[section transform]

[h1 Synopsis]

  template <class P, class T>
  struct transform;

This is a [link parser_combinator parser combinator].

[table Arguments
  [[Name] [Type]]
  [[`P`]  [[link parser parser]]]
  [[`T`]  [[link metafunction_class template metafunction class] taking one argument]]
]

[h1 Description]

`transform` parses the input using `P` and transforms the result `P` returns
with `T`. The result of parsing is what `T` returns. When `P` fails, the failure
is returned unchanged.

[h1 Header]

  #include <boost/metaparse/transform.hpp>

[h1 Expression semantics]

For any `p` parser, `t` metafunction class accepting one argument, `s`
compile-time string and `pos` source position

  get_result<transform<p, t>::apply<s, pos>>::type

is equivalent to

  t::apply<get_result<p::apply<s, pos>>::type>::type

When `p::apply<s, pos>` doesn't return an error. The combinator returns the
error otherwise.

[h1 Example]

  #include <boost/metaparse/transform.hpp>
  #include <boost/metaparse/digit.hpp>
  #include <boost/metaparse/start.hpp>
  #include <boost/metaparse/string.hpp>
  #include <boost/metaparse/is_error.hpp>
  #include <boost/metaparse/get_result.hpp>
  
  #include <boost/metaparse/util/digit_to_int.hpp>
  
  using namespace boost::metaparse;
  
  using digit_value = transform<digit, util::digit_to_int<>>;
  
  static_assert(
    !is_error<
      digit_value::apply<BOOST_METAPARSE_STRING("0"), start>
    >::type::value,
    "digit_val should accept a digit"
  );
  
  static_assert(
    is_error<digit_value::apply<BOOST_METAPARSE_STRING("x"), start>>::type::value,
    "digit_val should reject a character"
  );
  
  static_assert(
    get_result<
      digit_value::apply<BOOST_METAPARSE_STRING("0"), start>
    >::type::value == 0,
    "the result of parsing should be the int value"
  );
