16 // A bag of Traits (structs / enums / etc...) can be an elegant alternative to
17 // the builder pattern and multiple default arguments for configuring things.
18 // Traits are terser than the builder pattern and can be evaluated at compile
19 // time, however they require the use of variadic templates which complicates
20 // matters. This file contains helpers that make Traits easier to use.
21 //
22 // WARNING: Trait bags are currently too heavy for non-constexpr usage in prod
23 // code due to template bloat, although adding NOINLINE to template constructors
24 // configured via trait bags can help.

27 // struct EnableFeatureX {};
28 // struct UnusedTrait {};

30 //
31 // struct ValidTraits {
32 // ValidTraits(EnableFeatureX);
