例子

举例往往比冗长的解释更好。 您可以在Coliru上编译和运行这个代码片段。 (另一个前面的例子也可用)

#include <map>
#include <iostream>

struct MyClass
{
    enum class MyEnum : char {
        AAA = -8,
        BBB = '8',
        CCC = AAA + BBB
    };
};

// Replace magic() by some faster compile-time generated code
// (you're allowed to replace the return type with std::string
// if that's easier for you)
const char* magic (MyClass::MyEnum e)
{
    const std::map<MyClass::MyEnum,const char*> MyEnumStrings {
        { MyClass::MyEnum::AAA, "MyClass::MyEnum::AAA" },
        { MyClass::MyEnum::BBB, "MyClass::MyEnum::BBB" },
        { MyClass::MyEnum::CCC, "MyClass::MyEnum::CCC" }
    };
    auto   it  = MyEnumStrings.find(e);
    return it == MyEnumStrings.end() ? "Out of range" : it->second;
}

int main()
{
   std::cout << magic(MyClass::MyEnum::AAA) <<'\n';
   std::cout << magic(MyClass::MyEnum::BBB) <<'\n';
   std::cout << magic(MyClass::MyEnum::CCC) <<'\n';
}

一个可能的想法是使用c++编译器功能,在编译时使用基于可变参数模板类和constexpr函数的元编程技巧来生成c++代码……


当前回答

您可以使用select()函数,这实际上只是一个简短的开关;这不是真正意义上的解决方案,但它让生活更容易:

enum
{
  NORMAL,
  INVALID
} state(NORMAL);

//std::cout << (state ? "INVALID" : "NORMAL") << std::endl;
std::cout << select(state, "NORMAL", "INVALID") << std::endl;

select()函数在SIMD/GPU编程中很常见。它们是三元?:运算符的推广。还可以将select()视为函数数组(实现数组数据结构的函数)。

这里有一个完整的例子。

其他回答

编辑:检查下面的新版本

如上所述,N4113是这个问题的最终解决方案,但我们要等一年多才能看到它的出现。

同时,如果你想要这样的特性,你将需要求助于“简单的”模板和一些预处理器魔法。

枚举器

template<typename T>
class Enum final
{
    const char* m_name;
    const T m_value;
    static T m_counter;

public:
    Enum(const char* str, T init = m_counter) : m_name(str), m_value(init) {m_counter = (init + 1);}

    const T value() const {return m_value;}
    const char* name() const {return m_name;}
};

template<typename T>
T Enum<T>::m_counter = 0;

#define ENUM_TYPE(x)      using Enum = Enum<x>;
#define ENUM_DECL(x,...)  x(#x,##__VA_ARGS__)
#define ENUM(...)         const Enum ENUM_DECL(__VA_ARGS__);

使用

#include <iostream>

//the initialization order should be correct in all scenarios
namespace Level
{
    ENUM_TYPE(std::uint8)
    ENUM(OFF)
    ENUM(SEVERE)
    ENUM(WARNING)
    ENUM(INFO, 10)
    ENUM(DEBUG)
    ENUM(ALL)
}

namespace Example
{
    ENUM_TYPE(long)
    ENUM(A)
    ENUM(B)
    ENUM(C, 20)
    ENUM(D)
    ENUM(E)
    ENUM(F)
}

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    Level::Enum lvl = Level::WARNING;
    Example::Enum ex = Example::C;
    std::cout << lvl.value() << std::endl; //2
    std::cout << ex.value() << std::endl; //20
}

简单的解释

Enum<T>::m_counter在每个命名空间声明中设置为0。 (有人能告诉我^^这种行为^^在标准中被提到了吗?) 预处理器的魔力使枚举数的声明自动化。

缺点

它不是真正的枚举类型,因此不能提升为int 不能在交换机情况下使用


可选择的解决方案

这种方法牺牲了线路编号(不是真的),但可以在开关情况下使用。

#define ENUM_TYPE(x) using type = Enum<x>
#define ENUM(x)      constexpr type x{__LINE__,#x}

template<typename T>
struct Enum final
{
    const T value;
    const char* name;

    constexpr operator const T() const noexcept {return value;}
    constexpr const char* operator&() const noexcept {return name;}
};

