C++ CD1 Comment Status

Rev. 1

This document summarizes the progress of WG21 in addressing National Body comments on Committee Draft document N2800. In total, 591 comments were received. To date, 214 have been accepted or tentatively accepted as proposed, 27 have been accepted or tentatively accepted with modifications, 99 have been rejected, and 246 remain to be addressed. The detailed breakdown:

This document consists of three tables. The first is a table of contents, listing each issue by National Body and comment number and giving its current status. The second is a list of all as-yet unresolved comments, sorted by the responsible party. The third is a comprehensive listing of all the comments received in the same order and with roughly the same organization as in document N2837; the “Disposition” field gives the response, as well as any explanatory comments provided by the responsible party. (The internal formatting of the text of the national body comments will be improved in future revisions of this document.)


SORTED LISTING OF COMMENTS:

In the following table, the “Date” field represents the date on which the Committee affirmed the listed disposition.

ALL COMMENTS

ID Ref Comment Proposed Resolution Owner Issue Disposition
FR 1 General Comment   Interactions between several new features appear obscure, and very few examples are offered to guide understanding of the formal text on interaction between these new additions. We worry about the complexity of the programming model so created.     CWG    Need more information from NB, including a suggested resolution, in order to respond effectively to this comment.  
US 1 1-16   The active issues identified in WG21 N2803, C++ Standard Core Language Active Issues, must be addressed and appropriate action taken.
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/cwg_active.html  
Appropriate action would include making changes to the CD, identifying an issue as not requiring a change to the CD, or deferring the issue to a later point in time.   CWG    ACCEPTED  
CA 1   There are quite a number of defects for the current CD recorded in SC22/WG21-N2803 and N2806   Consider these comments and update ISO/IEC CD 14882 accordingly   CWG    ACCEPTED  
DE 1 1 through 16   DE-1 Consider addressing a significant part of the unresolved core language issues presented in WG21 document N2791 "C++ Standard Core Language Active Issues, Revision 59", available at http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2008/n2791.html .     CWG    ACCEPTED  
CH 2 all   The issues on the issues lists shall be addressed before the standard becomes final.     CWG    ACCEPTED  
US 3 all   Latin abbreviations are presented incorrectly.   Italicize all Latin abbreviations, append commas after each occurrence of i.e. and e.g., and remove extraneous space after each such abbreviation.   editor    ACCEPTED with MODIFICATIONS

The "Chicago Manual of Style" says that i.e. and e.g. are never italicized and always followed by a comma, so that's how they now appear.  
FR 3 1 [intro.scope] ¶ 2   C++ is split at the end of line.     editor     
US 4 1.1 ¶ 2   There is a bad line break in "C++".     editor     
UK 1
[214]
1.1 ¶ 2   List of additional facilities over C has been extended with this standard, so should be mentioned in the introductory material.   Add the following to the list in 1.1p2: atomic operations concurrency alignment control user-defined literals attributes   editor    REJECTED

This list is highlights, not all differences. Okay as is.  
FR 4 1.2 [intro.refs] ¶ 1   Is the lack of reference to ISO/CEI 9899/AC3:2007 voluntary?     editor     
UK 2
[215]
1.2 ¶ 1   We recommend taking the latest update to each listed standard, yet the C standard is quite deliberately held back to the 1990 version without comment.+   ... not sure ...   editor    REJECTED

1.2 (Normative references) cites 9899:1999, 9899:1999/Corl.1:2001, and 9899:1999/Cor.2:2004, which collectively constitute C99.

1.3.1   The definition of an argument does not seem to cover many assumed use cases, and we believe that is not intentional.   Revise the definition of argument to answer question such as: Are lambda-captures arguments? Are type names in a throw-spec arguments? 'Argument' to casts, typeid, alignof, alignas, decltype and sizeof? why in x[arg] : arg is not an agrument, but the value forwarded to operator[]() is ? Does not apply to operators as call-points not bounded by parenthises ? Similar for copy initialization and conversion? what are Deduced template 'arguments'? what are 'default arguments'? can attributes have arguments? what about concepts, requires clauses and concept_map instantiations? What about user-defined literals where parens are not used?   CWG  783   
UK 4
[216]
1.3.3   This definition is essentially worthless, as it says nothing about what distinguished a diagnostic message from other output messages provided by the implementation   ... add something about the diagnostic message being a message issues by the implementation when translating a program that violates the rules of the standard. ...   CWG    REJECTED

Characterizing the output of a translator is essentially a quality-of-implementation issue and beyond the scope of the Standard.  
FR 5 1.3.4 [defns. dynamic.type]   "The dynamic type of an rvalue expression is its static type." Is this true with rvalue references?     CWG  690   
US 5 1.3.5   The wording is unclear as to whether it is the input or the implementation "that is not a well-formed program".   Reword to clarify that it is the input that is here considered not well-formed.   editor     
FR 6 1.3.6 [defns. impl.defined]   There is a page break between the title and the paragraph.     editor     
FR 7 1.3.13 [defns. undefined]   [intro.execution]/5 explicitly allows non causal undefined behaviour,   Adding it to the note outlying possible undefined behaviours.   editor    REJECTED

This is covered by the first alternative in the note, "ignoring the situation completely with unpredictable results".  
US 6 1.3.14   Unspecified behavior does not clearly state whether or not undefined behavior is permitted. (The standard says that "usually, the range of possible behaviors is delineated", but what happens if the range is not delineated? Is a crash, or worse, allowed?)   Clearly state whether or not Unspecified behavior includes undefined behavior.   CWG    REJECTED

The cited text is in a note and thus non-normative. The acceptable range for unspecified behavior is a quality-of-implementation issue.  
FR 8 1.4 [intro. compliance] ¶ 8   The paragraph as its stands seems to require that violations of the ODR (which make a program ill-formed) are required to be diagnosed if the program also uses an extension which defines some cases of ODR.     editor    REJECTED

Yes, that seems to be the intention. That's the mechanism for extensions: issue a diagnostic and then do the extension.

