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。

这里有一些用法示例:http://coliru.stacked-crooked.com/a/e4212f93bee65076

编辑:重做我的解决方案，以便自定义Enum可以在类中使用。

#define ENUM_MAKE(TYPE, ...) \
        enum class TYPE {__VA_ARGS__};\
        struct Helper_ ## TYPE { \
            static const String& toName(TYPE type) {\
                int index = static_cast<int>(type);\
                return splitStringVec()[index];}\
            static const TYPE toType(const String& name){\
                static std::unordered_map<String,TYPE> typeNameMap;\
                if( typeNameMap.empty() )\
                {\
                    const StringVector& ssVec = splitStringVec();\
                    for (size_t i = 0; i < ssVec.size(); ++i)\
                        typeNameMap.insert(std::make_pair(ssVec[i], static_cast<TYPE>(i)));\
                }\
                return typeNameMap[name];}\
            static const StringVector& splitStringVec() {\

                if(typeNameVector.empty()) \

                    for (auto& name : typeNameVector)\
                    {\
                        name.erase(std::remove(name.begin(), name.end(), ' '),name.end()); \
                        name = String(#TYPE) + "::" + name;\

        unsigned int numSplits = 0;

        // Use STL methods 
        size_t start, pos;
        start = 0;

例子

ENUM_MAKE(MY_TEST, MY_1, MY_2, MY_3)


    MY_TEST s1 = MY_TEST::MY_1;
    MY_TEST s2 = MY_TEST::MY_2;
    MY_TEST s3 = MY_TEST::MY_3;

    String z1 = Helper_MY_TEST::toName(s1);
    String z2 = Helper_MY_TEST::toName(s2);
    String z3 = Helper_MY_TEST::toName(s3);

    MY_TEST q1 = Helper_MY_TEST::toType(z1);
    MY_TEST q2 = Helper_MY_TEST::toType(z2);
    MY_TEST q3 = Helper_MY_TEST::toType(z3);

自动ENUM_MAKE宏生成“枚举类”和“枚举反射函数”辅助类。

为了减少错误，Everything只定义一个ENUM_MAKE。

这种代码的优点是自动创建用于反射和查看宏代码，易于理解的代码。'enum to string'， 'string to enum'性能都是算法O(1)。

缺点是第一次使用时，枚举relection的string vector和map的helper类被初始化。 但是如果你想，你也会被预初始化。- - - - - -

根据OP的要求，这里有一个基于Boost preproessor和Variadic Macros的丑陋宏解决方案的精简版本。

它允许类似枚举元素语法的简单列表，并为特定元素设置值，以便

XXX_ENUM(foo,(a,b,(c,42)));

扩大到

enum foo {
    a,
    b,
    c=42
};

与必要的函数一起输出并做一些转换。这个宏已经存在了很长时间，我不完全确定这是最有效的方式，或者它是一种一致的方式，但它一直以来都在工作

完整的代码可以在Ideone和Coliru中看到。

它的巨大丑陋在上面;如果我知道怎么做，我会把它放在剧透后面保护你的眼睛，但markdown不喜欢我。

使用

#include "xxx_enum.h"  // the above lib
#include <iostream>

XXX_ENUM(foo,(a,b,(c,42)));

int main()
{
  std::cout << "foo::a = "            << foo::a            <<'\n';
  std::cout << "(int)foo::c = "       << (int)foo::c       <<'\n';
  std::cout << "to_string(foo::b) = " << to_string(foo::b) <<'\n';
  std::cout << "xxx::enum_cast<foo>(\"b\") = " << xxx::enum_cast<foo>("b") <<'\n';
}

编译(在main.cpp中复制粘贴头文件)

> g++ --version | sed 1q
g++ (GCC) 4.9.2

> g++ -std=c++14 -pedantic -Wall -Wextra main.cpp
main.cpp:268:31: warning: extra ';' [-Wpedantic]
     XXX_ENUM(foo,(a,b,(c,42)));
                               ^

输出

foo::a = foo::a
(int)foo::c = 42
to_string(foo::b) = foo::b
xxx::enum_cast<foo>("b") = foo::b

