Info

• Did you know about C++17 variadic using declaration?

  • http://eel.is/c++draft/namespace.udecl#nt:using-declarator-list

Example

template<class... TEvents>
struct ihandler : ihandler<TEvents>... {
  virtual ~ihandler() noexcept = default;
  using ihandler<TEvents>::on...;
};

template<class TEvent> struct ihandler<TEvent> {
  virtual ~ihandler() noexcept = default;
  virtual auto on(const TEvent&) -> bool = 0;
};

int main() {
  struct foo {};
  struct bar {};

  struct handler : ihandler<foo, bar> {
    auto on(const foo&) -> bool override { return true; }
    auto on(const bar&) -> bool override { return false; }
  };

  std::unique_ptr<ihandler<foo, bar>> h = std::make_unique<handler>();
  assert(h->on(foo{}));
  assert(not h->on(bar{}));
}

Puzzle

• Can you implement handler which will implement an interface T for given Ts... and returns Ts::value?

template<class... TEvents>
struct ihandler : ihandler<TEvents>... {
  virtual ~ihandler() noexcept = default;
  using ihandler<TEvents>::on...;
};

template<class TEvent> struct ihandler<TEvent> {
  virtual ~ihandler() noexcept = default;
  virtual auto on(const TEvent&) -> bool = 0;
};

template<template<class...> class T, class... Ts>
struct handler final; // TODO

int main() {
  using namespace boost::ut;

  "handler"_test = [] {
    struct foo { bool value{}; };
    struct bar { bool value{}; };

    auto h = std::make_unique<handler<ihandler, foo, bar>>();

    expect(h->on(foo{.value = true}) and
           static_cast<ihandler<foo>*>(h.get())->on(foo{.value = true})
    );

    expect(not h->on(bar{.value = false}) and
           not static_cast<ihandler<bar>*>(h.get())->on(bar{.value = false})
    );
  };
}
