0.1 variable templates
*** Question 1 variable template
What is a variable template ?
S O L U T I O N O F Q U E S T I O N
A variable template is a declaration which is introduced by a template declaration of a variable. As we already know that a template declaration is also a definition if its declaration defines a function, a class, a variable, or a static data member.

A variable template at class scope is a static data member template .

Consider a simple template meta function, which uses variable template feature to store the boolean value of result of comparing two types:

template < typename T , typename U >
constexpr bool is_same = std :: is_same < T , U >:: value ;

bool t = is_same < int , int >; // true
bool f = is_same < int , float >; // false

The types of variable templates are not restricted to just built-in types; they can be user defined types.

struct matrix_constants
{
template < typename T >
using pauli = hermitian_matrix < T , 2>;

template < typename T >
constexpr pauli < T > sigma1 = { { 0, }, { 1, } };

template < typename T >
constexpr pauli < T > sigma2 = { { 0, - i }, { i , } };

template < typename T >
constexpr pauli < T > sigma3 = { { 1, }, { - 1, } };
};

It makes definitions and uses of parameterized constants much simpler, leading to simplified and more uniform programming rules to teach and to remember like:

template < typename T >
struct lexical_cast_fn
{
template < typename U >
T operator () ( U const & u ) const
{
// ...
}
};

template < typename T >
constexpr lexical_cast_fn < T > lexical_cast {};

int main ()
{
lexical_cast < int >( " " ) ;
}
0.2 Constexpr static data members of class templates
*** Question Constexpr static data members of class templates
What is issue with constexpr static data members of class templates ?
S O L U T I O N O F Q U E S T I O N
Let us revisit how std::is_same is designed:
template < typename T , T v >
struct integral_constant
{
static constexpr T value = v ;
typedef T value_type ;
....
};

template < typename T , T v >
constexpr T integral_constant < T , v >:: value ;

typedef integral_constant < bool , true > true_type ;
typedef integral_constant < bool , false > false_type ;

template < typename T , typename U >
struct is_same : false_type {};

template < typename T >
struct is_same < T , T > : true_type {};

The main problems with static data member are:

  • they require duplicate declarations:
    1. once inside the class template,
    2. once outside the class template to provide the real definition in case the constants is odr(One Definition Rule) used.
  • It creates confusion by the necessity of providing twice the same declaration, whereas ordinary constant declarations do not need duplicate declarations.

The standard class numeric_limits also suffers from the same problem as far as constexpr static data members are concerned.

0.3 constexpr function templates
*** Question 3 constexpr function templates
What is issue with constexpr function templates ?
S O L U T I O N O F Q U E S T I O N
Constexpr functions templates provide functional abstraction.

A simple constexpr function template :

template < typename T , typename U >
constexpr bool is_same ()
{
return std :: is_same < T , U >:: value ;
}

Constexpr functions templates do not have the duplicate declarations issue that static data members have.

However, they force us to chose in advance, at the definition site, how the constants are to be delivered: either by a const reference, or by plain non-reference type.

If delivered by const reference then the constants must be systematically be allocated in static storage.

If by non-reference type, then the constants need copying.

Copying isnt an issue for built-in types, but it is an issue for user-defined types with value semantics that arent just wrappers around tiny built-in types

Whereas ordinary const(expr) variables do not suffer from this problem. A simple definition is provided, and the decision of whether the constants actually needs to be layout out in storage only depends on the usage, not the definition.

Another examples are the static member functions of std::numeric_limits and functions like boost :: constants :: pi < T > () :

# include < boost / math / constants / constants . hpp >

template < class Real >
Real area ( Real r )
{
using namespace boost :: math :: constants ;
return pi < Real >() * r * r ;
}

The function template versions of the constants are simple inline functions that return a constant of the correct precision for the type used. In addition, these functions are declared constexpr for those compilers that support this, allowing the result to be used in constant expressions provided the template argument is a literal type.
