Formatting user objects with libfmt

This repo shows an example how to use libfmt and manually configured static reflection to format user defined structures.

Essentially it provides template specializations for fmt::formatter that allow formatting of structs for which reflection information was setup via the reflection template.

Thanks to this blog which helped a lot :-)

Example:

struct Inner {...};
struct Outer {...};

template<>
struct reflection<Outer> {
    /*definition of class name and field names has to provided manually...*/
};

template<>
struct reflection<Inner> {
    /*definition of class name and field names has to provided manually...*/
};

auto outer = Outer{.a=1,.b="hello",.inner={.x=3.12,.y=" ",.z=2}};

std::string simple = fmt::format("{:s}", outer); // :s means format as simple
assert(simple == "a|hello|3.12| |2");

std::string  extended = fmt::format("{:e}",outer); // :e means format as extended
assert(extended == "Outer{.a=1, .b=hello, .inner=Inner{.x=3.12, .y= , .z=2}}");
