I don't have a lot of experience with templates but I am wondering if the following scenario is possible. Assume we have a class S with static member stat. I can get it to dynamically generate different code using typeid as:
template <class S> void foo() { if (typeid(S::stat) == typeid(AType)) implementation 1; else implementation 2; }
But since all information is known at compile time is it possible to create a specialization of foo for S::stat being of type Atype?
You're probably looking to do something like this:
template<typename T> class foo_impl {
public:
static void foo()
{
// This is your implementation 2
}
};
template<> class foo_impl<AType> {
public:
static void foo()
{
// This is your implementation 1
}
};
template <class S>
void foo()
{
foo_impl<typename S::Stat>::foo();
}
One common way of solving this problem is through tag dispatching. We can, at compile time, produce different types for whether or not S::stat
matches AType
- and use those types to call different overloads:
template <class S>
void foo() {
foo_impl(std::is_same<decltype(S::stat), AType>{});
}
void foo_impl(std::true_type /* S::stat matches AType */) {
// implementation 1
}
void foo_impl(std::false_type /* S::stat doesn't match AType */) {
// implementation 2
}
I was not able to utilize the decltype solution because my compiler does not support it.
I was able to utilize the foo_impl class solution but only when I declare MyClass as:
class MyClass { public: typedef AType Stat; static const Stat stat = VAL; ... }
