+// absl::is_constant_evaluated()
+//
+// Detects whether the function call occurs within a constant-evaluated context.
+// Returns true if the evaluation of the call occurs within the evaluation of an
+// expression or conversion that is manifestly constant-evaluated; otherwise
+// returns false.
+//
+// This function is implemented in terms of `std::is_constant_evaluated` for
+// c++20 and up. For older c++ versions, the function is implemented in terms
+// of `__builtin_is_constant_evaluated` if available, otherwise the function
+// will fail to compile.
+//
+// Applications can inspect `ABSL_HAVE_CONSTANT_EVALUATED` at compile time
+// to check if this function is supported.
+//
+// Example:
+//
+// constexpr MyClass::MyClass(int param) {
+// #ifdef ABSL_HAVE_CONSTANT_EVALUATED
+//   if (!absl::is_constant_evaluated()) {
+//     ABSL_LOG(INFO) << "MyClass(" << param << ")";
+//   }
+// #endif  // ABSL_HAVE_CONSTANT_EVALUATED
+// }
