+/** @file has_comparison.H
+ *
+ * Defines the guts of a has_foo<T> template where 'foo' is a binary
+ * comparison operator on a type T. This template can be used for
+ * template meta-programming purposes.
+ *
+ * The macros UTIL_COMPARISON_OPERATOR and UTIL_COMPARISON_OPERATOR_NAME
+ * can be defined to create a template. For instance (<, lessthan) will
+ * create a template has_lessthan that allows determination to be made on
+ * if T has a valid < operator.
+ *
+ * This file purposefully omits an include-guard to allow multiple templates
+ * to be defined for all the various comparison operators.
+ *
+ * Notice that a heavy dose of SFINAE techniques follow.
