This is useful when writing template code. +For example, when making a copy of an array of an unknown type, it helps +to know if the type has a trivial copy constructor or not, to help decide +if a memcpy can be used. + +The class template __type_traits provides a series of typedefs each of +which is either __true_type or __false_type. The argument to +__type_traits can be any type. The typedefs within this template will +attain their correct values by one of these means: + 1. The general instantiation contain conservative values which work + for all types. + 2. Specializations may be declared to make distinctions between types. + 3. Some compilers (such as the Silicon Graphics N32 and N64 compilers) + will automatically provide the appropriate specializations for all + types. + +EXAMPLE: + +//Copy an array of elements which have non-trivial copy constructors +template <class T> void copy(T* source,T* destination,int n,__false_type); +//Copy an array of elements which have trivial copy constructors.
