# std::is_member_function_pointer

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | types

Defined in header `<type_traits>` |  |
template< class T > struct is_member_function_pointer; |  | (since C++11)

Checks whether `T` is a non-static member function pointer. Provides the member constant `value` which is equal to true, if `T` is a non-static member function pointer type. Otherwise, `value` is equal to false.

### [edit] Template parameters

T | - | a type to check

### [edit] Helper variable template

template< class T > inline constexpr bool is_member_function_pointer_v = is_member_function_pointer<T>::value; |  | (since C++17)

[edit]

## Inherited from std::integral_constant

### Member constants

value [static] | true if `T` is a member function pointer 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>

### [edit] Possible implementation

    template< class T >
    struct is_member_function_pointer_helper : std::false_type {};

    template< class T, class U>
    struct is_member_function_pointer_helper<T U::*> : std::is_function<T> {};

    template< class T >
    struct is_member_function_pointer : is_member_function_pointer_helper< std::remove_cv_t<T> > {};

### [edit] Example

Run this code

    #include <type_traits>

    class A {
    public:
        void member() { }
    };

    int main()
    {
        // fails at compile time if A::member is a data member and not a function
        static_assert(std::is_member_function_pointer<decltype(&A::member)>::value,
                      "A::member is not a member function.");
    }
