std::is_array
From cppreference.com
| Defined in header <type_traits>
|
||
| template< class T > struct is_array; |
(since C++11) | |
Checks whether T is an array type. Provides the member constant value which is equal to true, if T is an array type. Otherwise, value is equal to false.
Template parameters
| T | - | a type to check |
Helper variable template
| template< class T > inline constexpr bool is_array_v = is_array<T>::value; |
(since C++17) | |
Inherited from std::integral_constant
Member constants
| value [static] |
true if T is an array type , false otherwise (public static member constant) |
Member functions
| operator bool |
converts the object to bool, returns value (public member function) |
| operator() (C++14) |
returns value (public member function) |

Possible implementation
template<class T> struct is_array : std::false_type {}; template<class T> struct is_array<T[]> : std::true_type {}; template<class T, std::size_t N> struct is_array<T[N]> : std::true_type {}; |
Example
Run this code
#include <iostream> #include <type_traits> class A {}; int main() { std::cout << std::boolalpha; std::cout << std::is_array<A>::value << '\n'; std::cout << std::is_array<A[]>::value << '\n'; std::cout << std::is_array<A[3]>::value << '\n'; std::cout << std::is_array<float>::value << '\n'; std::cout << std::is_array<int>::value << '\n'; std::cout << std::is_array<int[]>::value << '\n'; std::cout << std::is_array<int[3]>::value << '\n'; }
Output:
false true true false false true true
