templates - c++ generic way to check a value in a range -


in maths there different kind of range: can open ( (a, b) ), close ( [a, b] ), left opened (a, b] ) or right opened ( [a, b) ).

want write template function in c++ (not 11) can easly manage these situation. i'm not confident meta-programming , templates.

want have this:

const int max = max, int min = min; int x = value; // check close range if ( is_in_range( x, min, max ) ) //...  if ( is_in_range( x, min, max, open) ) //... if ( is_in_range( x, min, max, left_open) ) //... if ( is_in_range( x, min, max, right_open) ) //... 

have suggest?

i've tryed cannot compile

enum { range_open, range_close, range_left_open, range_right_open };  namespace detail {      template < typename type >     inline bool check_open_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min )     {         return ( min < x ) && ( x < max );     }      template < typename type >     inline bool check_close_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min )     {         return ( min <= x ) && ( x <= max );     }      template < typename type >     inline bool check_left_open_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min )     {         return ( min < x ) && ( x <= max );     }      template < typename type >     inline bool check_right_open_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min )     {         return ( min <= x ) && ( x < max );     }   }  template < typename type, int range_open > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min );  template < typename type, range_open > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min ) {     return detail::check_open_range( x, min, max ); }  template < typename type, range_close > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min ) {     return detail::check_close_range( x, min, max ); }  template < typename type, check_left_open_range > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min ) {     return detail::check_left_open_range( x, min, max ); }  template < typename type, check_right_open_range > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min ) {     return detail::check_right_open_range( x, min, max ); } 

effectly more simple 4 overloaded functions

edit 2

namespace detail {      template < typename type >     inline bool check_open_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min )     {         return ( min < x ) && ( x < max );     }      template < typename type >     inline bool check_close_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min )     {         return ( min <= x ) && ( x <= max );     }      template < typename type >     inline bool check_left_open_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min )     {         return ( min < x ) && ( x <= max );     }      template < typename type >     inline bool check_right_open_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min )     {         return ( min <= x ) && ( x < max );     } }  struct range_open {}; struct range_close {}; struct left_open_range {}; struct right_open_range {};  template < typename type > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min) {     return detail::check_open_range( x, min, max ); }  template < typename type > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min, const range_open&) {     return detail::check_open_range( x, min, max ); }  template < typename type > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min, const range_close& ) {     return detail::check_close_range( x, min, max ); }  template < typename type > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min, const left_open_range& ) {     return detail::check_left_open_range( x, min, max ); }  template < typename type > inline bool check_range( const type& x, const type& max, const type& min, const right_open_range& ) {     return detail::check_right_open_range( x, min, max ); } 

think edit 2 right...

edit 3: version

struct left_open { template static bool compare (const t& value, const t& range) { return range < value; } };

struct left_close {     template <class t>     static bool compare (const t& value, const t& range) { return range <= value; } };  struct right_open  {     template <class t>     static bool compare (const t& value, const t& range) { return value < range; } };  struct right_close {     template <class t>     static bool compare (const t& value, const t& range) { return value <= range; } };   template <class l, class r, class t> bool check_range(const t& value, const t& min, const t& max) {     return l::compare <t> (value, min) && r::compare <t> (value, max); } 

here works on vs2010:-

class leftopen  { public:   template <class t>   static bool compare (const t value, const t range) { return value >= range; } };  class leftclosed { public:   template <class t>   static bool compare (const t value, const t range) { return value > range; } };  class rightopen  { public:   template <class t>   static bool compare (const t value, const t range) { return value <= range; } };  class rightclosed { public:   template <class t>   static bool compare (const t value, const t range) { return value < range; } };  template <class l, class r, class t> bool isinrange (t value, t min, t max) { return l::compare <t> (value, min) && r::compare <t> (value, max); }  int main() {   int     min = 5,     max = 99;    bool     r1 = isinrange <leftopen, rightopen> (-19, min, max),     r2 = isinrange <leftopen, rightopen> (45, min, max),     r3 = isinrange <leftopen, rightopen> (149, min, max); }
