std::is_unbounded_array is a UnaryTypeTrait .

Checks whether T is an arrays of unknown bound . Provides the member constant value which is equal to true , if T is an array type of unknown bound. Otherwise, value is equal to false .

If the program adds specializations for std::is_unbounded_array or std::is_unbounded_array_v , the behavior is undefined.

Template parameters

T - a type to check

Helper variable template

template < class T >
constexpr bool is_unbounded_array_v = is_unbounded_array < T > :: value ;
(since C++20)

Inherited from std:: integral_constant

Member constants

value
[static]
true if T is an array type of unknown bound., 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)

Member types

Type Definition
value_type bool
type std:: integral_constant < bool , value >

Possible implementation

template<class T>
struct is_unbounded_array: std::false_type {};
 
template<class T>
struct is_unbounded_array<T[]> : std::true_type {};
