在c#中,通过[flags]属性将枚举视为标志,但在c++中实现这一点的最佳方法是什么?

例如,我想写:

enum AnimalFlags
{
    HasClaws = 1,
    CanFly =2,
    EatsFish = 4,
    Endangered = 8
};

seahawk.flags = CanFly | EatsFish | Endangered;

然而,我得到编译器错误关于int/enum转换。除了生硬的角色转换,还有更好的表达方式吗?最好,我不想依赖第三方库(如boost或Qt)的构造。

编辑:如答案中所示,我可以通过声明seahawk来避免编译器错误。标记为int。但是,我希望有某种机制来执行类型安全,这样就不能编写seahawk了。flags = HasMaximizeButton。

下面是一个c++ 11的惰性解决方案,它不改变枚举的默认行为。它也适用于enum struct和enum class,并且是constexpr。

#include <type_traits>

template<class T = void> struct enum_traits {};

template<> struct enum_traits<void> {
    struct _allow_bitops {
        static constexpr bool allow_bitops = true;
    };
    using allow_bitops = _allow_bitops;

    template<class T, class R = T>
    using t = typename std::enable_if<std::is_enum<T>::value and
        enum_traits<T>::allow_bitops, R>::type;

    template<class T>
    using u = typename std::underlying_type<T>::type;
};

template<class T>
constexpr enum_traits<>::t<T> operator~(T a) {
    return static_cast<T>(~static_cast<enum_traits<>::u<T>>(a));
}
template<class T>
constexpr enum_traits<>::t<T> operator|(T a, T b) {
    return static_cast<T>(
        static_cast<enum_traits<>::u<T>>(a) |
        static_cast<enum_traits<>::u<T>>(b));
}
template<class T>
constexpr enum_traits<>::t<T> operator&(T a, T b) {
    return static_cast<T>(
        static_cast<enum_traits<>::u<T>>(a) &
        static_cast<enum_traits<>::u<T>>(b));
}
template<class T>
constexpr enum_traits<>::t<T> operator^(T a, T b) {
    return static_cast<T>(
        static_cast<enum_traits<>::u<T>>(a) ^
        static_cast<enum_traits<>::u<T>>(b));
}
template<class T>
constexpr enum_traits<>::t<T, T&> operator|=(T& a, T b) {
    a = a | b;
    return a;
}
template<class T>
constexpr enum_traits<>::t<T, T&> operator&=(T& a, T b) {
    a = a & b;
    return a;
}
template<class T>
constexpr enum_traits<>::t<T, T&> operator^=(T& a, T b) {
    a = a ^ b;
    return a;
}

为枚举启用位操作符:

enum class my_enum {
    Flag1 = 1 << 0,
    Flag2 = 1 << 1,
    Flag3 = 1 << 2,
    // ...
};

// The magic happens here
template<> struct enum_traits<my_enum> :
    enum_traits<>::allow_bitops {};

constexpr my_enum foo = my_enum::Flag1 | my_enum::Flag2 | my_enum::Flag3;

其他回答

在我看来,到目前为止没有一个答案是理想的。理想的解决方案是:

支持==,!=,=,&,&=,|,|=和~运算符 意义(即a和b) 类型安全,即不允许分配非枚举值,如字面量或整数类型(枚举值的按位组合除外),或允许将枚举变量分配给整数类型 允许使用if (a & b)… 不需要邪恶的宏,实现特定的功能或其他hack

到目前为止,大多数解都停留在第2点或第3点上。WebDancer在我看来是封闭的,但在第3点失败了,需要在每个枚举中重复。

我提出的解决方案是WebDancer的一个广义版本,也解决了第3点:

#include <cstdint>
#include <type_traits>

template<typename T, typename = typename std::enable_if<std::is_enum<T>::value, T>::type>
class auto_bool
{
    T val_;
public:
    constexpr auto_bool(T val) : val_(val) {}
    constexpr operator T() const { return val_; }
    constexpr explicit operator bool() const
    {
        return static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<T>>(val_) != 0;
    }
};

template <typename T, typename = typename std::enable_if<std::is_enum<T>::value, T>::type>
constexpr auto_bool<T> operator&(T lhs, T rhs)
{
    return static_cast<T>(
        static_cast<typename std::underlying_type<T>::type>(lhs) &
        static_cast<typename std::underlying_type<T>::type>(rhs));
}

template <typename T, typename = typename std::enable_if<std::is_enum<T>::value, T>::type>
constexpr T operator|(T lhs, T rhs)
{
    return static_cast<T>(
        static_cast<typename std::underlying_type<T>::type>(lhs) |
        static_cast<typename std::underlying_type<T>::type>(rhs));
}

