Sat Apr 20 19:10:54 2013 GMT: C++14 Features

Here is the list of changes that will (as far as I know) be included in C++14 as new features (compared to C++11):

  • A Proposal to Tweak Certain C++ Contextual Conversions, v3
  • Binary Literals in the C++ Core Language
  • Runtime-sized arrays with automatic storage duration (revision 5)
  • Return type deduction for normal functions
  • Generic lambda-capture initializers
  • Member initializers and aggregates
  • Relaxing constraints on constexpr functions
  • Clarifying Memory Allocation
  • Variable Templates (Revision 1)
  • Generic (Polymorphic) Lambda Expressions (Revision 3)
  • Making Operator Functors greater<>
  • std::result_of and SFINAE
  • An Incremental Improvement to integral_constant
  • Null Forward Iterators
  • std::exchange()
  • Compile-time integer sequences
  • Accessing Tuple Fields by Type
  • Making non-modifying sequence operations more robust
  • make_unique
  • Quoted Strings
  • User-defined Literals (excluding complex literals)
  • TransformationTraits Redux
  • Adding heterogeneous comparison lookup to associative containers
  • A proposal to add a utility class to represent optional objects
  • C++ Dynamic Arrays (dynarray)
  • Shared Locking in C++

Papers for most of these items are not yet available on the public WG21 site, but will be included in the post-Bristol mailing together with an updated Working Draft.

Sat Apr 20 14:40:44 2013 GMT: No Digit Separators in C++14

Yesterday it looked like digit separators would just about make it into C++14, but at the plenary session today there was no longer consensus for the proposal (Doug Gregor thankfully came up with some convincing examples of breakages compared to C++11) - WG21 voted 2 (favour) - 3 (opposed) - 3 (abstain).

Fri Apr 19 20:19:08 2013 GMT: C++14 Taking Shape

By Saturday evening it should be reasonable clear what features will be included in C++14 as the Committee Draft of C++14 will be produced after this week's Bristol meeting. "Digit separators" appears to cause quite some controversy with PL22.16 being opposed, but WG21 as a whole being in favour of the current proposal. The other controversial proposal (as it will break existing C++11 code) that appears to just have enough support is to make constexpr member functions no longer implicitly const.
