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

我对这个非常流行的问题的看法。

引用printf类函数的manpage:

Upon successful return, these functions return the number of characters printed (excluding the null byte used to end output to strings). The functions snprintf() and vsnprintf() do not write more than size bytes (including the terminating null byte ('\0')). If the output was truncated due to this limit then the return value is the number of characters (excluding the terminating null byte) which would have been written to the final string if enough space had been available. Thus, a return value of size or more means that the output was truncated.

换句话说,一个正常的c++ 11实现应该是这样的:

#include <string>
#include <cstdio>

template <typename... Ts>
std::string fmt (const std::string &fmt, Ts... vs)
{
    char b;
    size_t required = std::snprintf(&b, 0, fmt.c_str(), vs...) + 1;
        // See comments: the +1 is necessary, while the first parameter
        //               can also be set to nullptr

    char bytes[required];
    std::snprintf(bytes, required, fmt.c_str(), vs...);

    return std::string(bytes);
}

它工作得很好:)

只有c++ 11支持可变参数模板。pixelpoint的答案显示了使用较旧的编程风格的类似技术。

奇怪的是,c++没有这样一个开箱即用的东西。他们最近添加了to_string(),在我看来这是向前迈出的一大步。我想知道他们是否最终会给std::string添加一个.format操作符…

Edit

正如alexk7指出的那样,std::snprintf的返回值需要A +1,因为我们需要为\0字节留出空间。直观地说,在大多数体系结构上,缺少+1将导致所需的整数部分被0覆盖。这将在std::snprintf的required作为实际参数计算之后发生,因此效果不应该可见。

然而,这个问题可以改变,例如编译器优化:如果编译器决定为所需的变量使用寄存器怎么办?这类错误有时会导致安全问题。

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);
template<typename... Args>
std::string string_format(const char* fmt, Args... args)
{
    size_t size = snprintf(nullptr, 0, fmt, args...);
    std::string buf;
    buf.reserve(size + 1);
    buf.resize(size);
    snprintf(&buf[0], size + 1, fmt, args...);
    return buf;
}

使用C99 snprintf和c++ 11

更新了一些答案,不同的是-函数将正确接受std::string为%s

namespace format_helper
{

    template <class Src>
    inline Src cast(Src v)
    {
        return v;
    }

    inline const char *cast(const std::string& v)
    {
        return v.c_str();
    }
};

template <typename... Ts>
inline std::string stringfmt (const std::string &fmt, Ts&&... vs)
{
    using namespace format_helper;
    char b;
    size_t required = std::snprintf(&b, 0, fmt.c_str(), cast(std::forward<Ts>(vs))...);//not counting the terminating null character.
    std::string result;
    //because we use string as container, it adds extra 0 automatically
    result.resize(required , 0);
    //and snprintf will use n-1 bytes supplied
    std::snprintf(const_cast<char*>(result.data()), required + 1, fmt.c_str(), cast(std::forward<Ts>(vs))...);

    return result;
}

我知道这个问题已经被回答过很多次了,但下面这个更简洁:

std::string format(const std::string fmt_str, ...)
{
    va_list ap;
    char *fp = NULL;
    va_start(ap, fmt_str);
    vasprintf(&fp, fmt_str.c_str(), ap);
    va_end(ap);
    std::unique_ptr<char[]> formatted(fp);
    return std::string(formatted.get());
}

例子:

#include <iostream>
#include <random>

int main()
{
    std::random_device r;
    std::cout << format("Hello %d!\n", r());
}

非常简单的解决方案。

std::string strBuf;
strBuf.resize(256);
int iCharsPrinted = sprintf_s((char *)strPath.c_str(), strPath.size(), ...);
strBuf.resize(iCharsPrinted);
