- <p>Back in <a href="../../experimental/worked-example/value_type.html">The payload</a>, we
- mentioned that there was no default implicit conversion of <code>file_io_error</code>
- (<code>status_code<_file_io_error_domain></code>) to <code>error</code>, as <code>error</code> is too small
- to hold <code>_file_io_error_domain::value_type</code>.</p>
- <p>We can tell the framework about available implicit conversions by defining
- an ADL discovered free function <code>make_status_code()</code> which takes our
- custom status code as input, and returns an <code>error</code>:</p>
- <div class="code-snippet"><div class="highlight"><pre class="chroma"><code class="language-c++" data-lang="c++"><span class="c1">// Now tell `error` how it can implicitly construct from `file_io_error`.
- </span><span class="c1">// This is done by us defining a free function called `make_status_code()`
- </span><span class="c1">// which is discovered using ADL. `error` is an alias to the refinement
- </span><span class="c1">// `status_code<erased<intptr_t>>` which is a status code whose value type

- </span><span class="c1">// non-trivial destructor when called upon a default constructed instance
