This is probably unnecessary - no default ctor is provided if you have any other dtor, right?

46

You could consider putting the attribute on the scope_exit type? ('spose it doesn't make much difference)

This test seems a bit complicated - lambdas producing lambdas, a std::vector, etc.

What are the actual behaviors you're trying to test here?

38

I take it this static cast is needed for some reason? (but isn't needed for EXPECT_FALSE?)

Updated attribute position and removed unnecessary deleted ctor.

Sorry, if std::vector raises surprises, it's a mistake. Changed to SmallVector.

I'd like to test the order of the scope_exit runs. I label each scope_exit with a number (x for make_scope_exit(f(x))), and when the scope exits, the label is pushed to the vector "v". Then I inspect v to make sure of the order of labels.

Do you have any suggestions to make it simpler?

38

Yes, otherwise it doesn't compile - it's something to do with ASSERT.

I'd probably change this test to have a move-only type to ensure that the the scope exit device doesn't accidentally depend on copyability anywhere, syntactically, even if it doesn't execute it dynamically.

In theory you could/should have both tests (one could imagine a bug where the thing works correctly for a move-only type, but when given a move-and-copy type, it accidentally copies), but that doesn't seem to be worth worrying about for my money as you sort of have to go out of your way to make such a problem & until the implementation is more complicated such that those sort of problems are a risk, I wouldn't bother testing it.

(& as a bonus, then there's not even any reason to have any tracking of which, if any, constructors, etc, were called - there is only move)

Honestly - at that point is the "Basic" test worth keeping? I'm not sure.

Picturing just one test, something like:

struct Callable {
  bool &Called;
  Callable(bool &Called) : Called(Called) { }
  Callable(Callable &&RHS) : Called(RHS.Called) { }
  void operator()() { Called = true; }
};
bool Called = false;
{
  auto g = make_scope_exit(Callable(Called));
  EXPECT_FALSE(Called);
}
EXPECT_TRUE(Called);

Simplified the test case as suggested.

This revision was automatically updated to reflect the committed changes.

Maybe add some comments - one explaining that the test case is (also) testing that the device supports move-only functors. Another explaining that the device is inspired by the standard one, though is not complete - but can be made so (ie: it wasn't deliberately made not to match, just "this is all we need for now").

These won't work in the MSVC versions we need to support (they don't support synthesizing move ops at all) - so you'll have to write them out.

Also, should this type be copyable? I guess if the functor is copyable?

I'd probably just make it move-only for now & you'll have to write out the move ctor explicitly.

Done. Made it move-only in r278259.

Also fixed the LLVM_ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED_RESULT issue in r278298.
