C ++ CRTP派生类对象切片

标签: c++ crtp object-slicing

我有基类帐户和派生类学生和教师。我在CRTP中实现读/写,这样我就不需要在每个类中编写函数。
奇怪的是,在read函数中有对象切片,*这在函数中使用,但在write函数中没有。

有人能解释这里发生了什么吗?以及如何解决它?

// Account.h
class Account {
public:
    Account();
    virtual void callMenu() = 0;
protected:
    int ID;
    // Some more data (Total of 148 bytes)
}

// AccountCRTP.h
template<class T>
class AccountCRTP : public Account {
public:
    // To prevent object slicing
    void callMenu() {
        T account;
        account.ID = this->ID;
        cout << "Account size: " << sizeof(account) << " bytes\n"; pause(); // 268 bytes
        if (account.readData())
            account.menu();
    }

    bool readData() {
        T account;

        cout << "Account size : " << sizeof(account) << " bytes\n"; pause(); // 268 bytes
        cout << "This size    : " << sizeof(*this) << " bytes\n"; pause();   // 148 bytes??? Why?

        while (reading data to account) {
            if (this->ID == account.ID) {
                *this = account; // Object slicing happens
                return true;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }

    bool writeData() {
        T temp;
        int position = 0l
        while (reading data to temp) {
            if (this->ID == account.ID)
                break;
            position++;
        }

        cout << "Account size : " << sizeof(temp) << " bytes\n"; pause();  // 268 bytes
        cout << "This size    : " << sizeof(*this) << " bytes\n"; pause(); // 148 bytes right?

        datafile.seekp(position * sizeof(T));

        // For unknown reason this also writes scores of the student
        // Object slicing didn't happen here. Why?
        datafile.write((char*)this, sizeof(T)); 
    }
private:
    // No additional data in this class (Still 148 bytes)
}

// Student.h
class Student :
    public AccountCRTP<Student>
{
public:
    void menu() {
        // Student menu
    }

private:
    // Some more 120 bytes of data (Total of 268 bytes)
}


// main.cpp
int main() {
    vector<unique_ptr<Account>> account;
    account.push_back(unique_ptr<Account>(new Student));
    account.push_back(unique_ptr<Account>(new Teacher));

    account[0]->callMenu();
}

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:1)

*this = account; // Object slicing happens

“对象切片发生”是的,而您正在丢失account

的任何特定属性(成员变量)

你真正需要的是

*static_cast<T*>(this) = account;

保留派生的T中的内容。

static_cast<T*>(this)技巧是使Static Polymorphism工作的类型安全的全部要点 所有可能的类型检查都将在编译时应用。

让我们在@Yakk's comment上提到的更多语法糖

template<typename T>
struct CRTPBase {
    T const& self() const { return *static_cast<T const*>(this); } 
    T& self() { return *static_cast<T*>(this); } 
};

然后该行成为

 self() = account;

对于这种情况,即使使用c预处理器宏似乎也是合适的:

#define DEFINE_CRTP_SELF(derived_param) \
     derived_param const& self() const { return *static_cast<derived_param const*>(this); } 
     derived_param& self() { return *static_cast<derived_param*>(this); } 

并使用它:

template<typename T>
class CRTP {
public:
    DEFINE_CRTP_SELF(T);
};

注意:如果你在运行时有一些奇怪的东西(来自void*指针左右),你就会陷入地狱。
