是否有可能编写一个模板,根据某个成员函数是否定义在类上而改变行为?

下面是我想写的一个简单的例子:

template<class T>
std::string optionalToString(T* obj)
{
    if (FUNCTION_EXISTS(T->toString))
        return obj->toString();
    else
        return "toString not defined";
}

因此,如果类T定义了toString(),那么它就使用它;否则,它就不会。我不知道如何做的神奇部分是“FUNCTION_EXISTS”部分。

泛型模板,用于检查类型是否支持某些“特性”:

#include <type_traits>

template <template <typename> class TypeChecker, typename Type>
struct is_supported
{
    // these structs are used to recognize which version
    // of the two functions was chosen during overload resolution
    struct supported {};
    struct not_supported {};

    // this overload of chk will be ignored by SFINAE principle
    // if TypeChecker<Type_> is invalid type
    template <typename Type_>
    static supported chk(typename std::decay<TypeChecker<Type_>>::type *);

    // ellipsis has the lowest conversion rank, so this overload will be
    // chosen during overload resolution only if the template overload above is ignored
    template <typename Type_>
    static not_supported chk(...);

    // if the template overload of chk is chosen during
    // overload resolution then the feature is supported
    // if the ellipses overload is chosen the the feature is not supported
    static constexpr bool value = std::is_same<decltype(chk<Type>(nullptr)),supported>::value;
};

检查方法foo是否与signature double兼容的模板(const char*)

// if T doesn't have foo method with the signature that allows to compile the bellow
// expression then instantiating this template is Substitution Failure (SF)
// which Is Not An Error (INAE) if this happens during overload resolution
template <typename T>
using has_foo = decltype(double(std::declval<T>().foo(std::declval<const char*>())));

例子

// types that support has_foo
struct struct1 { double foo(const char*); };            // exact signature match
struct struct2 { int    foo(const std::string &str); }; // compatible signature
struct struct3 { float  foo(...); };                    // compatible ellipsis signature
struct struct4 { template <typename T>
                 int    foo(T t); };                    // compatible template signature

// types that do not support has_foo
struct struct5 { void        foo(const char*); }; // returns void
struct struct6 { std::string foo(const char*); }; // std::string can't be converted to double
struct struct7 { double      foo(      int *); }; // const char* can't be converted to int*
struct struct8 { double      bar(const char*); }; // there is no foo method

int main()
{
    std::cout << std::boolalpha;

    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, int    >::value << std::endl; // false
    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, double >::value << std::endl; // false

    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, struct1>::value << std::endl; // true
    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, struct2>::value << std::endl; // true
    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, struct3>::value << std::endl; // true
    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, struct4>::value << std::endl; // true

    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, struct5>::value << std::endl; // false
    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, struct6>::value << std::endl; // false
    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, struct7>::value << std::endl; // false
    std::cout << is_supported<has_foo, struct8>::value << std::endl; // false

    return 0;
}

这是c++ 17中另一种实现方法(灵感来自boost:hana)。

该解决方案不需要has_something<T> SFINAE类型trait类。

解决方案

////////////////////////////////////////////
// has_member implementation
////////////////////////////////////////////

#include <type_traits>

template<typename T, typename F>
constexpr auto has_member_impl(F&& f) -> decltype(f(std::declval<T>()), true)
{
  return true;
}

template<typename>
constexpr bool has_member_impl(...) { return false; }

#define has_member(T, EXPR) \
 has_member_impl<T>( [](auto&& obj)->decltype(obj.EXPR){} )

Test

////////////////////////////////////////////
// Test
////////////////////////////////////////////

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

struct Example {
    int Foo;
    void Bar() {}
    std::string toString() { return "Hello from Example::toString()!"; }
};

struct Example2 {
    int X;
};

template<class T>
std::string optionalToString(T* obj)
{
    if constexpr(has_member(T, toString()))
        return obj->toString();
    else
        return "toString not defined";
}

int main() {
    static_assert(has_member(Example, Foo), 
                  "Example class must have Foo member");
    static_assert(has_member(Example, Bar()), 
                  "Example class must have Bar() member function");
    static_assert(!has_member(Example, ZFoo), 
                  "Example class must not have ZFoo member.");
    static_assert(!has_member(Example, ZBar()), 
                  "Example class must not have ZBar() member function");