enum class AnimalFlags : uint8_t 
{
    HasClaws = 1,
    CanFly = 2,
    EatsFish = 4,
    Endangered = 8
};

enum class PlantFlags : uint8_t
{
    HasLeaves = 1,
    HasFlowers = 2,
    HasFruit = 4,
    HasThorns = 8
};

int main()
{
    AnimalFlags seahawk = AnimalFlags::CanFly;        // Compiles, as expected
    AnimalFlags lion = AnimalFlags::HasClaws;         // Compiles, as expected
    PlantFlags rose = PlantFlags::HasFlowers;         // Compiles, as expected
//  rose = 1;                                         // Won't compile, as expected
    if (seahawk != lion) {}                           // Compiles, as expected
//  if (seahawk == rose) {}                           // Won't compile, as expected
//  seahawk = PlantFlags::HasThorns;                  // Won't compile, as expected
    seahawk = seahawk | AnimalFlags::EatsFish;        // Compiles, as expected
    lion = AnimalFlags::HasClaws |                    // Compiles, as expected
           AnimalFlags::Endangered;
//  int eagle = AnimalFlags::CanFly |                 // Won't compile, as expected
//              AnimalFlags::HasClaws;
//  int has_claws = seahawk & AnimalFlags::CanFly;    // Won't compile, as expected
    if (seahawk & AnimalFlags::CanFly) {}             // Compiles, as expected
    seahawk = seahawk & AnimalFlags::CanFly;          // Compiles, as expected

    return 0;
}

This creates overloads of the necessary operators but uses SFINAE to limit them to enumerated types. Note that in the interests of brevity I haven't defined all of the operators but the only one that is any different is the &. The operators are currently global (i.e. apply to all enumerated types) but this could be reduced either by placing the overloads in a namespace (what I do), or by adding additional SFINAE conditions (perhaps using particular underlying types, or specially created type aliases). The underlying_type_t is a C++14 feature but it seems to be well supported and is easy to emulate for C++11 with a simple template<typename T> using underlying_type_t = underlying_type<T>::type;

编辑:我纳入了弗拉基米尔·阿菲内洛建议的变化。用GCC 10、CLANG 13和Visual Studio 2022测试。

“正确”的方法是为枚举定义位操作符,如下所示:

enum AnimalFlags
{
    HasClaws   = 1,
    CanFly     = 2,
    EatsFish   = 4,
    Endangered = 8
};

inline AnimalFlags operator|(AnimalFlags a, AnimalFlags b)
{
    return static_cast<AnimalFlags>(static_cast<int>(a) | static_cast<int>(b));
}

等等,其余的位操作符。如果枚举范围超过int range,则根据需要修改。

另一个宏解决方案,但与现有的答案不同,它没有使用reinterpret_cast(或C-cast)在enum&t和Int&之间进行强制转换,这在标准c++中是禁止的(参见本文)。

#define MAKE_FLAGS_ENUM(TEnum, TUnder)                                                                                             \
TEnum  operator~  ( TEnum  a          ) { return static_cast<TEnum> (~static_cast<TUnder> (a)                           ); }  \
TEnum  operator|  ( TEnum  a, TEnum b ) { return static_cast<TEnum> ( static_cast<TUnder> (a) |  static_cast<TUnder>(b) ); }  \
TEnum  operator&  ( TEnum  a, TEnum b ) { return static_cast<TEnum> ( static_cast<TUnder> (a) &  static_cast<TUnder>(b) ); }  \
TEnum  operator^  ( TEnum  a, TEnum b ) { return static_cast<TEnum> ( static_cast<TUnder> (a) ^  static_cast<TUnder>(b) ); }  \
TEnum& operator|= ( TEnum& a, TEnum b ) { a = static_cast<TEnum>(static_cast<TUnder>(a) | static_cast<TUnder>(b) ); return a; }  \
TEnum& operator&= ( TEnum& a, TEnum b ) { a = static_cast<TEnum>(static_cast<TUnder>(a) & static_cast<TUnder>(b) ); return a; }  \
TEnum& operator^= ( TEnum& a, TEnum b ) { a = static_cast<TEnum>(static_cast<TUnder>(a) ^ static_cast<TUnder>(b) ); return a; }

失去reinterpret_cast意味着我们不能再依赖x |= y语法,但是通过将这些扩展为x = x | y形式,我们就不再需要它了。

注意:你可以使用std::underlying_type来获取TUnder,为了简洁,我没有包括它。

目前还没有语言支持枚举标志,如果它将成为c++标准的一部分,元类可能会固有地添加这个特性。

我的解决方案是创建仅枚举实例化的模板函数,为枚举类使用其底层类型添加类型安全的按位操作支持:

