class packaged_task<R(ArgTypes...)>;
The class template std::packaged_task
wraps any Callable target (function, lambda expression, bind expression, or another function object) so that it can be invoked asynchronously. Its return value or exception thrown is stored in a shared state which can be accessed through std::future objects.
Just like std::function, std::packaged_task
is a polymorphic, allocator-aware container: the stored callable target may be allocated on heap or with a provided allocator.
#include <cmath> #include <functional> #include <future> #include <iostream> #include <thread> // unique function to avoid disambiguating the std::pow overload set int f(int x, int y) { return std::pow(x, y); } void task_lambda() { std::packaged_task<int(int, int)> task([](int a, int b) { return std::pow(a, b); }); std::future<int> result = task.get_future(); task(2, 9); std::cout << "task_lambda:\t" << result.get() << '\n'; } void task_bind() { std::packaged_task<int()> task(std::bind(f, 2, 11)); std::future<int> result = task.get_future(); task(); std::cout << "task_bind:\t" << result.get() << '\n'; } void task_thread() { std::packaged_task<int(int, int)> task(f); std::future<int> result = task.get_future(); std::thread task_td(std::move(task), 2, 10); task_td.join(); std::cout << "task_thread:\t" << result.get() << '\n'; } int main() { task_lambda(); task_bind(); task_thread(); }
