By using c++ 14 or c++11, do we have an elegant approach to do the following task? Number of members and type of operations are determined by the template input value 'count'
template<int count>
class show{
public:
run(){
if (count == 1){
int x;
} else if(count ==2){
int x, y;
}else if(count ==3){
int x, y, z;
}
if (count == 1){
printf("res: %d \n", x);
} else if(count ==2){
printf("res: %d \n", x+y);
}else if(count ==3){
printf("res: %d \n", x+y+z);
}
}
};
Update: can we use partial specialization or something related to the template in this case?
Yes, you can use specialization:
template<int count>
class show;
template<>
class show<1>{
int x;
public:
show(int _x):x{_x}{}
void run(){
std::cout << "val of x " << x << std::endl;
}
};
template<>
class show<2>{
int x,y;
public:
show(int _x, int _y):x{_x}, y{_y}{}
void run(){
std::cout << "add " << x+y << std::endl;
}
};
But you also can have it more generic:
template <int count>
class simply
{
std::array<int, count> arr;
public:
template < typename ... T >
simply( T ... in ): arr{ in... } {}
void run()
{
std::cout << [this](){ int sum=0; for( auto el: arr ){ sum+=el; } return sum; }() << std::endl;
}
};
To use all the stuff above:
int main() {
show<1> s1(10);
show<2> s2(100,200);
s1.run();
s2.run();
simply<4> si( 1,2,3,4 );
si.run();
}
Remarks:
You should add some more stuff to simply
to check that all parameters of type int with sfinae or static_assert
. But his is another question ...
