背景

我正在写一个可移动的QScopedPointer;基本上std::unique_pointer有一些额外的访问者。我在访问兼容C ++ 11的编译器之前就已经开始了,但是现在我决心要把它弄好(即使我重新发明了轮子)。

问题

让我的智能指针MyUniquePointer

我需要知道类型U *是否可以通过T *转换为static_cast类型,具体为:

template<class T, class Cleanup>
class MyUniquePointer
{
...
template<class U, class CleanupU, class = std::enable_if_t<detail::is_safely_castable<U, T>()>
MyUniquePointer(MyUniquePointer<U, CleanupU> && other) noexcept
    : d(static_cast<T *>(other.release()))
{}
...

问题的前半部分

我的第一次尝试是在static_cast内使用enable_if,但您无法获取std::declval()的地址来获取static_cast的指针!

如果指向U的指针可以static_cast使用模板魔法指向T,是否有办法使用测试?

尝试的解决方法

基于cppreferencethis answer,我尝试创建模板测试,以便在static_cast合法时进行模拟,如果是向下转换,则安全。以下是我到目前为止所做的事情:

#include <iostream>
#include <type_traits>
template <class From, class To>
struct is_safely_castable //should probably be is_safely_castable_pointer or something
        : std::integral_constant<bool,
               std::is_pointer<From>() && std::is_pointer<To>()
            && ((std::is_base_of<To, From>()/* && std::has_virtual_destructor<From>()*/)
               || std::is_convertible<From, To>()
               || std::is_same<To,void *>()
               || std::is_same<From, void *>())>
{
};

struct base_type
{
    base_type() = default;
    base_type(base_type &&) = default;
    base_type(const base_type &) = default;
    virtual ~base_type() { }
    base_type &operator=(const base_type &) = default;
    base_type &operator=(base_type &&) = default;
};

struct derived_type : public base_type
{
};

struct unrelated_type
{
};

struct convertible_type
{
    convertible_type(const base_type *) {}
    convertible_type(base_type *) {}
    convertible_type() = default;

    operator base_type *() { return nullptr; }
};

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    (void)(argc);
    (void)(argv);

    base_type *b = new base_type;
    derived_type *d = new derived_type;
    unrelated_type *u = new unrelated_type;
    uint32_t *i32 = new uint32_t{1};
    uint64_t *i64 = new uint64_t{2};
    void *v = static_cast<derived_type *>(d);

    std::cout << std::boolalpha
        << "Base to base:        " << (bool)static_cast<base_type *>(b) << '\n'
        << "Base to derived:     " << (bool)static_cast<derived_type *>(b) << '\n'
        << "Derived to base:     " << (bool)static_cast<base_type *>(d) << '\n'
        << "Unrelated to base:   false\n" //<< static_cast<base_type *>(u) << '\n'
        << "uint32 to uint64:    false\n" //<< static_cast<uint64_t *>(i32) << '\n'
        << "uint64 to uint32:    false\n" //<< static_cast<uint32_t *>(i64) << '\n'
        << "Base to void:        " << (bool)static_cast<void *>(b) << '\n'
        << "Void to derived:     " << (bool)static_cast<derived_type *>(v) << '\n'
        << "Convertible to base: false\n" //<< static_cast<base_type *>(c) << '\n'
        << "Base to convertible: false\n";//<< static_cast<convertible_type *>(b) << '\n';


    std::cout << "-----------\n"
        << "Base to base:        " << is_safely_castable<base_type *, base_type *>() << '\n'
        << "Base to derived:     " << is_safely_castable<base_type *, derived_type *>() << '\n'
        << "Derived to base:     " << is_safely_castable<derived_type *, base_type *>() << '\n'
        << "Unrelated to base:   " << is_safely_castable<unrelated_type *, base_type *>() << '\n'
        << "uint32 to uint64:    " << is_safely_castable<uint32_t *, uint64_t *>() << '\n'
        << "uint64 to uint32:    " << is_safely_castable<uint64_t *, uint32_t *>() << '\n'
        << "Base to void:        " << is_safely_castable<base_type *, void *>() << '\n'
        << "Void to derived:     " << is_safely_castable<void *, derived_type *>() << '\n'
        << "Convertible to base: " << is_safely_castable<convertible_type *, base_type *>() << '\n'
        << "Base to convertible: " << is_safely_castable<base_type *, convertible_type *>() << '\n';

    delete b;
    delete d;
    delete u;
    delete i32;
    delete i64;
    return 0;
}

返回:

Base to base:        true
Base to derived:     true
Derived to base:     true
Unrelated to base:   false
uint32 to uint64:    false
uint64 to uint32:    false
Base to void:        true
Void to derived:     true
Convertible to base: false
Base to convertible: false
-----------
Base to base:        true
Base to derived:     false
Derived to base:     true
Unrelated to base:   false
uint32 to uint64:    false
uint64 to uint32:    false
Base to void:        true
Void to derived:     true
Convertible to base: false
Base to convertible: false

我的问题的后半部分是这个解决方法是否在正确的轨道上,更具体地说,如果|| std::is_convertible<From, To>()应该是 包括在内。传递后is_convertible是否可以返回true 指向类型的指针作为模板参数?上面的代码包括我自己的火腿尝试让它发挥作用。

脚注:我知道base_type *成功投射到derived_type *,但我不是编译器,也不能做出这样的假设。

答案 0 :(得分:3)

似乎你想要:

template <typename T, typename U, typename = void>
struct is_safely_castable : std::false_type {};

template <typename T, typename U>
struct is_safely_castable<T, U,
                          std::void_t<decltype(static_cast<U>(std::declval<T>()))>>
: std::true_type
{};
