这个问题很老了，但是在c++ 11中，我们有了一种新的方法来检查函数是否存在(或者任何非类型成员是否存在)，再次依赖SFINAE:

template<class T>
auto serialize_imp(std::ostream& os, T const& obj, int)
    -> decltype(os << obj, void())
{
  os << obj;
}

template<class T>
auto serialize_imp(std::ostream& os, T const& obj, long)
    -> decltype(obj.stream(os), void())
{
  obj.stream(os);
}

template<class T>
auto serialize(std::ostream& os, T const& obj)
    -> decltype(serialize_imp(os, obj, 0), void())
{
  serialize_imp(os, obj, 0);
}

现在来解释一下。首先，我使用表达式SFINAE从重载解析中排除序列化(_imp)函数，如果decltype中的第一个表达式无效(即函数不存在)。

void()用于使所有这些函数的返回类型为空。

如果os << obj重载都可用，则使用0参数优先选择os << obj重载(字面量0是int类型，因此第一个重载是更好的匹配)。

---

现在，您可能需要一个trait来检查函数是否存在。幸运的是，这很容易写出来。不过，请注意，您需要为可能需要的每个不同函数名自己编写trait。

#include <type_traits>

template<class>
struct sfinae_true : std::true_type{};

namespace detail{
  template<class T, class A0>
  static auto test_stream(int)
      -> sfinae_true<decltype(std::declval<T>().stream(std::declval<A0>()))>;
  template<class, class A0>
  static auto test_stream(long) -> std::false_type;
} // detail::

template<class T, class Arg>
struct has_stream : decltype(detail::test_stream<T, Arg>(0)){};

生活的例子。

And on to explanations. First, sfinae_true is a helper type, and it basically amounts to the same as writing decltype(void(std::declval<T>().stream(a0)), std::true_type{}). The advantage is simply that it's shorter. Next, the struct has_stream : decltype(...) inherits from either std::true_type or std::false_type in the end, depending on whether the decltype check in test_stream fails or not. Last, std::declval gives you a "value" of whatever type you pass, without you needing to know how you can construct it. Note that this is only possible inside an unevaluated context, such as decltype, sizeof and others.

---

注意，decltype不一定是必需的，因为sizeof(以及所有未求值的上下文)得到了增强。只是decltype已经交付了一个类型，因此更简洁。下面是其中一个重载的sizeof版本:

template<class T>
void serialize_imp(std::ostream& os, T const& obj, int,
    int(*)[sizeof((os << obj),0)] = 0)
{
  os << obj;
}

由于同样的原因，int和long形参仍然存在。数组指针用于提供可以使用sizeof的上下文。

虽然这个问题是两年前的事了，但我敢补充我的答案。希望它能澄清之前无可争议的优秀解决方案。我采纳了Nicola Bonelli和Johannes Schaub非常有用的答案，并将它们合并到一个解决方案中，恕我之言，这个解决方案更易于阅读，更清晰，不需要扩展类型:

template <class Type>
class TypeHasToString
{
    // This type won't compile if the second template parameter isn't of type T,
    // so I can put a function pointer type in the first parameter and the function
    // itself in the second thus checking that the function has a specific signature.
    template <typename T, T> struct TypeCheck;

    typedef char Yes;
    typedef long No;

    // A helper struct to hold the declaration of the function pointer.
    // Change it if the function signature changes.
    template <typename T> struct ToString
    {
        typedef void (T::*fptr)();
    };

    template <typename T> static Yes HasToString(TypeCheck< typename ToString<T>::fptr, &T::toString >*);
    template <typename T> static No  HasToString(...);

public:
    static bool const value = (sizeof(HasToString<Type>(0)) == sizeof(Yes));
};

我用gcc 4.1.2检查了它。 这主要归功于尼古拉·博内利和约翰内斯·绍布，如果我的回答对你有帮助，请给他们投票:)

我也遇到过类似的问题:

一个模板类，可以从少数基类派生，其中一些基类具有某个成员，而另一些基类没有。

我解决它类似于“typeof”(Nicola Bonelli)的答案，但使用decltype，所以它在MSVS上编译和正确运行:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

struct Generic {};    
struct HasMember 
{
  HasMember() : _a(1) {};
  int _a;
};    

