Re: [Boost-Users] Query about boost type traits

I know how to use type traits to enable compile time seperate procedures, but not how to use it to define a procedure for some type and not others.

One way (for member functions) is to use inheritance: add an "implementation layer" that includes the member function or not depending on whether a trait is true or not: template struct mybase { // details T operator*(); }; template struct mybase { // details }; template <class T> struct mine : public mybase { // details };
