这是可以尝试的。简单。虽然没有使用字符串类的细微差别。

#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <assert.h>

#include <string>
#include <exception>
using namespace std;

//---------------------------------------------------------------------

class StringFormatter
{
public:
    static string format(const char *format, ...);
};

string StringFormatter::format(const char *format, ...)
{
    va_list  argptr;

    va_start(argptr, format);

        char   *ptr;
        size_t  size;
        FILE   *fp_mem = open_memstream(&ptr, &size);
        assert(fp_mem);

        vfprintf (fp_mem, format, argptr);
        fclose (fp_mem);

    va_end(argptr);

    string ret = ptr;
    free(ptr);

    return ret;
}

//---------------------------------------------------------------------

int main(void)
{
    string temp = StringFormatter::format("my age is %d", 100);
    printf("%s\n", temp.c_str());

    return 0;
}

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。

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。

c++ 20 std::格式

它来了!该特性描述在:http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2019/p0645r9.html，并使用类似python的.format()语法。

我希望它的用法是这样的:

#include <format>
#include <string>

int main() {
    std::string message = std::format("The answer is {}.", 42);
}

g++-9 -std=c++2a的GCC 9.1.0仍然不支持它。

现有的fmt库在获得官方支持之前实现了它:https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt，如前所述:std::string格式化，如sprintf:

sudo apt install libfmt-dev

修改源代码以替换:

用<fmt/core.h> .h格式化> Std::format转换为fmt::format

main.cpp

#include <string>
#include <iostream>

#include <fmt/core.h>

int main() {
    std::string message = fmt::format("The answer is {}.", 42);
    std::cout << message << std::endl;
}

编译并运行:

g++ -std=c++11 -o main.out main.cpp -lfmt
./main.out

输出:

The answer is 42.

API将添加一个新的std::format头文件:

建议的格式化API定义在新的header <format>中，应该不会对现有代码产生影响。

这是可以尝试的。简单。虽然没有使用字符串类的细微差别。

#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <assert.h>

#include <string>
#include <exception>
using namespace std;

//---------------------------------------------------------------------

class StringFormatter
{
public:
    static string format(const char *format, ...);
};

string StringFormatter::format(const char *format, ...)
{
    va_list  argptr;

    va_start(argptr, format);

        char   *ptr;
        size_t  size;
        FILE   *fp_mem = open_memstream(&ptr, &size);
        assert(fp_mem);

        vfprintf (fp_mem, format, argptr);
        fclose (fp_mem);

    va_end(argptr);

    string ret = ptr;
    free(ptr);

    return ret;
}

//---------------------------------------------------------------------

int main(void)
{
    string temp = StringFormatter::format("my age is %d", 100);
    printf("%s\n", temp.c_str());

    return 0;
}

从Dacav和pixelpoint的答案中获得灵感。我玩了一下，得到了这个:

#include <cstdarg>
#include <cstdio>
#include <string>

std::string format(const char* fmt, ...)
{
    va_list vl;

    va_start(vl, fmt);
    int size = vsnprintf(0, 0, fmt, vl) + sizeof('\0');
    va_end(vl);

    char buffer[size];

    va_start(vl, fmt);
    size = vsnprintf(buffer, size, fmt, vl);
    va_end(vl);

    return std::string(buffer, size);
}

通过合理的编程实践，我相信代码应该足够了，但是我仍然对更安全的替代方案持开放态度，这些替代方案仍然足够简单，不需要c++ 11。

---

下面是另一个版本，它使用初始缓冲区来防止在初始缓冲区已经足够多时再次调用vsnprintf()。

std::string format(const char* fmt, ...)
{

    va_list vl;
    int size;

    enum { INITIAL_BUFFER_SIZE = 512 };

    {
        char buffer[INITIAL_BUFFER_SIZE];

        va_start(vl, fmt);
        size = vsnprintf(buffer, INITIAL_BUFFER_SIZE, fmt, vl);
        va_end(vl);

        if (size < INITIAL_BUFFER_SIZE)
            return std::string(buffer, size);
    }

    size += sizeof('\0');

    char buffer[size];

    va_start(vl, fmt);
    size = vsnprintf(buffer, size, fmt, vl);
    va_end(vl);

    return std::string(buffer, size);
}

(事实证明，这个版本与Piti Ongmongkolkul的答案相似，只是它没有使用new和delete[]，并且在创建std::string时指定了大小。

The idea here of not using new and delete[] is to imply usage of the stack over the heap since it doesn't need to call allocation and deallocation functions, however if not properly used, it could be dangerous to buffer overflows in some (perhaps old, or perhaps just vulnerable) systems. If this is a concern, I highly suggest using new and delete[] instead. Note that the only concern here is about the allocations as vsnprintf() is already called with limits, so specifying a limit based on the size allocated on the second buffer would also prevent those.)
