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。
当前回答
c++ 11的一个简单解决方案:
template<class T>
auto optionalToString(T* obj)
-> decltype( obj->toString() )
{
return obj->toString();
}
auto optionalToString(...) -> string
{
return "toString not defined";
}
更新，3年后:(这是未经测试的)。为了检验是否存在，我认为这是可行的:
template<class T>
constexpr auto test_has_toString_method(T* obj)
-> decltype( obj->toString() , std::true_type{} )
{
return obj->toString();
}
constexpr auto test_has_toString_method(...) -> std::false_type
{
return "toString not defined";
}
其他回答
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;
}
c++ 20 -需要表达式
c++ 20带来了一些概念和各种工具，比如require表达式，这是一种检查函数是否存在的内置方式。有了它们，你可以重写optionalToString函数如下:
template<class T>
std::string optionalToString(T* obj)
{
constexpr bool has_toString = requires(const T& t) {
t.toString();
};
if constexpr (has_toString)
return obj->toString();
else
return "toString not defined";
}
pre - c++ 20 -检测工具包
N4502 proposes a detection toolkit for inclusion into the C++17 standard library that eventually made it into the library fundamentals TS v2. It most likely won't ever get into the standard because it has been subsumed by requires expressions since, but it still solves the problem in a somewhat elegant manner. The toolkit introduces some metafunctions, including std::is_detected which can be used to easily write type or function detection metafunctions on the top of it. Here is how you could use it:
template<typename T>
using toString_t = decltype( std::declval<T&>().toString() );
template<typename T>
constexpr bool has_toString = std::is_detected_v<toString_t, T>;
注意，上面的例子是未经测试的。标准库中还没有检测工具包，但建议包含了一个完整的实现，如果您确实需要它，可以很容易地复制它。它可以很好地使用c++ 17的特性，如果constexpr:
template<class T>
std::string optionalToString(T* obj)
{
if constexpr (has_toString<T>)
return obj->toString();
else
return "toString not defined";
}
C++14 - 助推哈娜
提振。Hana显然建立在这个特定的例子之上，并在其文档中提供了c++ 14的解决方案，所以我将直接引用它:
[...] Hana provides a is_valid function that can be combined with C++14 generic lambdas to obtain a much cleaner implementation of the same thing: auto has_toString = hana::is_valid([](auto&& obj) -> decltype(obj.toString()) { }); This leaves us with a function object has_toString which returns whether the given expression is valid on the argument we pass to it. The result is returned as an IntegralConstant, so constexpr-ness is not an issue here because the result of the function is represented as a type anyway. Now, in addition to being less verbose (that's a one liner!), the intent is much clearer. Other benefits are the fact that has_toString can be passed to higher order algorithms and it can also be defined at function scope, so there is no need to pollute the namespace scope with implementation details.

执行这种检查的另一个惯用工具包是Boost，尽管它没有那么优雅。TTI，在Boost 1.54 4.0中引入。对于您的示例，您必须使用宏BOOST_TTI_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION。下面是你如何使用它:
#include <boost/tti/has_member_function.hpp>
// Generate the metafunction
BOOST_TTI_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION(toString)
// Check whether T has a member function toString
// which takes no parameter and returns a std::string
constexpr bool foo = has_member_function_toString<T, std::string>::value;
然后，您可以使用bool来创建SFINAE检查。
解释
宏BOOST_TTI_HAS_MEMBER_FUNCTION生成元函数has_member_function_toString，该函数将选中的类型作为其第一个模板参数。第二个模板形参对应于成员函数的返回类型，下面的形参对应于函数形参的类型。如果类T有成员函数std::string toString()，则成员值为true。
或者，has_member_function_toString可以接受成员函数指针作为模板形参。因此，可以将has_member_function_toString<T, std::string>::value替换为has_member_function_toString<std::string T::* ()>::value。
我也遇到过类似的问题:
一个模板类，可以从少数基类派生，其中一些基类具有某个成员，而另一些基类没有。
我解决它类似于“typeof”(Nicola Bonelli)的答案，但使用decltype，所以它在MSVS上编译和正确运行:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
struct Generic {};
struct HasMember
{
HasMember() : _a(1) {};
int _a;
};
// SFINAE test
template <typename T>
class S : public T
{
public:
std::string foo (std::string b)
{
return foo2<T>(b,0);
}
protected:
template <typename T> std::string foo2 (std::string b, decltype (T::_a))
{
return b + std::to_string(T::_a);
}
template <typename T> std::string foo2 (std::string b, ...)
{
return b + "No";
}
};
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
S<HasMember> d1;
S<Generic> d2;
std::cout << d1.foo("HasMember: ") << std::endl;
std::cout << d2.foo("Generic: ") << std::endl;
return 0;
}
下面是我的版本，它可以任意处理所有可能的成员函数重载，包括模板成员函数，可能带有默认实参。当成员函数调用某个类类型时，它区分了3种互斥的情况，给定的arg类型:(1)有效，或(2)模糊，或(3)不可用。使用示例:
#include <string>
#include <vector>
HAS_MEM(bar)
HAS_MEM_FUN_CALL(bar)
struct test
{
void bar(int);
void bar(double);
void bar(int,double);
template < typename T >
typename std::enable_if< not std::is_integral<T>::value >::type
bar(const T&, int=0){}
template < typename T >
typename std::enable_if< std::is_integral<T>::value >::type
bar(const std::vector<T>&, T*){}
template < typename T >
int bar(const std::string&, int){}
};
现在你可以这样使用它:
int main(int argc, const char * argv[])
{
static_assert( has_mem_bar<test>::value , "");
static_assert( has_valid_mem_fun_call_bar<test(char const*,long)>::value , "");
static_assert( has_valid_mem_fun_call_bar<test(std::string&,long)>::value , "");
static_assert( has_valid_mem_fun_call_bar<test(std::vector<int>, int*)>::value , "");
static_assert( has_no_viable_mem_fun_call_bar<test(std::vector<double>, double*)>::value , "");
static_assert( has_valid_mem_fun_call_bar<test(int)>::value , "");
static_assert( std::is_same<void,result_of_mem_fun_call_bar<test(int)>::type>::value , "");
static_assert( has_valid_mem_fun_call_bar<test(int,double)>::value , "");
static_assert( not has_valid_mem_fun_call_bar<test(int,double,int)>::value , "");
static_assert( not has_ambiguous_mem_fun_call_bar<test(double)>::value , "");
static_assert( has_ambiguous_mem_fun_call_bar<test(unsigned)>::value , "");
static_assert( has_viable_mem_fun_call_bar<test(unsigned)>::value , "");
static_assert( has_viable_mem_fun_call_bar<test(int)>::value , "");
static_assert( has_no_viable_mem_fun_call_bar<test(void)>::value , "");
return 0;
}
下面是用c++11编写的代码，但是，你可以很容易地将它移植到具有typeof扩展的非c++11(例如gcc)。你可以用你自己的宏替换HAS_MEM宏。
