Public Types
using	USec = int32_t
	Alias for micro seconds type.
using	Error = FutureError
	Alias for associated error type.
using	DataType = T
	Alias for stored data type.

Public Member Functions
	Future () noexcept
	Constructor for empty useless shell of a future.
	Future (Future &&mv) noexcept
Future &	operator= (Future &&) noexcept
Result< Error >	cancel (const ExecutionPolicy policy) noexcept
	Cancel method. Might be called on some heavy long running task that is not needed anymore. Only makes sense if underlying state is Promised.
FuturePromiseState	state () const noexcept
	Returns current state of future-promise pair.
Result< Error >	takeInto (DataType &container) noexcept
	Method to retrieve data out of fulfilled future. Only makes sense if current state is Fulfilled.
Result< Error >	wait () const noexcept
	Blocks called thread until internal state changes to Fulfilled, Canceled or Failed.
Result< Error >	waitFor (const USec usec) const noexcept
	Blocks called thread until internal state changes to Fulfilled, Canceled or Failed, OR passed time is over.

Static Public Member Functions
static void	swap (Future &first, Future &second) noexcept
	Static method that swaps internal data between two passed futures.

Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class fsdk::Future< T >

Future class to support asynchronous data retrieval Look into std::future semantics to understand it.

Note

Is not instantiable using this header only.

Template Parameters

T	data type to store.

Member Function Documentation

cancel()

template<typename T >

Result< Error > fsdk::Future< T >::cancel ( const ExecutionPolicy policy )

noexcept

Cancel method. Might be called on some heavy long running task that is not needed anymore. Only makes sense if underlying state is Promised.

Parameters

policy

Policy on how to behave: block till state becomes Canceled or run async.

Returns

Result type containing

See also

Error code.

state()

template<typename T >

FuturePromiseState fsdk::Future< T >::state ( ) const

noexcept

Returns current state of future-promise pair.

Returns

Current state

See also

FuturePromiseState.

takeInto()

template<typename T >

Result< Error > fsdk::Future< T >::takeInto ( DataType & container )

noexcept

Method to retrieve data out of fulfilled future. Only makes sense if current state is Fulfilled.

Parameters

container

Reference to DataType object to fill with future' data.

Returns

Result type containing

See also

Error code.

wait()

template<typename T >

Result< Error > fsdk::Future< T >::wait ( ) const

noexcept

Blocks called thread until internal state changes to Fulfilled, Canceled or Failed.

Returns

Result type containing

See also

Error code.

waitFor()

template<typename T >

Result< Error > fsdk::Future< T >::waitFor ( const USec usec ) const

noexcept

Blocks called thread until internal state changes to Fulfilled, Canceled or Failed, OR passed time is over.

Parameters

usec	Upper bound of microseconds to wait.

Returns

Result type containing

See also

Error code.
