template ReturnType(func...) if (func.length == 1 && isCallable!func)
Get the type of the return value from a function, a pointer to function, a delegate, a struct with an opCall, a pointer to a struct with an opCall, or a class with an opCall. Please note that ref is not part of a type, but the attribute of the function (see template functionAttributes).
Examples: 
int foo();
ReturnType!foo x;   // x is declared as int
template Parameters(func...) if (func.length == 1 && isCallable!func)
Get, as a tuple, the types of the parameters to a function, a pointer to function, a delegate, a struct with an opCall, a pointer to a struct with an opCall, or a class with an opCall.

template ParameterDefaults(func...) if (func.length == 1 && isCallable!func)
Get, as a tuple, the default value of the parameters to a function symbol. If a parameter doesn't have the default value, void is returned instead.
Examples: 
int foo(int num, string name = "hello", int[] = [1,2,3]);
static assert(is(ParameterDefaults!foo[0] == void));
static assert(   ParameterDefaults!foo[1] == "hello");
static assert(   ParameterDefaults!foo[2] == [1,2,3]);
alias ParameterDefaultValueTuple = ParameterDefaults(func...) if (func.length == 1 && isCallable!func);

template isSafe(alias func) if (isCallable!func)
true if func is @safe or @trusted.
Examples: 
@safe    int add(int a, int b) {return a+b;}
@trusted int sub(int a, int b) {return a-b;}
@system  int mul(int a, int b) {return a*b;}

static assert( isSafe!add);
static assert( isSafe!sub);
static assert(!isSafe!mul);
enum auto isUnsafe(alias func);
true if func is @system.
Examples: 
@safe    int add(int a, int b) {return a+b;}
@trusted int sub(int a, int b) {return a-b;}
@system  int mul(int a, int b) {return a*b;}

string a = functionLinkage!Dfunc;
assert(a == "D");

auto fp = &Cfunc;
string b = functionLinkage!fp;
assert(b == "C");
enum Variadic: int;

template variadicFunctionStyle(func...) if (func.length == 1 && isCallable!func)
Determines what kind of variadic parameters function has.
Examples: 
void func() {}
static assert(variadicFunctionStyle!func == Variadic.no);

extern(C) int printf(in char*, ...);
static assert(variadicFunctionStyle!printf == Variadic.c);
no
Function is not variadic.
c
Function is a C-style variadic function.
d
Function is a D-style variadic function, which uses
_argptr and _arguments.
typesafe
Function is a typesafe variadic function.
template FunctionTypeOf(func...) if (func.length == 1 && isCallable!func)
Get the function type from a callable object func.
Using builtin typeof on a property function yields the types of the property value, not of the property function itself. Still, FunctionTypeOf is able to obtain function types of properties.

Note: Do not confuse function types with function pointer types; function types are usually used for compile-time reflection purposes.

Examples: 
class C
{
    int value() @property { return 0; }
}
static assert(is( typeof(C.value) == int ));
static assert(is( FunctionTypeOf!(C.value) == function ));
template SetFunctionAttributes(T, string linkage, uint attrs) if (isFunctionPointer!T || isDelegate!T)

template SetFunctionAttributes(T, string linkage, uint attrs) if (is(T == function))
Constructs a new function or delegate type with the same basic signature as the given one, but different attributes (including linkage).
This is especially useful for adding/removing attributes to/from types in generic code, where the actual type name cannot be spelt out.
Parameters:
T The base type.
linkage The desired linkage of the result type.
attrs The desired FunctionAttributes of the result type.
Examples: 
alias ExternC(T) = SetFunctionAttributes!(T, "C", functionAttributes!T);

auto assumePure(T)(T t)
    if (isFunctionPointer!T || isDelegate!T)
{
    enum attrs = functionAttributes!T | FunctionAttribute.pure_;
    return cast(SetFunctionAttributes!(T, functionLinkage!T, attrs)) t;
}
template isInnerClass(T) if (is(T == class))
Determines whether T is a class nested inside another class and that T.outer is the implicit reference to the outer class (i.e. outer has not been used as a field or method name)
Parameters:
T type to test
Returns:
true if T is a class nested inside another, with the conditions described above; false otherwise
Examples: 
class C
{
    int outer;
}
static assert(!isInnerClass!C);

