C-Promises-Implementation

This implementation shows the basic idea of how Promises and their callbacks could be handled using the C++ Programming Language. In other words, it's the basic design of Promises in C++.

Examples

Some of the examples taken from understanding-javascript-promises

void e1(){
	auto a1 = ECMA::Promise<int, int>([](auto resolve){
			resolve(5101);
	});

	auto a2 = ECMA::Promise<int>([](auto resolve, auto reject){
			reject(11);
	});

	a1.then([](auto resolve, auto reject){
			std::cout << resolve << std::endl;
	});

	a2.then([](auto resolve, auto reject){
			std::cout << reject << std::endl;
	});

	a1.then([](auto resolve){ // not able to "resolve" a Promise a second time
			std::cout << "S: " << resolve << std::endl;
	});

	// or

	ECMA::Promise<int, int>::resolve(5101).then([](auto resolve, auto reject){
			std::cout << resolve << std::endl;
	});

	ECMA::Promise<int>::reject(11).then([](auto resolve, auto reject){
			std::cout << reject << std::endl;
	});

	// or even

	ECMA::Promise<int, int>::resolve(50).await(); // 50


	// how to use async 

	ECMA::Promise<int>::async((std::function<int(int)>)[](auto v){
			return v;
	}, 5).then([](auto resolve){
		std::cout << resolve << std::endl;
	});
}

void e2(){ // handling errors
	ECMA::Promise<std::string, Error>([](auto resolve, auto reject){
			throw Error("Error");
	})._catch([](auto err){
		std::cout << err << std::endl;
	});

	// or

	ECMA::Promise<std::string>([](auto resolve, auto reject){
			reject("Error");
	})._catch([](auto err){
		std::cout << err << std::endl;
	});
}

void e3(){ // cascading errors
	ECMA::Promise<int, char*>([](auto resolve, auto reject){
			throw (char*)"ERR";
	})._catch([](auto err){
			// std::cout << err << std::endl;
			throw (char*)"SEC";
	})._catch([](auto err){
		std::cout << err << std::endl;
	});
}
