One more step.

Turning anything into a fire-and-forget coroutine by Raymond Chen

From the article:

Last time, we wrote a helper function for converting an awaitable into a winrt::fire_and_forget, as well as another helper function that takes a lambda that returns an awaitable, and which invokes the lambmda as a winrt::fire_and_forget...

Heard about it?

winrt::fire_and_forget was too forgetful by Raymond Chen

From the article:

C++/WinRT provides a handy helper class called winrt::fire_and_forget. It lets you specify that nobody is going to observe the result of the coroutine. This is handy because it lets you tell the compiler that the lack of observation is intentional, so it won’t generate a warning...

Expressing fire-and-forget coroutines more explicitly, -or- How to turn any coroutine into fire-and-forget by Raymond Chen

From the article:

Last time, we looked at how to mark a coroutine as fire-and-forget, meaning that the caller does not get any information about when the coroutine completes. This is fine as far as it goes, but it may not be what you want...

How do I design a class so that methods must be called in a certain order?—Raymond Chen

Simple but effective.

How do I design a class so that methods must be called in a certain order? by Raymond Chen

From the article:

Suppose you have a class with some methods, and the methods must be called in a certain order. For example, suppose your class is for importing photos from a camera. First, you have to specify which camera you are importing from. Then you discover the pictures. Then you have to select which pictures you want to import, and set the options for how you want the download to occur. And finally, you download them...

Don’t pass lambdas (or other multi-line entities) as parameters to macros—Raymond Chen

Not helping you.

Don’t pass lambdas (or other multi-line entities) as parameters to macros by Raymond Chen

From the article:

Consider this macro: #ifdef DEBUG
#define LOG(value) LogValue(value)
#else
// In production, evaluate but don’t log.
#define LOG(value) (value)
#endif This seems not entirely unreasonable, but bad things happen if you pass a multi-line entity as the macro parameter...
