C++模板编程——typelist的实现

文章最后给出了汇总的代码，可直接运行

1. typelist是什么

typelist是一种用来操作类型的容器。和我们所熟知的vector、list、deque类似，只不过typelist存储的不是变量，而是类型。

typelist简单来说就是一个类型容器，能够提供一系列的操作。

本文将展示使用元编程实现typelist。

2. 要实现的typelist的接口

在此列举一下即将要编写的typelist的所有接口：

typelist：要实现的容器类型。

front<typelist>：获取容器中的第一个元素。

size<typelist>：获取容器的元素数量。

pop_front<typelist, elem>：移出第一个元素。

push_front<typelist, elem>：向开头插入一个元素。

push_back<typelist, elem>：向结尾插入一个元素。

replace_front<typelist, elem>：替换第一个元素。

is_empty<typelist>：判断是否为空。

find<typelist, index>：查找下标为index的元素。

get_maxsize_type<typelist>：容器中尺寸（sizeof）最大的元素。

reverse<typelist>：翻转容器中的元素。

3. 接口实现

3.1 容器

cpp 复制代码

template<typename... Elems>
struct typelist{};

3.2 front<typelist>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT>// typelist的简写
struct front;

struct front<typelist<FirstElem, OtherElems...>>
{
    using type = FirstElem;
};

3.3 size<typelist>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT>
struct size;

template<typename... Elems>
struct size<typelist<Elems...>>
{
    static inline const value = sizeof...(Elems);
};

3.4 pop_front<typelist, elem>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT>
struct pop_front;

template<typename FirstElem, typename... OtherElems>
struct pop_front<typelist<FirstElem, OtherElems...>
{
    using type = typelist<OtherrElems...>;
};

3.5 push_front<typelist, elem>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT, typename newElem>
struct push_front;

template<typename... Elems, typename newElem>
struct push_front<typelist<Elems...>, newElem>
{
    using type = typelist<newElem, Elems...>;
};

3.6 push_back<typelist, elem>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT, typename newElem>
struct push_back;

template<typename... Elems, typename newElem>
struct push_back<typelist<Elems...>, newElem>
{
    using type = typelist<Elems..., newElem>;
};

3.7 replace_front<TPLT, elem>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT, typename Elem>
struct replace_front;

template<typename FirstElem, typename... OtherElems, typename Elem>
struct replace_front<typelist<FirstElem, OtherElems...>, Elem>
{
    using type = typelist<Elem, OtherElems...>;
};

3.8 is_empty<TPLT>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT>
struct is_empty;

template<typename... Elems>
struct is_empty
{
    static inline const bool value = sizeof...(Elems) == 0;
};

3.9 find<typelist, index>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT, size_t index>
struct find : find<typename pop_front<TPLT>::type, index - 1>
{
	
};

template<typename TPLT>
struct find<TPLT, 0> :front<TPLT>
{
};

3.10 get_maxsize_type<typelist>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT>
struct get_maxsize_type
{
private:
	using FirstType = typename front<TPLT>::type;
	using RemainLT = typename pop_front<TPLT>::type;
	using RemainMaxType = typename get_maxsize_type<RemainLT>::type;
public:
	using type = conditional_t < (sizeof(FirstType) > sizeof(RemainMaxType)),
		FirstType, RemainMaxType >;
};

template<typename Elem>
struct get_maxsize_type<typelist<Elem>>
{
	using type = Elem;
};

template<>
struct get_maxsize_type<typelist<>>;

3.11 reverse<typelist>

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT>
struct reverse
{
private:
	using FirstElem = typename front<TPLT>::type;
	using RemainTL = typename pop_front<TPLT>::type;
	using ReversedRemainTL = typename reverse<RemainTL>::type;
public:
	using type = typename push_back<ReversedRemainTL, FirstElem>::type;
};


template<>
struct reverse<typelist<>>
{
	using type = typelist<>;
};

或

cpp 复制代码

template<typename TPLT, bool = is_empty<TPLT>::value>
struct reverse;

template<typename TPLT>
struct reverse<TPLT, false>
{
private:
	using FirstElem = typename front<TPLT>::type;
	using RemainTL = typename pop_front<TPLT>::type;
	using ReversedRemainTL = typename reverse<RemainTL>::type;
public:
	using type = typename push_back<ReversedRemainTL, FirstElem>::type;
};

template<typename TPLT>
struct reverse<TPLT, true>
{
	using type = typelist<>;
};