// SFINAE test
template <typename T>
class S : public T
{
public:
  std::string foo (std::string b)
  {
    return foo2<T>(b,0);
  }

protected:
  template <typename T> std::string foo2 (std::string b, decltype (T::_a))
  {
    return b + std::to_string(T::_a);
  }
  template <typename T> std::string foo2 (std::string b, ...)
  {
    return b + "No";
  }
};

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  S<HasMember> d1;
  S<Generic> d2;

  std::cout << d1.foo("HasMember: ") << std::endl;
  std::cout << d2.foo("Generic: ") << std::endl;
  return 0;
}

下面是一些用法片段: *所有这些的核心都在更深处

在给定的类中检查成员x。可以是var, func, class, union或enum:

CREATE_MEMBER_CHECK(x);
bool has_x = has_member_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员函数void x():

//Func signature MUST have T as template variable here... simpler this way :\
CREATE_MEMBER_FUNC_SIG_CHECK(x, void (T::*)(), void__x);
bool has_func_sig_void__x = has_member_func_void__x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员变量x:

CREATE_MEMBER_VAR_CHECK(x);
bool has_var_x = has_member_var_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员类x:

CREATE_MEMBER_CLASS_CHECK(x);
bool has_class_x = has_member_class_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员工会x:

CREATE_MEMBER_UNION_CHECK(x);
bool has_union_x = has_member_union_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员enum x:

CREATE_MEMBER_ENUM_CHECK(x);
bool has_enum_x = has_member_enum_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查任何成员函数x，而不考虑签名:

CREATE_MEMBER_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_VAR_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_CLASS_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_UNION_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_ENUM_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_FUNC_CHECK(x);
bool has_any_func_x = has_member_func_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

OR

CREATE_MEMBER_CHECKS(x);  //Just stamps out the same macro calls as above.
bool has_any_func_x = has_member_func_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

细节和核心:

/*
    - Multiple inheritance forces ambiguity of member names.
    - SFINAE is used to make aliases to member names.
    - Expression SFINAE is used in just one generic has_member that can accept
      any alias we pass it.
*/

//Variadic to force ambiguity of class members.  C++11 and up.
template <typename... Args> struct ambiguate : public Args... {};

//Non-variadic version of the line above.
//template <typename A, typename B> struct ambiguate : public A, public B {};

template<typename A, typename = void>
struct got_type : std::false_type {};

template<typename A>
struct got_type<A> : std::true_type {
    typedef A type;
};

template<typename T, T>
struct sig_check : std::true_type {};

template<typename Alias, typename AmbiguitySeed>
struct has_member {
    template<typename C> static char ((&f(decltype(&C::value))))[1];
    template<typename C> static char ((&f(...)))[2];

    //Make sure the member name is consistently spelled the same.
    static_assert(
        (sizeof(f<AmbiguitySeed>(0)) == 1)
        , "Member name specified in AmbiguitySeed is different from member name specified in Alias, or wrong Alias/AmbiguitySeed has been specified."
    );

    static bool const value = sizeof(f<Alias>(0)) == 2;
};

奇怪的是，竟然没有人建议我在这个网站上看到的下面这个漂亮的把戏:

template <class T>
struct has_foo
{
    struct S { void foo(...); };
    struct derived : S, T {};

    template <typename V, V> struct W {};

    template <typename X>
    char (&test(W<void (X::*)(), &X::foo> *))[1];

    template <typename>
    char (&test(...))[2];

    static const bool value = sizeof(test<derived>(0)) == 1;
};

你必须确保T是一个类。查找foo时的模糊性似乎是替换失败。我让它在gcc上工作，但不确定它是否是标准的。

是的，使用SFINAE您可以检查给定的类是否提供了特定的方法。下面是工作代码:

#include <iostream>

struct Hello
{
    int helloworld() { return 0; }
};

struct Generic {};    

// SFINAE test
template <typename T>
class has_helloworld
{
    typedef char one;
    struct two { char x[2]; };

    template <typename C> static one test( decltype(&C::helloworld) ) ;
    template <typename C> static two test(...);    

public:
    enum { value = sizeof(test<T>(0)) == sizeof(char) };
};
    
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    std::cout << has_helloworld<Hello>::value << std::endl;
    std::cout << has_helloworld<Generic>::value << std::endl;
    return 0;
}
