~future();		(since C++11)

Releases any shared state. This means

• if the current object holds the last reference to its shared state, the shared state is destroyed; and
• the current object gives up its reference to its shared state; and

these actions will not block for the shared state to become ready, except that it may block if all of the following are true: the shared state was created by a call to std::async, the shared state is not yet ready, and this was the last reference to the shared state.

(since C++14)

In practice, these actions will block only if the task’s launch policy is std::launch::async (see "Effective Modern C++" Item 36), either because that was chosen by the runtime system or because it was specified in the call to std::async.