勘误表

在GCC和clang上,# 0行与-迂腐冲突。

解决方案

要么从#第1行开始,然后从__LINE__减去1。 或者,不要用-pedantic。 当我们谈到它的时候,要不惜一切代价避免vc++,它一直是编译器的一个笑话。

使用

#include <iostream>

namespace Level
{
    ENUM_TYPE(short);
    #line 0
    ENUM(OFF);
    ENUM(SEVERE);
    ENUM(WARNING);
    #line 10
    ENUM(INFO);
    ENUM(DEBUG);
    ENUM(ALL);
    #line <next line number> //restore the line numbering
};

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    std::cout << Level::OFF << std::endl;   // 0
    std::cout << &Level::OFF << std::endl;  // OFF

    std::cout << Level::INFO << std::endl;  // 10
    std::cout << &Level::INFO << std::endl; // INFO

    switch(/* any integer or integer-convertible type */)
    {
    case Level::OFF:
        //...
        break;

    case Level::SEVERE:
        //...
        break;

    //...
    }

    return 0;
}

这是一条直线

这个要点提供了一个基于c++可变参数模板的简单映射。

这是一个c++ 17简化版的基于类型的映射的要点:

#include <cstring> // http://stackoverflow.com/q/24520781

template<typename KeyValue, typename ... RestOfKeyValues>
struct map {
  static constexpr typename KeyValue::key_t get(const char* val) noexcept {
    if constexpr (sizeof...(RestOfKeyValues)==0)  // C++17 if constexpr
      return KeyValue::key; // Returns last element
    else {
      static_assert(KeyValue::val != nullptr,
                  "Only last element may have null name");
      return strcmp(val, KeyValue::val()) 
            ? map<RestOfKeyValues...>::get(val) : KeyValue::key;
    }
  }
  static constexpr const char* get(typename KeyValue::key_t key) noexcept {
    if constexpr (sizeof...(RestOfKeyValues)==0)
      return (KeyValue::val != nullptr) && (key == KeyValue::key)
            ? KeyValue::val() : "";
    else
      return (key == KeyValue::key) 
            ? KeyValue::val() : map<RestOfKeyValues...>::get(key);
  }
};

template<typename Enum, typename ... KeyValues>
class names {
  typedef map<KeyValues...> Map;
public:
  static constexpr Enum get(const char* nam) noexcept {
    return Map::get(nam);
  }
  static constexpr const char* get(Enum key) noexcept {
    return Map::get(key);
  }
};

用法示例:

enum class fasion {
    fancy,
    classic,
    sporty,
    emo,
    __last__ = emo,
    __unknown__ = -1
};

#define NAME(s) static inline constexpr const char* s() noexcept {return #s;}
namespace name {
    NAME(fancy)
    NAME(classic)
    NAME(sporty)
    NAME(emo)
}

template<auto K, const char* (*V)()>  // C++17 template<auto>
struct _ {
    typedef decltype(K) key_t;
    typedef decltype(V) name_t;
    static constexpr key_t  key = K; // enum id value
    static constexpr name_t val = V; // enum id name
};

typedef names<fasion,
    _<fasion::fancy, name::fancy>,
    _<fasion::classic, name::classic>,
    _<fasion::sporty, name::sporty>,
    _<fasion::emo, name::emo>,
    _<fasion::__unknown__, nullptr>
> fasion_names;

map < keyvalue…>可以双向使用:

fasion_names:把(in fashion: emo) fasion_names::把(“emo”)

这个例子可以在godbolt.org上找到

int main ()
{
  constexpr auto str = fasion_names::get(fasion::emo);
  constexpr auto fsn = fasion_names::get(str);
  return (int) fsn;
}

结果:gc -7 -std=c++1z -Ofast -S

main:
        mov     eax, 3
        ret

我不确定这种方法是否已经包含在其他答案中(实际上是,见下文)。我遇到过这个问题很多次,但没有找到不使用混淆宏或第三方库的解决方案。因此,我决定编写自己的模糊宏版本。

我想启用的是等价的

enum class test1 { ONE, TWO = 13, SIX };

std::string toString(const test1& e) { ... }

int main() {
    test1 x;
    std::cout << toString(x) << "\n";
    std::cout << toString(test1::TWO) << "\n";
    std::cout << static_cast<std::underlying_type<test1>::type>(test1::TWO) << "\n";
    //std::cout << toString(123);// invalid
}

