Hi All,
I'm trying to print boolean values and after I searched the entire web,
I couldn't find anything that does this =/ The code that I ended up
using is as follows:
string boolString(Obje ct* obj_, size_t maxOutput_){
string string_;
for (size_t i=0; i<maxOutput_; i++){
if( sizeof(obj_->boolean(i)) == sizeof(bool) ){
if (obj_->boolean(i) == true)
string_ += "1";
else
string_ += "0";
}
}
return string_;
}
Is there any way to simplify this code? 12 2757

Why do you need to check the size? What does it give you?
if (obj_->boolean(i) == true)
string_ += "1";
else
string_ += "0";
This could be written
string_ += (obj_->boolean(i) ? '1' : '0');
which I find a bit simpler.
Also, consider that you call 'boolean' member twice here (once to
check the size and the other to actually get the value); if the
function has side effects, calling it twice may not be what you
want.

return string_;

I need to check the size because the function may not return a bool but
an integer for example.

Sometimes boolean() may return an integer, so doing a cast to a boolean
is not a good idea. This is the reason behind the check of the size of
whatever type boolean() returns. I thought that the sream can
automatically convert to 1 or 0 from a boolean as
stream_ += boolean(i);
but this is not the case. However, if I repeat the previous with an
integer, it works fine.

Consider that some locales do not have '1' or '0' as the default
for outputting a bool value. If the OP wanted '1' or '0', it should
probably be explicit.
And how is using a stringstream simpler (better) than, say,
for (size_t i=0; i<maxOutput_; i++)
string_ += (bool(obj_->boolean(i)) ? '1' : '0');
return string_;
?

I need to check the size because the function may not return a bool but
an integer for example.
And how do you know that a value is a bool just because it's the same size
as one?
Also, boolean() is your own function, so you should already know what its
return type is. It can't sometimes return a bool and other times return an
int. (Unless, I guess, if "boolean" isn't really a function member of obj_
at all, but is instead a function pointer which you assign elsewhere.)

but an integer for example.
So? An integer is convertible to bool. Besides, sizes of 'bool' and
'int' _can_ be the same. The check is no good. You need to check
'typeid' to be sure.

Well, this definitely will work for booleans. But, the object I'm
working on, would also be a container for other values (say double,
integers) in which case boolean representation is no longer useful
(forget about the name boolean(i), it could be anything, like
value(i)). Therefore, the cast that you're using is not useful
anymore.

If it's a function pointer, the return value type is part of the type
of that pointer. C++ is strict in that regard. You cannot have return
value types change arbitrarily during run-time.
