hare对Nick解决方案的评论真的很酷。这里是完整的代码示例(c++ 11):

constexpr uint32_t hash(const std::string& s) noexcept
{
    uint32_t hash = 5381;
    for (const auto& c : s)
        hash = ((hash << 5) + hash) + (unsigned char)c;
    return hash;
}

constexpr inline uint32_t operator"" _(char const* p, size_t) { return hash(p); }

std::string s = "raj";
switch (hash(s)) {
case "sda"_:
    // do_something();
    break;
default:
    break;
}

在c++中，字符串不是一等公民。字符串操作是通过标准库完成的。我想，这就是原因。另外，c++使用分支表优化来优化开关case语句。看看这个链接。

c++ 11的更新显然不是上面的@MarmouCorp，而是http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/cpp/cpp_mfc/article.php/c4067/Switch-on-Strings-in-C.htm

使用两个映射在字符串和类enum之间进行转换(比普通enum更好，因为它的值是在它内部的范围内，并且反向查找可以获得良好的错误消息)。

在codeguru代码中使用静态是可能的，因为编译器支持初始化列表，这意味着VS 2013 plus。GCC 4.8.1是可以的，不确定它能兼容多远的时间。

/// <summary>
/// Enum for String values we want to switch on
/// </summary>
enum class TestType
{
    SetType,
    GetType
};

/// <summary>
/// Map from strings to enum values
/// </summary>
std::map<std::string, TestType> MnCTest::s_mapStringToTestType =
{
    { "setType", TestType::SetType },
    { "getType", TestType::GetType }
};

/// <summary>
/// Map from enum values to strings
/// </summary>
std::map<TestType, std::string> MnCTest::s_mapTestTypeToString
{
    {TestType::SetType, "setType"}, 
    {TestType::GetType, "getType"}, 
};

...

std::string someString = "setType";
TestType testType = s_mapStringToTestType[someString];
switch (testType)
{
    case TestType::SetType:
        break;

    case TestType::GetType:
        break;

    default:
        LogError("Unknown TestType ", s_mapTestTypeToString[testType]);
}

在许多情况下，您可以通过从字符串中提取第一个字符并打开它来进行额外的工作。如果您的case以相同的值开始，可能最终必须在charat(1)上进行嵌套切换。任何阅读您的代码的人都会喜欢一个提示，因为大多数人会只使用if-else-if

这是因为c++将开关转换为跳转表。它对输入数据执行简单的操作，并在不进行比较的情况下跳转到适当的地址。因为字符串不是一个数字，而是一个数字数组，所以c++不能从它创建一个跳转表。

movf    INDEX,W     ; move the index value into the W (working) register from memory
addwf   PCL,F       ; add it to the program counter. each PIC instruction is one byte
                    ; so there is no need to perform any multiplication. 
                    ; Most architectures will transform the index in some way before 
                    ; adding it to the program counter

table                   ; the branch table begins here with this label
    goto    index_zero  ; each of these goto instructions is an unconditional branch
    goto    index_one   ; of code
    goto    index_two
    goto    index_three

index_zero
    ; code is added here to perform whatever action is required when INDEX = zero
    return

index_one
