I want to enable a static member for a class without changing its scope. Consider the following abstracted example:
template<uint R, uint C>
class Foo
{
static Foo ID;
/* other members */
};
Now I want to use the static member like:
Foo<3, 3> foo = Foo<3, 3>::ID;
The problem is that the ID
field can only exist when R == C
.
(Foo
is actually a Matrix
and ID
its identity which only exists for square matrices)
So I have to conditionally enable the static ID
member when the condition is met. My current solution is something like this:
struct EmptyBase { };
template<uint R, uint C>
class _Foo_Square
{
static Foo<R, C> ID;
};
template<uint R, uint C>
class Foo : public std::conditional<R == C, _Foo_Square<R, C>, EmptyBase>::type
{
/* other members */
};
But now I cannot write Foo<3, 3>::ID
to access it. I have to write _Foo_Square<3, 3>::ID
.
Unfortunately the design of my application forces it to be accessible by the Foo
class scope. If it wasn't a conditional member I could write using _Foo_Square<3, 3>::ID;
in the Foo class.
Is there a solution to this problem?
