Yeah, __is_same builtin beats custom unique-id comparisons, but it is available
only since gcc-10 so unavailable for me.
Recently I discovered this one (only works for unique types), and it is twice
as fast as __is_same in my scenarios (I guess mainly due to memoization):
template <typename T>
struct indexed_type
{
unsigned idx;
};
template <typename ...Ts>
struct indexed_type_list : indexed_type<Ts>...
{
constexpr indexed_type_list(unsigned i = 0)
: indexed_type<Ts>{i++}...
{}
};
template <typename ...Ts>
constexpr indexed_type_list<Ts...> indexed_type_list_instance;
template <typename T, typename ...Ts>
constexpr auto index_of =
static_cast<indexed_type<T>>(indexed_type_list_instance<Ts...>).idx;
Anyway, thanks for working on this topic!
