Class template type_safe::flag_set_traits

template <typename Enum>
struct flag_set_traits
: 'hidden'
{
    static constexpr std::size_t size() noexcept;
};

Traits for the enum used in a ts::flag_set.

For each enum that should be used with ts::flag_set it must provide the following interface:

The default specialization automatically works for enums that have an enumerator _flag_set_size, whose value is the number of enumerators. But you can also specialize the traits for your own enums. Enums which work with ts::flag_set are called flags.

Requires: For all specializations the enum must be contiguous starting at 0, simply don't set an explicit value to the enumerators.

Struct type_safe::noflag_t

struct noflag_t
{
    constexpr noflag_t();
};

Tag type to mark a ts::flag_set without any flags set.

Variable type_safe::noflag

constexpr noflag_t noflag;

Tag object of type ts::noflag_t.

Alias template type_safe::flag_combo

template <typename Enum>
using flag_combo = 'hidden';

Represents a combination of multiple flags.

This type is created when you write a | b, where a and b are enumerators of a flag.

Objects of this type and the flags themselves are flag combinations. You can compare two flag combinations, combine two with | and use them in ts::flag_set to set or toggle a combination of flags. Creating the complement with ~ will create a ts::flag_mask.

Requires: Enum must be a flag, i.e. valid with the ts::flag_set_traits.

Alias template type_safe::flag_mask

template <typename Enum>
using flag_mask = 'hidden';

Represents a mask of flags.

This type is created when you write ~a, where a is the enumerator of a flag.

Objects of this type are flag masks. You can compare two flag masks, combine them with & and use them in ts::flag_set to clear a combination of flags. Creating the complement with ~ will create a ts::flag_combo.

Requires: Enum must be a flag, i.e. valid with the ts::flag_set_traits.

Function template type_safe::combo

template <typename Enum>
constexpr flag_combo<Enum> combo(const flag_mask<Enum>& mask) noexcept;

Converts a flag mask to a flag combination.

Returns: The flag combination with the same value as the mask.

Notes: As you cannot use a mask to set flags in a ts::flag_set, you cannot write ~a to set all flags except a directly, you have to be explicit.

Function template type_safe::mask

(1)  template <typename Enum>
     constexpr flag_mask<Enum> mask(const Enum& flag) noexcept;

(2)  template <typename Enum>
     constexpr flag_mask<Enum> mask(const flag_combo<Enum>& combo) noexcept;

Converts a flag combination to a flag mask.

Returns: The flag mask with the same value as the flag combination.

Notes: (1) does not participate in overload resolution, unless the argument is a flagg.

Notes: As you cannot use a combination to clear flags in a ts::flag_set, you cannot write a to clear all flags except a directly, you have to be explicit.

Class template type_safe::flag_set

template <typename Enum>
class flag_set
{
public:
    constexpr flag_set() noexcept;
    constexpr flag_set(noflag_t) noexcept;
    
    template <typename FlagCombo, typename = detail::enable_flag_combo<FlagCombo, Enum>>

    flag_set& operator^=(const FlagCombo& other) noexcept;
    
    flag_set& operator&=(const flag_mask<Enum>& other) noexcept;
};

A set of flags where each one can either be 0 or 1.

Each enumeration member represents the index of one bit.

Unlike ts::flag_combo or ts::flag_mask this does not have this semantic distinction. It is just a generic container of flags, which can be set, cleared or toggled. It can be interpreted as either a flag combination or flag mask, however.

Requires: Enum must be a flag, i.e. valid with the ts::flag_set_traits.

Default constructor type_safe::flag_set::flag_set
