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

这个解决方案怎么样?

#include <type_traits>

template <typename U, typename = void> struct hasToString : std::false_type { };

template <typename U>
struct hasToString<U,
  typename std::enable_if<bool(sizeof(&U::toString))>::type
> : std::true_type { };

其他回答

MSVC有__if_exists和__if_not_exists关键字(Doc)。连同Nicola的typef - sfinae方法,我可以创建一个检查GCC和MSVC,就像OP所寻找的那样。

更新:来源可以在这里找到

下面是一些用法片段: *所有这些的核心都在更深处

在给定的类中检查成员x。可以是var, func, class, union或enum:

CREATE_MEMBER_CHECK(x);
bool has_x = has_member_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员函数void x():

//Func signature MUST have T as template variable here... simpler this way :\
CREATE_MEMBER_FUNC_SIG_CHECK(x, void (T::*)(), void__x);
bool has_func_sig_void__x = has_member_func_void__x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员变量x:

CREATE_MEMBER_VAR_CHECK(x);
bool has_var_x = has_member_var_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员类x:

CREATE_MEMBER_CLASS_CHECK(x);
bool has_class_x = has_member_class_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员工会x:

CREATE_MEMBER_UNION_CHECK(x);
bool has_union_x = has_member_union_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查成员enum x:

CREATE_MEMBER_ENUM_CHECK(x);
bool has_enum_x = has_member_enum_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

检查任何成员函数x,而不考虑签名:

CREATE_MEMBER_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_VAR_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_CLASS_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_UNION_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_ENUM_CHECK(x);
CREATE_MEMBER_FUNC_CHECK(x);
bool has_any_func_x = has_member_func_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

OR

CREATE_MEMBER_CHECKS(x);  //Just stamps out the same macro calls as above.
bool has_any_func_x = has_member_func_x<class_to_check_for_x>::value;

细节和核心:

/*
    - Multiple inheritance forces ambiguity of member names.
    - SFINAE is used to make aliases to member names.
    - Expression SFINAE is used in just one generic has_member that can accept
      any alias we pass it.
*/

//Variadic to force ambiguity of class members.  C++11 and up.
template <typename... Args> struct ambiguate : public Args... {};

//Non-variadic version of the line above.
//template <typename A, typename B> struct ambiguate : public A, public B {};

template<typename A, typename = void>
struct got_type : std::false_type {};

template<typename A>
struct got_type<A> : std::true_type {
    typedef A type;
};

template<typename T, T>
struct sig_check : std::true_type {};

template<typename Alias, typename AmbiguitySeed>
struct has_member {
    template<typename C> static char ((&f(decltype(&C::value))))[1];
    template<typename C> static char ((&f(...)))[2];

    //Make sure the member name is consistently spelled the same.
    static_assert(
        (sizeof(f<AmbiguitySeed>(0)) == 1)
        , "Member name specified in AmbiguitySeed is different from member name specified in Alias, or wrong Alias/AmbiguitySeed has been specified."
    );

    static bool const value = sizeof(f<Alias>(0)) == 2;
};

我的观点是:在不为每一个都创建冗长的类型特征,或使用实验特性或长代码的情况下,普遍地确定某个东西是否可调用:

template<typename Callable, typename... Args, typename = decltype(declval<Callable>()(declval<Args>()...))>
std::true_type isCallableImpl(Callable, Args...) { return {}; }

std::false_type isCallableImpl(...) { return {}; }

template<typename... Args, typename Callable>
constexpr bool isCallable(Callable callable) {
    return decltype(isCallableImpl(callable, declval<Args>()...)){};
}

用法:

constexpr auto TO_STRING_TEST = [](auto in) -> decltype(in.toString()) { return {}; };
constexpr bool TO_STRING_WORKS = isCallable<T>(TO_STRING_TEST);

好吧,这个问题已经有一长串的答案了,但是我想强调一下Morwenn的评论:c++ 17有一个提案让它变得非常简单。有关详细信息,请参阅N4502,但作为一个自包含的示例,请考虑以下内容。

这部分是常量部分,放在头文件中。

// See http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2015/n4502.pdf.
template <typename...>
using void_t = void;

// Primary template handles all types not supporting the operation.
template <typename, template <typename> class, typename = void_t<>>
struct detect : std::false_type {};

// Specialization recognizes/validates only types supporting the archetype.
template <typename T, template <typename> class Op>
struct detect<T, Op, void_t<Op<T>>> : std::true_type {};

然后是变量部分,在此指定要查找的内容(类型、成员类型、函数、成员函数等)。就OP而言:

template <typename T>
using toString_t = decltype(std::declval<T>().toString());

template <typename T>
using has_toString = detect<T, toString_t>;

下面的例子取自N4502,展示了一个更精细的探针:

// Archetypal expression for assignment operation.
template <typename T>
using assign_t = decltype(std::declval<T&>() = std::declval<T const &>())

// Trait corresponding to that archetype.
template <typename T>
using is_assignable = detect<T, assign_t>;

与上面描述的其他实现相比,这个实现相当简单:减少了工具集(void_t和detect)就足够了,不需要复杂的宏。此外,据报道(参见N4502),它比以前的方法更有效(编译时间和编译器内存消耗)。

这里有一个活生生的例子。它与Clang一起工作得很好,但不幸的是,5.1之前的GCC版本遵循了对c++ 11标准的不同解释,这导致void_t不能按预期工作。Yakk已经提供了解决方案:使用以下定义的void_t (void_t在参数列表中有效,但不能作为返回类型):

#if __GNUC__ < 5 && ! defined __clang__
// https://stackoverflow.com/a/28967049/1353549
template <typename...>
struct voider
{
  using type = void;
};
template <typename...Ts>
using void_t = typename voider<Ts...>::type;
#else
template <typename...>
using void_t = void;
#endif

这个解决方案怎么样?
