[ENHANCEMENT]: Provide helper function cuco::experimental::make_static_set et al #370
Comments
This is no longer true as of C++17 with "Class Template Argument Deduction" (CTAD). CTAD has all but made |
Yes, the error you are seeing is due to us struggling with getting CTAD right 🙃 |
There are a few things in my mind to improve the situation. Wait for my PR(s) |
I can test it very easily if you need. Let me know. |
https://godbolt.org/z/4Y4WYfxcK @esoha-nvidia actually, your example would deduce just fine even with the current implementation. Any other examples you would like to make them work? |
Updates: now with #346 being merged. Plain integers can be deduced as well. |
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like a function called
make_static_set
that will create a static set that will infer the template arguments from the function call.Describe the solution you'd like
Instead of:
I could write:
Notice how it's much smaller and I'm not repeating myself. Notice the addition of the work "make". This is consistent with the stdlib's usage of the word make in, for example,
std::make_tuple
Describe alternatives you've considered
I can do without but its wordy. Doing this doesn't add much work for cuco. Cuco can modify some of its tests to use this form of the instantiation so that it is tested well in CI.
Additional context
Inference only works on functions, not classes: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/797594/when-a-compiler-can-infer-a-template-parameter
Here's how
make_tuple
works: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/tuple/make_tupleThe text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
