Get number of arguments in a class member function

I am trying to get the number of parameters in a class member function.

template <typename R, typename ... Types> 
constexpr std::integral_constant<unsigned, sizeof ...(Types)> 
FuncArgCount(R(*f)(Types ...))
{
    return std::integral_constant<unsigned, sizeof ...(Types)>{};
}

class TestClass
{
public:
   TestClass(){}

   void On_Test(size_t v)
   {}

   void Call()
   {
       std::cout<< FuncArgCount(&TestClass::On_Test)::value;
   }
};

The above template implementation is taken from this thread and works great on non-member functions Get function parameters count

First, you have to overload for pointer to member. Pointers to member aren't actually pointers, they are separate type representing an offset within type.

template <typename R, typename T, typename ... Types> 
constexpr std::integral_constant<unsigned, sizeof ...(Types)> 
FuncArgCount(R(T::*)(Types ...))
{
    return std::integral_constant<unsigned, sizeof ...(Types)>{};
}

Second, the output line should be using . , not ::

 std::cout<< FuncArgCount(&TestClass::On_Test).value;

Or you can return that value directly from function, afaik it's a more logical approach.
