With Volker's enhanced comment, looks good to me.

Thanks,
Paul

    Hi Xin,
    
    in general your change looks looks good now.
    
    Can you please only change the comment on the equal() function to
    something more verbose like:
    
    // Select member function 'bool U::equals(const U&) const' if 'U' is of class
    // type. This works because of the "Substitution Failure Is Not An Error"
    // (SFINAE) rule. Notice that this version of 'equal' will also be chosen for
    // class types which don't define a corresponding 'equals()' method (and will
    // result in a compilation error for them). It is not easily possible to
    // specialize this 'equal()' function exclusively for class types which define
    // the correct 'equals()' function because that function can be in a base
    // class, a dependent base class or have a compatible but slightly different
    // signature.
    
    Pleas also adhere to the common comment style (i.e. leave one blank
    after '//' abd start the comment with an uppercase letter).
    
    I can sponsor the change once you get one more review.
    
    Best regards,
    Volker
