shared_future(unique_future) by value?Section: 32.10.8 [futures.shared.future] Status: NAD Editorial Submitter: Thomas J. Gritzan Opened: 2009-04-03 Last modified: 2021-06-06

Discussion:
In the shared_future class definition in [futures.shared_future]
the move constructor
that constructs a shared_future from an unique_future receives the
parameter by value. In paragraph 3, the same constructor receives it as
const value.
I think that is a mistake and the constructor should take a r-value reference:
shared_future(unique_future<R>&& rhs);
[ Batavia (2009-05): ]
We agree with the proposed resolution.
Move to Tentatively Ready.
[ 2009-07-05 Daniel notes: ]
The proposed change has already been incorported into the current working draft N2914.
Proposed resolution:
Change the synopsis in [futures.shared_future]:
shared_future(unique_future<R>&& rhs);
Change the definition of the constructor in [futures.shared_future]:
shared_future(constunique_future<R>&& rhs);
