treated as an optional.
Defined in header <boost/json/conversion.hpp>
template< class T> struct is_optional_like;
Optionals are serialised as null
if empty, or as the stored type otherwise.
Given t
, a glvalue of type
T
, if
decltype(
t.value() )
is well-formed and isn't a void type;
and
t.reset()
is well-formed;
then the trait provides the member constant value
that is equal to true
. Otherwise,
value
is equal to false
.
Users can specialize the trait for their own types if they don't want them to be treated as optionals. For example:
namespace boost { namespace json { template <> struct is_optional_like<your::optional> : std::false_type { }; } // namespace boost } // namespace json