class Outer1
{
    class Inner1 { }
    class Inner2
    {
        int outer;
    }
}
static assert(isInnerClass!(Outer1.Inner1));
static assert(!isInnerClass!(Outer1.Inner2));

static class Outer2
{
    static class Inner
    {
        int outer;
    }
}
static assert(!isInnerClass!(Outer2.Inner));
template isNested(T) if (is(T == class) || is(T == struct) || is(T == union))
Determines whether T has its own context pointer. T must be either class, struct, or union.
Examples: 
static struct S { }
static assert(!isNested!S);

int i;
struct NestedStruct { void f() { ++i; } }
static assert(isNested!NestedStruct);
template hasNested(T)
Determines whether T or any of its representation types have a context pointer.
Examples: 
static struct S { }

int i;
struct NS { void f() { ++i; } }

static assert(!hasNested!(S[2]));
static assert(hasNested!(NS[2]));
template Fields(T)
Get as a tuple the types of the fields of a struct, class, or union. This consists of the fields that take up memory space, excluding the hidden fields like the virtual function table pointer or a context pointer for nested types. If T isn't a struct, class, or union returns a tuple with one element T.
Examples: 
struct S { int x; float y; }
static assert(is(Fields!S == TypeTuple!(int, float)));
alias FieldTypeTuple = Fields(T);
Alternate name for Fields, kept for legacy compatibility.
template FieldNameTuple(T)
Get as an expression tuple the names of the fields of a struct, class, or union. This consists of the fields that take up memory space, excluding the hidden fields like the virtual function table pointer or a context pointer for nested types. If T isn't a struct, class, or union returns an expression tuple with an empty string.
Examples: 
struct S { int x; float y; }
static assert(FieldNameTuple!S == TypeTuple!("x", "y"));
static assert(FieldNameTuple!int == TypeTuple!"");
template RepresentationTypeTuple(T)
Get the primitive types of the fields of a struct or class, in topological order.
Examples: 
struct S1 { int a; float b; }
struct S2 { char[] a; union { S1 b; S1 * c; } }
alias R = RepresentationTypeTuple!S2;
assert(R.length == 4
    && is(R[0] == char[]) && is(R[1] == int)
    && is(R[2] == float) && is(R[3] == S1*));
template hasAliasing(T...)
Returns true if and only if T's representation includes at least one of the following:
  1. a raw pointer U* and U is not immutable;
  2. an array U[] and U is not immutable;
  3. a reference to a class or interface type C and C is not immutable.
  4. an associative array that is not immutable.
  5. a delegate.
Examples: 
struct S1 { int a; Object b; }
struct S2 { string a; }
struct S3 { int a; immutable Object b; }
struct S4 { float[3] vals; }
static assert( hasAliasing!S1);
static assert(!hasAliasing!S2);
static assert(!hasAliasing!S3);
static assert(!hasAliasing!S4);
template hasIndirections(T)
Returns true if and only if T's representation includes at least one of the following:
  1. a raw pointer U*;
  2. an array U[];
  3. a reference to a class type C.
  4. an associative array.
  5. a delegate.
Examples: 
static assert( hasIndirections!(int[string]));
static assert( hasIndirections!(void delegate()));
static assert( hasIndirections!(void delegate() immutable));
static assert( hasIndirections!(immutable(void delegate())));
static assert( hasIndirections!(immutable(void delegate() immutable)));

static assert(!hasIndirections!(void function()));
static assert( hasIndirections!(void*[1]));
static assert(!hasIndirections!(byte[1]));
template hasUnsharedAliasing(T...)
Returns true if and only if T's representation includes at least one of the following:
  1. a raw pointer U* and U is not immutable or shared;
  2. an array U[] and U is not immutable or shared;
  3. a reference to a class type C and C is not immutable or shared.
  4. an associative array that is not immutable or shared.
  5. a delegate that is not shared.
Examples: 
struct S1 { int a; Object b; }
struct S2 { string a; }
struct S3 { int a; immutable Object b; }
static assert( hasUnsharedAliasing!S1);
static assert(!hasUnsharedAliasing!S2);
static assert(!hasUnsharedAliasing!S3);

