[英]Virtual functions and vector iterator
I'm having trouble with this specific piece of code: It seems like virtual functions don't work as I expected. 我在使用这段特定代码时遇到了麻烦:虚拟函数似乎无法正常工作。
#include <cstdio>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
class CPolygon
{
protected:
std::string name;
public:
CPolygon()
{
this->name = "Polygon";
}
virtual void Print()
{
printf("From CPolygon: %s\n", this->name.c_str());
}
};
class CRectangle: public CPolygon
{
public:
CRectangle()
{
this->name = "Rectangle";
}
virtual void Print()
{
printf("From CRectangle: %s\n", this->name.c_str());
}
};
class CTriangle: public CPolygon
{
public:
CTriangle()
{
this->name = "Triangle";
}
virtual void Print()
{
printf("From CTriangle: %s\n", this->name.c_str());
}
};
int main()
{
CRectangle rect;
CTriangle trgl;
std::vector< CPolygon > polygons;
polygons.push_back( rect );
polygons.push_back( trgl );
for (std::vector<CPolygon>::iterator it = polygons.begin() ; it != polygons.end(); ++it)
{
it->Print();
}
return 0;
}
I expected to see: 我希望看到:
From CRectangle: Rectangle
From CTriangle: Triangle
instead I get: 相反,我得到:
From CPolygon: Rectangle
From CPolygon: Triangle
Is this expected behavior? 这是预期的行为吗? How should I call Print() function to get output expected by me?
我该如何调用Print()函数来获得我期望的输出?

Yes, it is expected behavior. 是的,这是预期的行为。
The problem is that standard containers, including vector
, have value semantics : they store copies of the objects you pass to push_back()
. 问题是标准容器(包括
vector
)具有值语义 :它们存储传递给push_back()
的对象的副本 。 Polymorphism, on the other hand, is based on reference semantics - it requires references or pointers in order to work correctly. 另一方面,多态性基于引用语义 - 它需要引用或指针才能正常工作。
What happens in your case is that your CPolygon
object gets sliced , which is not what you want. 在你的情况下会发生的是你的
CPolygon
对象被切片 ,这不是你想要的。 You should store pointers (possibly smart pointers) in your vector rather than objects of type CPolygon
. 您应该在向量中存储指针 (可能是智能指针)而不是
CPolygon
类型的对象。
This is how you should rewrite your main()
function: 这是你应该重写
main()
函数的方法:
#include <memory> // For std::shared_ptr
int main()
{
std::vector< std::shared_ptr<CPolygon> > polygons;
polygons.push_back( std::make_shared<CRectangle>() );
polygons.push_back( std::make_shared<CTriangle>() );
for (auto it = polygons.begin() ; it != polygons.end(); ++it)
{
(*it)->Print();
}
return 0;
}
Here is a live example . 这是一个实例 。
