所以，如果你想使用一个未来，你最终会得到一个承诺，你用它来获得异步处理的结果。
该页面的一个例子是:
promise<int> intPromise;
future<int> intFuture = intPromise.get_future();
std::thread t(asyncFun, std::move(intPromise));
// do some other stuff
int result = intFuture.get(); // may throw MyException
We can now consider how to implement something like async, but in a fashion that we control. For example, we may insist that the function be executed in a separate thread. We already know that we can provide a separate thread by means of the std::thread class.
The next lower level of abstraction does exactly that: std::packaged_task. This is a template that wraps a function and provides a future for the functions return value, but the object itself is callable, and calling it is at the user's discretion. We can set it up like this:
std::packaged_task<int(double, char, bool)> tsk(foo);
auto fut = tsk.get_future(); // is a std::future<int>
Now we're down to the lowest level: How would we implement the packaged task? This is where the std::promise comes in. The promise is the building block for communicating with a future. The principal steps are these:
The calling thread makes a promise.
The calling thread obtains a future from the promise.
The promise, along with function arguments, are moved into a separate thread.
The new thread executes the function and fulfills the promise.
The original thread retrieves the result.
As an example, here's our very own "packaged task":
template <typename> class my_task;
template <typename R, typename ...Args>
class my_task<R(Args...)>
{
std::function<R(Args...)> fn;
std::promise<R> pr; // the promise of the result
public:
template <typename ...Ts>
explicit my_task(Ts &&... ts) : fn(std::forward<Ts>(ts)...) { }
template <typename ...Ts>
void operator()(Ts &&... ts)
{
pr.set_value(fn(std::forward<Ts>(ts)...)); // fulfill the promise
}
std::future<R> get_future() { return pr.get_future(); }
// disable copy, default move
};
c++ 11调用我在(1)std::promise和(3)std::future中所说的东西。
std::thread是(2)唯一公开提供的东西。这是不幸的，因为真正的程序需要管理线程。内存资源，大多数人会希望任务运行在线程池上，而不是创建&为每一个小任务破坏一个线程(这几乎总是会导致不必要的性能损失，并且很容易造成更糟糕的资源短缺)
下面的示例代码是一个简单的Visual Studio 2013 Windows控制台应用程序，展示了使用一些c++ 11并发类/模板和其他功能。它说明了promise/future的使用情况，自治线程将完成一些任务并停止，以及需要更多同步行为的使用情况，由于需要多个通知，promise/future对无法工作。
