# USRefl
> **U**bpa **S**tatic **R**eflection
Header-only, tiny (99 lines) and powerful C++20 static reflection library.
## Feature
- **header-only**, **tiny (99 lines)** and **powerful** ([USRefl_99.h](include/USRefl_99.h) (MSVC & GCC), [USRefl_99_clang.h](include/USRefl_99_clang.h) (Clang))
- **noninvasive**
- basic
- (non-static / static) member variable
- (non-static / static) member function
- **attribute**
- **enum**
- string <-> enumerator
- static dispatch
- **template**
- **inheritance**
- diamond inheritance
- iterate bases recursively
- virtual inheritance
- **parser**
## How to use
> run it online : [**compiler explorer**](https://godbolt.org/z/oWM8bf)
Suppose you need to reflect `struct Vec`
```c++
struct Vec {
float x;
float y;
float norm() const { return std::sqrt(x*x + y*y); }
};
```
### Manual registration
```c++
template<>
struct Ubpa::USRefl::TypeInfo :
TypeInfoBase
{
static constexpr AttrList attrs = {};
static constexpr FieldList fields = {
Field {TSTR("x") , &Type::x },
Field {TSTR("y") , &Type::y },
Field {TSTR("norm"), &Type::norm},
};
};
```
> if you use 99-lines version, you need to add a line
>
> ```c++
> static constexpr std::string_view name = "...";
> ```
## Iterate over members
```c++
TypeInfo::fields.ForEach([](const auto& field) {
std::cout << field.name << std::endl;
});
```
### Set/get variables
```c++
std::invoke(TypeInfo::fields.Find(TSTR("y")).value, v) = 4.f;
std::invoke(TypeInfo::fields.Find(TSTR("x")).value, v) = 3.f;
std::cout
<< "x: "
<< std::invoke(TypeInfo::fields.Find(TSTR("x")).value, v)
<< std::endl;
```
### Invoke Methods
```c++
std::cout
<< "norm: "
<< std::invoke(TypeInfo::fields.Find(TSTR("norm")).value, v)
<< std::endl;
```
### Iterate over variables
```c++
TypeInfo::ForEachVarOf(v, [](const auto& field, const auto& var) {
std::cout << field.name << ": " << var << std::endl;
});
```
### other example
- 99 line: [USRefl_99.h](include/USRefl_99.h), [test](src/test/06_99/main.cpp), [**online**](https://godbolt.org/z/ecKvx3) (test all examples below)
- [template](src/test/01_template/main.cpp)
- [static](src/test/02_static/main.cpp)
- [func](src/test/03_func/main.cpp)
- [enum](src/test/04_enum/main.cpp)
- [inheritance](src/test/05_inheritance/main.cpp)
- [virtual inheritance](src/test/07_virtual/main.cpp)
- [attribute name as type](src/test/10_type_attr/main.cpp)
- AutoRefl : [app](src/AutoRefl), [example](src/test/09_AutoRefl/00_basic) ([Vec.h](src/test/09_AutoRefl/00_basic/Vec.h), Vec_AutoRefl.inl (generated by AutoRefl), [main.cpp](src/test/09_AutoRefl/00_basic/main.cpp))
## Integration
You can choose one of the following two methods
- ⭐ **method 0**: add the required file
- MSVC and GCC: [USRefl_99.h](include/USRefl_99.h)
- Clang : [USRefl_99_clang.h](include/USRefl_99_clang.h)
- ⭐ **method 1**: cmake install, use `find package(USRefl REQUIRED)` to get imported target `Ubpa::USRefl_core`
## Compiler compatibility
- Clang/LLVM >= 10
- GCC >= 10
- MSVC >= 1926 (not fully support virtual inheritance because of [a MSVC bug](https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/1116835/member-pointer-of-a-class-with-a-virtual-base-1.html))
