But if you remove all tests with is_assignable2, still remains problem with int: ... struct QQ { int v; }; ... static_assert( is_assignable<int,int>::value, "not assignable" ); // <---- fail! static_assert( is_assignable<int&,int&&>::value, "not assignable" ); // pass ... static_assert( is_assignable<WW,WW>::value, "not assignable" ); // pass ... static_assert( is_assignable<QQ,QQ>::value, "not assignable" ); // <---- pass! static_assert( is_assignable<QQ&,QQ&&>::value, "not assignable" ); // pass
