7 Expressions [expr]

7.5 Primary expressions [expr.prim]

7.5.7 Requires expressions [expr.prim.req]

7.5.7.5 Nested requirements [expr.prim.req.nested]

A nested-requirement can be used to specify additional constraints in terms of local parameters.
The constraint-expression shall be satisfied ([temp.constr.decl]) by the substituted template arguments, if any.
Substitution of template arguments into a nested-requirement does not result in substitution into the constraint-expression other than as specified in [temp.constr.constr].
[Example 1:
template<typename U> concept C = sizeof(U) == 1; template<typename T> concept D = requires (T t) { requires C<decltype (+t)>; }; D<T> is satisfied if sizeof(decltype (+t)) == 1 ([temp.constr.atomic]).
— end example]
A local parameter shall only appear as an unevaluated operand within the constraint-expression.
[Example 2: template<typename T> concept C = requires (T a) { requires sizeof(a) == 4; // OK requires a == 0; // error: evaluation of a constraint variable }; — end example]
