Explore how static reflection in C++26 can revolutionize type traits by eliminating the need for compiler intrinsics in this conference talk from Meeting C++ 2025. Discover the current limitations of type traits like std::is_class that require special compiler support through non-portable intrinsics, and learn how the upcoming static reflection features can provide a superior, portable solution. Examine the convergence of type traits and static reflection technologies, understand their combined potential for generic programming and metaprogramming, and consider a future where compiler and library dependencies are decoupled for more flexible C++ development.
