Detailed Description

template<typename T>
struct bbm::string_converter< T >

forward decalaration

Default converter class; should be specialized. Has a fall through for types with reflection; if not it will throw a compile error when trying to call the static to/fromString methods.

Member Function Documentation

fromString()

static T fromString ( const std::string &  str )

inlinestatic

convert a string to a type T

If T has a constructor_args_t, then use this to convert from a string. Otherwise, if T supports reflection AND a trivial constructor, then use reflection to set the attributes. In both cases, if T meets concepts::named then the name must match the keyword. If T supports enumerate reflection, then use this.

Note: these cases are defined in the base case for string_converter such that they can be overwritten by type specific specializations.

toString()

static std::string toString ( const T &  obj )

inlinestatic

convert an object to a type T

If T support reflection, then convert the attributes to a string. If T also meets concepts::named, then prefix the name.
