FormatCOUT_test Class Reference

Description

Test:

How to build generic string conversion into ostream::operator<<.

This task (#985) was actually a conglomerate of several chores:

• sanitise and segregate the type-traits usage
• disentangle the existing util::str() conversion helper
• extract a basic form from this helper, which can be placed into a header with minimal dependencies. After some consideration, I decided to allow <typeinfo> in this category, which allows us at least to show a type name as fallback
• distill an essential version of enable_if, which can be inlined. This allowed us to get rid of boost::enable_if finally.
• build a sensible operator string() for our lib::P based on this
• and finally, to come up with a templated version of the ostream inserter operator<<, which does not cause too much havoc when used by default. The greatest challenge here is to avoid ambiguous overloads, yet also to deal with references, void and arrays.
