Description
It holds that type_eq(t1, t2, ns)
implies base_type_eq(t1, t2, ns)
, but the converse isn't necessarily true (if expansion of symbol types isn't consistent between t1
and t2
). This distinction, however, is subtle and only comes with a some (not measured) performance benefit. Maintaining two functions doing almost the same is painful and confusing.
In the medium term, neither type_eq
nor base_type_eq
should be necessary as tag types ought to enable use of operator==
as the one and only equality comparison over types.
