This // software is provided "as is" without express or implied warranty, and // with no claim as to its suitability for any purpose. // // Intended as an alternative to type_traits::yes_type and type_traits::no_type. // Provides an arbitrary number of types (case_<0>, case_<1>, ...) for // determining the results of overload resultion using 'sizeof', plus a uniform // means of using the result. yes_type and no_type are typedefs for case_<1> // and case_<0>. A single case with negative argument, case_<-1>, is also // provided, for convenience. // // This header may be included any number of times, with // BOOST_SELECT_BY_SIZE_MAX_CASE defined to be the largest N such that case_ // is needed for a particular application. It defaults to 2. // // This header depends only on Boost.Config and Boost.Preprocessor. Dependence // on Type Traits or MPL was intentionally avoided, to leave open the // possibility that select_by_size could be used by these libraries. // // Example usage: // // #define BOOST_SELECT_BY_SIZE_MAX_CASE 7 // Needed for > 2 cases. // #include // // using namespace boost::utility; // // case_<0> helper(bool); // could use 'case_' or 'no_type'. // case_<1> helper(int); // could use 'case_' or' yes_type'. // case_<2> helper(unsigned); // case_<3> helper(long); // case_<4> helper(unsigned long); // case_<5> helper(float); // case_<6> helper(double); // case_<7> helper(const char*); // // struct test { // static const int value = // select_by_size< sizeof(helper(9876UL)) >::value; // BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT(value == 4); // }; // // For compilers with integral constant expression problems, e.g. Borland 5.x, // one can also write // // struct test { // BOOST_SELECT_BY_SIZE(int, value, helper(9876UL)); // }; // // to define a static integral constant 'value' equal to // // select_by_size< sizeof(helper(9876UL)) >::value. // // Include guards surround all contents of this header except for explicit // specializations of select_by_size for case_ with N > 2. #ifndef BOOST_UTILITY_SELECT_BY_SIZE_HPP_INCLUDED #define BOOST_UTILITY_SELECT_BY_SIZE_HPP_INCLUDED // The lowest N for which select_by_size< sizeof(case_) > has not been // specialized. #define SELECT_BY_SIZE_MAX_SPECIALIZED 2 #include // BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT. #include #include #include #include /* Alternative implementation using max_align. #include #include namespace boost { namespace utility { template struct case_ { char c[(N + 1) * alignment_of::value]; }; template struct select_by_size { BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT(int, value = (Size / alignment_of::value - 1)); }; } } // End namespaces utility, boost. */ // End alternate implementation. namespace boost { namespace utility { //--------------Definition of case_-------------------------------------------// template struct case_ { char c1; case_ c2; }; template<> struct case_<-1> { char c; }; typedef case_ yes_type; typedef case_ no_type; //--------------Declaration of select_by_size---------------------------------// template struct select_by_size; } } // End namespaces utility, boost. //--------------Definition of SELECT_BY_SIZE_SPEC-----------------------------// // Sepecializes select_by_size for sizeof(case).
