drop_ok

  • This crate defines DropOk<E> trait and impl for Result.
  • DropOk<E> trait has .drop_ok(self) -> Result<(), E> function.
  • This is a syntax sugar for .map(|_|()).

Useful scene

fn some_function() -> Result<(), MyError>
{
 match switcher
 {
  pattern_a => some_task1().drop_ok()?
  pattern_b => some_task2().drop_ok()?
  pattern_c => some_task3()?
  pattern_d => some_task4()
  _ => ()
 }
}

fn some_task1()     -> Result<i8     , MyError> { /* abbr */ }
fn some_task2<'a>() -> Result<&'a str, MyError> { /* abbr */ }
fn some_task3()     -> Result<()     , MyError> { /* abbr */ }
fn some_task4() { /* abbr */ }

Note

"I don't need it, because ..."

  • Yes, your are right to your world.
    • But, I tired to type/see .map(|_|()). So I'm happy with.drop_ok().
