Improvements to std::future and Related APIs

by Niklas Gustafsson, Artur Laksberg, Herb Sutter, Sana Mithani

Excerpt:

This proposal is an evolution of the functionality of std::future/std::shared_future. It details additions which can enable wait free compositions of asynchronous operations.

This document supersedes N3634: the title has been changed, and the proposed changes have been modified to be expressed as edits to the C++ Draft Standard.

New in this version: implicit unwrapping (one level) of future<future<R>> to future<R> in then().
