I don't see where it talks about how to compare dynamic arrays
with "is". It says:
The forms of the IsExpression are:
1. is ( Type )
...
2. is ( Type : TypeSpecialization )
...
3. is ( Type == TypeSpecialization )
...
4. is ( Type Identifier )
...
5. is ( Type Identifier : TypeSpecialization )
...
6. is ( Type Identifier == TypeSpecialization )
...
7. is ( Type : TypeSpecialization , TemplateParameterList )
is ( Type == TypeSpecialization , TemplateParameterList )
is ( Type Identifier : TypeSpecialization , TemplateParameterList
)
is ( Type Identifier == TypeSpecialization ,
TemplateParameterList )
...
This doesn't explain "a is b" where a and b are both dynamic
arrays.
