        <span class="bold"><strong>Inherits:</strong></span> If T is a (possibly cv-qualified)
        type with a trivial assignment-operator then inherits from <a class="link" href="integral_constant.html" title="integral_constant">true_type</a>,
        otherwise inherits from <a class="link" href="integral_constant.html" title="integral_constant">false_type</a>.
      </p>
<p>
        If a type has a trivial assignment-operator then the operator has the same
        effect as copying the bits of one object to the other: calls to the operator
        can be safely replaced with a call to <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">memcpy</span></code>.

<p>
        <span class="bold"><strong>Compiler Compatibility:</strong></span> If the compiler
        does not support partial-specialization of class templates, then this template
        can not be used with function types.
      </p>
<p>
        Without some (as yet unspecified) help from the compiler, has_trivial_assign
        will never report that a user-defined class or struct has a trivial constructor;
        this is always safe, if possibly sub-optimal. Currently (May 2011) compilers
        more recent than Visual C++ 8, GCC-4.3, Greenhills 6.0, Intel-11.0, and Codegear
        have the necessary compiler <a class="link" href="../intrinsics.html" title="Support for Compiler Intrinsics">intrinsics</a>
        to ensure that this trait "just works". You may also test to see
        if the necessary <a class="link" href="../intrinsics.html" title="Support for Compiler Intrinsics">intrinsics</a>
        are available by checking to see if the macro <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_HAS_TRIVIAL_ASSIGN</span></code>
        is defined.
