The class template future defines a type for asynchronous return objects which do not share their shared state with other asynchronous return objects. A default-constructed future object has no shared state. A future object with shared state can be created by functions on asynchronous providers ([futures.state]) or by the move constructor and shares its shared state with the original asynchronous provider. The result (value or exception) of a future object can be set by calling a respective function on an object that shares the same shared state.
[ Note: Member functions of future do not synchronize with themselves or with member functions of shared_future. — end note ]
The effect of calling any member function other than the destructor, the move-assignment operator, or valid on a future object for which valid() == false is undefined. [ Note: Implementations are encouraged to detect this case and throw an object of type future_error with an error condition of future_errc::no_state. — end note ]
namespace std {
template <class R>
class future {
public:
future() noexcept;
future(future &&) noexcept;
future(const future& rhs) = delete;
~future();
future& operator=(const future& rhs) = delete;
future& operator=(future&&) noexcept;
shared_future<R> share();
see below get();
bool valid() const noexcept;
void wait() const;
template <class Rep, class Period>
future_status wait_for(const chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& rel_time) const;
template <class Clock, class Duration>
future_status wait_until(const chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& abs_time) const;
};
}
The implementation shall provide the template future and two specializations, future<R&> and future<void>. These differ only in the return type and return value of the member function get, as set out in its description, below.
Effects: constructs an empty future object that does not refer to a shared state.
Postcondition: valid() == false.
future(future&& rhs) noexcept;
Effects: move constructs a future object that refers to the shared state that was originally referred to by rhs (if any).
Postconditions:
valid() returns the same value as rhs.valid() prior to the constructor invocation.
rhs.valid() == false.
future& operator=(future&& rhs) noexcept;
Effects:
releases any shared state ([futures.state]).
move assigns the contents of rhs to *this.
Postconditions:
valid() returns the same value as rhs.valid() prior to the assignment.
rhs.valid() == false.
shared_future<R> share();
Returns: shared_future<R>(std::move(*this)).
Postcondition: valid() == false.
R future::get(); R& future<R&>::get(); void future<void>::get();
Note: as described above, the template and its two required specializations differ only in the return type and return value of the member function get.
Effects: wait()s until the shared state is ready, then retrieves the value stored in the shared state.
Returns:
future::get() returns the value v stored in the object's shared state as std::move(v).
future<R&>::get() returns the reference stored as value in the object's shared state.
future<void>::get() returns nothing.
Throws: the stored exception, if an exception was stored in the shared state.
Postcondition: valid() == false.
Returns: true only if *this refers to a shared state.
Effects: blocks until the shared state is ready.
template <class Rep, class Period> future_status wait_for(const chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& rel_time) const;
Effects: none if the shared state contains a deferred function ([futures.async]), otherwise blocks until the shared state is ready or until the relative timeout ([thread.req.timing]) specified by rel_time has expired.
Returns:
future_status::deferred if the shared state contains a deferred function.
future_status::ready if the shared state is ready.
future_status::timeout if the function is returning because the relative timeout ([thread.req.timing]) specified by rel_time has expired.
template <class Clock, class Duration> future_status wait_until(const chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& abs_time) const;
Effects: none if the shared state contains a deferred function ([futures.async]), otherwise blocks until the shared state is ready or until the absolute timeout ([thread.req.timing]) specified by abs_time has expired.
Returns:
future_status::deferred if the shared state contains a deferred function.
future_status::ready if the shared state is ready.
future_status::timeout if the function is returning because the absolute timeout ([thread.req.timing]) specified by abs_time has expired.
