Line 63:

When <code>T</code> has the nested type <code>foobar</code> defined, the instantiation of the first <code>test</code> works and 0 is successfully passed as the null pointer constant. (And the resulting type of the expression is <code>yes</code>.) If it does not work, the only available function is the second <code>test</code>, and the resulting type of the expression is <code>no</code>. (An ellipsis is used not only because it will accept any argument, but also because its conversion rank is lowest, so a call to the first function will be preferred if it is possible; this removes ambiguity.)

DevelopersThe developers of [[Boost C++ Libraries|Boost]] used SFINAE in boost::enable_if<ref name="enable_if">[http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/utility/enable_if.html Boost Enable If]</ref> and in other ways.
