Re: [Boost-users] Boost TraitsType Question

Hi, why don't you use overloading for this? void setTag(short myVariable){ //do something } void setTag(long myVariable){ //do something } On 2012-10-04 19:58, Rawate, Vishal CIV NAVAIR-WD-5-2-7-1-1-0-E., 527110E wrote:

Hello,

I am writing a function using templates in C++.I want to find the type of variable that is being to the function. I was wondering if I could use the Boost TypeTraits library or is there another library that I can use. I would highly appreciate any help.

Thanking in advance.

CodeSnipet:

Template<typename T>

Void setTag(T myVariable) { If(T == short) { Do something; }

If(T == long) { Do something; }
