That
if constexprin the case you mention does make the constructor clean as heck. Thanks for the clarification and the commits, by the way!ikr, constexpr is pretty cool. sure, no problem. I could make it fully compatible with c++14 without c++17 extensions if u wanna use it with c++14
I mean, I am not too concerned and it is your code. The
if constexpris just so much spiffier. You should do what's best for you.My own use case is that for pre-C++23 (and in particular, pre-C++20) workflows I'm looking to homogeneize the set of dependencies used to supplement the standard library and this looks like a great candidate lib. I already have my own
expected, actually, but would rather someone else's who knows what they're doing. Since C++14 is the oldest standard I have to support directly for clients (big improvement: was C++03 before 2021) and it brought in the big changes that madeconstexpractually usable, I treat C++14 as a a sorta "C++ LTS" in my codebase.alright then.
I see.
expectedis such a great library to have regardless of the standard version. oh c++03, I'm not familiar with that standard.I enabled support for c++11 regardless, it's kinda cool to do so