应该打印

ONE
TWO
13

我不是宏的粉丝。然而,除非c++本身支持将枚举转换为字符串,否则必须使用某种代码生成和/或宏(我怀疑这种情况不会很快发生)。我正在使用x宏:

// x_enum.h
#include <string>
#include <map>
#include <type_traits>
#define x_begin enum class x_name {
#define x_val(X) X
#define x_value(X,Y) X = Y
#define x_end };
x_enum_def
#undef x_begin
#undef x_val
#undef x_value
#undef x_end

#define x_begin inline std::string toString(const x_name& e) { \
                static std::map<x_name,std::string> names = { 
#define x_val(X)      { x_name::X , #X }
#define x_value(X,Y)  { x_name::X , #X }
#define x_end }; return names[e]; }
x_enum_def
#undef x_begin
#undef x_val
#undef x_value
#undef x_end
#undef x_name
#undef x_enum_def

其中大部分是定义和取消定义符号,用户将通过include将这些符号作为参数传递给X-marco。用法是这样的

#define x_name test1
#define x_enum_def x_begin x_val(ONE) , \
                           x_value(TWO,13) , \
                           x_val(SIX) \
                   x_end
#include "x_enum.h"

现场演示

注意,我还没有包括选择基础类型。到目前为止,我还不需要它,但它应该是直接修改代码来启用它。

写完这篇文章后,我才意识到这和eferion的答案很相似。也许我以前读过,也许它是灵感的主要来源。我总是不能理解x -宏,直到我写了自己的;)。

(better_enum库的方法)

在当前的c++中,有一种方法是这样做的:

ENUM(Channel, char, Red = 1, Green, Blue)

// "Same as":
// enum class Channel : char { Red = 1, Green, Blue };

用法:

Channel     c = Channel::_from_string("Green");  // Channel::Green (2)
c._to_string();                                  // string "Green"

for (Channel c : Channel::_values())
    std::cout << c << std::endl;

// And so on...

所有操作都可以写成constexpr。你也可以实现@ecatmur回答中提到的c++ 17反射提议。

There is only one macro. I believe this is the minimum possible, because preprocessor stringization (#) is the only way to convert a token to a string in current C++. The macro is pretty unobtrusive – the constant declarations, including initializers, are pasted into a built-in enum declaration. This means they have the same syntax and meaning as in a built-in enum. Repetition is eliminated. The implementation is most natural and useful in at least C++11, due to constexpr. It can also be made to work with C++98 + __VA_ARGS__. It is definitely modern C++.


宏的定义有些复杂,所以我将从几个方面回答这个问题。

The bulk of this answer is an implementation that I think is suitable for the space constraints on StackOverflow. There is also a CodeProject article describing the basics of the implementation in a long-form tutorial. [Should I move it here? I think it's too much for a SO answer]. There is a full-featured library "Better Enums" that implements the macro in a single header file. It also implements N4428 Type Property Queries, the current revision of the C++17 reflection proposal N4113. So, at least for enums declared through this macro, you can have the proposed C++17 enum reflection now, in C++11/C++14.

将这个答案扩展到库的特性是很简单的——这里没有遗漏任何“重要”的东西。然而,这是相当乏味的,并且存在编译器可移植性问题。

免责声明:我是CodeProject文章和该库的作者。

您可以尝试这个答案中的代码、库以及在Wandbox中在线实现N4428。标准库文档还包含如何将其作为N4428使用的概述,其中解释了该建议的enumums部分。


解释

下面的代码实现了枚举和字符串之间的转换。然而,它也可以扩展到做其他事情,比如迭代。此答案将枚举包装在结构体中。你也可以在枚举旁边生成一个trait结构体。

策略是生成如下内容:

struct Channel {
    enum _enum : char { __VA_ARGS__ };
    constexpr static const Channel          _values[] = { __VA_ARGS__ };
    constexpr static const char * const     _names[] = { #__VA_ARGS__ };

    static const char* _to_string(Channel v) { /* easy */ }
    constexpr static Channel _from_string(const char *s) { /* easy */ }
};

问题是:

