Metafunction removing a top-level const qualifier from a type.

Synopsis

Declared in <bslmf_removeconst.h>

template<class t_TYPE>
struct remove_const;

Description

This struct template implements the remove_const meta-function defined in the C++11 standard [meta.trans.cv], providing an alias, type, that returns the result. type has the same type as the (template parameter) t_TYPE except that any top-level const-qualifier has been removed. Note that this generic default template provides a type that is an alias to t_TYPE for when t_TYPE is not const-qualified. A template specialization is provided (below) that removes the const-qualifier for when t_TYPE is const-qualified.
