我必须用sprintf格式化std::string,并将其发送到文件流。我该怎么做呢?


当前回答

这里是内存使用(和执行速度)方面的最佳解决方案,不依赖于RVO,如果字符串大小大于零,也可以执行追加,还会自动调整std::string的大小。

宏解决方案IMO更好,现代编译器将警告如果格式字符串不匹配的类型。该函数版本不会出现此警告,因为编译器无法看到snprintf。宏版本也更短,它也需要一个更少的包含。

宏观的解决方案:

#include <string.h>
#include <string>

// function that will sprintf to a C++ string starting from std::string::size()
// so if you want to completely overwrite a string or start at a specific point
// use std::string::clear() or std::string::resize(). str is a std::string.
#define STRING_PRINTF(str, ...)                                   \
  do {                                                            \
    const int size = snprintf(NULL, 0, __VA_ARGS__);              \
    const size_t start_of_string = str.size();                    \
    str.resize(start_of_string + size);                           \
    snprintf(&str[start_of_string], str.size() + 1, __VA_ARGS__); \
  } while (0)

函数的解决方案:

#include <stdarg.h>  // For va_start, etc.
#include <string.h>
#include <string>

// function that will sprintf to a C++ string starting from std::string::size()
// so if you want to completely overwrite a string or start at a specific point
// use std::string::clear() or std::string::resize()
int string_printf(std::string& str, const char* const fmt, ...) {
  c_va_list c_args;

  va_start(c_args.args, fmt);

  c_va_list tmpa;
  va_copy(tmpa.args, c_args.args);

  // Get addtional size required
  int size = vsnprintf(NULL, 0, fmt, tmpa.args);
  if (size < 0) {
    return -1;
  }

  const size_t start_of_string = str.size();
  str.resize(start_of_string + size);

  // plus 1 so the null terminator gets included
  size = vsnprintf(&str[start_of_string], str.size() + 1, fmt, c_args.args);
  return size;
}

更优解:

#define STRING_PRINTF(str, ...)                                     \
  do {                                                              \
    const size_t write_point = str.size();                          \
    str.resize(write_point + 127);                                  \
    const int size = snprintf(&str[write_point], 128, __VA_ARGS__); \
    str.resize(write_point + size);                                 \
    if (size < 128) {                                               \
      break;                                                        \
    }                                                               \
                                                                    \
    snprintf(&str[write_point], size + 1, __VA_ARGS__);             \
  } while (0)

这是一个更优的解决方案,假设sprintf小于128字节,如果是,格式字符串只解析一次而不是两次。

其他回答

我用vsnprintf写了我自己的,所以它返回字符串,而不是必须创建我自己的缓冲区。

#include <string>
#include <cstdarg>

//missing string printf
//this is safe and convenient but not exactly efficient
inline std::string format(const char* fmt, ...){
    int size = 512;
    char* buffer = 0;
    buffer = new char[size];
    va_list vl;
    va_start(vl, fmt);
    int nsize = vsnprintf(buffer, size, fmt, vl);
    if(size<=nsize){ //fail delete buffer and try again
        delete[] buffer;
        buffer = 0;
        buffer = new char[nsize+1]; //+1 for /0
        nsize = vsnprintf(buffer, size, fmt, vl);
    }
    std::string ret(buffer);
    va_end(vl);
    delete[] buffer;
    return ret;
}

所以你可以用它

std::string mystr = format("%s %d %10.5f", "omg", 1, 10.5);

更新1:增加了fmt::格式测试

我对这里介绍的方法进行了自己的研究,得到了与这里提到的完全相反的结果。

我用了4个函数/ 4个方法:

可变变量函数+ vsnprintf + std::unique_ptr 可变变量函数+ vsnprintf + std::string 可变变量模板函数+ std::ostringstream + std::tuple +实用程序::for_each 来自Fmt库的Fmt::format函数

对于googletest使用的测试后端。

#include <string>
#include <cstdarg>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <memory>
#include <algorithm>

#include <fmt/format.h>

inline std::string string_format(size_t string_reserve, const std::string fmt_str, ...)
{
    size_t str_len = (std::max)(fmt_str.size(), string_reserve);

