std::promise<R>::get_future

std::future <R> get_future( ) ;		(since C++11)

A future referring to the shared state of *this.

Exceptions

• *this has no shared state. The error code is set to no_state.

• get_future() has already been called on a promise with the same shared state as *this. The error code is set to future_already_retrieved