struct S4 { int a; shared Object b; }
struct S5 { char[] a; }
struct S6 { shared char[] b; }
struct S7 { float[3] vals; }
static assert(!hasUnsharedAliasing!S4);
static assert( hasUnsharedAliasing!S5);
static assert(!hasUnsharedAliasing!S6);
static assert(!hasUnsharedAliasing!S7);
template hasElaborateCopyConstructor(S)
True if S or any type embedded directly in the representation of S defines an elaborate copy constructor. Elaborate copy constructors are introduced by defining this(this) for a struct.
Classes and unions never have elaborate copy constructors.
Examples: 
static assert(!hasElaborateCopyConstructor!int);

static struct S1 { }
static struct S2 { this(this) {} }
static struct S3 { S2 field; }
static struct S4 { S3[1] field; }
static struct S5 { S3[] field; }
static struct S6 { S3[0] field; }
static struct S7 { @disable this(); S3 field; }
static assert(!hasElaborateCopyConstructor!S1);
static assert( hasElaborateCopyConstructor!S2);
static assert( hasElaborateCopyConstructor!(immutable S2));
static assert( hasElaborateCopyConstructor!S3);
static assert( hasElaborateCopyConstructor!(S3[1]));
static assert(!hasElaborateCopyConstructor!(S3[0]));
static assert( hasElaborateCopyConstructor!S4);
static assert(!hasElaborateCopyConstructor!S5);
static assert(!hasElaborateCopyConstructor!S6);
static assert( hasElaborateCopyConstructor!S7);
template hasElaborateAssign(S)
True if S or any type directly embedded in the representation of S defines an elaborate assignment. Elaborate assignments are introduced by defining opAssign(typeof(this)) or opAssign(ref typeof(this)) for a struct or when there is a compiler-generated opAssign.
A type S gets compiler-generated opAssign in case it has an elaborate copy constructor or elaborate destructor.
Classes and unions never have elaborate assignments.

Note: Structs with (possibly nested) postblit operator(s) will have a hidden yet elaborate compiler generated assignment operator (unless explicitly disabled).

Examples: 
static assert(!hasElaborateAssign!int);

static struct S  { void opAssign(S) {} }
static assert( hasElaborateAssign!S);
static assert(!hasElaborateAssign!(const(S)));

static struct S1 { void opAssign(ref S1) {} }
static struct S2 { void opAssign(int) {} }
static struct S3 { S s; }
static assert( hasElaborateAssign!S1);
static assert(!hasElaborateAssign!S2);
static assert( hasElaborateAssign!S3);
static assert( hasElaborateAssign!(S3[1]));
static assert(!hasElaborateAssign!(S3[0]));
template hasElaborateDestructor(S)
True if S or any type directly embedded in the representation of S defines an elaborate destructor. Elaborate destructors are introduced by defining ~this() for a struct.
Classes and unions never have elaborate destructors, even though classes may define ~this().
Examples: 
static assert(!hasElaborateDestructor!int);

static struct S1 { }
static struct S2 { ~this() {} }
static struct S3 { S2 field; }
static struct S4 { S3[1] field; }
static struct S5 { S3[] field; }
static struct S6 { S3[0] field; }
static struct S7 { @disable this(); S3 field; }
static assert(!hasElaborateDestructor!S1);
static assert( hasElaborateDestructor!S2);
static assert( hasElaborateDestructor!(immutable S2));
static assert( hasElaborateDestructor!S3);
static assert( hasElaborateDestructor!(S3[1]));
static assert(!hasElaborateDestructor!(S3[0]));
static assert( hasElaborateDestructor!S4);
static assert(!hasElaborateDestructor!S5);
static assert(!hasElaborateDestructor!S6);
static assert( hasElaborateDestructor!S7);
enum auto hasMember(T, string name);
Yields true if and only if T is an aggregate that defines a symbol called name.
Examples: 
static assert(!hasMember!(int, "blah"));
struct S1 { int blah; }
struct S2 { int blah(){ return 0; } }
class C1 { int blah; }
class C2 { int blah(){ return 0; } }
static assert(hasMember!(S1, "blah"));
static assert(hasMember!(S2, "blah"));
static assert(hasMember!(C1, "blah"));
static assert(hasMember!(C2, "blah"));
template EnumMembers(E) if (is(E == enum))
Retrieves the members of an enumerated type enum E.
Parameters:
E An enumerated type. E may have duplicated values.
Returns:
Static tuple composed of the members of the enumerated type E. The members are arranged in the same order as declared in E.

