std::packaged_task - cppreference.com

template< class >
class packaged_task;

template< class R, class ...ArgTypes >
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();
}

Output:

task_lambda: 512
task_bind:   2048
task_thread: 1024