1.5   Missing checklist of implementation defined behaviour (see ISO/IEC TR 10176, 4.1.1p6)   Provide a new annex with the missing checklist   editor     
UK 6
[2]
1.5   Missing annex describing potential incompatibility to previous edition of the standard (see ISO/IEC TR 10176, 4.1.1p9)   Provide a new annex with the missing documentation. See n2733(08-0243) for a starting point   CWG  784   
US 7 1.5 ¶ 2   There is no mention of Clause 17.   Include Clause 17 among the list of Clauses that specify the Standard Library.   editor    ACCEPTED  
US 8 1.5 ¶ 2   The paragraph omits to mention concepts and concept maps among its list of entities defined in the Standard Library.   Mention concepts and concept maps among the list of entities.   editor    ACCEPTED  
US 9 1.6 ¶ 1   The syntax description does not account for lines that wrap.     editor    ACCEPTED  
US 10 1.7 ¶ 3   The term thread is used before defined.   Reference 1.10 [intro.multithread].   editor    ACCEPTED  
US 11 1.7 ¶ ¶ 3 last sent.   The phrase “threads of execution” should be accompanied by a reference to [intro.multithread].   Insert the recommended reference.   editor    ACCEPTED  
US 12 1.7 ¶ ¶ 3 first sent.   A memory location is not an object as the sentence claims.   Clarify that a memory location “holds” an object rather than that it “is” an object.   CWG    ACCEPTED with MODIFICATIONS

This is the definition of the term “memory location” for reference in the following text. The current wording is appropriate for that usage; the formatting will be changed to indicate that the term is being defined.

See paper N2841 
US 13 1.7 ¶ ¶ 3 last sent.   It is unclear what is meant by memory locations that are "separate": are they distinct? non-overlapping? how much "separation" is needed?   Provide either a better definition of “separate” or reword (this and subsequent paragraphs) to avoid this term.   CWG    REJECTED

The current text is clear enough: “separate” in the sense of “distinct” is common usage elsewhere in the Standard.  
US 14 1.7 ¶ ¶ 4   The phrase "no matter what the sizes of the intervening bit-fields happen to be" contradicts the claim of separation "by a zero-length bit-field declaration".   Delete the “no matter…” phrase, or resolve the contradiction in a different way.   CWG    ACCEPTED

See paper N2841 
US 15 1.7 ¶ ¶ 5   A struct does not “contain” memory locations.   Reword so that a struct is “held in” one or more memory locations.   CWG    REJECTED

The phrasing is consistent with the definition of “memory location” given in paragraph 3.  
US 16 1.9   The discussion of observable behavior in 1.9 is not consistent with the addition of threads to the language. Volatile reads and writes and other observable actions no longer occur in a single "sequence”.   Remove/replace various occurrences of "sequence" in 1.9.   CWG  785   
UK 8
[222]
1.9 ¶ 5   With parallel execution there is no longer the idea of a single execution sequence for a program. Instead, a program may be considered a set of exectution sequences.   Update first sentance as: A conforming implementation executing a well-formed program shall produce the same observable behavior as one of the possible SETS OF execution sequences of the corresponding instance of the abstract machine CONFORMING TO THE MEMORY MODEL (1.10) with the same program and the same input.   CWG  785   
UK 7
[218]
1.9 ¶ 6   Does the term 'sequence' imply all reads/writes through volatile memory much be serialized, and cannot occur in parallel on truly parallel hardware? Allow for multiple concurrent sequences where each sequence is constrained by this observable behaviour rule, and multiple sequences are constrained by the memory model and happens-before relationships defined in 1.10   Replace 'sequence' with 'sequences'.   CWG  785   
FR 9 1.9 [intro.execution] ¶ 16   This example use int *v while the other examples seems to use notation like int* v.     editor    ACCEPTED  
US 17 1.10 ¶ 1   This definition of “thread” is poor, and assumes the user already knows what multi-threaded means (probably true!). In particular, it does not deal adequately with the concept that all threads share the same address space.   Replace first sentence of para 1 as follows:
Under a hosted implementation, a C++ program can have more than one thread of execution (a.k.a. thread) running concurrently. Each thread is a single flow of control within a program. Anything whose address may be determined by a thread, including but not limited to static objects, storage obtained via new or by any dynamic allocator, directly addressable storage obtained through implementation-defined functions, and automatic variables, are accessible to all threads in the same program.
 
