<p>A type carrying one of (i) a successful <code>T</code> (ii) a disappointment <code>EC</code> (iii) a failure <code>EP</code> (iv) both a disappointment <code>EC</code> and a failure <code>EP</code>, with <code>NoValuePolicy</code> specifying what to do if one tries to read state which isn&rsquo;t there. Any one, two, or all of <code>T</code>, <code>EC</code> and <code>EP</code> can be <code>void</code> to indicate no value for that state is present. Detectable using <a href="../../reference/traits/is_basic_outcome.html" class="api-reference"><code>is_basic_outcome&lt;T&gt;</code></a>

<ul>
<li>That trait <a href="../../reference/traits/type_can_be_used_in_basic_result.html" class="api-reference"><code>type_can_be_used_in_basic_result&lt;R&gt;</code></a>

<li>That either <code>EC</code> is <code>void</code> or <code>DefaultConstructible</code>.</li>
<li>That either <code>EP</code> is <code>void</code> or <code>DefaultConstructible</code>.</li>
</ul>

<p><em>Namespace</em>: <code>BOOST_OUTCOME_V2_NAMESPACE</code></p>

<p><em>Header</em>: <code>&lt;boost/outcome/basic_outcome.hpp&gt;</code></p>

<p><em>Inclusions</em>: The very lightest weight of C and C++ header files:</p>

<ol>
<li><code>&lt;cstdint&gt;</code></li>
<li><code>&lt;initializer_list&gt;</code></li>

<li>If C++ exceptions disabled and <code>BOOST_OUTCOME_DISABLE_EXECINFO</code> undefined only (used to print stack backtraces on &ldquo;exception throw&rdquo;):

<p>This very light weight set of inclusion dependencies makes basic outcome suitable for use in global header files of very large C++ codebases.</p>

<h3 id="design-rationale">Design rationale</h3>

<p><code>basic_outcome</code> extends <a href="../../reference/types/basic_result.html" class="api-reference"><code>basic_result&lt;T, E, NoValuePolicy&gt;</code></a>
 with a third state to transport,
conventionally (but not necessarily) some sort of &ldquo;abort&rdquo; or &ldquo;exceptional&rdquo; state which a function can
return to indicate that not only did the operation fail, but it did so <em>catastrophically</em> i.e. please
abort any attempt to retry the operation.</p>

<p>A perfect alternative is to throw a C++ exception for the abort code path, and indeed most programs
ought to do exactly that instead of using <code>basic_outcome</code>. However there are a number of use cases
where choosing <code>basic_outcome</code> shines:</p>

<ol>
<li>Where C++ exceptions or RTTI is not available, but the ability to fail catastrophically without
terminating the program is important.</li>
<li>Where deterministic behaviour is required even in the catastrophic failure situation.</li>
<li>In unit test suites of code using Outcome it is extremely convenient to accumulate test failures
into a <code>basic_outcome</code> for later reporting. A similar convenience applies to RPC situations, where
C++ exception throws need to be accumulated for reporting back to the initiating endpoint.</li>
<li>Where a function is &ldquo;dual use deterministic&rdquo; i.e. it can be used deterministically, in which case
one switches control flow based on <code>.error()</code>, or it can be used non-deterministically by throwing
an exception perhaps carrying a custom payload.</li>
</ol>

<li><code>MoveConstructible</code>, if all of <code>value_type</code>, <code>error_type</code> and <code>exception_type</code> implement move constructors.</li>

<li><code>LiteralType</code>, if all of <code>value_type</code>, <code>error_type</code> and <code>exception_type</code> are literal types.</li>

<li><p><del><code>StandardLayoutType</code></del>. It is implementation defined if <code>basic_outcome</code> can be used by C.
However all of the three major compilers MSVC, GCC and clang implement C layout of <code>basic_outcome</code> as follows:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre class="chroma"><code class="language-c++" data-lang="c++"><span class="k">struct</span> <span class="n">outcome_layout</span> <span class="p">{</span>
  <span class="k">struct</span> <span class="n">result_layout</span> <span class="p">{</span>
    <span class="n">value_type</span> <span class="n">value</span><span class="p">;</span>
    <span class="kt">unsigned</span> <span class="kt">int</span> <span class="n">flags</span><span class="p">;</span>
    <span class="n">error_type</span> <span class="n">error</span><span class="p">;</span>
  <span class="p">};</span>
  <span class="n">exception_type</span> <span class="n">exception</span><span class="p">;</span>
<span class="p">};</span>
</code></pre></div>
<p>If you choose standard layout <code>value_type</code>, <code>error_type</code> and <code>exception_type</code>, <code>basic_outcome</code>
works fine from C on MSVC, GCC and clang.</p></li>

<li><p><code>EqualityComparable</code>, if all of <code>value_type</code>, <code>error_type</code> and <code>exception_type</code> implement equality comparisons with one another.</p></li>

<li><p><del><code>LessThanComparable</code></del>, not implemented due to availability of implicit conversions from <code>value_type</code>, <code>error_type</code> and <code>exception_type</code>, this can cause major surprise (i.e. hard to diagnose bugs), so we don&rsquo;t implement these at all.
~ <code>Swappable</code></p></li>

<li><p><del><code>Hash</code></del>, not implemented as a generic implementation of a unique hash for non-valued items which are unequal would require a dependency on RTTI being enabled.</p></li>
</ul>

<p>Thus <code>basic_outcome</code> meets the <code>Regular</code> concept if all of <code>value_type</code>, <code>error_type</code> and <code>exception_type</code> are <code>Regular</code>, except for the lack of a default constructor. Often where one needs a default constructor, wrapping <code>basic_outcome</code> into
