C++17 fold expression syntax?

Question

I am trying to use compact fold expression without success.

For instance here is a working C++17 code

template <bool... B>
struct Fold_And : std::integral_constant<bool, (B && ...)>
{
};

template <bool... B>
constexpr auto Fold_And_v = Fold_And<B...>::value;


template <typename V, typename... Vs>
std::enable_if_t<
    Fold_And_v<std::is_floating_point_v<V>,
               std::is_floating_point_v<Vs>...> >
foo(const V& v, const Vs&...)
{
}

I want to translate it into a more compact form (not using the intermediate Fold_And)

template <typename V, typename... Vs>
std::enable_if_t<std::is_floating_point_v<V> && ... &&
                 std::is_floating_point_v<Vs> >
foo_compact(const V& v, const Vs&...)
{
}

However, this is apparently illegal C++ as both g++ and clang++ compilers fail to compile it.

My question:

• is it only a syntax problem in foo_compact()? (what is the right one?)

Or

• fold expression can not be used directy with complex subexpressions and we can not do better than using the 2 steps approach (foo() code using the Fold_And struct)?

Answer 1

Fold expression requires parenthesis, so:

(std::is_floating_point_v<V> && ... && std::is_floating_point_v<Vs>)

Answer 2

You almost got it! Fold expressions have to be surrounded by parentheses:

template <typename V, typename... Vs>
std::enable_if_t<(std::is_floating_point_v<V> && ... &&
                 std::is_floating_point_v<Vs>)>
foo_compact(const V& v, const Vs&...)
{
}

Notice the parentheses after < and before the last >.
