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。

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

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

int main()

  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

只需要生成枚举。为此目的编写一个生成器大约需要5分钟的工作。

生成器代码在java和python，超级容易移植到任何你喜欢的语言，包括c++。

而且非常容易扩展任何你想要的功能。

示例输入:

First = 5
Second
Third = 7
Fourth
Fifth=11

生成头文件:

#include <iosfwd>

enum class Hallo
{
    First = 5,
    Second = 6,
    Third = 7,
    Fourth = 8,
    Fifth = 11
};

std::ostream & operator << (std::ostream &, const Hallo&);

生成的CPP文件

#include <ostream>

#include "Hallo.h"

std::ostream & operator << (std::ostream &out, const Hallo&value)
{
    switch(value)
    {
    case Hallo::First:
        out << "First";
        break;
    case Hallo::Second:
        out << "Second";

我不知道你是否会喜欢这个，我对这个解决方案不太满意，但它是一个c++ 14友好的方法，因为它使用模板变量和滥用模板专门化:

enum class MyEnum : std::uint_fast8_t {
   AAA,
   BBB,
   CCC,
};

template<MyEnum> const char MyEnumName[] = "Invalid MyEnum value";
template<> const char MyEnumName<MyEnum::AAA>[] = "AAA";
template<> const char MyEnumName<MyEnum::BBB>[] = "BBB";
template<> const char MyEnumName<MyEnum::CCC>[] = "CCC";

int main()
{
    // Prints "AAA"
    std::cout << MyEnumName<MyEnum::AAA> << '\n';
    // Prints "Invalid MyEnum value"
    std::cout << MyEnumName<static_cast<MyEnum>(0x12345678)> << '\n';
    // Well... in fact it prints "Invalid MyEnum value" for any value
    // different of MyEnum::AAA, MyEnum::BBB or MyEnum::CCC.

    return 0;
}

这种方法最糟糕的地方是维护起来很痛苦，但维护其他一些类似的方法也很痛苦，不是吗?

这种方法的优点:

使用可变温度(c++ 14特性) 使用模板专门化，我们可以在使用无效值时“检测”(但我不确定这是否有用)。 看起来很整洁。 名称查找在编译时完成。

生活的例子

Edit

你是对的;c++ 14变量模板方法不处理运行时情况，这是我的错，忘记了它:(

但是我们仍然可以使用一些现代c++特性和变量模板加上变进模板技巧来实现从枚举值到字符串的运行时转换…它和其他一样麻烦，但仍然值得一提。

让我们开始使用模板别名来缩短对枚举到字符串映射的访问:

// enum_map contains pairs of enum value and value string for each enum
// this shortcut allows us to use enum_map<whatever>.
template <typename ENUM>
using enum_map = std::map<ENUM, const std::string>;

// This variable template will create a map for each enum type which is
// instantiated with.
template <typename ENUM>
enum_map<ENUM> enum_values{};

然后，变值模板诡计:

template <typename ENUM>
void initialize() {}

template <typename ENUM, typename ... args>
void initialize(const ENUM value, const char *name, args ... tail)
{
    enum_values<ENUM>.emplace(value, name);
    initialize<ENUM>(tail ...);
}

这里的“最佳技巧”是为map使用变量template，其中包含每个枚举条目的值和名称;这个映射在每个翻译单元中都是相同的，并且到处都有相同的名称，所以非常简单明了，如果我们像这样调用initialize函数:

initialize
(
    MyEnum::AAA, "AAA",
    MyEnum::BBB, "BBB",
    MyEnum::CCC, "CCC"
);

我们正在为每个MyEnum条目签名，并且可以在运行时使用:

std::cout << enum_values<MyEnum>[MyEnum::AAA] << '\n';

但是可以通过SFINAE和重载<<运算符进行改进:

template<typename ENUM, class = typename std::enable_if<std::is_enum<ENUM>::value>::type>
std::ostream &operator <<(std::ostream &o, const ENUM value)
{
    static const std::string Unknown{std::string{typeid(ENUM).name()} + " unknown value"};
    auto found = enum_values<ENUM>.find(value);

    return o << (found == enum_values<ENUM>.end() ? Unknown : found->second);
}

使用正确的操作符<<，现在我们可以这样使用枚举:

std::cout << MyEnum::AAA << '\n';

维护这一点也很麻烦，可以改进，但希望您能理解。

生活的例子

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;
}

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。- - - - - -

我的解决方案是不使用宏。

优点:

你知道你在做什么 访问是通过哈希映射进行的，因此适用于许多有值枚举 不需要考虑顺序值或非连续值 既enum到字符串和字符串到enum转换，而添加的enum值必须添加在一个额外的地方

缺点:

您需要将所有枚举值复制为文本 哈希映射中的访问必须考虑字符串大小写 维护如果添加值是痛苦的-必须添加在enum和直接翻译映射

所以…直到c++实现c# Enum。解析功能，我将坚持这个:

            }

            void Enumerations::fnInvertValues(void)