Note: An enum can have multiple members which have the same value. If you want to use EnumMembers to e.g. generate switch cases at compile-time, you should use the std.typetuple.NoDuplicates template to avoid generating duplicate switch cases.

Note: Returned values are strictly typed with E. Thus, the following code does not work without the explicit cast: 

enum E : int { a, b, c }
int[] abc = cast(int[]) [ EnumMembers!E ];
Cast is not necessary if the type of the variable is inferred. See the example below.

Example: Creating an array of enumerated values: 

enum Sqrts : real
{
    one   = 1,
    two   = 1.41421,
    three = 1.73205,
}
auto sqrts = [ EnumMembers!Sqrts ];
assert(sqrts == [ Sqrts.one, Sqrts.two, Sqrts.three ]);
A generic function rank(v) in the following example uses this template for finding a member e in an enumerated type E. 
// Returns i if e is the i-th enumerator of E.
size_t rank(E)(E e)
    if (is(E == enum))
{
    foreach (i, member; EnumMembers!E)
    {
        if (e == member)
            return i;
    }
    assert(0, "Not an enum member");
}

enum Mode
{
    read  = 1,
    write = 2,
    map   = 4,
}
assert(rank(Mode.read ) == 0);
assert(rank(Mode.write) == 1);
assert(rank(Mode.map  ) == 2);

template BaseTypeTuple(A)
Get a TypeTuple of the base class and base interfaces of this class or interface. BaseTypeTuple!Object returns the empty type tuple.
Examples: 
interface I1 { }
interface I2 { }
interface I12 : I1, I2 { }
static assert(is(BaseTypeTuple!I12 == TypeTuple!(I1, I2)));

interface I3 : I1 { }
interface I123 : I1, I2, I3 { }
static assert(is(BaseTypeTuple!I123 == TypeTuple!(I1, I2, I3)));
template BaseClassesTuple(T) if (is(T == class))
Get a TypeTuple of all base classes of this class, in decreasing order. Interfaces are not included. BaseClassesTuple!Object yields the empty type tuple.
Examples: 
class C1 { }
class C2 : C1 { }
class C3 : C2 { }
static assert(!BaseClassesTuple!Object.length);
static assert(is(BaseClassesTuple!C1 == TypeTuple!(Object)));
static assert(is(BaseClassesTuple!C2 == TypeTuple!(C1, Object)));
static assert(is(BaseClassesTuple!C3 == TypeTuple!(C2, C1, Object)));
template InterfacesTuple(T)
Get a TypeTuple of all interfaces directly or indirectly inherited by this class or interface. Interfaces do not repeat if multiply implemented. InterfacesTuple!Object yields the empty type tuple.
template TransitiveBaseTypeTuple(T)
Get a TypeTuple of all base classes of T, in decreasing order, followed by T's interfaces. TransitiveBaseTypeTuple!Object yields the empty type tuple.
Examples: 
interface J1 {}
interface J2 {}
class B1 {}
class B2 : B1, J1, J2 {}
class B3 : B2, J1 {}
alias TL = TransitiveBaseTypeTuple!B3;
assert(TL.length == 5);
assert(is (TL[0] == B2));
assert(is (TL[1] == B1));
assert(is (TL[2] == Object));
assert(is (TL[3] == J1));
assert(is (TL[4] == J2));

