我正在尝试实现一系列模板化对象,这些对象将通过非模板虚拟基类指针访问。简化后,基类如下:
class Base
{
public:
virtual void printThing(const int &thing) = 0;
virtual void printThing(const double &thing) = 0;
virtual void printThing(const bool &thing) = 0;
};
我想要做的是在下面的派生类实现中勾勒出来:
#include <iostream>
template <typename T>
class Derived : public Base
{
public:
void printThing(const T &thing);
template <typename U>
void printThing(const U &thing);
};
template <typename T>
void Derived<T>::printThing(const T &thing)
{
std::cout << "Derived same type " << thing << std::endl;
}
template <typename T>
template <typename U>
void Derived<T>::printThing(const U &thing)
{
std::cout << "Derived diff type " << thing << std::endl;
}
template <>
template <>
void Derived<double>::printThing(const int &thing)
{
std::cout << "Derived<double> specialized for int " << thing << std::endl;
}
这适用于任何类型的U - 只要代码直接在Derived实例上调用成员函数,并且U在编译时就已知。
但是当我尝试通过指向Base的指针访问Derived时出现编译器错误,如下面的测试程序所示:
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
Derived<int> dint;
Derived<double> ddouble;
Base * bint = &dint;
Base * bdouble = &ddouble;
double d = 3.14;
int i = 42;
bint->printThing(i);
bint->printThing(d);
bdouble->printThing(i);
bdouble->printThing(d);
return 0;
}
Mac OS 10.8.5上的clang ++给出了这样的反馈:
razor:playpen cfry$ clang++ template-specialization.cc

请注意,我已明确实现了Derived<double>::printThing(const int &)
,编译器声称该文件不存在。并且广义的Derived<T>::printThing(const U &)
成员函数似乎不会被实例化
是否有任何可移植的方式告诉编译器我打算为每个&#34;未实现的&#34;实例化广义模板成员函数。虚拟方法?
我尝试了很多替代方案,但到目前为止唯一有效的方法是给基类成员函数一个默认实现,并编写Derived的包装器,它明确地为所需的U类型实现printThing()。
答案 0 :(得分:2)
我使用奇怪的重复模板模式(CRTP)explained here by Eli Bendersky找到答案。
需要添加另一层模板类:
template <class Child>
class Adapter : public Base
{
public:
void printThing(const int &thing)
{
static_cast<Child *>(this)->printThingInternal(thing);
}
void printThing(const double &thing)
{
static_cast<Child *>(this)->printThingInternal(thing);
}
void printThing(const bool &thing)
{
static_cast<Child *>(this)->printThingInternal(thing);
}
};
template <typename T>
class Derived : public Adapter<Derived <T> >
{
public:
void printThingInternal(const T &thing);
template <typename U>
void printThingInternal(const U &thing);
};
通过这个添加,以及从Derived继承的简单更改,程序会安抚编译器,更好的是,生成我正在寻找的结果:
razor:playpen cfry$ clang++ template-specialization.cc
razor:playpen cfry$ ./a.out
Derived same type 42
Derived diff type 3.14
Derived<double> specialized for int 42
Derived same type 3.14
