I am trying to iterate over a C++ template structure thanks to BOOST_FUSION_ADAPT_TPL_STRUCT. My structure contains fixed-size multidimensional arrays whose sizes are template parameters. If we consider Boost's example modified to fit my problem:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <boost/fusion/adapted/struct/adapt_struct.hpp>
#include <boost/fusion/include/adapt_struct.hpp>
// Example:
// http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_53_0/libs/fusion/doc/html/fusion/adapted/adapt_tpl_struct.html
namespace demo
{
template<typename T, unsigned int SIZE1, unsigned int SIZE2, typename Name, typename Age>
struct employee
{
Name name;
Age age;
T ar[SIZE1][SIZE2];
};
}
// Any instantiated demo::employee is now a Fusion sequence
BOOST_FUSION_ADAPT_TPL_STRUCT(
(T)(SIZE1)(SIZE2)(Name)(Age),
(demo::employee) (T)(SIZE1)(SIZE2)(Name)(Age),
(Name, name)
(Age, age)
(T, ar[SIZE1][SIZE2]))
int main()
{
demo::employee<float, 2, 2, std::string, int> e;
e.name = "Bob";
e.age = 25;
e.ar[0][0] = e.ar[1][0] = 0.1;
e.ar[0][1] = e.ar[1][1] = 0.2;
}
The compilation fails. Moreover, it also fails if we only add an integer template parameter without even using it for the array size.
Is that even possible with BOOST_FUSION_ADAPT_TPL_STRUCT
? If not, how should I go about this?
From doc:
The sequence (template_param0)(template_param1)... declares the names of the template type parameters used.
While you have non-type template parameter SIZE
:
template<typename T, unsigned int SIZE, typename Name, typename Age>
struct employee
You may convert it to type template parameter and use boost::mpl::int_
as wrapper for carry size.
Now, your code is compiled.
template<int Size>
struct Array
{
template<typename T>
struct Of
{
typedef T type[Size];
};
};
namespace demo
{
template<typename T, typename SIZE, typename Name, typename Age>
struct employee
{
Name name;
Age age;
T ar[SIZE::value];
};
}
// Any instantiated demo::employee is now a Fusion sequence
BOOST_FUSION_ADAPT_TPL_STRUCT(
(T)(SIZE)(Name)(Age),
(demo::employee) (T)(SIZE)(Name)(Age),
(Name, name)
(Age, age)
(typename Array<SIZE::value>::template Of<T>::type, ar))
//...
demo::employee<float, int_<2>, std::string, int> e;
After a long talk with Evgeny Panasyuk, I ended up doing something a bit different. Since I wanted to be able to do some simple arithmetic operations on the data structures, I decided to use Eigen::Map
rather than Boost::multi_array
since it offers a wide range of operators as well as a clear documentation.
Thus, the higher-level loop is handled by boost::fusion::for_each
and the lower-level loops are handled by Eigen. The arrays are mapped linearly to Eigen vectors. The sizes are passed in data_eigen
's constructor.

data_eigen(data<T,SIZE1,SIZE2>& src)
