54 /// ErrorOr<T> is a pointer-like class that represents the result of an
55 /// operation. The result is either an error, or a value of type T. This is
56 /// designed to emulate the usage of returning a pointer where nullptr indicates
57 /// failure. However instead of just knowing that the operation failed, we also
58 /// have an error_code and optional user data that describes why it failed.
60 /// It is used like the following.
62 /// ErrorOr<Buffer> getBuffer();
64 /// auto buffer = getBuffer();
65 /// if (error_code ec = buffer.getError())
67 /// buffer->write("adena");
71 /// Implicit conversion to bool returns true if there is a usable value. The
72 /// unary * and -> operators provide pointer like access to the value. Accessing
73 /// the value when there is an error has undefined behavior.
75 /// When T is a reference type the behaivor is slightly different. The reference
76 /// is held in a std::reference_wrapper<std::remove_reference<T>::type>, and
77 /// there is special handling to make operator -> work as if T was not a
80 /// T cannot be a rvalue reference.
