虽然这个问题是关于整数的,但值得注意的是,如果需要常量结构或字符串,#define和enum是无用的。它们通常都作为指针传递给函数。(对于字符串,它是必需的;有了结构,效率就高多了。)
As for integers, if you're in an embedded environment with very limited memory, you might need to worry about where the constant is stored and how accesses to it are compiled. The compiler might add two consts at run time, but add two #defines at compile time. A #define constant may be converted into one or more MOV [immediate] instructions, which means the constant is effectively stored in program memory. A const constant will be stored in the .const section in data memory. In systems with a Harvard architecture, there could be differences in performance and memory usage, although they'd likely be small. They might matter for hard-core optimization of inner loops.

在c#中定义更为流行。你可以使用这些值来声明数组大小,例如:
#define MAXLEN 5
void foo(void) {
int bar[MAXLEN];
}
据我所知,ANSI C不允许你在这种情况下使用静态常量。在c++中,在这些情况下应该避免使用宏。你可以写
const int maxlen = 5;
void foo() {
int bar[maxlen];
}
甚至不用static,因为内部链接已经由const隐含[仅在c++中]。
我们查看了MBF16X上生成的汇编代码…这两种变体产生相同的算术运算代码(例如ADD Immediate)。
所以const int是类型检查的首选,而#define是旧风格。也许它是特定于编译器的。因此,请检查生成的汇编程序代码。
在C语言中?在C语言中,正确的答案是:使用#define(或者,如果合适,使用enum)
虽然具有const对象的作用域和类型属性是有益的,但实际上C中的const对象(与c++相反)并不是真正的常量,因此在大多数实际情况下通常是无用的。
所以,在C语言中,选择应该取决于你计划如何使用常数。例如,你不能使用const int对象作为case标签(而宏可以)。你不能使用const int对象作为位域宽度(而宏可以)。在C89/90中,你不能使用const对象来指定数组大小(而宏可以)。即使在C99中,当你需要一个非vla数组时,你也不能使用const对象来指定数组大小。
如果这对你很重要,那么它将决定你的选择。大多数时候,你别无选择,只能在C中使用#define。不要忘记另一个选择,它在C - enum中产生真正的常量。
在c++中,const对象是真正的常量,所以在c++中,最好使用const变体(但在c++中不需要显式的静态)。
静态const和#define之间的区别在于前者使用内存,而后者不使用内存进行存储。其次,您不能传递#define对象的地址,而可以传递静态const对象的地址。实际上,这取决于我们所处的环境,我们需要在这两者中选择一个。两者在不同的情况下都处于最佳状态。请不要认为一个比另一个好。: -)
如果是这样的话,丹尼斯·里奇会把最好的留下来……哈哈哈……: -)
这取决于你需要这个值做什么。你(和目前所有人一样)忽略了第三种选择:
Static const int var = 5; #定义var 5 枚举{var = 5};
忽略名字的选择问题,那么:
If you need to pass a pointer around, you must use (1). Since (2) is apparently an option, you don't need to pass pointers around. Both (1) and (3) have a symbol in the debugger's symbol table - that makes debugging easier. It is more likely that (2) will not have a symbol, leaving you wondering what it is. (1) cannot be used as a dimension for arrays at global scope; both (2) and (3) can. (1) cannot be used as a dimension for static arrays at function scope; both (2) and (3) can. Under C99, all of these can be used for local arrays. Technically, using (1) would imply the use of a VLA (variable-length array), though the dimension referenced by 'var' would of course be fixed at size 5. (1) cannot be used in places like switch statements; both (2) and (3) can. (1) cannot be used to initialize static variables; both (2) and (3) can. (2) can change code that you didn't want changed because it is used by the preprocessor; both (1) and (3) will not have unexpected side-effects like that. You can detect whether (2) has been set in the preprocessor; neither (1) nor (3) allows that.
因此,在大多数情况下,优先选择“enum”而不是其他选项。否则,第一个和最后一个要点很可能是控制因素——如果你需要同时满足这两个点,你必须更努力地思考。
如果你问的是c++,那么你每次都应该使用option (1) - static const。
