The Art of C++ / Tuple
The Art of C++ / Tuple is a C++11 header-only reference implementation of
std::tuple
.
Rationale
Why another implementation of std::tuple
? To provide a proof-of-concept that,
when avoiding recursion, code can benefit in significant ways. I prepared a talk
about it, including some benchmarks.
TL;DR: GCC 5 on Linux with libstdc++'s std::tuple
requires 19.6s and an instantiation
depth of at least 3.719 to compile an
example
generating a tuple with 265 elements via std::tuple_cat
.
tao::tuple
requires 1.2s and an instantiation depth of 26 on the same system.
Apple LLVM 7.0 (~Clang 3.7) with libc++'s std::tuple
requires 70s and an instantiation
depth of 514 to compile the example. tao::tuple
requires 1.7s and an instantiation depth
of 15 on the same system.
Compatibility
- Requires C++11 or newer.
- Tested with GCC 4.8+ and Clang 3.4+.
