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

Boost::format()提供了你想要的功能:

Boost格式库简介如下:

format对象由format-string构造，然后通过反复调用运算符%来给出参数。 然后，每个参数都被转换为字符串，这些字符串又根据format-string组合成一个字符串。

#include <boost/format.hpp>

cout << boost::format("writing %1%,  x=%2% : %3%-th try") % "toto" % 40.23 % 50; 
// prints "writing toto,  x=40.230 : 50-th try"

到目前为止，所有的答案似乎都有一个或多个这样的问题:(1)它可能无法在vc++上工作(2)它需要额外的依赖，如boost或fmt(3)它太复杂的自定义实现，可能没有经过很好的测试。

下面的代码解决了上述所有问题。

#include <string>
#include <cstdarg>
#include <memory>

std::string stringf(const char* format, ...)
{
    va_list args;
    va_start(args, format);
    #ifndef _MSC_VER

        //GCC generates warning for valid use of snprintf to get
        //size of result string. We suppress warning with below macro.
        #ifdef __GNUC__
        #pragma GCC diagnostic push
        #pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wformat-nonliteral"
        #endif

        size_t size = std::snprintf(nullptr, 0, format, args) + 1; // Extra space for '\0'

        #ifdef __GNUC__
        # pragma GCC diagnostic pop
        #endif

        std::unique_ptr<char[]> buf(new char[ size ] ); 
        std::vsnprintf(buf.get(), size, format, args);
        return std::string(buf.get(), buf.get() + size - 1 ); // We don't want the '\0' inside
    #else
        int size = _vscprintf(format, args);
        std::string result(++size, 0);
        vsnprintf_s((char*)result.data(), size, _TRUNCATE, format, args);
        return result;
    #endif
    va_end(args);
}    

int main() {
    float f = 3.f;
    int i = 5;
    std::string s = "hello!";
    auto rs = stringf("i=%d, f=%f, s=%s", i, f, s.c_str());
    printf("%s", rs.c_str());
    return 0;
}

注:

Separate VC++ code branch is necessary because VC++ has decided to deprecate snprintf which will generate compiler warnings for other highly voted answers above. As I always run in "warnings as errors" mode, its no go for me. The function accepts char * instead of std::string. This because most of the time this function would be called with literal string which is indeed char *, not std::string. In case you do have std::string as format parameter, then just call .c_str(). Name of the function is stringf instead of things like string_format to keepup with printf, scanf etc. It doesn't address safety issue (i.e. bad parameters can potentially cause seg fault instead of exception). If you need this then you are better off with boost or fmt libraries. My preference here would be fmt because it is just one header and source file to drop in the project while having less weird formatting syntax than boost. However both are non-compatible with printf format strings so below is still useful in that case. The stringf code passes through GCC strict mode compilation. This requires extra #pragma macros to suppress false positives in GCC warnings.

以上代码已在，

GCC 4.9.2 11 / c++ / C + + 14 vc++编译器19.0 铿锵声3.7.0

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.)

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。

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 );
