Set priority to 3 after reflector discussions.
[concept.convertible] p2:
Types From and To model convertible_to<From, To> only if:
(2.1) — To is not an object or reference-to-object type, or static_cast<To>(f()) is equal to test(f).
[…]
This requires the implicit and explicit conversions to produce equal results.
However, it seems that when To is a reference-to-function type, this restriction does not apply. This makes it possible to create a class that models convertible_to, but produces different results depending on the kind of conversion:
#include <concepts>
int foo() { return 0; }
int bar() { return 42; }
using FT = int();
struct A
{
operator FT&() const { return foo; }
explicit operator FT&() { return bar; }
};
static_assert(std::convertible_to<A, FT&>);
A a;
FT& x = a; // x == foo
auto y = static_cast<FT&>(a); // y == bar
