从Dacav和pixelpoint的答案中获得灵感。我玩了一下，得到了这个:

#include <cstdarg>
#include <cstdio>
#include <string>

std::string format(const char* fmt, ...)
{
    va_list vl;

    va_start(vl, fmt);
    int size = vsnprintf(0, 0, fmt, vl) + sizeof('\0');
    va_end(vl);

    char buffer[size];

    va_start(vl, fmt);
    size = vsnprintf(buffer, size, fmt, vl);
    va_end(vl);

    return std::string(buffer, size);
}

通过合理的编程实践，我相信代码应该足够了，但是我仍然对更安全的替代方案持开放态度，这些替代方案仍然足够简单，不需要c++ 11。

下面是另一个版本，它使用初始缓冲区来防止在初始缓冲区已经足够多时再次调用vsnprintf()。

std::string format(const char* fmt, ...)
{

    va_list vl;
    int size;

    enum { INITIAL_BUFFER_SIZE = 512 };

    {
        char buffer[INITIAL_BUFFER_SIZE];

        va_start(vl, fmt);
        size = vsnprintf(buffer, INITIAL_BUFFER_SIZE, fmt, vl);
        va_end(vl);

        if (size < INITIAL_BUFFER_SIZE)
            return std::string(buffer, size);
    }

    size += sizeof('\0');

    char buffer[size];

    va_start(vl, fmt);
    size = vsnprintf(buffer, size, fmt, vl);
    va_end(vl);

    return std::string(buffer, size);
}

(事实证明，这个版本与Piti Ongmongkolkul的答案相似，只是它没有使用new和delete[]，并且在创建std::string时指定了大小。

The idea here of not using new and delete[] is to imply usage of the stack over the heap since it doesn't need to call allocation and deallocation functions, however if not properly used, it could be dangerous to buffer overflows in some (perhaps old, or perhaps just vulnerable) systems. If this is a concern, I highly suggest using new and delete[] instead. Note that the only concern here is about the allocations as vsnprintf() is already called with limits, so specifying a limit based on the size allocated on the second buffer would also prevent those.)

我通常用这个:

std::string myformat(const char *const fmt, ...)
{
        char *buffer = NULL;
        va_list ap;

        va_start(ap, fmt);
        (void)vasprintf(&buffer, fmt, ap);
        va_end(ap);

        std::string result = buffer;
        free(buffer);

        return result;
}

缺点:并非所有系统都支持vasprint

我试了一下，用正则表达式。我为int和const字符串实现了它作为一个例子，但你可以添加任何其他类型(POD类型，但有指针，你可以打印任何东西)。

#include <assert.h>
#include <cstdarg>

#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#include <regex>

static std::string
formatArg(std::string argDescr, va_list args) {
    std::stringstream ss;
    if (argDescr == "i") {
        int val = va_arg(args, int);
        ss << val;
        return ss.str();
    }
    if (argDescr == "s") {
        const char *val = va_arg(args, const char*);
        ss << val;
        return ss.str();
    }
    assert(0); //Not implemented
}

std::string format(std::string fmt, ...) {
    std::string result(fmt);
    va_list args;
    va_start(args, fmt);
    std::regex e("\\{([^\\{\\}]+)\\}");
    std::smatch m;
    while (std::regex_search(fmt, m, e)) {
        std::string formattedArg = formatArg(m[1].str(), args);
        fmt.replace(m.position(), m.length(), formattedArg);
    }
    va_end(args);
    return fmt;
}

下面是一个使用它的例子:

std::string formatted = format("I am {s} and I have {i} cats", "bob", 3);
std::cout << formatted << std::endl;

输出:

我是鲍勃，我有三只猫

更新了一些答案，不同的是-函数将正确接受std::string为%s

namespace format_helper
{

    template <class Src>
    inline Src cast(Src v)
    {
        return v;
    }

    inline const char *cast(const std::string& v)
    {
        return v.c_str();
    }
};

template <typename... Ts>
inline std::string stringfmt (const std::string &fmt, Ts&&... vs)
{
    using namespace format_helper;
    char b;
    size_t required = std::snprintf(&b, 0, fmt.c_str(), cast(std::forward<Ts>(vs))...);//not counting the terminating null character.
    std::string result;
    //because we use string as container, it adds extra 0 automatically
    result.resize(required , 0);
    //and snprintf will use n-1 bytes supplied
    std::snprintf(const_cast<char*>(result.data()), required + 1, fmt.c_str(), cast(std::forward<Ts>(vs))...);

    return result;
}

这是我用来在我的程序中这样做的代码…这没什么特别的，但很管用……注意，您必须根据需要调整您的尺寸。我的MAX_BUFFER是1024。

std::string Format ( const char *fmt, ... )
{
    char textString[MAX_BUFFER*5] = {'\0'};

    // -- Empty the buffer properly to ensure no leaks.
    memset(textString, '\0', sizeof(textString));

    va_list args;
    va_start ( args, fmt );
    vsnprintf ( textString, MAX_BUFFER*5, fmt, args );
    va_end ( args );
    std::string retStr = textString;
    return retStr;
}

这是可以尝试的。简单。虽然没有使用字符串类的细微差别。
