C++: How to force libc declarations into std::?

问题


So, I find myself in the need of libc in my C++ program. However, I do not like the idea of sprinkling it all over the global namespace. Ideally, I'd like to force the entirety of libc into the std:: namespace so I'd have to do std::memcpy rather than memcpy.

Is this possible? And how? I'm willing to use compiler-specific macros if needed (I target only MS VC++ 10.0 and GCC 4.6).

Edit: I do literally mean 'force the declarations into std' - so that they are uncallable without the std:: prefix. Also, I am including cstdio, not stdio.h.

Thanks!


回答1:


You cannot do this, unless it's already done.

The namespace std is reserved to the Standard Library, it is forbidden to add new members to this namespace. Therefore, if the C-headers are not already embedded within std, then you have no choice but to accept it.

On the other hand, you can perfectly create a new namespace, cstd, and bring the symbols from the global namespace in it with using directives... but it won't make them disappear from the global namespace.

You can't do this if your implementation exposes the names in the global namespace. You can use the <cXXX> headers and then use std:: yourself.

This is, perhaps, unfortunate, but it is a consequence of C compatibility, since C does not understand namespaces. C++ has traditionally maintained many kludges and sacrifices for C compatibility.

Make wrapper includes

//stdlib.hpp
namespace std
{
#include <stdlib.h> //edit: changed from cstdlib to stdlib.h
}

If the linker hates this try just declaring the functions you want:

namespace std{ extern "C" {

int memcpy( void *out, const void *in);
} }



回答4:


The reason some (most?) C++ compilers have the C functions in the global namespace, is simply that they have to use the existing operating system functions. For example, the file functions might not be a separate C library, but the file handling of the OS.
