imo, it is not possible; template name is not a type

in this particular case, to check if a is alias for A, you may use:
A.stringof == a.stringof

Hi,

Can anyone show me how to detect if a symbol is template?

The following is not working:

template A()
{
...
}

alias a A;

static if(is (a == template)) // error

Best regards