很长一段时间以来，我也一直为这个问题感到沮丧，还有以适当的方式将类型转换为字符串的问题。然而，对于最后一个问题，我对在标准c++中打印变量类型是否可能解释的解决方案感到惊讶?，使用的思想从Can I obtain c++ type name in a constexpr way?使用这种技术，可以构造一个类似的函数来获取枚举值为string:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class static_string
{
    const char* const p_;
    const std::size_t sz_;

public:
    typedef const char* const_iterator;

    template <std::size_t N>
    constexpr static_string(const char(&a)[N]) noexcept
        : p_(a)
        , sz_(N - 1)
    {}

    constexpr static_string(const char* p, std::size_t N) noexcept
        : p_(p)
        , sz_(N)
    {}

    constexpr const char* data() const noexcept { return p_; }
    constexpr std::size_t size() const noexcept { return sz_; }

    constexpr const_iterator begin() const noexcept { return p_; }
    constexpr const_iterator end()   const noexcept { return p_ + sz_; }

    constexpr char operator[](std::size_t n) const
    {
        return n < sz_ ? p_[n] : throw std::out_of_range("static_string");
    }
};

inline std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& os, static_string const& s)
{
    return os.write(s.data(), s.size());
}

/// \brief Get the name of a type
template <class T>
static_string typeName()
{
#ifdef __clang__
    static_string p = __PRETTY_FUNCTION__;
    return static_string(p.data() + 30, p.size() - 30 - 1);
#elif defined(_MSC_VER)
    static_string p = __FUNCSIG__;
    return static_string(p.data() + 37, p.size() - 37 - 7);
#endif

}

namespace details
{
    template <class Enum>
    struct EnumWrapper
    {
        template < Enum enu >
        static static_string name()
        {
#ifdef __clang__
            static_string p = __PRETTY_FUNCTION__;
            static_string enumType = typeName<Enum>();
            return static_string(p.data() + 73 + enumType.size(), p.size() - 73 - enumType.size() - 1);
#elif defined(_MSC_VER)
            static_string p = __FUNCSIG__;
            static_string enumType = typeName<Enum>();
            return static_string(p.data() + 57 + enumType.size(), p.size() - 57 - enumType.size() - 7);
#endif
        }
    };
}

/// \brief Get the name of an enum value
template <typename Enum, Enum enu>
static_string enumName()
{
    return details::EnumWrapper<Enum>::template name<enu>();
}

enum class Color
{
    Blue = 0,
    Yellow = 1
};


int main() 
{
    std::cout << "_" << typeName<Color>() << "_"  << std::endl;
    std::cout << "_" << enumName<Color, Color::Blue>() << "_"  << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

上面的代码只在Clang(参见https://ideone.com/je5Quv)和VS2015上进行了测试，但是应该可以通过对整数常量进行一些调整来适应其他编译器。当然，它仍然在底层使用宏，但至少有一个宏不需要访问枚举实现。

几天前我也遇到了同样的问题。没有一些奇怪的宏魔法，我找不到任何c++解决方案，所以我决定写一个CMake代码生成器来生成简单的开关case语句。

用法:

enum2str_generate(
  PATH          <path to place the files in>
  CLASS_NAME    <name of the class (also prefix for the files)>
  FUNC_NAME     <name of the (static) member function>
  NAMESPACE     <the class will be inside this namespace>
  INCLUDES      <LIST of files where the enums are defined>
  ENUMS         <LIST of enums to process>
  BLACKLIST     <LIST of constants to ignore>
  USE_CONSTEXPR <whether to use constexpr or not (default: off)>
  USE_C_STRINGS <whether to use c strings instead of std::string or not (default: off)>
)

该函数搜索文件系统中的include文件(使用include_directories命令提供的include目录)，读取它们并执行一些regex来生成类和函数。

注意:constexpr在c++中意味着内联，所以使用USE_CONSTEXPR选项将只生成一个头类!