CWG  786

[133]
2.1 ¶ 2, 4   Undefined behaviour is a drastic way to silently ignore minor issues. The cases in this paragraph could be easily defined. In this case opt for conditionally supported behaviour, which mandates a diagnostic if the compiler is not prepared to handle the syntax consistently.   Replace undefined behaviour with conditionally supported behavior. Conditional behaviour may be implementation defined, although suggest there is a reasonable default in each case. For creating a universal-character name, splice text to create a universal-character. In the case of a file ending without a newline, treat as if the newline was implictly added, with an empty line to follow if the last character was a back-slash.   CWG  787   
UK 10
[134]
2.1 ¶ 3   Implementation defined seems unnecessarily burdensome for negligible gain. I am yet to see code that depended on whether non-empty sequences of whitespace were concatenated. Better left unspecified.   How the compiler treats non-empty sequences of whitespace should be left unspecified, rather than implementation-defined.   CWG    ACCEPTED

See paper N2841 
FR 10 2.1 [lex.phases]/5 and 2.2 [lex.charset]/3   [defns.multibyte] "the extended character set."

[lex.charset]/3 cited below implies that there is an extended character set per locale.

[lex.phases]/5 "Each [...] universal-character-name [...] is converted to the corresponding member of the execution character set"

[lex.charset]/3 "The values of the members of the execution character sets are implementation defined, and any additional members are locale-specific."

Together they seem to imply that what is locale-specific is if a value is valid or not for the current locale, not the representation of a given universal character.

This is not the behaviour of at least some compilers I've access to which are allowing different codes for the same abstract character in different locale. During phase 5, they are using an implementation defined char set.

2.3   Trigraphs are a complicated solution to an old problem, that cause more problems than they solve in the modern environment. Unexpected trigraphs in string literals and occasionally in comments can be very confusing for the non-expert.   Deprecate the whole of 2.3 and move it to appendix D.   CWG  789   
UK 12
[137]
2.4, 2.8 ¶ 2   This undefined behaviour in token concatenation is worrying and we believe hard to justify. An implementation should either support this in a defined way, or issue a diagnosic. Documenting existing practice should not break existing implementations, although unconditionally requiring a diagnostic would lead to more portable programs.   Replace undefined behaviour with conditionally supported behaviour with implementation defined semantics.   CWG  787   
US 18 2.4 ¶ ¶ 2   The paragraph begins with an empty line.   Delete the empty line.   editor    ACCEPTED  
FR 11 2.4 [lex.pptokens] ¶ 3   There are spurious empty lines.     editor    ACCEPTED  
FR 12 2.5 [lex.digraph] and 2.11 [lex.key]/2   The alternative representations are reserved as such even in attribute. Is that what is wanted?     CWG    REJECTED

The current specification is as intended.  
FI 2 2.5 ¶ Table 2   Add eq, for spelling out == in order to distinguish it from the assignment operator.   See eq-keyword.doc, eq-keyword.ppt   CWG    REJECTED

Adding a new keyword would break existing code that uses eq as an identifier.  
UK 13
[138]
2.9 ¶ 2   This text is confusing in isolation, as it implies pp-numbers do not have a value in translation phase 4 when evaluating #if preprocessor expressions.   Add a note with a cross-refernce to 16.1 that a pp-number may briefly acquire a value during translation phase 4 while evaluating #if expressions.   CWG  832

2.13.4 ¶ 10   It would be preferred for attempts to modify string literals to be diagnosable errors. This is not possible due to the deprecated implicit conversion to pointer to null-terminated character sequence of non-const characters. If this deprecated conversion were remove (see other comments) then string literals are always accessed through const types, and the compiler can enforce the no modification rule. The only exception would be using const_cast to cast away constness, but this is already covered under the const_cast rules so needs no further detail here.   (asssuming deprecated conversion to non-const array is removed or can be turned off) Strike the sentence on undefined behaviour.   CWG    REJECTED

The specification covers all attempts to modify the contents of a string literal, including via a pointer to the string when it is not apparent that a string literal is the target. This is consistent with the general treatment of const objects.

2.13.4   The addition of static_assert (7p4) to the language raises the need to concatenate string representations of integral constant expressions (typically from a sizeof or alignof expression) with narrow string literals to provide an informative error message. There is no need to support arbitrary constant expressions and especially not floating point values or formatting flags. Likewise, the need is purely to support static_assert so only narrow string literal support is required, although generalizing to other literal types would be useful.   Define a syntax to support string-ization of integral constant expressions in a form eligible for string literal concatenation, 2.13.4p6. Suggested syntax: I" integral-constant-expression ". There is no raw variant, although it could combine with type specifier in the same way that the R prefix does, supporting u8I, uI, UI and LI.   CWG    REJECTED

JP 9 5.1.1   It would be preferable that “&&” could be specified in a lambda expression to declare move capture.

typedef typename std::result_of<F()>::type result_type;

struct local_task {

local_task(F func_):

local_task(local_task&& other):

local_task task(std::move(f));

std::unique_future<result_type> res(task.promise.get_future());
std::thread(std::move(task));
return res;

This can be rewritten simply as follows if move capture can be used in a lambda expression.

template<typename F>
std::unique_future<typename std::result_of<F()>::type> spawn_task(F f){
typedef typename std::result_of<F()>::type result_type;

std::promise<result_type> promise;

promise.set_exception(std::current_exception());
}
});
return res;

JP 10 5.1.1   In the current syntax definition, a returned type of a function object cannot be obtained by using result_of from an unnamed function object generated by a lambda expression because it doesn’t have result type.

template <class F>
void foo(F f)

foo([]{});

If “Callable” or “Predicate” concept is specified, a returned type can be obtained from a function object without result_type. But it is preferable to be able to obtain it with template.  
Add result_type to the syntax of an unnamed function object generated by a lambda expression.   CWG    REJECTED

This is not a defect. The definition of std::result_of now uses decltype and does not require a result_type member typedef, so the desired functionality is already present in the current specification.

