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());
}

其他回答

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);
}

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。

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。

这是我用来在我的程序中这样做的代码…这没什么特别的,但很管用……注意,您必须根据需要调整您的尺寸。我的MAX_BUFFER是1024。

std::string Format ( const char *fmt, ... )
{
    char textString[MAX_BUFFER*5] = {'\0'};

    // -- Empty the buffer properly to ensure no leaks.
    memset(textString, '\0', sizeof(textString));

    va_list args;
    va_start ( args, fmt );
    vsnprintf ( textString, MAX_BUFFER*5, fmt, args );
    va_end ( args );
    std::string retStr = textString;
    return retStr;
}

我喜欢的一个解决方案是,在使缓冲区足够大之后,用sprintf直接在std::string缓冲区中执行此操作:

#include <string>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

string l_output;
l_output.resize(100);

for (int i = 0; i < 1000; ++i)
{       
    memset (&l_output[0], 0, 100);
    sprintf (&l_output[0], "\r%i\0", i);

    cout << l_output;
    cout.flush();
}

因此,创建std::string,调整它的大小,直接访问它的缓冲区…
