queue<string&> errors

问题

I have this interesting situation.

I have a bunch of structs that hold a string.

struct foo
{
    string mStringName;
}
vector<foo> mFoos;

I also have a queue of string references

queue<string&> mStringQueue;

And finally, I have a function that accepts a const string&

void Bar(const string&);

Heres the situation.

//...in some loop
currentFoo = mFoos[index];

// Queue up the string name.
mStringQueue.push(currentFoo.mStringName);


//...Later on, go through our queue and pass each one to the function.

for (int queueIndex = 0; queueIndex < mStringQueue.size(); queueIndex++)
{
    Bar(mStringQueue.front());
    mStringQueue.pop();
}

This gives me the following compile error:

error C2664: 'std::queue<_Ty>::push' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'String' to 'String &(&)'

I'm definitley having trouble wrapping my mind around string references and whatnot, so any help would be greatly appreciated

回答1:

Reference types do not meet the requirements of types that can be used in standard containers. In particular they are not copyable. Note that while the referenced object can be copyable or not, the reference itself is never copyable.

The alternative is to store pointers, which are copyable.

回答2:

Standard containers require "T is copyable (strictly speaking, CopyConstructible)" or "T is movable (strictly speaking, MoveConstructible)". If you need reference element, you can use std::queue< std::reference_wrapper< T > >.

#include <cassert>
#include <queue>
#include <functional> // std::reference_wrapper, std::ref

int main()
{
    int a = 1;
    int b = 2;
    int c = 3;

    std::queue<std::reference_wrapper<int>> que;

    que.push(std::ref(a));
    que.push(std::ref(b));
    que.push(std::ref(c));

    while (!que.empty()) {
        que.front() += 1;
        que.pop();
    }

    assert(a == 2);
    assert(b == 3);
    assert(c == 4);
}
