How to prevent such code from compiling?
#include <vector>
#include <limits>
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdint>
int main() {
std::vector<int16_t> v;
v.emplace_back(std::numeric_limits<uint64_t>::max());
std::cout << v.back() << std::endl;
return 0;
}
g++ and clang with -std=c++14 -Wall -Wextra -Werror -pedantic -Wold-style-cast -Wconversion -Wsign-conversion
don't even warn about it. The example also compiles without warnings with std::vector<uint16_t>
回答1:
Add -Wsystem-headers
to the command line. Among the many spurious warnings you will find the desired warning.

I know this is not a real solution, although it technically answers the question.
The problem is, that emplace_back
forwards all the arguments, in this case the uint64_t
to the constructor of the contained type. First the argument to emplace_back
is deduced as uint64_t
. No conversion happens at the call of emplace back. The narrowing conversion then happens "inside" the emplace_back
implementation in the system header. The compiler does not know that this is the fault of the caller and suppresses the warning because it is in a system header.
回答2:
I solve this by templates and specialisation:
template<
typename T/*the desired type*/,
typename Y/*the source type*/
> T integral_cast(const Y& y)
{
static_assert(false, "undefined integral_cast");
}
which I then specialise at leisure if I want the cast to work:
// Pass through for uint32_t
template<>
inline std::uint32_t integral_cast(const uint32_t& y)
{
return y;
}
and
// Specialisation to convert std::uint32_t to double
template<>
inline double integral_cast(const std::uint32_t& y)
{
double ret = static_cast<double>(y); // this never loses precision under IEEE754
return ret;
}
At the point of use you write code of the form
int16_t y = integral_cast<int16_t>(std::numeric_limits<uint64_t>::max());

You could start writing a wrapper for your integral types to match the exact type (or some conditions).
#include <cstdint>
#include <iostream>
#include <limits>
#include <type_traits>
#include <vector>
template <class...> struct conjunction : std::true_type {};
template <class B1> struct conjunction<B1> : B1 {};
template <class B1, class... Bn>
struct conjunction<B1, Bn...>
: std::conditional_t<bool(B1::value), conjunction<Bn...>, B1> {};
template <typename T> struct int_wrapper {
explicit int_wrapper() : _val{T{}} {}
explicit int_wrapper(const int_wrapper &other) : _val{other._val} {}
template <typename U> explicit int_wrapper(U val) : _val{val} {
static_assert(sizeof(T) >= sizeof(U), "Size mismatch.");
static_assert(conjunction<std::is_signed<T>, std::is_signed<U>>::value,
"sign mismatch");
}
explicit operator T() { return _val; }
explicit operator T() const { return _val; }
T _val;
};
std::ostream &operator<<(std::ostream &stream, const int_wrapper<int16_t> &v) {
stream << v._val;
return stream;
}
int main() {
std::vector<int_wrapper<int16_t>> v;
v.emplace_back(std::numeric_limits<uint64_t>::max());
std::cout << v.back() << std::endl;
return 0;
}
clang on macOS gives you error like:
