+[section Overview]
+[/===============]
+
+The motivation for `declval` was introduced in [@http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2009/n2958.html#Value N2958: 
+Moving Swap Forward]. Here follows a rewording of this chapter.
+
+With the provision of decltype, late-specified return types, and default template-arguments for function templates a 
+new generation of SFINAE patterns will emerge to at least partially compensate the lack of concepts on the C++0x timescale. 
+Using this technique, it is sometimes necessary to obtain an object of a known type in a non-using context, e.g. given the declaration 
+
+  template<class T>
+  T&& declval(); // not used
+  
+as part of the function template declaration 
+
+  template<class To, class From>
+  decltype(static_cast<To>(declval<From>())) convert(From&&);
+  
+or as part of a class template definition 
+
+  template<class> class result_of;
+
+  template<class Fn, class... ArgTypes>
+  struct result_of<Fn(ArgTypes...)> 
+  {
+    typedef decltype(declval<Fn>()(declval<ArgTypes>()...)) type;
+  };
+  
+The role of the function template declval() is a transformation of a type T into a value without using or evaluating this function. 
+The name is supposed to direct the reader's attention to the fact that the expression `declval<T>()` is an lvalue if and only if 
+T is an lvalue-reference, otherwise an rvalue. To extend the domain of this function we can do a bit better by changing its declaration to 
+
+  template<class T>
+  typename std::add_rvalue_reference<T>::type declval(); // not used
+  
+which ensures that we can also use cv void as template parameter. The careful reader might have noticed that `declval()` 
+already exists under the name create() as part of the definition of the semantics of the type trait is_convertible in the C==0x standard. 
+
+The provision of a new library component that allows the production of values in unevaluated expressions is considered as 
+important to realize constrained templates in C++0x where concepts are not available. 
+This extremely light-weight function is expected to be part of the daily tool-box of the C++0x programmer.