assert(TransitiveBaseTypeTuple!Object.length == 0);
template MemberFunctionsTuple(C, string name) if (is(C == class) || is(C == interface))
Returns a tuple of non-static functions with the name name declared in the class or interface C. Covariant duplicates are shrunk into the most derived one.
Examples: 
interface I { I foo(); }
class B
{
    real foo(real v) { return v; }
}
class C : B, I
{
    override C foo() { return this; } // covariant overriding of I.foo()
}
alias foos = MemberFunctionsTuple!(C, "foo");
static assert(foos.length == 2);
static assert(__traits(isSame, foos[0], C.foo));
static assert(__traits(isSame, foos[1], B.foo));
template TemplateOf(alias T : Base!Args, alias Base, Args...)

template TemplateOf(T : Base!Args, alias Base, Args...)
Returns an alias to the template that T is an instance of.
Examples: 
struct Foo(T, U) {}
static assert(__traits(isSame, TemplateOf!(Foo!(int, real)), Foo));
template TemplateArgsOf(alias T : Base!Args, alias Base, Args...)

template TemplateArgsOf(T : Base!Args, alias Base, Args...)
Returns a TypeTuple of the template arguments used to instantiate T.
Examples: 
struct Foo(T, U) {}
static assert(is(TemplateArgsOf!(Foo!(int, real)) == TypeTuple!(int, real)));
template classInstanceAlignment(T) if (is(T == class))
Returns class instance alignment.
Examples: 
class A { byte b; }
class B { long l; }

// As class instance always has a hidden pointer
static assert(classInstanceAlignment!A == (void*).alignof);
static assert(classInstanceAlignment!B == long.alignof);
template CommonType(T...)
Get the type that all types can be implicitly converted to. Useful e.g. in figuring out an array type from a bunch of initializing values. Returns void if passed an empty list, or if the types have no common type.
Examples: 
alias X = CommonType!(int, long, short);
assert(is(X == long));
alias Y = CommonType!(int, char[], short);
assert(is(Y == void));
template ImplicitConversionTargets(T)
Returns a tuple with all possible target types of an implicit conversion of a value of type T.
Important note:
The possible targets are computed more conservatively than the D 2.005 compiler does, eliminating all dangerous conversions. For example, ImplicitConversionTargets!double does not include float.
enum bool isImplicitlyConvertible(From, To);
Is From implicitly convertible to To?
Examples: 
static assert( isImplicitlyConvertible!(immutable(char), char));
static assert( isImplicitlyConvertible!(const(char), char));
static assert( isImplicitlyConvertible!(char, wchar));
static assert(!isImplicitlyConvertible!(wchar, char));

static assert(!isImplicitlyConvertible!(const(ushort), ubyte));
static assert(!isImplicitlyConvertible!(const(uint), ubyte));
static assert(!isImplicitlyConvertible!(const(ulong), ubyte));

static assert(!isImplicitlyConvertible!(const(char)[], string));
static assert( isImplicitlyConvertible!(string, const(char)[]));
enum auto isAssignable(Lhs, Rhs = Lhs);
Returns true iff a value of type Rhs can be assigned to a variable of type Lhs.
isAssignable returns whether both an lvalue and rvalue can be assigned.
If you omit Rhs, isAssignable will check identity assignable of Lhs.
Examples: 
static assert( isAssignable!(long, int));
static assert(!isAssignable!(int, long));
static assert( isAssignable!(const(char)[], string));
static assert(!isAssignable!(string, char[]));

// int is assignable to int
static assert( isAssignable!int);

// immutable int is not assignable to immutable int
static assert(!isAssignable!(immutable int));
template isCovariantWith(F, G) if (is(F == function) && is(G == function))
Determines whether the function type F is covariant with G, i.e., functions of the type F can override ones of the type G.
Examples: 
interface I { I clone(); }
interface J { J clone(); }
class C : I
{
    override C clone()   // covariant overriding of I.clone()
    {
        return new C;
    }
}

// C.clone() can override I.clone(), indeed.
static assert(isCovariantWith!(typeof(C.clone), typeof(I.clone)));

// C.clone() can't override J.clone(); the return type C is not implicitly
// convertible to J.
static assert(!isCovariantWith!(typeof(C.clone), typeof(J.clone)));
@property T rvalueOf(T)(inout __InoutWorkaroundStruct = __InoutWorkaroundStruct.init);

@property ref T lvalueOf(T)(inout __InoutWorkaroundStruct = __InoutWorkaroundStruct.init);
Creates an lvalue or rvalue of type T for typeof(...) and _traits(compiles, ...) purposes. No actual value is returned.

