(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 to 0 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 you can't get a negative enumerator value without having * an initializer somewhere. It just provides a place to put the expression * we want to form.) */ #define MOZ_ASSERT_ENUMERATOR_HAS_NO_INITIALIZER(aEnumName, aEnumeratorDecl) \ static_assert((aEnumName::aEnumeratorDecl) >= aEnumName(0), \ "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 k##Highest##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 s##Highest##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
