c++ - 为什么 std::void_t 在这种情况下不起作用？

Question

#include <type_traits>

template<typename, typename = void>
struct IsIterator final : std::false_type
{};

template<typename T>
struct IsIterator<T,
    std::void_t<std::enable_if_t<std::is_base_of_v<std::input_iterator_tag,
        typename std::iterator_traits<T>::iterator_category>>>>
    final : std::true_type
{};


int main()
{
    return IsIterator<void*>::value;
}

clang 8.0 给出以下错误消息:

/usr/bin/../include/c++/v1/iterator:507:16: error: cannot form a reference to 'void'
    typedef _Tp& reference;
               ^

        return IsIterator<void*>::value;

Answer 1

std::iterator_traits<T>::iterator_category强制实例化 std::iterator_traits<T> void* 的格式错误(SFINAE 的硬错误而非软错误) .

你必须处理 void*手动。
