TRY avoiding copy/move
BOOST_OUTCOME_TRYV(expr)/BOOST_OUTCOME_TRY(expr)
works by creating an internal uniquely
named variable which holds the value emitted by the expression. This implies that a copy
or move operation shall be performed on the object emitted (unless you are on C++ 17 or
later, which has guaranteed copy elision), which may be undesirable for your use case.
You can tell BOOST_OUTCOME_TRY
to use a reference rather than a value for the internal
uniquely named variable like this:
// This refers to a Result containing an immovable object
outcome::result<Immovable> &&res;
// For when you do want to extract the value
// This creates an auto &&unique = res, followed by an
// auto &&v = std::move(unique).assume_value()
BOOST_OUTCOME_TRY((auto &&, v), res);
If you don’t care about extracting the value:
// For when you don't want to extract the value
// This creates an auto &&unique = res
BOOST_OUTCOME_TRYV2(auto &&, res);
