Constrained template macros
Overridable: All of the following macros are overridable, define before inclusion.
Header: <boost/outcome/config.hpp>
These macros expand into either the syntax for directly specifying constrained templates in C++ 20, or into a SFINAE based emulation for earlier C++ versions. Form of usage looks as follows:
BOOST_OUTCOME_TEMPLATE(class ErrorCondEnum)
BOOST_OUTCOME_TREQUIRES(
// If this is a valid expression
BOOST_OUTCOME_TEXPR(error_type(make_error_code(ErrorCondEnum()))),
// If this predicate is true
BOOST_OUTCOME_TPRED(predicate::template enable_error_condition_converting_constructor<ErrorCondEnum>)
// Any additional requirements follow here ...
)
constexpr basic_result(ErrorCondEnum &&t, error_condition_converting_constructor_tag /*unused*/ = {});
Be aware that slightly different semantics occur for real C++ 20 constrained templates than for the SFINAE emulation.
BOOST_OUTCOME_TEMPLATE(template args ...)
Begins a constrained template declaration.
BOOST_OUTCOME_TREQUIRES(requirements ...)
Specifies the requirements for the constrained template to be available for selection by the compiler.
BOOST_OUTCOME_TEXPR(expression)
A requirement that the given expression is valid.
-
A requirement that the given constant time expression is true.
