# eval_if_c

### Synopsis

    template<
          bool c
        , typename F1
        , typename F2
        >
    struct eval_if_c
    {
        typedef unspecified type;
    };

### Description

Evaluates one of its two nullary-metafunction arguments, `F1` or `F2`, depending on the value of integral constant `c`. `eval_if_c<c,f1,f2>::type` is a shorcut notation for `eval_if< bool_<c>,f1,f2 >::type`.

### Header

    #include <boost/mpl/eval_if.hpp>

### Parameters

Parameter | Requirement | Description
--- | --- | ---
`c` | An integral constant | An evaluation condition.
`F1`, `F2` | Nullary Metafunction | Metafunctions to select for evaluation from.

### Expression semantics

For any integral constant `c` and nullary Metafunctions `f1`, `f2`:

    typedef eval_if_c<c,f1,f2>::type t;

Return type: | Any type.
Semantics: | Equivalent to `typedef eval_if< bool_<c>,f1,f2 >::type t;`

### Example

    typedef eval_if_c< true, identity<char>, identity<long> >::type t1;
    typedef eval_if_c< false, identity<char>, identity<long> >::type t2;

    BOOST_MPL_ASSERT(( is_same<t1,char> ));
    BOOST_MPL_ASSERT(( is_same<t2,long> ));
