        <pre>Hi there,

I was writing a pop_back metafunction and for demonstration purposes, I wanted
to trick the compiler into deducing the result. For the sake of simplicity, I
specialized the implementation to use only std::tuple<>s.
Here's how it goes:

#include <tuple>
#include <type_traits>
#include <utility>

template <typename, std::size_t>
struct wrapper;

template <typename, typename>
struct pop_back_impl;

template <typename... T1s, std::size_t... indices1>
class pop_back_impl<std::tuple<T1s...>, std::index_sequence<indices1...>> {
    template <typename>
    struct helper;

    template <std::size_t... indices2>
    struct helper<std::index_sequence<indices2...>> {
        template <typename... T2s>
        static std::tuple<T2s...> help(wrapper<T2s, indices2> const* const...,
void const* const);

        //template <typename T1, typename T2>
        //static std::tuple<T1, T2> help(wrapper<T1, 0> const* const,
wrapper<T2, 1> const* const, void const* const);
    };

    static_assert(sizeof...(T1s));

public:
    using type =
        decltype(
            helper<
                std::make_index_sequence<sizeof...(T1s) - 1>
            >::help(
                static_cast<wrapper<T1s, indices1> const*>(nullptr)...
            )
        )
    ;
};

template <typename Tuple>
using pop_back =
    typename pop_back_impl<
        Tuple,
        std::make_index_sequence<std::tuple_size_v<Tuple>>
    >::type
;

int main(int const, char const* const []) {
    static_assert(std::is_same_v<pop_back<std::tuple<int, char, double>>,
std::tuple<int, char>>);

    return 0;
}

I suspect that this should compile, since by the time help<>() gets called,
helper<> has already been instantiated, therefore help<>()'s parameter list
should already be bound by indices2. Also, the two help<>()s are equivalent in
this particular scenario, aren't they, or am I missing something? :)

Thanks,
Szilard</pre>
