Function template call_if_c

boost::contract::call_if_c — Select compilation and execution of functor template calls using a static boolean predicate.

Synopsis

// In header: <boost/contract/call_if.hpp>


template<bool Pred, typename Then> 
  call_if_statement< Pred, Then > call_if_c(Then f);

Description

Create a call-if object with the specified then-branch functor template:

boost::contract::call_if_c<Pred1>(
    then_functor_template1
).template else_if_c<Pred2>(            // Optional.
    then_functor_template2
)                                       // Optionally, other `else_if_c` or
...                                     // `else_if`.
.else_(                                 // Optional for `void` functors,
    else_functor_template               // but required for non `void`.
)

Optional functor templates for else-if-branches and the else-branch can be specified as needed (the else-branch function template is required if f returns non-void).

Assertion Requirements

Parameters:

f

Then-branch nullary functor template. The functor template call f() is compiled and executed if and only if Pred is true. The return type of other functor template calls specified for this call-if statement (else-branch, else-if-branches, etc.) must be the same as (or implicitly convertible to) the return type of then-branch functor call f().

Template Parameters:

Pred

Static boolean predicate selecting which functor template call to compile and execute.

Returns:

A call-if statement so else and else-if statements can be specified if needed. Eventually, this will be the return value of the functor template call being compiled and executed (which can also be void).