Note: Trying to use returned value will result in a "Symbol Undefined" error at link time.

Example: 

// Note that `f` doesn't have to be implemented
// as is isn't called.
int f(int);
bool f(ref int);
static assert(is(typeof(f(rvalueOf!int)) == int));
static assert(is(typeof(f(lvalueOf!int)) == bool));

int i = rvalueOf!int; // error, no actual value is returned

enum bool isBoolean(T);
Detect whether T is a built-in boolean type.
Examples: 
static assert( isBoolean!bool);
enum EB : bool { a = true }
static assert( isBoolean!EB);

template allSameType(T...)
Returns:
true iff all types T are the same.
Examples: 
static assert(allSameType!(int, int));
static assert(allSameType!(int, int, int));
static assert(allSameType!(float, float, float));
static assert(!allSameType!(int, double));
static assert(!allSameType!(int, float, double));
static assert(!allSameType!(int, float, double, real));
static assert(!allSameType!(short, int, float, double, real));
enum auto ifTestable(T, alias pred = (a) => a);
Returns:
true iff the type T can be tested in an if-expression, that is if if (pred(T.init)) {} is compilable.
template isType(X...) if (X.length == 1)
Detect whether X is a type. Analogous to is(X). This is useful when used in conjunction with other templates, e.g. allSatisfy!(isType, X).
Returns:
true if X is a type, false otherwise
Examples: 
struct S {
    template Test() {}
}
class C {}
interface I {}
union U {}
static assert(isType!int);
static assert(isType!string);
static assert(isType!(int[int]));
static assert(isType!S);
static assert(isType!C);
static assert(isType!I);
static assert(isType!U);

int n;
void func(){}
static assert(!isType!n);
static assert(!isType!func);
static assert(!isType!(S.Test));
static assert(!isType!(S.Test!()));
template isFunction(X...) if (X.length == 1)
Detect whether symbol or type X is a function. This is different that finding if a symbol is callable or satisfying is(X == function), it finds specifically if the symbol represents a normal function declaration, i.e. not a delegate or a function pointer.
Returns:
true if X is a function, false otherwise
See Also:
Use isFunctionPointer.isFunctionPointer or isDelegate.isDelegate for detecting those types respectively.
Examples: 
static void func(){}
static assert(isFunction!func);

struct S
{
    void func(){}
}
static assert(isFunction!(S.func));
template isFinal(X...) if (X.length == 1)
Detect whether X is a final method or class.
Returns:
true if X is final, false otherwise
Examples: 
class C
{
    void nf() {}
    static void sf() {}
    final void ff() {}
}
final class FC { }

static assert(!isFinal!(C));
static assert( isFinal!(FC));

static assert(!isFinal!(C.nf));
static assert(!isFinal!(C.sf));
static assert( isFinal!(C.ff));
enum auto isCopyable(S);
Determines whether the type S can be copied. If a type cannot be copied, then code such as MyStruct x; auto y = x; will fail to compile. Copying for structs can be disabled by using @disable this(this).
Parameters:
S The type to check.
Returns:
true if S can be copied. false otherwise.
Examples: 
struct S1 {}                        // Fine. Can be copied
struct S2 {         this(this) {}}  // Fine. Can be copied
struct S3 {@disable this(this) {}}  // Not fine. Copying is disabled.
struct S4 {S3 s;}                   // Not fine. A field has copying disabled.

class C1 {}

static assert( isCopyable!S1);
static assert( isCopyable!S2);
static assert(!isCopyable!S3);
static assert(!isCopyable!S4);

static assert(isCopyable!C1);
static assert(isCopyable!int);
