[][src]Enum futures::future::Either

pub enum Either<L, R> {
    Left(L),
    Right(R),
}

The enum Either with variants Left and Right is a general purpose sum type with two cases.

The Either type is symmetric and treats its variants the same way, without preference. (For representing success or error, use the regular Result enum instead.)

Variants

A value of type L.

A value of type R.

Methods

impl<L, R> Either<L, R>
[src]

Return true if the value is the Left variant.

use either::*;

let values = [Left(1), Right("the right value")];
