Struct template call_if_statement<true, Then, internal

Struct template call_if_statement<true, Then, internal_type>

boost::contract::call_if_statement<true, Then, internal_type> — Template specialization to dispatch between then-branch functor template calls that return void and the ones that return non-void (not needed on C++17 compilers, use if constexpr instead).

Synopsis

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

template<typename Then> 
struct call_if_statement<true, Then, internal_type> : public boost::contract::call_if_statement< true, Then, result_of< Then()>::type >
{

  // public member functions
  explicit call_if_statement(Then);
};

Description

The base class is a call-if statement so the else and else-if statements can be specified if needed. Usually this class template is instantiated only via the return value of boost::contract::call_if and boost::contract::call_if_c.

	Note
	The `result_of<Then()>::type` expression needs be evaluated only when the static predicate is already checked to be `true` (because `Then()` is required to compile only in that case). Thus, this template specialization introduces an extra level of indirection necessary for proper lazy evaluation of this result-of expression.

Template Parameters

```
typename Then
```
Type of functor template to call when the static predicate is true (as it is for this template specialization).

`call_if_statement` public member functions

explicit call_if_statement(Then f);

Construct this object with the then-branch functor template.

Parameters:

f

Then-branch nullary functor template. The functor template call f() is compiled and called for this template specialization (because the if-statement static predicate is true). The return type of f() must be the same as (or implicitly convertible to) the return type of all other functor template calls specified for this call-if object.
