std::experi...::operator=(3)

okay so bestie, welcome to the page for std::experi...::operator=(3) — that's the title, and yes we're in the C++ Standard Libary manual. 💅 This one is about assigning one std::experimental::future to another, and it's giving "move me, don't copy me" energy. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

• std::experimental::future::operator= — std::experimental::future::operator= (yes, the NAME section literally does the double-tap, iykyk 🫶)

🎀 Synopsis 🎀

          std::experimental::future<T>& operator=(
       std::experimental::future<T>&& other ) (1)
          noexcept;
          std::experimental::future<T>& operator=( const
       std::experimental::future<T>&    (2)
          other ) = delete;

It assigns the contents of another future object. That's the whole vibe. 🦋

1. Overload (1) releases any shared state and move-assigns the contents of other to *this. After the assignment, other.valid() == false and this->valid() will yield the same value as other.valid() before the assignment. No cap. 💖
2. Overload (2): std::experimental::future is not CopyAssignable. So this one is = delete;, periodt. 💀

🧚 Parameters 🧚

• other — a std::experimental::future that will transfer state to *this. It's the one handing over the state, main character energy. 👑

🌈 Return value 🌈

• *this — that's the return value, literally. 🎀
