# std::experimental::shared_future

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | experimental

Defined in header `<experimental/shared_future>` |  |
template< class T > class shared_future; | (1) | (concurrency TS)
template< class T > class shared_future<T&>; | (2) | (concurrency TS)
template<> class shared_future<void>; | (3) | (concurrency TS)

The class template `std::experimental::shared_future` extends std::shared_future with the following operations:

- an unwrapping constructor from `future<shared_future<T>>`;
- a member function `is_ready` to query whether the associated shared state is ready; and
- a member function `then` to attach a continuation to the future.

There is no interoperation between `std::experimental::shared_future` and std::shared_future.

### [edit] Member functions

is_ready | checks if the shared state is ready (public member function) [edit]

operator= | assigns the contents (public member function)