例子:

- includes a。h:

enum AAA : char { A1, A2 };

typedef enum {
   VAL1          = 0,
   VAL2          = 1,
   VAL3          = 2,
   VAL_FIRST     = VAL1,    // Ignored
   VAL_LAST      = VAL3,    // Ignored
   VAL_DUPLICATE = 1,       // Ignored
   VAL_STRANGE   = VAL2 + 1 // Must be blacklisted
} BBB;

/ CMakeLists.txt:

include_directories( ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/includes ...)

enum2str_generate(
   PATH       "${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}"
   CLASS_NAME "enum2Str"
   NAMESPACE  "abc"
   FUNC_NAME  "toStr"
   INCLUDES   "a.h" # WITHOUT directory
   ENUMS      "AAA" "BBB"
   BLACKLIST  "VAL_STRANGE")

生成:

/ enum2Str.hpp:

/*!
  * \file enum2Str.hpp
  * \warning This is an automatically generated file!
  */

#ifndef ENUM2STR_HPP
#define ENUM2STR_HPP

#include <string>
#include <a.h>

namespace abc {

class enum2Str {
 public:
   static std::string toStr( AAA _var ) noexcept;
   static std::string toStr( BBB _var ) noexcept;
};

}

#endif // ENUM2STR_HPP

/ enum2Str.cpp:

/*!
  * \file enum2Str.cpp
  * \warning This is an automatically generated file!
  */

#include "enum2Str.hpp"

namespace abc {

/*!
 * \brief Converts the enum AAA to a std::string
 * \param _var The enum value to convert
 * \returns _var converted to a std::string
 */
std::string enum2Str::toStr( AAA _var ) noexcept {
   switch ( _var ) {
      case A1: return "A1";
      case A2: return "A2";
      default: return "<UNKNOWN>";
   }
}

/*!
 * \brief Converts the enum BBB to a std::string
 * \param _var The enum value to convert
 * \returns _var converted to a std::string
 */
std::string enum2Str::toStr( BBB _var ) noexcept {
   switch ( _var ) {
      case VAL1: return "VAL1";
      case VAL2: return "VAL2";
      case VAL3: return "VAL3";
      default: return "<UNKNOWN>";
   }
}
}

更新:

脚本现在还支持作用域枚举(枚举类|struct)和 我将它与一些我经常使用的其他脚本一起移动到一个单独的repo: https://github.com/mensinda/cmakeBuildTools

Magic Enum头库为c++ 17的枚举(到字符串，从字符串，迭代)提供静态反射。

#include <magic_enum.hpp>

enum Color { RED = 2, BLUE = 4, GREEN = 8 };

Color color = Color::RED;
auto color_name = magic_enum::enum_name(color);
// color_name -> "RED"

std::string color_name{"GREEN"};
auto color = magic_enum::enum_cast<Color>(color_name)
if (color.has_value()) {
  // color.value() -> Color::GREEN
};

更多示例请查看home repository https://github.com/Neargye/magic_enum。

缺点在哪里?

这个库使用了一个特定于编译器的hack(基于__PRETTY_FUNCTION__ / __FUNCSIG__)，它在Clang >= 5, MSVC >= 15.3和GCC >= 9上工作。

枚举值必须在范围[MAGIC_ENUM_RANGE_MIN, MAGIC_ENUM_RANGE_MAX]内。

By default MAGIC_ENUM_RANGE_MIN = -128, MAGIC_ENUM_RANGE_MAX = 128. If need another range for all enum types by default, redefine the macro MAGIC_ENUM_RANGE_MIN and MAGIC_ENUM_RANGE_MAX. MAGIC_ENUM_RANGE_MIN must be less or equals than 0 and must be greater than INT16_MIN. MAGIC_ENUM_RANGE_MAX must be greater than 0 and must be less than INT16_MAX. If need another range for specific enum type, add specialization enum_range for necessary enum type. #include <magic_enum.hpp> enum number { one = 100, two = 200, three = 300 }; namespace magic_enum { template <> struct enum_range<number> { static constexpr int min = 100; static constexpr int max = 300; }; }