文件:EnumClassBitwise.h

#pragma once
#ifndef _ENUM_CLASS_BITWISE_H_
#define _ENUM_CLASS_BITWISE_H_

#include <type_traits>

//unary ~operator    
template <typename Enum, typename std::enable_if_t<std::is_enum<Enum>::value, int> = 0>
constexpr inline Enum& operator~ (Enum& val)
{
    val = static_cast<Enum>(~static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(val));
    return val;
}

// & operator
template <typename Enum, typename std::enable_if_t<std::is_enum<Enum>::value, int> = 0>
constexpr inline Enum operator& (Enum lhs, Enum rhs)
{
    return static_cast<Enum>(static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(lhs) & static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(rhs));
}

// &= operator
template <typename Enum, typename std::enable_if_t<std::is_enum<Enum>::value, int> = 0>
constexpr inline Enum operator&= (Enum& lhs, Enum rhs)
{
    lhs = static_cast<Enum>(static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(lhs) & static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(rhs));
    return lhs;
}

//| operator

template <typename Enum, typename std::enable_if_t<std::is_enum<Enum>::value, int> = 0>
constexpr inline Enum operator| (Enum lhs, Enum rhs)
{
    return static_cast<Enum>(static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(lhs) | static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(rhs));
}
//|= operator

template <typename Enum, typename std::enable_if_t<std::is_enum<Enum>::value, int> = 0>
constexpr inline Enum& operator|= (Enum& lhs, Enum rhs)
{
    lhs = static_cast<Enum>(static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(lhs) | static_cast<std::underlying_type_t<Enum>>(rhs));
    return lhs;
}

#endif // _ENUM_CLASS_BITWISE_H_

为了方便和减少错误,你可能想要包装你的枚举和整数的位标志操作:

文件:BitFlags.h

#pragma once
#ifndef _BIT_FLAGS_H_
#define _BIT_FLAGS_H_

#include "EnumClassBitwise.h"

 template<typename T>
 class BitFlags
 {
 public:

     constexpr inline BitFlags() = default;
     constexpr inline BitFlags(T value) { mValue = value; }
     constexpr inline BitFlags operator| (T rhs) const { return mValue | rhs; }
     constexpr inline BitFlags operator& (T rhs) const { return mValue & rhs; }
     constexpr inline BitFlags operator~ () const { return ~mValue; }
     constexpr inline operator T() const { return mValue; }
     constexpr inline BitFlags& operator|=(T rhs) { mValue |= rhs; return *this; }
     constexpr inline BitFlags& operator&=(T rhs) { mValue &= rhs; return *this; }
     constexpr inline bool test(T rhs) const { return (mValue & rhs) == rhs; }
     constexpr inline void set(T rhs) { mValue |= rhs; }
     constexpr inline void clear(T rhs) { mValue &= ~rhs; }

 private:
     T mValue;
 };
#endif //#define _BIT_FLAGS_H_

可能的用法:

#include <cstdint>
#include <BitFlags.h>
void main()
{
    enum class Options : uint32_t
    { 
          NoOption = 0 << 0
        , Option1  = 1 << 0
        , Option2  = 1 << 1
        , Option3  = 1 << 2
        , Option4  = 1 << 3
    };

    const uint32_t Option1 = 1 << 0;
    const uint32_t Option2 = 1 << 1;
    const uint32_t Option3 = 1 << 2;
    const uint32_t Option4 = 1 << 3;

   //Enum BitFlags
    BitFlags<Options> optionsEnum(Options::NoOption);
    optionsEnum.set(Options::Option1 | Options::Option3);

   //Standard integer BitFlags
    BitFlags<uint32_t> optionsUint32(0);
    optionsUint32.set(Option1 | Option3); 

    return 0;
}

对于像我这样的懒人来说,下面是复制粘贴的模板解决方案:

template<class T> inline T operator~ (T a) { return (T)~(int)a; }
template<class T> inline T operator| (T a, T b) { return (T)((int)a | (int)b); }
template<class T> inline T operator& (T a, T b) { return (T)((int)a & (int)b); }
template<class T> inline T operator^ (T a, T b) { return (T)((int)a ^ (int)b); }
template<class T> inline T& operator|= (T& a, T b) { return (T&)((int&)a |= (int)b); }
template<class T> inline T& operator&= (T& a, T b) { return (T&)((int&)a &= (int)b); }
template<class T> inline T& operator^= (T& a, T b) { return (T&)((int&)a ^= (int)b); }
