Is there way to perform "if (condition) typedef ..."

Question

I would like to perform a typedef, if and only if a compile-time condition is met. If the condition is not met, no typedef shall be performed at all.

Is that possible in C++11?

Example:

class A {
  std::conditional_typedef<true,int,myType1>; // Performs "typedef int myType1".
  std::conditional_typedef<false,int,myType2>; // Does nothing at all.
};

I am looking for this fictional std::conditional_typedef.

Another way can be passing from the specialization of a base class

// foo is a light struct (only a typedef or not at all) that can be
// developed in two versions

template <bool>
struct foo;

template <>
struct foo<true>
 { typedef int myType1; }; // or using myType1 = int;

template <>
struct foo<false>
 { };

template <bool B>
struct bar : public foo<B> // B can be a type_traits value derived
                           // from template arguments for bar
 {
   // potential complex struct or class, developed only one time 
 };


int main()
 {
   bar<true>::myType1 mt1 { 1 };
   // bar<false>::myType1 mt2 { 1 }; error: ‘myType1’ is not a member of ‘bar<false>’
 }
