我采用了@antron的想法，并以不同的方式实现:生成一个真正的枚举类。

这个实现满足了最初问题中列出的所有要求，但目前只有一个真正的限制:它假设枚举值要么没有提供，要么如果提供了，必须从0开始，并且无间隙地按顺序递增。

这并不是一个内在的限制——只是我不使用特别的enum值。如果需要，可以用传统的开关/案例实现替换向量查找。

解决方案使用一些c++17作为内联变量，但如果需要，这可以很容易地避免。因为简单，它还使用boost:trim。

最重要的是，它只需要30行代码，而且没有黑魔法宏。 代码如下。它的意思是放在头和包括在多个编译模块。

它可以使用与本文前面建议的相同的方式:

ENUM(Channel, int, Red, Green = 1, Blue)
std::out << "My name is " << Channel::Green;
//prints My name is Green

请让我知道这是有用的，以及如何进一步改进。

#include <boost/algorithm/string.hpp>   
struct EnumSupportBase {
  static std::vector<std::string> split(const std::string s, char delim) {
    std::stringstream ss(s);
    std::string item;
    std::vector<std::string> tokens;
    while (std::getline(ss, item, delim)) {
        auto pos = item.find_first_of ('=');
        if (pos != std::string::npos)
            item.erase (pos);
        boost::trim (item);
        tokens.push_back(item);
    }
    return tokens;
  }
};
#define ENUM(EnumName, Underlying, ...) \
    enum class EnumName : Underlying { __VA_ARGS__, _count }; \
    struct EnumName ## Support : EnumSupportBase { \
        static inline std::vector<std::string> _token_names = split(#__VA_ARGS__, ','); \
        static constexpr const char* get_name(EnumName enum_value) { \
            int index = (int)enum_value; \
            if (index >= (int)EnumName::_count || index < 0) \
               return "???"; \
            else \
               return _token_names[index].c_str(); \
        } \
    }; \
    inline std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& os, const EnumName & es) { \
        return os << EnumName##Support::get_name(es); \
    } 

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){\

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

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

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。- - - - - -

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";
        break;
    case Hallo::Third:
        out << "Third";
        break;
    case Hallo::Fourth:
        out << "Fourth";
        break;
    case Hallo::Fifth:
        out << "Fifth";
        break;
    default:
        out << "<unknown>";
    }

    return out;
}

生成器以非常简洁的形式作为移植和扩展的模板。这个示例代码确实试图避免覆盖任何文件，但使用它仍然要自担风险。

    codeWriter.write("\n")
finally:
    headerWriter.close()
    codeWriter.close()

我的解决方案，使用预处理器定义。

#include <iostream>
#include <stdexcept>
#include <regex>

typedef std::string String;
using namespace std::literals::string_literals;

    static String TrimStart(const std::string& data)
    {
        String s = data;
        s.erase(s.begin(), std::find_if(s.begin(), s.end(), [](unsigned char ch) {
            return !std::isspace(ch);
        }));
        return s;
    }

    static String TrimEnd(const std::string& data)
    {
        String s = data;
        s.erase(std::find_if(s.rbegin(), s.rend(), [](unsigned char ch) {
            return !std::isspace(ch);
        }).base(),
            s.end());
        return s;
    }

    static String Trim(const std::string& data)
    {
        return TrimEnd(TrimStart(data));
    }

    static String Replace(const String& data, const String& toFind, const String& toReplace)
    {

}

#define nameof(name) Nameof(u8## #name ## s)
#define cnameof(name) Nameof(u8## #name ## s).c_str()

enum TokenType {
    COMMA,
    PERIOD,
    Q_MARK
};

struct MyClass

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

int main() {
    String greetings = u8"Hello"s;
    std::cout << nameof(COMMA) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(TokenType::PERIOD) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(TokenType::Q_MARK) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(int) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(std::string) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(Strings) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(String) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(greetings) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(&greetings) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(greetings.c_str) << std::endl;

    std::cout << nameof(MyClass::MyEnum::AAA) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(MyClass::MyEnum::BBB) << std::endl;
    std::cout << nameof(MyClass::MyEnum::CCC) << std::endl;


    std::cin.get();

输出

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