    // plain buffer is a bit faster here than std::string::reserve
    std::unique_ptr<char[]> formatted;

    va_list ap;
    va_start(ap, fmt_str);

    while (true) {
        formatted.reset(new char[str_len]);

        const int final_n = vsnprintf(&formatted[0], str_len, fmt_str.c_str(), ap);

        if (final_n < 0 || final_n >= int(str_len))
            str_len += (std::abs)(final_n - int(str_len) + 1);
        else
            break;
    }

    va_end(ap);

    return std::string(formatted.get());
}

inline std::string string_format2(size_t string_reserve, const std::string fmt_str, ...)
{
    size_t str_len = (std::max)(fmt_str.size(), string_reserve);
    std::string str;

    va_list ap;
    va_start(ap, fmt_str);

    while (true) {
        str.resize(str_len);

        const int final_n = vsnprintf(const_cast<char *>(str.data()), str_len, fmt_str.c_str(), ap);

        if (final_n < 0 || final_n >= int(str_len))
            str_len += (std::abs)(final_n - int(str_len) + 1);
        else {
            str.resize(final_n); // do not forget to shrink the size!
            break;
        }
    }

    va_end(ap);

    return str;
}

template <typename... Args>
inline std::string string_format3(size_t string_reserve, Args... args)
{
    std::ostringstream ss;
    if (string_reserve) {
        ss.rdbuf()->str().reserve(string_reserve);
    }
    std::tuple<Args...> t{ args... };
    utility::for_each(t, [&ss](auto & v)
    {
        ss << v;
    });
    return ss.str();
}

for_each实现从这里开始:遍历tuple

#include <type_traits>
#include <tuple>

namespace utility {

    template <std::size_t I = 0, typename FuncT, typename... Tp>
    inline typename std::enable_if<I == sizeof...(Tp), void>::type
        for_each(std::tuple<Tp...> &, const FuncT &)
    {
    }

    template<std::size_t I = 0, typename FuncT, typename... Tp>
    inline typename std::enable_if<I < sizeof...(Tp), void>::type
        for_each(std::tuple<Tp...> & t, const FuncT & f)
    {
        f(std::get<I>(t));
        for_each<I + 1, FuncT, Tp...>(t, f);
    }

}

正如你所看到的,通过vsnprintf+std::string实现等于fmt::format,但比通过vsnprintf+std::unique_ptr更快,而vsnprintf+std::unique_ptr比通过std::ostringstream更快。

下面是@iFreilicht答案的稍微修改版本,更新到c++ 14(使用make_unique函数而不是原始声明),并增加了对std::string参数的支持(基于Kenny Kerr的文章)

#include <iostream>
#include <memory>
#include <string>
#include <cstdio>

template <typename T>
T process_arg(T value) noexcept
{
    return value;
}

template <typename T>
T const * process_arg(std::basic_string<T> const & value) noexcept
{
    return value.c_str();
}

template<typename ... Args>
std::string string_format(const std::string& format, Args const & ... args)
{
    const auto fmt = format.c_str();
    const size_t size = std::snprintf(nullptr, 0, fmt, process_arg(args) ...) + 1;
    auto buf = std::make_unique<char[]>(size);
    std::snprintf(buf.get(), size, fmt, process_arg(args) ...);
    auto res = std::string(buf.get(), buf.get() + size - 1);
    return res;
}

int main()
{
    int i = 3;
    float f = 5.f;
    char* s0 = "hello";
    std::string s1 = "world";
    std::cout << string_format("i=%d, f=%f, s=%s %s", i, f, s0, s1) << "\n";
}

输出:

i = 3, f = 5.000000, s = hello world

如果需要,可以随意将这个答案与原始答案合并。

这是谷歌的做法: facebook也以类似的方式:StringPrintf (Apache许可证) 两者都提供了一个方便的StringAppendF。

可以使用iomanip头文件格式化cout中的c++输出。 在使用类似的任何helper函数之前,请确保包含iomanip头文件 Setprecision, setfill等等。

下面是我过去用来在向量中打印平均等待时间的代码片段,这是我“累积”的。

#include<iomanip>
#include<iostream>
#include<vector>
#include<numeric>

...

cout<< "Average waiting times for tasks is " << setprecision(4) << accumulate(all(waitingTimes), 0)/double(waitingTimes.size()) ;
cout << " and " << Q.size() << " tasks remaining" << endl;