UK 79
[445]
6.5.4   The definition of for (for-range-declaration : expression) statement is expanded in terms which require a Range concept, and the program is ill-formed if <iterator_concepts> isn't included. For users, iterating through old-fashioned arrays, this is a sledge-hammer to crack a nut and compares poorly with other languages. It's also not possible to implement this without adversely impacting the freestanding definition in 17.6.2.4.   When expression is an array a of length N whose length is known at compile time, expand range-for as 'for (... p=a, p!=a+N, p++) ...' without requiring the Range concept or <iterator_concepts>. Also, when expression is an initializer_list, expand range-for similarly without requiring <iterator_concepts>.   CWG    REJECTED

This idea was already considered and rejected, and there was no consensus for changing it now. This suggestion would remove functionality; with the current definition, a user could provide his/her own Range concept for an array with a user-defined type.

int size(const T(&)[N]) { return N; }

int a[] = { 41,42,43,44 };
enum { v = size(a) };  
  CWG    REJECTED

There was no consensus for making this change without a more complete proposal.  
JP 12 7.1.5   It should be allowed to define constexpr recursively.

There is an explanation in N2235, Generalized Constant Expressions—Revision 5, as follows.

We (still) prohibit recursion in all its form in constant expressions. That is not strictly necessary because an implementation limit on recursion depth in constant expression evaluation would save us from the possibility of the compiler recursing forever. However, until we see a convincing use case for recursion, we don’t propose to allow it.

Then, here are the use cases where allowing recursion for constexpr is very useful.

Range of problem to be handled with constexpr would become extended. For example, user defined type (e.g. Complex type) could be placed in ROM area. But with current specification, a function defined with constexpr cannot be called recursively. As a side effect is not allowed in compile-time, it cannot be implemented to repeat anything without recursion. Although it could be implemented without recursion like func0, func1, func2 in an example below, it is not elegant solution.

constexpr double func0(double x) { /* ... */}
constexpr double func1(double x) { /* call for func0 */ }
constexpr double func2(double x) { /* call for func1 */ }
/* ... */

- Compile-time and runtime

As constexpr can be also evaluated both in compile-time and runtime, we need to discuss about both cases.

Runtime evaluation is just to execute it. If you eliminate constexpr keyword, it is executable as of now. Any modern compiler may optimize tail recursion easily.

Compile-time evaluation is the same thing as template recursion. It is necessary to support floating point operation, but it is already possible to calculate it in compile-time, so it’s ok.

- Sample

Here is an example to calculate a square root using constexpr recursively.

/*constexpr*/ double SqrtHelper(double x, double a, int n)
{
return n == 0 ? a : SqrtHelper(x, (x / a + a) / 2.0, n - 1);
}

/*constexpr*/ double Sqrt(double x)
{
return SqrtHelper(x, x, 20);
}

/*constexpr*/ double root2 = Sqrt(2.0); // 1.41421...  
Allow constexpr recursion.   CWG  699

7.1.6.1 ¶ 2   The two normative sentences in this paragraph appear to duplicate text elsewhere - but they aren't exact duplicates, which introduces uncertainty. 1. "An object declared in namespace scope with a const-qualified type has internal linkage unless it is explicitly declared extern or unless it was previously declared to have external linkage.". This nearly repeats 7.1.1/7: "Objects declared const and not explicitly declared extern have internal linkage." The former seems to allow more wiggle room - can an object be "previously declared to have external linkage" without having been "explicitly declared extern"? 2. "A variable of non-volatile const-qualified integral or enumeration type initialized by an integral constant expression can be used in integral constant expressions (5.19)." This nearly duplicates 5.19/2, bullet 4, 1st sub-bullet - "[... an integaral constant expression can use] an lvalue of effective integral type that refers to a non-volatile const variable or static data member initialized with constant expressions". The latter does not allow for lvalues of enumeration type (neither scoped not unscoped enumerations are integral types - 3.9.1/7, and note 44). This seems to be a flaw in 5.19/2.   Make the normative text in this section into one or more notes, with cross references, and correct the referenced text if necessary.   CWG  811

7.1.6.2 ¶ 4   5.1/5 says "[A] parenthesized expression can be used in exactly the same contexts as those where the enclosed expression can be used, and with the same meaning, except as otherwise indicated." When the first bullet point of this paragraph, describing the type denoted by decltype(e), says "if e is an id-expression ... decltype(e) is the type of the entity named by e", 5.1/5 is not excluded, which would imply that decltype((e)) was also the type of e. But the intention appears that it should be caught by the third bullet and treated as an lvalue expression, so decltype((e)) should be a reference to the type of e. Conversely, the second bullet point says "(parentheses around e are ignored)", which is redundant because of 5.1/5.   Insert "unparenthised" in the first bullet point - "if e is an *unparenthised* id-expression ...". In the second bullet point, move "(parentheses around e are ignored)" into a note.   CWG    ACCEPTED with MODIFICATIONS

