334 * # mozilla::Variant
336 * A variant / tagged union / heterogenous disjoint union / sum-type template
337 * class. Similar in concept to (but not derived from) `boost::variant`.
339 * Sometimes, you may wish to use a C union with non-POD types. However, this is
340 * forbidden in C++ because it is not clear which type in the union should have
341 * its constructor and destructor run on creation and deletion
342 * respectively. This is the problem that `mozilla::Variant` solves.
344 * ## Usage
346 * A `mozilla::Variant` instance is constructed (via move or copy) from one of
347 * its variant types (ignoring const and references). It does *not* support
348 * construction from subclasses of variant types or types that coerce to one of
349 * the variant types.
351 * Variant<char, uint32_t> v1('a');
352 * Variant<UniquePtr<A>, B, C> v2(MakeUnique<A>());
353 * Variant<bool, char> v3(VariantType<char>, 0); // disambiguation needed
354 * Variant<int, int> v4(VariantIndex<1>, 0); // 2nd int
356 * Because specifying the full type of a Variant value is often verbose,
357 * there are two easier ways to construct values:
359 * A. AsVariant() can be used to construct a Variant value using type inference
360 * in contexts such as expressions or when returning values from functions.
361 * Because AsVariant() must copy or move the value into a temporary and this
362 * cannot necessarily be elided by the compiler, it's mostly appropriate only
363 * for use with primitive or very small types.
365 * Variant<char, uint32_t> Foo() { return AsVariant('x'); }
366 * // ...
367 * Variant<char, uint32_t> v1 = Foo(); // v1 holds char('x').
369 * B. Brace-construction with VariantType or VariantIndex; this also allows
370 * in-place construction with any number of arguments.
372 * struct AB { AB(int, int){...} };
373 * static Variant<AB, bool> foo()
375 * return {VariantIndex<0>{}, 1, 2};
377 * // ...
378 * Variant<AB, bool> v0 = Foo(); // v0 holds AB(1,2).
380 * All access to the contained value goes through type-safe accessors.
381 * Either the stored type, or the type index may be provided.
383 * void
384 * Foo(Variant<A, B, C> v)
386 * if (v.is<A>()) {
387 * A& ref = v.as<A>();
388 * ...
389 * } else (v.is<1>()) { // Instead of v.is<B>.
390 * ...
391 * } else {
392 * ...
396 * In some situation, a Variant may be constructed from templated types, in
397 * which case it is possible that the same type could be given multiple times by
398 * an external developer. Or seemingly-different types could be aliases.
399 * In this case, repeated types can only be accessed through their index, to
400 * prevent ambiguous access by type.
402 * // Bad!
403 * template <typename T>
404 * struct ResultOrError
406 * Variant<T, int> m;
407 * ResultOrError() : m(int(0)) {} // Error '0' by default
408 * ResultOrError(const T& r) : m(r) {}
409 * bool IsResult() const { return m.is<T>(); }
410 * bool IsError() const { return m.is<int>(); }
411 * };
412 * // Now instantiante with the result being an int too:
413 * ResultOrError<int> myResult(123); // Fail!
414 * // In Variant<int, int>, which 'int' are we refering to, from inside
415 * // ResultOrError functions?
417 * // Good!
418 * template <typename T>
419 * struct ResultOrError
421 * Variant<T, int> m;

423 * ResultOrError(const T& r) : m(VariantIndex<0>{}, r) {}
424 * bool IsResult() const { return m.is<0>(); } // 0 -> T
425 * bool IsError() const { return m.is<1>(); } // 1 -> int
426 * };
427 * // Now instantiante with the result being an int too:
428 * ResultOrError<int> myResult(123); // It now works!
430 * Attempting to use the contained value as type `T1` when the `Variant`
431 * instance contains a value of type `T2` causes an assertion failure.
433 * A a;
434 * Variant<A, B, C> v(a);
435 * v.as<B>(); // <--- Assertion failure!
437 * Trying to use a `Variant<Ts...>` instance as some type `U` that is not a
438 * member of the set of `Ts...` is a compiler error.
440 * A a;
441 * Variant<A, B, C> v(a);
442 * v.as<SomeRandomType>(); // <--- Compiler error!
444 * Additionally, you can turn a `Variant` that `is<T>` into a `T` by moving it
445 * out of the containing `Variant` instance with the `extract<T>` method:
447 * Variant<UniquePtr<A>, B, C> v(MakeUnique<A>());
448 * auto ptr = v.extract<UniquePtr<A>>();
450 * Finally, you can exhaustively match on the contained variant and branch into
451 * different code paths depending on which type is contained. This is preferred
452 * to manually checking every variant type T with is<T>() because it provides
453 * compile-time checking that you handled every type, rather than runtime
454 * assertion failures.
456 * // Bad!

477 * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
478 * return v.match(FooMatcher());
481 * // In some situations, a single generic lambda may also be appropriate:
482 * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
483 * return v.match([](auto&) {...});
486 * // Alternatively, multiple function objects may be provided, each one
487 * // corresponding to an option, in the same order:
488 * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
489 * return v.match([](A&) { ... },
490 * [](B&) { ... },
491 * [](C&) { ... },
492 * [](D&) { ... });
495 * // In rare cases, the index of the currently-active alternative is
496 * // needed, it may be obtained by adding a first parameter in the matcner
497 * // callback, which will receive the index in its most compact type (just
498 * // use `size_t` if the exact type is not important), e.g.:
499 * char* foo(Variant<A, B, C, D>& v) {
500 * return v.match([](auto aIndex, auto& aAlternative) {...});
501 * // --OR--
502 * return v.match([](size_t aIndex, auto& aAlternative) {...});
505 * ## Examples
507 * A tree is either an empty leaf, or a node with a value and two children:
509 * struct Leaf { };
511 * template<typename T>
512 * struct Node
514 * T value;
515 * Tree<T>* left;
516 * Tree<T>* right;
517 * };
519 * template<typename T>
520 * using Tree = Variant<Leaf, Node<T>>;
522 * A copy-on-write string is either a non-owning reference to some existing
523 * string, or an owning reference to our copy:
525 * class CopyOnWriteString
527 * Variant<const char*, UniquePtr<char[]>> string;
529 * ...
530 * };
532 * Because Variant must be aligned suitable to hold any value stored within it,
533 * and because |alignas| requirements don't affect platform ABI with respect to
534 * how parameters are laid out in memory, Variant can't be used as the type of a
535 * function parameter. Pass Variant to functions by pointer or reference
536 * instead.
