I want to send a var to a function if is it a class. I try with std::is_class but this gave me an erros because std::is_class is run time and not a preprocessor. I can't make the preprocessor if to work. any suggestions? in the function 'toJson' in the loop I am adding the types to the json object. I need to check if the type is class, for recursive adding the classes fields to the json object.

template<typename Class, typename T>struct PropertyImpl { constexpr PropertyImpl(T Class::* aMember, const char* aName) : member{ aMember }, name{ aName } {} using Type = T; T Class::* member; const char* name;};template<typename Class, typename T>constexpr auto property(T Class::* member, const char* name) { return PropertyImpl<Class, T>{member, name};}template <typename T, T... S, typename F>constexpr void for_sequence(std::integer_sequence<T, S...>, F&& f) { (static_cast<void>(f(std::integral_constant<T, S>{})), ...);}// the error in this functiontemplate<typename T>json toJson(const T& object){ json data; // We first get the number of properties constexpr auto nbProperties = std::tuple_size<decltype(T::properties)>::value; // We iterate on the index sequence of size `nbProperties` for_sequence(std::make_index_sequence<nbProperties>{}, [&](auto i) { // get the property constexpr auto property = std::get<i>(T::properties); using Type = typename decltype(property)::Type; #if __is_class(Type) // C1017 // data[property.name] = toJson(object.*(property.member)) // recursive add the object fields #else // addFind(data, object.*(property.member), property.name)) // add the object field (WORK) #endif }); return data;}
example of using toJson:
#define PROPERTY(CLASS, MEMBER) property(&CLASS::MEMBER, #MEMBER) struct GetRooms { unsigned int status = 0; RoomData roomData; string name; constexpr static auto properties = std::make_tuple( PROPERTY(GetRooms, status), PROPERTY(GetRooms, roomData), PROPERTY(GetRooms, name) ); }; GetRooms var; json varAsJson = toJson(var);