7.1.6.4 ¶ 4   (See also c++std-core-13583) This paragraph allows auto "in the type-specifier-seq in a new-type-id (5.3.4)" (and nowhere else not listed). Specifically, it isn't allowed in a type-id in a new-expression. That allows "new auto (42)", but not "new (auto)(42)". However, 5.3.4/2 suggests the latter should be allowed "If the auto type-specifier appears in the type-specifier-seq of a new-type-id or type-id of a new-expression ...". The inconsistency should be resolved, ideally in favour of allowing both forms.   Change "in a new-type-id" to "in a new-type-id or type-id in a new-expression".   CWG  746   
FR 24 7.1.6.4 [auto specifier]   Now that 'auto' is finally used in its most obvious sense to state `deduce the type of this variable from initializer', it should also be allowed in template parameter declarations, as in

instead of the current, often verbose and cumbersome

template<typename T, T n> struct X { /* … */ };

X<int,903> x;

X<void (Widget::*)(),&Widget::callback> y;

We understand that 'auto' is used in 14.1/18 in a different way (for constrained template), but that usable appears very strange syntax, unnatural and does not fit well with the usage in this section.

This statement implies that the base may be omitted for scoped enumerations, which is somewhat inconsistent with paragraph 3 and somewhat consistent with paragraph 5.   As this implication leaves no representation, it should be either affirmed here or the statement should be expanded. Perhaps a note is warranted.   CWG    REJECTED

The current specification is consistent. A scoped enumeration with an omitted enum-base has an underlying type of int.  
JP 13 7.2 ¶ para 3   In the description for an unscoped enumeration, enum-base in redeclaration must be the same underlying type as in the 1st declaration, but it is not described explicitly, while it is referred that all enum-bases in redeclarations must specify the same underlying type.   Replace the description, "same underlying type", with "same as underlying type of (previous) declaration."   editor    ACCEPTED

US 45 8.3.5 ¶ 13   At present, function parameter packs can only occur at the end of a parameter-declaration-list. This restriction unnecessarily prohibits uses of function parameter packs in cases where template argument deduction isn’t needed, e.g.,

template<class... T> struct X { };

template<class... T1, class... T2>
struct X<pair<T1, T2>...> {
void f(T1..., T2...);
};

More importantly, this restriction is inconsistent with the way pack expansions are handled. For example, this template is well-formed (but X<T..., int> is a non-deduced context):

template<class... T> void f(X<T..., int>);

Therefore, the restriction that limits function parameter packs to the end of the parameter-declaration-list should be removed. Instead, function parameter packs not at the end of the parameter-declaration-list should be considered non-deduced contexts.  
In 8.3.5p13, remove the sentence “A function parameter pack, if present, shall occur at the end of the parameter-declaration-list.”

US 46 8.5.3   The ability for an rvalue reference to bind to an lvalue opens a type-safety hole that becomes very dangerous with concepts. For example, consider vector’s push_back operation:

requires MoveConstructible<T> void push_back(T&&);

requires CopyConstructible<T> void push_back(const T&);

For a copy-constructible T (which is also move-constructible), push_back does the right thing. However, if T is something that is move-constructible (e.g., unique_ptr<int>), the second overload is removed from considered (it is effectively SFINAE’d away), so only the first overload remains. Therefore, one could accidentally call push_back with an lvalue of type T, and push_back would silently move from the lvalue. The same problem occurs without concepts (albeit less frequently).  
Prohibit rvalue references from binding to lvalues.

Unfortunately this change will break some current use cases of rvalue reference including the use of rvalue streams, and of the forward function itself. To resolve this we may want to consider three types of references:
  1. The current reference.
  2. A non-const reference that only binds to rvalues.
  3. A non-const reference that will bind to both lvalues and rvalues.
Still another solution would be to adopt the “deleted function” solution for all functions. This solution is described in comment for 12.1, 12.4, 12.8, but restricted to special functions in that comment. (See US NN).

US 50 12.1, 12.4, 12.8   Implicitly-declared default constructors, destructors, copy constructors, and copy assignment operators are deleted when their definitions would be ill-formed. However, unlike with overloading and template argument deduction, access control is performed as part of the check for making one of these special function deleted. This inconsistency should be removed.

This change would sacrifice some backward compatibility in favor of consistency. With the current wording, checking that the following class ‘A’ is CopyConstructible would proceed without error (it is not CopyConstructible):

class A { A(const A&); };

With the proposed change, testing whether A is CopyConstructible would produce a diagnostic. To fix the problem, the user would have to use a deleted function:

class A { A(const A&) = delete; };  
In 12.1p5, remove the phrase “or inaccessible from the implicitly-declared default constructor”.

template<ObjectType T> class vector {
T* first, last, end;
public:
requires CopyConstructible<T> vector(const vector&);
};

If instantiated with a type that is not CopyConstructible, vector will get an implicitly-defined copy constructor that performs a copy of the pointers.  
Add to 14.5.1p5:

If the constrained member is a copy constructor (12.8), destructor (12.4), or copy assignment operator and its template requirements are not satisfied, then a copy constructor, destructor, or copy assignment operator, respectively, with the same signature as the constrained member (after substituting the class template’s template arguments for its template parameters) will be declared as a deleted function (8.4).

The use of the '==' and '!=' with completely new semantics, unrelated to anything we have seen before in C++ is both unwise and confusing, especially if the types involved in the expressions happen to have operator== and operator!= defined.

