std::is_convertible, std::is_nothrow_convertible - cppreference.com

template< class From, class To >
struct is_convertible;

(1) (since C++11)

template< class From, class To >
struct is_nothrow_convertible;

(2) (since C++20) 1)

If the imaginary function definition

To test() { return std::declval<From>(); }

is well-formed, (that is, either

std::declval<From>()

can be converted to

To

using

implicit conversions

, or both

From

and

To

are possibly cv-qualified

void

), provides the member constant

value

equal to

true

. Otherwise

value

is

false

. For the purposes of this check, the use of

std::declval

in the return statement is not considered an

ODR-use

.

If To is a reference type and a temporary object would be created when binding std::declval<From>() to To, the return statement in the imaginary function is considered well-formed, even though such binding is ill-formed in an actual function.

(since C++26) Access checks

are performed as if from a context unrelated to either type. Only the validity of the immediate context of the expression in the return statement (including conversions to the return type) is considered.

2) Same as (1), but the conversion is also noexcept.

If From or To is not a complete type, (possibly cv-qualified) void, or an array of unknown bound, the behavior is undefined.

If an instantiation of a template above depends, directly or indirectly, on an incomplete type, and that instantiation could yield a different result if that type were hypothetically completed, the behavior is undefined.

If the program adds specializations for any of the templates described on this page, the behavior is undefined.

[edit] Helper variable template

template< class From, class To >
constexpr bool is_convertible_v = is_convertible<From, To>::value;

(since C++17)

template< class From, class To >
constexpr bool is_nothrow_convertible_v = is_nothrow_convertible<From, To>::value;

(since C++20) Inherited from std::integral_constant Member constants true if From is convertible to To, false otherwise

[edit] Notes

Gives well-defined results for reference types, void types, array types, and function types.

Currently the standard has not specified whether the destruction of the object produced by the conversion (either a result object or a temporary bound to a reference) is considered as a part of the conversion. This is LWG issue 3400.

All known implementations treat the destruction as a part of the conversion, as proposed in P0758R1.

[edit] Example
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <string_view>
#include <type_traits>
 
class E { public: template<class T> E(T&&) {} };
 
int main()
{
    class A {};
    class B : public A {};
    class C {};
    class D { public: operator C() { return c; } C c; };
 
    static_assert(std::is_convertible_v<B*, A*>);
    static_assert(!std::is_convertible_v<A*, B*>);
    static_assert(std::is_convertible_v<D, C>);
    static_assert(!std::is_convertible_v<B*, C*>);
    // Note that the Perfect Forwarding constructor makes the class E be
    // "convertible" from everything. So, A is replaceable by B, C, D..:
    static_assert(std::is_convertible_v<A, E>);
 
    static_assert(!std::is_convertible_v<std::string_view, std::string>);
    static_assert(std::is_convertible_v<std::string, std::string_view>);
 
    auto stringify = []<typename T>(T x)
    {
        if constexpr (std::is_convertible_v<T, std::string> or
                      std::is_convertible_v<T, std::string_view>)
            return x;
        else
            return std::to_string(x);
    };
 
    using std::operator "" s, std::operator "" sv;
    const char* three = "three";
 
    std::cout << std::quoted(stringify("one"s)) << ' '
              << std::quoted(stringify("two"sv)) << ' '
              << std::quoted(stringify(three)) << ' '
              << std::quoted(stringify(42)) << ' '
              << std::quoted(stringify(42.0)) << '\n';
}

Output:

"one" "two" "three" "42" "42.000000"