    Example e1;
    Example2 e2;

    std::cout << "e1: " << optionalToString(&e1) << "\n";
    std::cout << "e1: " << optionalToString(&e2) << "\n";
}

pre -c++20,简单用例的简单选项:

如果你知道你的类是默认可构造的,我们可以使语法更简单。

我们将从最简单的情况开始:默认可构造对象,并且我们知道预期的返回类型。实例方法:

int foo ();

我们可以写出没有declval的类型trait:

template <auto v>
struct tag_v
{
    constexpr static auto value = v;
};

template <class, class = int>
struct has_foo_method : tag_v<false> {};

template <class T>
struct has_foo_method <T, decltype(T().foo())>
    : tag_v<true> {};

demo

注意,我们将默认类型设置为int,因为这是foo的返回类型。

如果有多个可接受的返回类型,则向decltype添加第二个参数,该参数与默认类型相同,覆盖第一个参数:

decltype(T().foo(), int())

demo

(这里的int类型不重要-我使用它是因为它只有3个字母)

这就是类型特征存在的意义。不幸的是,它们必须手动定义。在你的情况下,想象一下:

template <typename T>
struct response_trait {
    static bool const has_tostring = false;
};

template <>
struct response_trait<your_type_with_tostring> {
    static bool const has_tostring = true;
}

我一直在寻找一个方法,允许以某种方式不绑定结构名has_member类的成员的名字。 实际上,如果lambda可以被允许在未求值的表达式中(这是被标准禁止的),这将更简单,即has_member<ClassName, SOME_MACRO_WITH_DECLTYPE(member_name)>

#include <iostream>
#include <list>
#include <type_traits>

#define LAMBDA_FOR_MEMBER_NAME(NAME) [](auto object_instance) -> decltype(&(decltype(object_instance)::NAME)) {}

template<typename T>
struct TypeGetter
{
    constexpr TypeGetter() = default;
    constexpr TypeGetter(T) {}
    using type = T;

    constexpr auto getValue()
    {
        return std::declval<type>();
    }
};

template<typename T, typename LambdaExpressionT>
struct has_member {
    using lambda_prototype = LambdaExpressionT;

    //SFINAE
    template<class ValueT, class = void>
    struct is_void_t_deducable : std::false_type {};

    template<class ValueT>
    struct is_void_t_deducable<ValueT,
        std::void_t<decltype(std::declval<lambda_prototype>()(std::declval<ValueT>()))>> : std::true_type {};

    static constexpr bool value = is_void_t_deducable<T>::value;
};

struct SimpleClass
{
    int field;
    void method() {}
};

int main(void)
{   
    const auto helpful_lambda = LAMBDA_FOR_MEMBER_NAME(field);
    using member_field = decltype(helpful_lambda);
    std::cout << has_member<SimpleClass, member_field>::value;

    const auto lambda = LAMBDA_FOR_MEMBER_NAME(method);
    using member_method = decltype(lambda);
    std::cout << has_member<SimpleClass, member_method>::value;
    
}

是的,使用SFINAE您可以检查给定的类是否提供了特定的方法。下面是工作代码:

#include <iostream>

struct Hello
{
    int helloworld() { return 0; }
};

struct Generic {};    

// SFINAE test
template <typename T>
class has_helloworld
{
    typedef char one;
    struct two { char x[2]; };

    template <typename C> static one test( decltype(&C::helloworld) ) ;
    template <typename C> static two test(...);    

public:
    enum { value = sizeof(test<T>(0)) == sizeof(char) };
};
    
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    std::cout << has_helloworld<Hello>::value << std::endl;
    std::cout << has_helloworld<Generic>::value << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

我刚刚用Linux和gcc 4.1/4.3测试了它。我不知道它是否可以移植到运行不同编译器的其他平台。