We strongly suggest use of different tokens, e.g. , and opposed to this obscure usage/overload.

The description is very vague. How many times is an implementation permitted to replace one expression by another one when they have side effects?

DE 15 14.9.1.4   DE-15 There is no implementation experience for axioms. Use of axioms is an area of active scientific research. It is likely that syntax changes will become necessary to make good use of axioms; having the syntax space already crowded is unhelpful. Axioms ought to be useful in concepts applicable to floating-point types (such as EqualityComparable), but IEEE floating-point types have special values such as NaN violating the axioms.   Remove section 14.9.1.4 and any reference to axioms in the rest of the proposed standard other than the keyword reservation in section 2.11.   CWG

14.9.1.4   auto concepts and axioms are incompatible. An axiom defines the semantics of an operaton or set of operations that describes the run time behaviour. A concept describes purely syntactic requirements at compile time. Where an auto concept will match anything that meets the syntax requirements, there is no way to know if the axioms will be met or not, and no way to opt out via some kind of negative concept map.   Add a paragraph making axioms ill-formed inside an auto concept.   CWG

14.9.1.4 ¶ 2   The implicit equality comparison operator available to axioms has no semantic. It is not clear what expressing the condition if( a == b ) { conditional-axiom } would mean if a and b are not truly EqualityComparable. We suspect the intent of the 'implicit defefinition' is to support declaring the equivalence of statements, a context where the operator will not actually be evaluated.   Define the semantics of the implicitly declared comparison operators, or restrict their usage to declaring equivalence between statements.   CWG

14.9.4 ¶ 4   It is surprising for many people that non-copyable move-only types can be used with a return statement, and so Returnable does not always imply CopyConstructible.   A non-normative note: [Note: 'move only' types that are constructible from rvalue references may be Returnable, but not CopyConstructible(20.1.8) - end note]   editor    ACCEPTED  
JP 20 14.9.4 ¶ 2nd para   Trivially copyable type was added in “3.9 Types”, so we think that it is necessary to add concept to trivially copyable type like “TriviallyCopyableType”.   Add TriviallyCopyableType that is trivially copyable type as concept.   CWG  825   
UK 129
[128]
14.10.1, 20.1.2   It should be possible to support boolean constant expressions as requirements without resorting to defining the True concept in the library. Boolean expressions are very likely to be constraints when deadline with non-type template parameters and variadic templates, and constraints in these cases should feel just as natural as constraints on the type system.   Remove the True concept and library subclause 20.1.2. Provide support in 14.10.1 for boolean constant expressions as constraints. This may involve overloading the true keyword to disambiguate but ideally would not.   CWG  826   
US 60 14.10.1 ¶ 1   The use of && as the separator for a list of requirements has shown itself to be a serious teachability problem. The mental model behind ‘&&’ treats concepts as simple predicates, which ignores the role of concepts in type-checking templates. The more programmers read into the ‘&&’ (and especially try to fake || with && and !), the harder it is for them to understand the role of concept maps. Simply changing the separator to ‘,’ would eliminate a significant source of confusion.   Replace

requirement-list:
requirement-list ... [opt] && requirement
requirement ... [opt]

with

requirement-list
requirement-list ...[opt] , requirement
requirement ... [opt]

In 14.5.4p6, replace the first sentence with:

The instantiation of an expansion produces a comma-separated list E1, E2, ..., EN, where N is the number of elements in the pack expansion parameters.

15.1 ¶ 4   With the new crrent_exception API it is possible to capture a reference to an exception that will outlive its last active handler. That is in conflict with the sentance "When the last remaining active handler for the exception exits by any means other than throw; the temporary object is destroyed and the implementation may deallocate the memory for the temporary object;"   Update sentence to allow for exceptions held in excpetion_ptr objects.   CWG  828

15.3 ¶ 16   There are obscure cases whrere a copy constructor is not usually the best match to copy-initialize an object, e.g. A converting constructor template taking arguments by non-const reference. A footnote explaining such cases would be helpful, or the sentance could be rewritten using copy-initialization instead of directly calling a copy constructor.   Rewite using copy-initialization rather than directly invoking the copy constructor   CWG    ACCEPTED

15.4 ¶ 6   The sentance "An exception-specification can also include the class std::bad_exception (18.7.2.1)." is redundant.   Either strike the quoted sentance, or add a note explaining why it is worth calling special attention to this class.   editor    ACCEPTED

UK 136
[40]
15.4   Exception specifications have proven close to worthless in practice, while adding a measurable overhead to programs. The feature should be deprecated. The one exception to the rule is the empty throw specification which could serve a legitimate optimizing role if the requirement to call the runtime unexpected mechanism was relaxed in this case.   Move 15.4 and the parts of 15.5 that refer to it to Appendix D. Replace 15.4 with a simpler specification for empty throw specifications, where the std::unexpected call is conditionally supported allowing vendors to choose between optimizing and providing runtime checks. Ideally require vendors to provide a mode where the runtime checks are always disabled.   CWG  830

They're subtly different. The first bullet is about calls made to create, copy, and destroy the exception object itself. The third bullet is about destructors of stack objects during stack unwinding.

US 63 17-30   The behavior of the library in the presence of threads is incompletely specified.

For example, if thread 1 assigns to X, then writes data to file f, which is read by thread 2, and then accesses variable X, is thread 2 guaranteed to be able to see the value assigned to X by thread 1? In other words, does the write of the data "happen before" the read?

