+ SafeBitField - type-safe class for bit fields.
+ SafeBitConst - type-safe class for bit constants.
+ SafeBitField is designed to be a [almost] drop-in replacement for integer flags and bit fields where individual bits are set and checked
+ using symbolic names for flags:
+
+ typedef unsigned long Labels_t;
+ Labels_t labels;
+ const Labels_t Label_A = 0x00000001;
+ const Labels_t Label_B = 0x00000002;
+ ...
+ labels |= Label_B;
+ if ( labels & Label_A ) { ... }
+
+ Such code offers no protection against mismatching bit constants and bit fields:
+
+ typedef unsigned long Kinds_t;
+ Kinds_t kinds;
+ const Kinds_t Kind_A = 0x00000004;
+ ...
+ if ( kinds & Label_A ) { ... } // Error but compiles
+
+ SafeBitField is a drop-in replacement which generates a unique type for each bit field. Bit fields of different types cannot be applied
+ to each other:
+
+ LOKI_BIT_FIELD( unsigned long ) Labels_t;
+ Labels_t labels;
+ LOKI_BIT_CONST( Labels_t, Label_A, 1 ); // 0x0001 - 1st bit is set
+ LOKI_BIT_CONST( Labels_t, Label_B, 2 ); // 0x0002 - 1st bit is set
+ ...
+ LOKI_BIT_FIELD( unsigned long ) Kinds_t;
+ Kinds_t kinds;
+ LOKI_BIT_CONST( Kinds_t, Kind_A, 3 ); // 0x0004 - 1st bit is set
+ ...
+ if ( kinds & Label_A ) { ... } // Does not compile
+
+ Several other kinds of bit field misuse are caught by safe bit fields:
+
+ if ( kinds & Kind_A == 0 ) { ... }
+ if ( kinds && Kind_A ) { ... }
+
+ There are few cases where drop-in replacement does not work:
+
+ 1. Operations involving bit fields and unnamed integers. Usually the integer in question is 0:
+
+ Labels_t labels = 0; // No longer compiles
+ if ( ( labels & Label_A ) == 0 ) { ... } // Also does not compile
+
+ The solution is to use named bit constants, including the one for 0:
+
+ LOKI_BIT_CONST( Labels_t, Label_None, 0 ); // 0x0000 - No bit is set
+ Labels_t labels = Label_None; // Or just Labels_t labels; - constructor initializes to 0
+ if ( ( labels & Label_A ) == Label_None ) { ... } // // Or just if ( labels & Label_A ) { ... }
+
+ 2. I/O and other operations which require integer variables and cannot be modified:
+
+ void write_to_db( unsigned int word );
+ Labels_t labels;
+ write_to_db( labels ); // No longer compiles
+
+ This problem is solved by reinterpreting the bit fields as an integer, the user is responsible for using the right
+ type of integer:
+
+ write_to_db( *((Labels_t::bit_word_t*)(&labels)) );
