expected lite: expected objects for C++11 and later

Language License Build Status Build status Version download Conan Vcpkg Try it online Try it on godbolt online

expected lite is a single-file header-only library for objects that either represent a valid value or an error that you can pass by value. It is intended for use with C++11 and later. The library is based on the std::expected proposal [1] .

Contents

Example usage

#include "nonstd/expected.hpp"

#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace nonstd;
using namespace std::literals;

auto to_int( char const * const text ) -> expected<int, std::string> 
{
    char * pos = nullptr;
    auto value = strtol( text, &pos, 0 );

    if ( pos != text ) return value;
    else               return make_unexpected( "'"s + text + "' isn't a number" );
}

int main( int argc, char * argv[] )
{
    auto text = argc > 1 ? argv[1] : "42";

    auto ei = to_int( text );

    if ( ei ) std::cout << "'" << text << "' is " << *ei << ", ";
    else      std::cout << "Error: " << ei.error();
}

Compile and run

prompt> g++ -std=c++14 -Wall -I../include -o 01-basic.exe 01-basic.cpp && 01-basic.exe 123 && 01-basic.exe abc
'123' is 123, Error: 'abc' isn't a number

In a nutshell

expected lite is a single-file header-only library to represent value objects that either contain a valid value or an error. The library is a partly implementation of the proposal for std::expected [1,2,3] for use with C++11 and later.

Some Features and properties of expected lite are ease of installation (single header), default and explicit construction of an expected, construction and assignment from a value that is convertible to the underlying type, copy- and move-construction and copy- and move-assignment from another expected of the same type, testing for the presence of a value, operators for unchecked access to the value or the error (pointer or reference), value() and value_or() for checked access to the value, relational operators, swap() and various factory functions.

Version 0.7.0 introduces the monadic operations of propsoal p2505.

expected lite shares the approach to in-place tags with any-lite, optional-lite and with variant-lite and these libraries can be used together.

Not provided are reference-type expecteds. expected lite doesn't honour triviality of value and error types. expected lite doesn't handle overloaded address of operators.

Dependencies

expected lite has no other dependencies than the C++ standard library.

Installation

expected lite is a single-file header-only library. Put expected.hpp directly into the project source tree or somewhere reachable from your project.

Synopsis

Contents

Configuration

Tweak header

If the compiler supports __has_include(), expected lite supports the tweak header mechanism. Provide your tweak header as nonstd/expected.tweak.hpp in a folder in the include-search-path. In the tweak header, provide definitions as documented below, like #define expected_CPLUSPLUS 201103L.

Standard selection macro

-Dnsel_CPLUSPLUS=199711L
Define this macro to override the auto-detection of the supported C++ standard, or if your compiler does not set the __cplusplus macro correctly.

Select std::expected or nonstd::expected

At default, expected lite uses std::expected if it is available and lets you use it via namespace nonstd. You can however override this default and explicitly request to use std::expected or expected lite's nonstd::expected as nonstd::expected via the following macros.

-Dnsel_CONFIG_SELECT_EXPECTED=nsel_EXPECTED_DEFAULT
Define this to nsel_EXPECTED_STD to select std::expected as nonstd::expected. Define this to nsel_EXPECTED_NONSTD to select nonstd::expected as nonstd::expected. Default is undefined, which has the same effect as defining to nsel_EXPECTED_DEFAULT.

-Dnsel_P0323R=7 (default)
Define this to the proposal revision number to control the presence and behavior of features (see tables). Default is 7 for the latest revision.

Define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN

-Dnsel_CONFIG_WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN=1
Define this to 0 if you want to omit automatic definition of WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN. Default is 1 when _MSC_VER is present.

Disable C++ exceptions

-Dnsel_CONFIG_NO_EXCEPTIONS=0 Define this to 1 if you want to compile without exceptions. If not defined, the header tries and detect if exceptions have been disabled (e.g. via -fno-exceptions or /kernel). Default determined in header.

Enable SEH exceptions

-Dnsel_CONFIG_NO_EXCEPTIONS_SEH=0 Define this to 1 or 0 to control the use of SEH when C++ exceptions are disabled (see above). If not defined, the header tries and detect if SEH is available if C++ exceptions have been disabled (e.g. via -fno-exceptions or /kernel). Default determined in header.

Disable [[nodiscard]]

-Dnsel_CONFIG_NO_NODISCARD=0 Define this to 1 if you want to compile without [[nodiscard]]. Note that the default of marking class expected with [[nodiscard]] is not part of the C++23 standard. The rationale to use [[nodiscard]] is that unnoticed discarded expected error values may break the error handling flow.

Enable compilation errors

-Dnsel_CONFIG_CONFIRMS_COMPILATION_ERRORS=0
Define this macro to 1 to experience the by-design compile-time errors of the library in the test suite. Default is 0.

Configure P2505 monadic operations

By default, expected lite provides monadic operations as described in P2505R5. You can disable these operations by defining the following macro.

-Dnsel_P2505R=0

You can use the R3 revision of P2505, which lacks error_or, and uses remove_cvref for transforms, by defining the following macro.

-Dnsel_P2505R=3
