// C++03 implementation of //
// 20.2.4 Function template declval [declval] //
// Written by Vicente J. Botet Escriba //
// //
// 1 The library provides the function template declval to simplify the
// definition of expressions which occur as unevaluated operands.
// 2 Remarks: If this function is used, the program is ill-formed.
// 3 Remarks: The template parameter T of declval may be an incomplete type.
// [ Example:
//
// template <class To, class From>
// decltype(static_cast<To>(declval<From>())) convert(From&&);
//
// declares a function template convert which only participates in overloading
// if the type From can be explicitly converted to type To. For another example
// see class template common_type (20.9.7.6). -end example ]
