Synopsis

Defined in header<type_traits>

    template <class T>
    (1)(since C++ 11)

        struct is_move_assignable;

template <class T>
(2)(since C++ 11)

    struct is_trivially_move_assignable;

template <class T>
(3)(since C++ 11)

    struct is_nothrow_move_assignable;

1) If T is not a referenceable type (i.e., possibly cv-qualified void or a function type with a cv-qualifier-seq or a ref-qualifier), provides a member constant value equal to false. Otherwise, provides a member constant value equal to std::is_assignable<T&, T&&>::value.
2) Same as 1), but uses std::is_trivially_assignable<T&, T&&>
3) Same as 1), but uses std::is_nothrow_assignable<T&, T&&>
T shall be a complete type, (possibly cv-qualified) void, or an array of unknown bound. Otherwise, the behavior is undefined.
If an instantiation of a template above depends, directly or indirectly, on an incomplete type, and that instantiation could yield a different result if that type were hypothetically completed, the behavior is undefined.

Notes

The trait std::is_move_assignable is less strict than MoveAssignable because it does not check the type of the result of the assignment (which, for a MoveAssignable type, must be T&), nor the semantic requirement that the target’s value after the assignment is equivalent to the source’s value before the assignment.
The type does not have to implement a move_assignment_operator in order to satisfy this trait; see MoveAssignable for details.

Example

// Run this code

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

#include <type_traits>

struct Foo {
    int n;
};

struct NoMove {
    // prevents implicit declaration of default move assignment operator
    // however, the class is still move-assignable because its
    // copy assignment operator can bind to an rvalue argument
    NoMove &operator=(const NoMove &)
    {
        return *this;
    }
};

int main()
{
    std::cout << std::boolalpha
              << "std::string is nothrow move-assignable? "
              << std::is_nothrow_move_assignable<std::string>::value << '\n'
              << "int[2] is move-assignable? "
              << std::is_move_assignable<int[2]>::value << '\n'
              << "Foo is trivally move-assignable? "
              << std::is_trivially_move_assignable<Foo>::value << '\n';
    std::cout << std::boolalpha
              << "NoMove is move-assignable? "
              << std::is_move_assignable<NoMove>::value << '\n'
              << "NoMove is nothrow move-assignable? "
              << std::is_nothrow_move_assignable<NoMove>::value << '\n';
}

Output:

  std::string is nothrow move-assignable? true
  int[2] is move-assignable? false
  Foo is trivially move-assignable? true
  NoMove is move-assignable? true
  NoMove is nothrow move-assignable? false
