std::is_same - cppreference.com

template< class T, class U >
struct is_same;

(since C++11)

If T and U name the same type (taking into account const/volatile qualifications), provides the member constant value equal to true. Otherwise value is false.

Commutativity is satisfied, i.e. for any two types T and U, is_same<T, U>::value == true if and only if is_same<U, T>::value == true.

If the program adds specializations for std::is_same or std::is_same_v(since C++17), the behavior is undefined.

[edit] Helper variable template

template< class T, class U >
constexpr bool is_same_v = is_same<T, U>::value;

(since C++17) Inherited from std::integral_constant Member constants true if T and U are the same type, false otherwise
(public static member constant) Member functions converts the object to bool, returns value
(public member function) returns value
(public member function) Member types [edit] Possible implementation [edit] Example
#include <cstdint>
#include <iostream>
#include <type_traits>
 
#define SHOW(...) std::cout << #__VA_ARGS__ << " : " << __VA_ARGS__ << '\n'
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << std::boolalpha;
 
    // some implementation-defined facts
 
    // usually true if 'int' is 32 bit
    SHOW( std::is_same<int, std::int32_t>::value ); // maybe true
    // possibly true if ILP64 data model is used
    SHOW( std::is_same<int, std::int64_t>::value ); // maybe false
 
    // same tests as above, except using C++17's std::is_same_v<T, U> format
    SHOW( std::is_same_v<int, std::int32_t> ); // maybe true
    SHOW( std::is_same_v<int, std::int64_t> ); // maybe false
 
    // compare the types of a couple variables
    long double num1 = 1.0;
    long double num2 = 2.0;
    static_assert( std::is_same_v<decltype(num1), decltype(num2)> == true );
 
    // 'float' is never an integral type
    static_assert( std::is_same<float, std::int32_t>::value == false );
 
    // 'int' is implicitly 'signed'
    static_assert( std::is_same_v<int, int> == true );
    static_assert( std::is_same_v<int, unsigned int> == false );
    static_assert( std::is_same_v<int, signed int> == true );
 
    // unlike other types, 'char' is neither 'unsigned' nor 'signed'
    static_assert( std::is_same_v<char, char> == true );
    static_assert( std::is_same_v<char, unsigned char> == false );
    static_assert( std::is_same_v<char, signed char> == false );
 
    // const-qualified type T is not same as non-const T
    static_assert( !std::is_same<const int, int>() );
}
#undef SHOW

Possible output:

std::is_same<int, std::int32_t>::value : true
std::is_same<int, std::int64_t>::value : false
std::is_same_v<int, std::int32_t> : true
std::is_same_v<int, std::int64_t> : false
