std::is_trivial

From Cppreference

If T is a trivial type (that is, a scalar type, a trivially copyable class with a trivial default constructor, or array of such type/class, possibly cv-qualified), provides the member constant value equal true. For any other type, value is false.

[edit] Notes

Only arrays of trivial type may be safely passed to std::qsort or other functions that accept arrays as arguments of type void*.

[edit] Equivalent definition

template< class T >
struct is_trivial : std::integral_constant< 
    bool,
    std::is_trivially_copyable<T>::value &&
    std::is_trivially_default_constructible<T>::value 
> {};

[edit] Example

#include <iostream>
#include <type_traits>
 
struct A {
    int m;
};
 
struct B {
    B() {}
};
 
int main() 
{
    std::cout << std::boolalpha;
    std::cout << std::is_trivial<A>::value << '\n';
    std::cout << std::is_trivial<B>::value << '\n';
}

Output:

true
false
