Is it possible to compare at compile time an element from a

This code fails:

Tuple is not a type tuple, it's a runtime tuple. TypeTuple is
located in std.typetuple. Use that and your code will work.
Thank you! That works indeed, but my problem is actually a bit
different.
I called that a "TypeTuple" because I read this line in the
documentation "If a tuple's elements are solely types, it is
called a TypeTuple" (http://dlang.org/tuple.html).
What I want to achieve is something like this:
template isNeededType(T) {
enum bool isNeededType = is(T[0] == int);
}
...
enum auto t = Tuple!(int, bool)(3, false);
alias T = typeof(t);
static assert(isNeededType!T);
I know that "is(typeof(t[0]) == int)" works for the above
example, but I need to get, if possible, the types of the
elements from the type of that tuple only.
template isNeededType(T)
{
enum isNeededType = is(T[0] == int);
}
enum t = tuple(3, false);
alias T = typeof(t.expand);
static assert(isNeededType!T);
sorry, that should be
template isNeededType(T ...)
