template <class FormatString, class T1, ..., class Tn>
int printf(T1 a1, ..., Tn an);Wrapper of the printf function of the C library. It takes the format string as a compile-time string, which is an boost::metaparse::string. It type-checks the arguments based on the format string. When type-checking fails, this function emits a compilation error. When type-checking succeeds, this function calls the printf function of the C library. This thin wrapper is likely to be inlined in which case it has no runtime overhead compared to using printf without type-checking.
#include <mpllibs/safe_printf/printf.hpp>For any s boost::metaparse::string and a1 ... an runtime objects:
mpllibs::safe_printf::printf<s>(a1, ..., an)When the number and types of a1 ... an are correct according to s, the format string, it is equivalent to
std::printf(boost::mpl::c_str<s>::type::value, a1, ..., an)otherwise it is a compilation error.
