(since C++11) | |
If T is the type produced by a call to std::bind, this template provides the member constant value equal true. For any other type, value is false. This template may be specialized for a user-defined type which should be treated by std::bind as if it was the type of a bind subexpression: when a bind-generated function object is invoked, a bound argument of this type will be invoked as a function object and given all the unbound arguments passed to the bind-generated object.

Member constants
|    value [static]  | 
   true if  T is a function object generated by std::bind, false otherwise   (public static member constant)  | 
Member functions
|    operator bool  | 
   converts the object to bool, returns value   (public member function)  | 
Member types

[edit] Example
#include <iostream> #include <type_traits> #include <functional> struct MyBind { typedef int result_type; int operator()(int a, int b) const { return a + b; } } my_2; namespace std { template<> struct is_bind_expression<MyBind> : public true_type {}; } int f(int n1, int n2) { return n1+n2; } int main() { auto b = std::bind(f, MyBind(), 2); // as if bind(f, bind(MyBind::operator(), _1, _2), 2) std::cout << "Adding 2 to the sum of 10 and 11 gives " << b(10, 11) << '\n'; }
Output:
Adding 2 to the sum of 10 and 11 gives 23
