为Qt类解决此特定的C ++ Diamond问题

Question

I'm using QT's QQuickFramebufferObject class which inherits from QQuickItem in Qt library.

I have the following user-defined class:

class OpenGlBufferItem: public QQuickFramebufferObject

And I need my OpenGlBufferItem class to also derive from ReactItem . The problem is that ReactItem ultimately derives from QQuickItem too:

class ReactItem : public QQuickPaintedItem

because QQuickPaintedItem inherits from QQuickItem

So we have the following problem:

           QQuickItem
          /          \
         /            \
QQuickPaintedItem QQuickFramebufferObject
       /                \
   ReactItem        OpenGlBufferItem

What I need is

           QQuickItem
          /          \
         /            \
QQuickPaintedItem QQuickFramebufferObject
       /                \
   ReactItem            /
       \               /
        \             /
        OpenGlBufferItem

Normally, to solve diamond problems we'd simply declare some classes as virtually inheriting from others. However, I cannot declare the classes RectItem , QQuickPaintedItem , QQuickFrameBufferObject , because they are already given.

How should I proceed?

UPDATE:

If I simply tryo to do

class OpenGlBufferItem: public QQuickFramebufferObject, public ReactItem

I get these kind of errors:

Answer 1

This is not possible.

I was thinking about using the CRTP (Curiously Recurring Template Pattern), which could theorhetically be employed if you can modify one of the classes and can handle its restrictions. But it will not work in your case as ReactItem is not deriving directly from QQuickItem, but from QQuickPaintedItem.

Let's assume that was not the case:

ReactItem would need to be changed to look like this:

template <class T> class ReactItem : public T {/*...*/};

The class hiearchy would look like this:

         QQuickItem
        /           \
       /        QQuickFramebufferObject
      /               \
ReactItem<QQuickItem>  \
                        \
                   ReactItem<QQuickFramebufferObject>
                        /
               OpenGlBufferItem

The restrictions of this approach is, that the two ReactItem instantiations are unrelated types with regards to the type hierarchy. This means a lot of the code previously referring to ReactItem might needs to be changed.

This is quite easy to do for functions:

void f(ReactItem* item) { item->setVisible(true); }
// becomes
template<class T> void f(ReactItem<T>* item)  { item->setVisible(true); }

It is a lot trickier for templated data members like std::vector<ReactItem*> .
