你可以使用一个反射库，比如Ponder:

enum class MyEnum
{
    Zero = 0,
    One  = 1,
    Two  = 2
};

ponder::Enum::declare<MyEnum>()
    .value("Zero", MyEnum::Zero)
    .value("One",  MyEnum::One)
    .value("Two",  MyEnum::Two);

ponder::EnumObject zero(MyEnum::Zero);

zero.name(); // -> "Zero"

(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.

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。

我的答案在这里。

你可以同时获得枚举值名称和这些索引，如deque of string。

这种方法只需要少量的复制粘贴和编辑。

当需要枚举类类型值时，需要将获得的结果从size_t类型转换为枚举类类型，但我认为这是一种非常可移植和强大的处理枚举类的方法。

enum class myenum
{
  one = 0,
  two,
  three,
};

deque<string> ssplit(const string &_src, boost::regex &_re)
{
  boost::sregex_token_iterator it(_src.begin(), _src.end(), _re, -1);
  boost::sregex_token_iterator e;
  deque<string> tokens;
  while (it != e)
    tokens.push_back(*it++);
  return std::move(tokens);
}

int main()
{
  regex re(",");
  deque<string> tokens = ssplit("one,two,three", re);
  for (auto &t : tokens) cout << t << endl;
    getchar();
  return 0;
}

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。

#define ENUM_MAKE(TYPE, ...) \
        enum class TYPE {__VA_ARGS__};\
        struct Helper_ ## TYPE { \
            static const String& toName(TYPE type) {\

                {\

                    for (size_t i = 0; i < ssVec.size(); ++i)\
                        typeNameMap.insert(std::make_pair(ssVec[i], static_cast<TYPE>(i)));\
                }\

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:
