The patch introduces three concepts:
AccessTraits
,Primitives
(same asAccessTraits
) andPredicates
(AccessTraits
+ tag). I put them intoConcepts
namespace.In general, it works fine. One corner point is how it interacts with CTAD.
clang
evaluates the right hand side of CTAD before testing the concept, which leads to suboptimal errors instead of ignoring the CTAD (see godbolt). GCC, on the other hand, has a better treatment and properly rejects CTAD due to the unsatisfied requirement.
