20.15 Metaprogramming and type traits [meta]

20.15.5 Unary type traits [meta.unary]

20.15.5.3 Composite type traits [meta.unary.comp]

These templates provide convenient compositions of the primary type categories, corresponding to the descriptions given in subclause [basic.types].
For any given type T, the result of applying one of these templates to T and to cv T shall yield the same result.
