In the more standard formulation, the overloads // of Check would be: // // template <typename C> // Yes NotTheCheckWeWant(Helper<&C::TargetFunc>*); // // template <typename C> // No NotTheCheckWeWant(...); // // static const bool value = sizeof(NotTheCheckWeWant<T>(0)) == sizeof(Yes); // // The problem here is that template resolution will not match // C::TargetFunc if TargetFunc does not exist directly in C. That is, if // TargetFunc in inherited from an ancestor, &C::TargetFunc will not match, // |value| will be false. This formulation only checks for whether or // not TargetFunc exist directly in the class being introspected. // // To get around this, we play a dirty trick with multiple inheritance. // First, We create a class BaseMixin that declares each function that we // want to probe for. Then we create a class Base that inherits from both T // (the class we wish to probe) and BaseMixin. Note that the function // signature in BaseMixin does not need to match the signature of the function // we are probing for; thus it's easiest to just use void(void). // // Now, if TargetFunc exists somewhere in T, then &Base::TargetFunc has an // ambiguous resolution between BaseMixin and T. This lets us write the // following: // // template <typename C> // No GoodCheck(Helper<&C::TargetFunc>*); // // template <typename C> // Yes GoodCheck(...); // // static const bool value = sizeof(GoodCheck<Base>(0)) == sizeof(Yes); // // Notice here that the variadic version of GoodCheck() returns Yes here // instead of No like the previous one. Also notice that we calculate |value| // by specializing GoodCheck() on Base instead of T. // // We've reversed the roles of the variadic, and Helper overloads. // GoodCheck(Helper<&C::TargetFunc>*), when C = Base, fails to be a valid // substitution if T::TargetFunc exists. Thus GoodCheck<Base>(0) will resolve // to the variadic version if T has TargetFunc. If T::TargetFunc does not // exist, then &C::TargetFunc is not ambiguous, and the overload resolution // will prefer GoodCheck(Helper<&C::TargetFunc>*). // // This method of SFINAE will correctly probe for inherited names, but it cannot // typecheck those names. It's still a good enough sanity check though. // // Works on gcc-4.2, gcc-4.4, and Visual Studio 2008. // // TODO(ajwong): Move to ref_counted.h or template_util.h when we've vetted // this works well. template <typename T> class SupportsAddRefAndRelease { typedef char Yes[1]; typedef char No[2]; struct BaseMixin { void AddRef(); void Release(); }; // MSVC warns when you try to use Base if T has a private destructor, the // common pattern for refcounted types.
