Non-member functions

Helper classes

is_error_code_enum

 

Defined in header <future>
enum class future_errc {     broken_promise             = /* implementation-defined */,     future_already_retrieved   = /* implementation-defined */,     promise_already_satisfied  = /* implementation-defined */,     no_state                   = /* implementation-defined */ };		(since C++11)

The scoped enumeration std::future_errc defines the error codes reported by std::future and related classes in std::future_error exception objects. Only four error codes are required, although the implementation may define additional error codes. Because the appropriate specialization of std::is_error_code_enum is provided, values of type std::future_errc are implicitly convertible to std::error_code.

All error codes are distinct and non-zero.

(since C++14)

Member constants

Constant	Explanation
broken_promise	the asynchronous task abandoned its shared state
future_already_retrieved	the contents of shared state were already accessed through std::future
promise_already_satisfied	attempt to store a value in the shared state twice
no_state	attempt to access std::promise or std::future without an associated shared state

Non-member functions

make_error_code(std::future_errc) (C++11)	constructs a future error code (function)
make_error_condition(std::future_errc) (C++11)	constructs a future error_condition (function)

Helper classes

is_error_code_enum<std::future_errc> (C++11)

extends the type trait std::is_error_code_enum to identify future error codes (class template)

Notes

In C++11, broken_promise was specified to equal zero despite std::error_code/std::error_condition using zero to mean "no error". This was fixed in C++14.
