template to avoid generating duplicate switch cases. E
. Thus, the following code does not work without the explicit cast: enum E : int { a, b, c } int[] abc = cast(int[]) [ EnumMembers!E ];Cast is not necessary if the type of the variable is inferred. See the example below.

Detect whether T
is one of the built-in string types.
The built-in string types are Char[]
, where Char
is any of char
, wchar
or dchar
, with or without qualifiers.
Static arrays of characters (like char[80]
) are not considered built-in string types.
//String types static assert( isSomeString!string); static assert( isSomeString!(wchar[])); static assert( isSomeString!(dchar[])); static assert( isSomeString!(typeof("aaa"))); static assert( isSomeString!(const(char)[])); //Non string types static assert(!isSomeString!int); static assert(!isSomeString!(int[])); static assert(!isSomeString!(byte[])); static assert(!isSomeString!(typeof(null))); static assert(!isSomeString!(char[4])); enum ES : string { a = "aaa", b = "bbb" } static assert(!isSomeString!ES); static struct Stringish { string str; alias str this; } static assert(!isSomeString!Stringish);
Detect whether type T
is a narrow string.
All arrays that use char, wchar, and their qualified versions are narrow strings. (Those include string and wstring).
static assert(isNarrowString!string); static assert(isNarrowString!wstring); static assert(isNarrowString!(char[])); static assert(isNarrowString!(wchar[])); static assert(!isNarrowString!dstring); static assert(!isNarrowString!(dchar[])); static assert(!isNarrowString!(typeof(null))); static assert(!isNarrowString!(char[4])); enum ES : string { a = "aaa", b = "bbb" } static assert(!isNarrowString!ES); static struct Stringish { string str; alias str this; } static assert(!isNarrowString!Stringish);
Detects whether T
is a comparable type. Basic types and structs and classes that implement opCmp are ordering comparable.
static assert(isOrderingComparable!int); static assert(isOrderingComparable!string); static assert(!isOrderingComparable!creal); static struct Foo {} static assert(!isOrderingComparable!Foo); static struct Bar { int a; auto opCmp(Bar b1) const { return a - b1.a; } } Bar b1 = Bar(5); Bar b2 = Bar(7); assert(isOrderingComparable!Bar && b2 > b1);
Warning: This trait will be deprecated as soon as it is no longer used in Phobos. For a function parameter to safely accept a type that implicitly converts to string as a string, the conversion needs to happen at the callsite; otherwise, the conversion is done inside the function, and in many cases, that means that local memory is sliced (e.g. if a static array is passed to the function, then it's copied, and the resulting dynamic array will be a slice of a local variable). So, if the resulting string escapes the function, the string refers to invalid memory, and accessing it would mean accessing invalid memory. As such, the only safe way for a function to accept types that implicitly convert to string is for the implicit conversion to be done at the callsite, and that can only occur if the parameter is explicitly typed as an array, whereas using isConvertibleToString in a template constraint would result in the conversion being done inside the function. As such, isConvertibleToString is inherently unsafe and is going to be deprecated.
Detect whether T
is a struct, static array, or enum that is implicitly convertible to a string.
static struct AliasedString { string s; alias s this; } enum StringEnum { a = "foo" } assert(!isConvertibleToString!string); assert(isConvertibleToString!AliasedString); assert(isConvertibleToString!StringEnum); assert(isConvertibleToString!(char[25])); assert(!isConvertibleToString!(char[]));
Detect whether type T
is a string that will be autodecoded.
All arrays that use char, wchar, and their qualified versions are narrow strings. (Those include string and wstring). Aggregates that implicitly cast to narrow strings are included.

static assert(is(CopyTypeQualifiers!(inout const real, int) == inout const int));
Returns the type of Target
with the "constness" of Source

Returns the inferred type of the loop variable when a variable of type T is iterated over using a foreach

Returns the corresponding signed type for T. T must be a numeric integral type, otherwise a compile-time error occurs.
alias S1 = Signed!uint; static assert(is(S1 == int)); alias S2 = Signed!(const(uint)); static assert(is(S2 == const(int))); alias S3 = Signed!(immutable(uint)); static assert(is(S3 == immutable(int))); static if (is(ucent)) { alias S4 = Signed!ucent; static assert(is(S4 == cent)); }

.
mangledName
is the same as builtin .mangleof
property, but might be more convenient in generic code, e.g. as a template argument when invoking staticMap.

Detect whether symbol or type X
is a function. This is different that finding if a symbol is callable or satisfying is(X == function)
, it finds specifically if the symbol represents a normal function declaration, i.e. not a delegate or a function pointer.
true
if X
is a function, false
otherwise isFunctionPointer
or isDelegate
for detecting those types respectively.static void func(){} static assert(isFunction!func); struct S { void func(){} } static assert(isFunction!(S.func));
Detect whether X
is a final method or class.
true
if X
is final, false
otherwiseclass C { void nf() {} static void sf() {} final void ff() {} } final class FC { } static assert(!isFinal!(C)); static assert( isFinal!(FC)); static assert(!isFinal!(C.nf)); static assert(!isFinal!(C.sf)); static assert( isFinal!(C.ff));
Determines whether the type S
can be copied. If a type cannot be copied, then code such as MyStruct x; auto y = x;
will fail to compile. Copying for structs can be disabled by using @disable this(this)
.
S | The type to check. |
true
if S
can be copied. false
otherwise.struct S1 {} // Fine. Can be copied struct S2 { this(this) {}} // Fine. Can be copied struct S3 {@disable this(this) {}} // Not fine. Copying is disabled. struct S4 {S3 s;} // Not fine. A field has copying disabled. class C1 {} static assert( isCopyable!S1); static assert( isCopyable!S2); static assert(!isCopyable!S3); static assert(!isCopyable!S4); static assert(isCopyable!C1); static assert(isCopyable!int); static assert(isCopyable!(int[]));
