Chapter 17: Lambda Extensions |
17.5Changes for Capturing
C++20 introduces several new extensions to the capturing of values and objects in lambdas.
17.5.1 Capturing this and *this
If a lambda is defined inside a member function, the question is how you can access data of the object for which the member function is called. Before C++20, we had the following rules:
class MyType { |
|
std::string name; |
|
... |
|
void foo() { |
|
int val = 0; |
|
... |
|
auto l0 = [val] { bar(val, name); }; |
// ERROR: member name not cap- |
tured |
|
auto l1 = [val, name=name] { bar(val, name); }; // OK, capture val and name by value |
|
auto l2 = [&] { bar(val, name); }; |
// OK (val and name by reference) |
auto l3 = [&, this] { bar(val, name); }; |
// OK (val and name by reference) |
auto l4 = [&, *this] { bar(val, name); }; |
// OK (val by reference, name by value) |
auto l5 = [=] { bar(val, name); }; |
// OK (val by value, name by refer- |
ence) |
|
auto l6 = [=, this] { bar(val, name); }; |
// ERROR before C++20 |
auto l7 = [=, *this] { bar(val, name); }; |
// OK (val and name by value) |
...
}
};
Since C++20, the following rules apply:
class MyType { std::string name;
...
void foo() { int val = 0;
...
auto l0 = [val] { bar(val, name); }; // ERROR: member name not captured auto l1 = [val, name=name] { bar(val, name); }; // OK, capture val and name by value
auto l2 |
= [&] { bar(val, name); }; |
// deprecated (val and name by ref.) |
|
auto l3 |
= [&, this] { bar(val, name); }; |
// OK (val and name by reference) |
|
auto |
l4 |
= [&, *this] { bar(val, name); }; |
// OK (val by reference, name by value) |
auto |
l5 |
= [=] { bar(val, name); }; |
// deprecated (val by value, name by ref.) |
17.5 Changes for Capturing |
597 |
auto l6 = [=, this] { bar(val, name); }; auto l7 = [=, *this] { bar(val, name); };
...
}
};
Thus, since C++20, we have the following changes:
//OK (val by value, name by reference)
//OK (val and name by value)
•[=, this] is now allowed as a lambda capture (some compilers did allow it before, although it was formally invalid).
•The implicit capture of *this is deprecated.
17.5.2 Capturing Structured Bindings
Since C++20, it the capture of structured bindings (introduced with C++17) is allowed:
std::map<int, std::string> mymap;
...
for (const auto& [key,val] : mymap) { auto l = [key, val] { // OK since C++20
...
};
...
}
Some compilers did allow the capture of structured bindings before, although it was formally invalid.
17.5.3 Capturing Parameter Packs of Variadic Templates
If you have a variadic template, you could capture parameter packs as follows:
template<typename... Args> void foo(Args... args)
{
auto l1 = [&] {
bar(args...); // OK
};
auto l2 = [args...] { // or [=] bar(args...); // OK
};
...
}
However, if you wanted to return the lambda that was created for later use, there was a problem:
•Using [&], you would return a lambda that refers to a destroyed parameter pack.
•Using [args...] or [=], you would copy the passed parameter pack.
598 |
Chapter 17: Lambda Extensions |
You can usually use init-captures to use move semantics when capturing objects:
template<typename T> void foo(T arg)
{
auto l3 = [arg = std::move(arg)] { // OK since C++14
bar(arg); |
// OK |
}; |
|
... |
|
}
However, there was no syntax provided to use init-captures with parameter packs. C++20 introduces a corresponding syntax:
template<typename... Args> void foo(Args... args)
{
auto l4 = [...args = std::move(args)] { // OK since C++20 bar(args...); // OK
};
...
}
You can also init-capture parameter packs by reference. For example, we can change to a parameter name for the lambda as follows:
template<typename... Args> |
|
void foo(Args... args) |
|
{ |
|
auto l4 = [&...fooArgs = args] { |
// OK since C++20 |
bar(fooArgs...); // OK |
|
}; |
|
... |
|
} |
|
Example of Capturing Parameter Packs of Variadic Templates
A generic function that creates and returns a lambda that captures a variadic number of parameters by value now looks as follows:
template<typename Callable, typename... Args> auto createToCall(Callable op, Args... args)
{
return [op, ...args = std::move(args)] () -> decltype(auto) { return op(args...);
};
}
17.5 Changes for Capturing |
599 |
Using the new syntax for abbreviated function templates, the code looks as follows:
auto createToCall(auto op, auto... args)
{
return [op, ...args = std::move(args)] () -> decltype(auto) { return op(args...);
};
}
Here is a complete example:
lang/capturepack.cpp
#include <iostream> #include <string_view>
auto createToCall(auto op, auto... args)
{
return [op, ...args = std::move(args)] () -> decltype(auto) { return op(args...);
};
}
void printWithGAndNoG(std::string_view s)
{
std::cout << s << "g " << s << '\n';
}
int main()
{
auto printHero = createToCall(printWithGAndNoG, "Zhan");
...
|
printHero(); |
|
|
||
} |
|
|
Run it to print a hero!
17.5.4 Lambdas as Coroutines
Lambdas can also be coroutines, which were introduced with C++20. However, note that in this case, the lambdas should not capture anything, because a coroutine may easily be used longer than the lambda object, which is created locally, exists.
