std::is_aggregate

Defined in header `<type_traits>`
template< class T > struct is_aggregate;		(since C++17)

Checks if T is an aggregate type. The member constant value is equal to true if T is an aggregate type and false otherwise.

The behavior is undefined if std::remove_all_extents_t<T> is an incomplete type other than (possibly cv-qualified) void.

Template parameters

a type to check

Helper variable template

template< class T >
inline constexpr bool is_aggregate_v = is_aggregate<T>::value;

(since C++17)

Inherited from std::integral_constant

Member constants

value

[static]

true if T is an aggregate 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)

Member types

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

Example

#include <type_traits>
#include <new>
#include <utility>
 
// constructs a T at the uninitialized memory pointed to by p
// using list-initialization for aggregates and non-list initialization otherwise
template<class T, class... Args>
T* construct(T* p, Args&&... args) {
    if constexpr(std::is_aggregate_v<T>) {
        return ::new (static_cast<void*>(p)) T{std::forward<Args>(args)...};
    }
    else {
        return ::new (static_cast<void*>(p)) T(std::forward<Args>(args)...);
    }
}
 
struct A { int x, y; };
struct B { B(int, const char*) { } };
 
int main() {
    std::aligned_union_t<1, A, B> storage;
    A* a = construct(reinterpret_cast<A*>(&storage), 1, 2);
    B* b = construct(reinterpret_cast<B*>(&storage), 1, "hello");
