[section first_of]

[h1 Synopsis]

  template <class... Ps>
  struct first_of;

This is a [link parser_combinator parser combinator].

[table Arguments
  [[Name]       [Type]]
  [[`Ps`]       [[link parser parser]s]]
]

[h1 Description]

`first_of` applies the `Ps...` parsers in sequence. It accepts an input when all
parsers accept it. The result of parsing is the result of the first parser.

On compilers, which are not C++11-compliant, the maximum number of parsers
`first_of` accepts can be specified with the
`BOOST_METAPARSE_LIMIT_SEQUENCE_SIZE` macro. Its default value is `5`.

[h1 Header]

  #include <boost/metaparse/first_of.hpp>

[h1 Expression semantics]

For any `p1`, ... `pn` parsers

  first_of<p1, ..., pn>

is equivalent to

  nth_of_c<0, p1, ..., pn>

    is_error<
      int_with_semicolon::apply<BOOST_METAPARSE_STRING("13"), start>
    >::type::value,
    "int without semicolon is rejected"
  );
  
  static_assert(
    get_result<
      int_with_semicolon::apply<BOOST_METAPARSE_STRING("13;"), start>
    >::type::value,
    "the result is the result of the first parser"