Another example: does simultaneous access using operator at() to different characters in the same non-const string really introduce a data race?

DE 2 17 through 30   DE-2 Marking a constructor with "explicit" has semantics even for a constructor with zero or several parameters: Such a constructor cannot be used with list-initialization in a copy-initialization context, see 13.3.1.7. The standard library apparently has not been reviewed for marking non-single-parameter constructors as "explicit".   Consider marking zero-parameter and multi-parameter constructors "explicit" in classes that have at least one constructor marked "explicit" and that do not have an initializer-list constructor.   LWG

The terms "narrow-oriented iostream classes" and "wide-oriented iostream classes" are never used in the standard (except in a somewhat garbled passage that I have rewritten without them), so rather than proliferate definitions of unused terms, I've removed the original culprits.

17.3   The addition of move semantics to the language means that many library APIs leave an object in a safely-destructible state, where no other operations can safely be performed unless it is assigned a new value. Library presentation would be simplified and made more precise if we introduce a term for this state. By analogy with singular iterators suggest the term 'singular object' or 'the object is in a singular state'.   Define 'singular state' such that an object with a singular state can only be assigned to or safely destroyed. Assiging a new value typically removes the singular state. Note that objects with a singular state may not be safely copied, so you cannot put an object into a singular state by copying another object in a singular state. Use this new term in the postcondition of all library APIs that move from an rvalue reference. It might also be used to simplify the definition of singular iterator to an iterator value with a singular state.   editor

FR 32 18.2.1 [Numeric limits]   The definition of numeric_limits<> as requiring a regular type is both conceptually wrong and operationally illogical. As we pointed before, this mistake needs to be corrected. For example, the template can be left unconstrained. In fact this reflects a much more general problem with concept_maps/axioms and their interpretations. It appears that the current text heavily leans toward experimental academic type theory.   We suggest that a more pragmatic approach, in the spirit of C and C++, be taken so that calls to constrained function templates are interpreted as assertions on *values*, not necessarily semantics assertions on the carrier type.   LWG  902   
DE 16 18.2.1   DE-16 The class template numeric_limits should not specify the Regular concept requirement for its template parameter, because it contains functions returning NaN values for floating-point types; these values violate the semantics of EqualityComparable. See also library issue 902 in WG21 document N2794 "C++ Standard Library Active Issues List (Revision R60)", available at http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2008/n2794.html .   Specify a concept requirement with fewer constraints as appropriate, for example SemiRegular.   LWG  902

DE 18 18.4   DE-18 The proposed C++ standard makes a considerable number of existing programs that have well-defined behavior according to ISO/IEC 14882:2003 have undefined behavior without a diagnostic hint to the programmer at all. This applies to the presence of threads and to pointer safety (the latter was introduced to support garbage collection). In order to avoid requiring a full code review for user code, facilities should be present that allow the compile-time detection of the advanced features of the proposed C++ standard. It is expected that C++ implementations will provide a means (for example, a command-line switch) to turn off either or both of threads and garbage collection support, turning potentially undefined programs into well-defined ones. Note: This issue is contributing significantly to Germany's overall “no” vote.   Consider applying the changes proposed in WG21 document N2693 "Requirements on programs and backwards compatibility", available at http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2008/n2693.html .   LWG

JP 38 20.6.12.1.3   add the move requirement for bind's return type.

For example, assume following th1 and th2,

void f(vector<int> v) { } vector<int> v{ ... }; thread th1([v]{ f(v); }); thread th2(bind(f, v)); When function object are set to thread, v is moved to th1's lambda expression in a Move Constructor of lambda expression becuase th1's lambda expression has a Move Constructor. But bind of th2's return type doesn't have the requirement of Move, so it may not moved but copied.

Add the requirement of move to get rid of this useless copy.

And also, add the MoveConstructible as well as CopyConstructible.  
Add the following requirements. "it has a public move constructor that performs a member-wise move."

std::reference_closure is a premature optimization that provides a limited subset of the functionality of std::function intended to improve performance in a narrow use case. However, the “parallel application performance” benchmark used to motivate the inclusion of std::reference_closure was flawed in several ways:


  1. it failed to enable a common optimization in std::function (implemented by all vendors), exacting a large and unrealistic penalty for copying std::function instances, and


  2. it failed to account for parallel scheduler overhead or realistically-sized work units, both of which would dominate the costs measured by the benchmark in any realistic application.

US 74.1 20.8   Scoped allocators represent a poor trade-off for standardization, since (1) scoped-allocator--aware containers can be implemented outside the C++ standard library but used with its algorithms, (2) scoped allocators only benefit a tiny proportion of the C++ community (since few C++ programmers even use today’s allocators), and (3) all C++ users, especially the vast majority of the C++ community that won’t ever use scoped allocators are forced to cope with the interface complexity introduced by scoped allocators. In essence, the larger community will suffer to support a very small subset of the community who can already implement their own data structures outside of the standard library. Therefore, scoped allocators should be removed from the working paper.

Some evidence of the complexity introduced by scoped allocators:

20.3.3, 20.5: large increase in the number of pair and tuple constructors

23: confusing “AllocatableElement” requirements throughout.

US 77 20.8.4   Allocator-specific move and copy behavior for containers (N2525) complicates a little-used and already-complicated portion of the standard library (allocators), and breaks the conceptual model of move-constructor and move-assignment operations on standard containers being efficient operations. The extensions for allocator-specific move and copy behavior should be removed from the working paper.

