Is there a way for a method, which receives two functors as arguments, to find out if they are pointing to the same function? Specifically, having a struct like this:
struct FSMAction {
void action1() const { std::cout << "Action1 called." << std::endl; }
void action2() const { std::cout << "Action2 called." << std::endl; }
void action3() const { std::cout << "Action3 called." << std::endl; }
private:
// Maybe some object-specific stuff.
};
And a method like this:
bool actionsEqual(
const std::function<void(const FSMAction&)>& action1,
const std::function<void(const FSMAction&)>& action2)
{
// Some code.
}
Is there "some code" that will return true
only for:
actionsEqual(&FSMAction::action1, &FSMAction::action1)
But not for:
actionsEqual(&FSMAction::action1, &FSMAction::action2)
Maybe this question doesn't make any sense (first clue would be that there seems to be nothing on the internet about it...). If so, could you give a hint, why, and if there are ways to accomplish something "similar"? (Basically, I'd like to have a set of callbacks with only "unique" items in the above-outlined sense.)
A raw function is eventually a pointer. You can dig it out of std::function
with std::function::target
and then it's simply a comparison of void*
.
