inline void format(string& a_string, const char* fmt, ...)
{
    va_list vl;
    va_start(vl, fmt);
    int size = _vscprintf( fmt, vl );
    a_string.resize( ++size );
    vsnprintf_s((char*)a_string.data(), size, _TRUNCATE, fmt, vl);
    va_end(vl);
}

如果缓冲区不够大，无法打印字符串，就会出现问题。在打印格式化消息之前，必须确定格式化字符串的长度。 我制作了自己的帮助器(在Windows和Linux GCC上测试)，您可以尝试使用它。

如果你只想要一个类似printf的语法(不需要自己调用printf)，可以看看Boost Format。

这是一个特定于Windows的解决方案，旨在避免Visual Studio中的编译器警告而不消除它们。所讨论的警告是针对使用std::string和va_start，这会错误地产生警告，以及针对使用已弃用的printf变量。

template<typename ... va>
std::string Format( const std::string& format, va ... args )
{
    std::string s;
    s.resize( _scprintf( format.c_str(), args ... ) + 1 );
    s.resize( _snprintf_s( s.data(), s.capacity(), _TRUNCATE, format.c_str(), args ... ) );
    return s;
}

template<typename ... va>
std::wstring Format( const std::wstring& format, va ... args )
{
    std::wstring s;
    s.resize( _scwprintf( format.c_str(), args ... ) + 1 );
    s.resize( _snwprintf_s( s.data(), s.capacity(), _TRUNCATE, format.c_str(), args ... ) );
    return s;
}

std::string s = Format( "%hs %d", "abc", 123 );
std::wstring ws = Format( L"%hs %d", "abc", 123 );

_return.desc = (boost::format("fail to detect. cv_result = %d") % st_result).str();

这是可以尝试的。简单。虽然没有使用字符串类的细微差别。