We will end up with something like {Red = 1, Green, Blue} as the initializer for the values array. This is not valid C++, because Red is not an assignable expression. This is solved by casting each constant to a type T that has an assignment operator, but will drop the assignment: {(T)Red = 1, (T)Green, (T)Blue}. Similarly, we will end up with {"Red = 1", "Green", "Blue"} as the initializer for the names array. We will need to trim off the " = 1". I am not aware of a great way to do this at compile time, so we will defer this to run time. As a result, _to_string won't be constexpr, but _from_string can still be constexpr, because we can treat whitespace and equals signs as terminators when comparing with untrimmed strings. Both the above need a "mapping" macro that can apply another macro to each element in __VA_ARGS__. This is pretty standard. This answer includes a simple version that can handle up to 8 elements. If the macro is to be truly self-contained, it needs to declare no static data that requires a separate definition. In practice, this means arrays need special treatment. There are two possible solutions: constexpr (or just const) arrays at namespace scope, or regular arrays in non-constexpr static inline functions. The code in this answer is for C++11 and takes the former approach. The CodeProject article is for C++98 and takes the latter.

// The macro proper.
//
// There are several "simplifications" in this implementation, for the
// sake of brevity. First, we have only one viable option for declaring
// constexpr arrays: at namespace scope. This probably should be done
// two namespaces deep: one namespace that is likely to be unique for
// our little enum "library", then inside it a namespace whose name is
// based on the name of the enum to avoid collisions with other enums.
// I am using only one level of nesting.
//
// Declaring constexpr arrays inside the struct is not viable because
// they will need out-of-line definitions, which will result in
// duplicate symbols when linking. This can be solved with weak
// symbols, but that is compiler- and system-specific. It is not
// possible to declare constexpr arrays as static variables in
// constexpr functions due to the restrictions on such functions.
//
// Note that this prevents the use of this macro anywhere except at
// namespace scope. Ironically, the C++98 version of this, which can
// declare static arrays inside static member functions, is actually
// more flexible in this regard. It is shown in the CodeProject
// article.
//
// Second, for compilation performance reasons, it is best to separate
// the macro into a "parametric" portion, and the portion that depends
// on knowing __VA_ARGS__, and factor the former out into a template.
//
// Third, this code uses a default parameter in _from_string that may
// be better not exposed in the public interface.

// The code above was a "header file". This is a program that uses it.

ENUM(Channel, char, Red = 1, Green, Blue)

constexpr Channel   channel = Channel::_from_string("Red");

int main()
{
    std::cout << channel._to_string() << std::endl;

    switch (channel) {
        case Channel::Red:   return 0;
        case Channel::Green: return 1;
        case Channel::Blue:  return 2;
    }
}

static_assert(sizeof(Channel) == sizeof(char), "");

如您所料,上面的程序输出红色。这里有一定程度的类型安全,因为您不能在没有初始化的情况下创建枚举,并且从开关中删除其中一个情况将导致编译器发出警告(取决于您的编译器和标志)。另外,请注意“Red”在编译过程中被转换为枚举。

下面的解决方案是基于给定enum的std::array<std::string,N>。

对于将enum转换为std::string,我们只需将enum转换为size_t,然后从数组中查找字符串。该操作是O(1),不需要堆分配。

#include <boost/preprocessor/seq/transform.hpp>
#include <boost/preprocessor/seq/enum.hpp>
#include <boost/preprocessor/stringize.hpp>

#include <string>
#include <array>
#include <iostream>

#define STRINGIZE(s, data, elem) BOOST_PP_STRINGIZE(elem)

// ENUM
// ============================================================================
#define ENUM(X, SEQ) \
struct X {   \
    enum Enum {BOOST_PP_SEQ_ENUM(SEQ)}; \
    static const std::array<std::string,BOOST_PP_SEQ_SIZE(SEQ)> array_of_strings() { \
        return {{BOOST_PP_SEQ_ENUM(BOOST_PP_SEQ_TRANSFORM(STRINGIZE, 0, SEQ))}}; \
    } \
    static std::string to_string(Enum e) { \
        auto a = array_of_strings(); \
        return a[static_cast<size_t>(e)]; \
    } \
}

对于std::string到enum的转换,我们必须对数组进行线性搜索,并将数组索引强制转换为enum。

编辑:重做我的解决方案,以便自定义Enum可以在类中使用。
