It + * serves two roles. It can represent values which are *semantically* optional, + * augmenting a type with an explicit 'Nothing' value. In this role, it provides + * methods that make it easy to work with values that may be missing, along with + * equality and comparison operators so that Maybe values can be stored in + * containers. Maybe values can be constructed conveniently in expressions using + * type inference, as follows: + * + * void doSomething(Maybe<Foo> aFoo) { + * if (aFoo) // Make sure that aFoo contains a value... + * aFoo->takeAction(); // and then use |aFoo->| to access it. + * } // |*aFoo| also works! + * + * doSomething(Nothing()); // Passes a Maybe<Foo> containing no value. + * doSomething(Some(Foo(100))); // Passes a Maybe<Foo> containing |Foo(100)|. + * + * You'll note that it's important to check whether a Maybe contains a value + * before using it, using conversion to bool, |isSome()|, or |isNothing()|. You + * can avoid these checks, and sometimes write more readable code, using + * |valueOr()|, |ptrOr()|, and |refOr()|, which allow you to retrieve the value + * in the Maybe and provide a default for the 'Nothing' case. You can also use + * |apply()| to call a function only if the Maybe holds a value, and |map()| to + * transform the value in the Maybe, returning another Maybe with a possibly + * different type. + * + * Maybe's other role is to support lazily constructing objects without using + * dynamic storage. A Maybe directly contains storage for a value, but it's + * empty by default. |emplace()|, as mentioned above, can be used to construct a + * value in Maybe's storage. The value a Maybe contains can be destroyed by + * calling |reset()|; this will happen automatically if a Maybe is destroyed + * while holding a value. + * + * It's a common idiom in C++ to use a pointer as a 'Maybe' type, with a null + * value meaning 'Nothing' and any other value meaning 'Some'. You can convert + * from such a pointer to a Maybe value using 'ToMaybe()'. + * + * Maybe is inspired by similar types in the standard library of many other + * languages (e.g. Haskell's Maybe and Rust's Option). In the C++ world it's + * very similar to std::optional, which was proposed for C++14 and originated in + * Boost. The most important differences between Maybe and std::optional are: + * + * - std::optional<T> may be compared with T. We deliberately forbid that. + * - std::optional allows in-place construction without a separate call to + * |emplace()| by using a dummy |in_place_t| value to tag the appropriate + * constructor. + * - std::optional has |valueOr()|, equivalent to Maybe's |valueOr()|, but + * lacks corresponding methods for |refOr()| and |ptrOr()|. + * - std::optional lacks |map()| and |apply()|, making it less suitable for + * functional-style code. + * - std::optional lacks many convenience functions that Maybe has. Most + * unfortunately, it lacks equivalents of the type-inferred constructor + * functions |Some()| and |Nothing()|. + * + * N.B. GCC has missed optimizations with Maybe in the past and may generate + * extra branches/loads/stores. Use with caution on hot paths; it's not known + * whether or not this is still a problem. + */ +template<class T> +class Maybe +{ + bool mIsSome; + AlignedStorage2<T> mStorage; + +public: + typedef T ValueType; + + Maybe() : mIsSome(false) { } + ~Maybe() { reset(); } + + MOZ_IMPLICIT Maybe(Nothing) : mIsSome(false) { } + + Maybe(const Maybe& aOther) + : mIsSome(false) + { + if (aOther.mIsSome) { + emplace(*aOther); + } + } + + /** + * Maybe<T*> can be copy-constructed from a Maybe<U*> if U* and T* are + * compatible, or from Maybe<decltype(nullptr)>. + */ + template<typename U, + typename = + typename std::enable_if<std::is_pointer<T>::value && + (std::is_same<U, decltype(nullptr)>::value || + (std::is_pointer<U>::value && + std::is_base_of<typename std::remove_pointer<T>::type, + typename std::remove_pointer<U>::type>::value))>::type> + MOZ_IMPLICIT + Maybe(const Maybe<U>& aOther) + : mIsSome(false) + { + if (aOther.isSome()) { + emplace(*aOther); + } + } + + Maybe(Maybe&& aOther) + : mIsSome(false) + { + if (aOther.mIsSome) { + emplace(Move(*aOther)); + aOther.reset(); + } + } + + /** + * Maybe<T*> can be move-constructed from a Maybe<U*> if U* and T* are + * compatible, or from Maybe<decltype(nullptr)>. + */ + template<typename U, + typename = + typename std::enable_if<std::is_pointer<T>::value && + (std::is_same<U, decltype(nullptr)>::value || + (std::is_pointer<U>::value && + std::is_base_of<typename std::remove_pointer<T>::type, + typename std::remove_pointer<U>::type>::value))>::type> + MOZ_IMPLICIT + Maybe(Maybe<U>&& aOther) + : mIsSome(false) + { + if (aOther.isSome()) { + emplace(Move(*aOther)); + aOther.reset(); + } + } + + Maybe& operator=(const Maybe& aOther) + { + if (&aOther != this) { + if (aOther.mIsSome) { + if (mIsSome) { + // XXX(seth): The correct code for this branch, below, can't be used + // due to a bug in Visual Studio 2010.
