Ahoy, In what little development I’ve done in golang, I appreciated the “defer” statement as a means to write cleaner code. Basically, defer schedules a statement for execution when the stack unwinds.
https://tour.golang.org/flowcontrol/12 We have several specialized helper classes in Qt for similar purposes, f.ex QMutexLocker and friends, or the internal QBoolBlocker [1]. Seeing the various specialized classes we have, I thought that something generic in Qt could be useful to have (although our specialised classes provide some additional convenience and/or logic). So, I pushed a few lines code to https://git.qt.io/vohilshe/qt_defer Would like to hear what you think. Perhaps someone can find ways to make this more elegant without introducing tons of preprocessor/macro shenanigans, or perhaps even without depending on C++17's implicit template argument deduction (without enabling C++17 in the config this doesn't build for me, even though I don’t use auto in the template paramter list). Cheers, Volker [1] which was requested to be made public in https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-38575 _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
