  36. <p>BOOST_TTI_HAS_TYPE is a macro which expands to a metafunction. The metafunction tests whether an inner type with a particular name exists and, optionally, whether a lambda expression invoked with the inner type is true or not.</p>
  37. <p>name = the name of the inner type.</p>
  38. <p>generates a metafunction called "has_type_'name'" where 'name' is the macro parameter. template&lt;class BOOST_TTI_TP_T,class BOOST_TTI_TP_U&gt;
  39. struct has_type_'name'
  40. {
  41. static const value = unspecified;
  42. typedef mpl::bool_&lt;true-or-false&gt; type;
  43. };
  44. The metafunction types and return:
  45. BOOST_TTI_TP_T = the enclosing type in which to look for our 'name'.
  46. BOOST_TTI_TP_U = (optional) An optional template parameter, defaulting to a marker type.
  47. If specified it is an MPL lambda expression which is invoked
  48. with the inner type found and must return a constant boolean
  49. value.
  50. returns = 'value' depends on whether or not the optional BOOST_TTI_TP_U is specified.
  51. If BOOST_TTI_TP_U is not specified, then 'value' is true if the 'name' type
  52. exists within the enclosing type BOOST_TTI_TP_T; otherwise 'value' is false.
  53. If BOOST_TTI_TP_U is specified , then 'value' is true if the 'name' type exists
  54. within the enclosing type BOOST_TTI_TP_T and the lambda expression as specified
  55. by BOOST_TTI_TP_U, invoked by passing the actual inner type of 'name', returns
  56. a 'value' of true; otherwise 'value' is false.
  57. The action taken with BOOST_TTI_TP_U occurs only when the 'name' type exists
  58. within the enclosing type BOOST_TTI_TP_T.
  59. </p>
  60. <p>Example usage:</p>
  61. <p>BOOST_TTI_HAS_TYPE(MyType) generates the metafunction has_type_MyType in the current scope to look for an inner type called MyType.</p>
  62. <p>has_type_MyType&lt;EnclosingType&gt;::value is true if MyType is an inner type of EnclosingType, otherwise false.</p>
  63. <p>has_type_MyType&lt;EnclosingType,ALambdaExpression&gt;::value is true if MyType is an inner type of EnclosingType and invoking ALambdaExpression with the inner type returns a value of true, otherwise false.</p>
  64. <p>A popular use of the optional MPL lambda expression is to check whether the type found is the same</p>
  65. <p>as another type, when the type found is a typedef. In that case our example would be:</p>
  66. <p>has_type_MyType&lt;EnclosingType,boost::is_same&lt;_,SomeOtherType&gt; &gt;::value is true if MyType is an inner type of EnclosingType and is the same type as SomeOtherType. </p>
