(While adding a + * "sentinel" enumerator is trivial, it causes headaches with "switch" + * statements. We often try to write "switch" statements whose cases exhaust + * the enumerators and don't have a "default" case, so that if a new + * enumerator is added and we forget to handle it in the "switch", the + * compiler points it out. But this means we need to explicitly handle the + * sentinel in every "switch".) + * + * |aEnumerators| is expected to be a comma-separated list of enumerators, + * enclosed in parentheses. The enumerators may NOT have associated + * initializers (an attempt to have one will result in a compiler error). + * This ensures that the enumerator values are in the range [0, N), where N + * is the number of enumerators. + * + * The list of enumerators cannot contain a trailing comma. This is a + * limitation of MOZ_FOR_EACH, which we use in the implementation; if + * MOZ_FOR_EACH supported trailing commas, we could too. + * + * The generated constant has the name "k" + |aEnumName| + "Count", and type + * "size_t". The enumeration and the constant are both defined in the scope + * in which the macro is invoked. + * + * For convenience, a constant of the enumeration type named + * "kHighest" + |aEnumName| is also defined, whose value is the highest + * valid enumerator, assuming the enumerators have contiguous values starting + * from 0. + * + * Invocation of the macro may be followed by a semicolon, if one prefers a + * more declaration-like syntax. + * + * Example invocation: + * MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM(MyEnum, (Foo, Bar, Baz)); + * + * This expands to: + * enum MyEnum { Foo, Bar, Baz }; + * constexpr size_t kMyEnumCount = 3; + * constexpr MyEnum kHighestMyEnum = MyEnum(kMyEnumCount - 1); + * // some static_asserts to ensure the values are in the range [0, 3) + * + * The macro also has several variants: + * + * - A |_CLASS| variant, which generates an |enum class| instead of + * a plain enum. + * + * - A |_WITH_BASE| variant which generates an enum with a specified + * underlying ("base") type, which is provided as an additional + * argument in second position. + * + * - An |_AT_CLASS_SCOPE| variant, designed for enumerations defined + * at class scope. For these, the generated constants are static, + * and have names prefixed with "s" instead of "k" as per + * naming convention. + * + * (and combinations of these). + */ + +/* + * A helper macro for asserting that an enumerator does not have an initializer. + * + * The static_assert and the comparison are just scaffolding; the important + * part is forming the expression |aEnumName::aEnumeratorDecl|. + * + * If |aEnumeratorDecl| is just the enumerator name without an identifier, + * this expression compiles fine. However, if |aEnumeratorDecl| includes an + * initializer, as in |eEnumerator = initializer|, then this will fail to + * compile in expression context, since |eEnumerator| is not an lvalue. + * + * (The static_assert itself should always pass in the absence of the above + * error, since turning on a bit can only increase an integer value. It just + * provides a place to put the expression we want to form.) + */ + +#define MOZ_ASSERT_ENUMERATOR_HAS_NO_INITIALIZER(aEnumName, aEnumeratorDecl) \ + static_assert( \ + int(aEnumName::aEnumeratorDecl) <= \ + (int(aEnumName::aEnumeratorDecl) | 1), \ + "MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM does not allow enumerators to have initializers"); + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_IMPL(aEnumName, aClassSpec, aBaseSpec, aEnumerators) \ + enum aClassSpec aEnumName aBaseSpec{MOZ_UNWRAP_ARGS aEnumerators}; \ + constexpr size_t k##aEnumName##Count = MOZ_ARG_COUNT aEnumerators; \ + constexpr aEnumName kHighest##aEnumName = \ + aEnumName(k##aEnumName##Count - 1); \ + MOZ_FOR_EACH(MOZ_ASSERT_ENUMERATOR_HAS_NO_INITIALIZER, (aEnumName, ), \ + aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM(aEnumName, aEnumerators) \ + MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_IMPL(aEnumName, , , aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_WITH_BASE(aEnumName, aBaseName, aEnumerators) \ + MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_IMPL(aEnumName, , : aBaseName, aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_CLASS(aEnumName, aEnumerators) \ + MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_IMPL(aEnumName, class, , aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_CLASS_WITH_BASE(aEnumName, aBaseName, aEnumerators) \ + MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_IMPL(aEnumName, class, : aBaseName, aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_AT_CLASS_SCOPE_IMPL(aEnumName, aClassSpec, aBaseSpec, \ + aEnumerators) \ + enum aClassSpec aEnumName aBaseSpec{MOZ_UNWRAP_ARGS aEnumerators}; \ + constexpr static size_t s##aEnumName##Count = MOZ_ARG_COUNT aEnumerators; \ + constexpr static aEnumName sHighest##aEnumName = \ + aEnumName(s##aEnumName##Count - 1); \ + MOZ_FOR_EACH(MOZ_ASSERT_ENUMERATOR_HAS_NO_INITIALIZER, (aEnumName, ), \ + aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_AT_CLASS_SCOPE(aEnumName, aEnumerators) \ + MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_AT_CLASS_SCOPE_IMPL(aEnumName, , , aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_WITH_BASE_AT_CLASS_SCOPE(aEnumName, aBaseName, \ + aEnumerators) \ + MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_AT_CLASS_SCOPE_IMPL(aEnumName, , : aBaseName, aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_CLASS_AT_CLASS_SCOPE(aEnumName, aEnumerators) \ + MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_AT_CLASS_SCOPE_IMPL(aEnumName, class, , aEnumerators) + +#define MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_CLASS_WITH_BASE_AT_CLASS_SCOPE(aEnumName, aBaseName, \ + aEnumerators) \ + MOZ_DEFINE_ENUM_AT_CLASS_SCOPE_IMPL(aEnumName, class, \ + : aBaseName, aEnumerators) + +#endif // mozilla_DefineEnum_h |