With the introduction of rvalue references, we are teaching programmers that moving from a standard container (e.g., a vector<string>) is an efficient, constant-time operation. The introduction of N2525 removed that guarantee; depending on the behavior of four different traits (20.8.4), the complexity of copy and move operations can be constant or linear time. This level of customization greatly increases the complexity of standard containers, and benefits only a tiny fraction of the C++ community.

FI 5 22.2.1.4.2 ¶ #3   [ Note: As a result of operations on state, it can return ok or partial and set next == from and to_next != to. —end note ]

"next" should be "from_next."

Also, the sentence applies to all the examples, including do_in and do_out.

Reasoning: When reading one element of multibyte source data such as UTF-8, it is possible that from_next is incremented, to_next is unaltered, state is altered and return value is partial. When reading one element of wide character data, the output can be several multibyte characters, so it is possible that from_next is unaltered, to_next is advanced, state is altered and return value is partial.

codecvt_byname is only specified to work with locale names. There is no built-in means to find a codecvt with a character set's name. A locale and a character set are not the same. If the user has data which is encoded in a certain character set and she wants to create a codecvt which can convert from that character set to another one, she must iterate through locales to find one, or use external means (iconv, ICU's uconv). Specifying a locale with the character set is not a suitable solution, since there is no built-in mapping from character sets to locales. It is only possible to inquire the character set once the locale is known.   There should be a built-in means to find a codecvt with a pair of character set names.   LWG     
FI 7 22.2.1.4 ¶ 1,2,3   The word "codeset" is used, whereas the word "character set" is used elsewhere in the text. The words are intended to convey the same concept, so only one should be used (or always both together).   Change "codeset" to "character set."   editor    ACCEPTED

23   It is not clear what purpose the Requirement tables serve in the Containers clause. Are they the definition of a library Container? Or simply a conventient shorthand to factor common semantics into a single place, simplifying the description of each subsequent container? This becomes an issue for 'containers' like array, which does not meet the default-construct-to-empty requirement, or forward_list which does not support the size operation. Are these components no longer containers? Does that mean the remaining requirements don't apply? Or are these contradictions that need fixing, despite being a clear design decision?   Clarify all the tables in 23.1 are there as a convenience for documentation, rather than a strict set of requirements. Containers should be allowed to relax specific requirements if they call attention to them in their documentation. The introductory text for array should be expanded to mention a default constructed array is not empty, and forward_list introduction should mention it does not provide the required size operation as it cannot be implemented efficiently.   LWG  1034

23.1.6.1 ¶ 12   The axiom EmplacePushEquivalence should be asserting the stronger contract that emplace and insert return the same iterator value, not just iterators that dereference to the same value. This is a similar statement that is easier to express and should be equivalent - the idea that insert and emplace might return iterator values that do not compare equal but point to the same element should fail somewhere in the iterator concepts. Also, this axiom should be renamed to reflect its connection with insert, rather than push_front/push_back,   Remove the * to deference the returned iterator either side of the == in the EmplacePushEquivalence axiom, rename the axiom EmplacementInsertionEquivalence : requires InsertionContainer<C> && Constructible<value_type, Args...> axiom EmplacementInsertionEquivalence(C c, const_iterator position, Args... args) { emplace(c, position, args...) == insert(c, position, value_type(args...)); }   LWG

However this constraint has been lost in the Concepts of C++0x. This applies to vector and array (it actually applies to string also, but that's a different chapter, so I'll file a separate comment there and cross-reference).   Define a ContiguousStrorage and apply it to vector,array and string. The Concept (supplied by Alisdair M) looks like this: Concept< typename C > ContiguousStrorage { requires Container<C>; typename value_type = C::value_type; value_type * data( C ); axiom Contiguous { C c; true = equal_ranges( data( c), data(c) + size(c), begin(c)); } };   LWG  1042

JP 60 24.1.8 ¶ 1st para   Capability of an iterator is too much restricted by concept.

Concept of std::Range is defined as:

concept Range<typename T> {
InputIterator iterator;
iterator begin(T&);
iterator end(T&);
}

So the following code generates an error.

template <std::Range Rng>
void sort(Rng& r)
{
// error! Rng::iterator does not satisfy requirements of a random
// access iterator.
std::sort(begin(r), end(r));
}

std::vector<int> v; // vector::iterator is a random access iterator.
sort(v);

This is because the concept of an iterator of std::Range is InputIterator. For this reason, a random access iterator loses its capability when passed to a std::Range parameter.

To be able to work the above code, we need to write as follows:

template <std::Range T>
requires std::RandomAccessIterator<T::iterator> &&
std::ShuffleIterator<T::iterator> &&
std::LessThanComparable<T::iterator::value_type>
void sort(T& r)
{
sort(begin(r), end(r));
}

std::vector<int> v;
sort(v);

It needs quiet a few amount of codes like this only to recover random access capability from InputIterator concept.

We can write the following valid code with Boost.Range, which is implemented with using C++03 SFINAE.

template <class Range>
void sort(Range& r)
{
std::sort(boost::begin(r), boost::end(r));
}

std::vector<int> v;
sort(v); // OK

One of the motivation to introduce concepts are supporting template programming techniques by language directly to eliminate hacky techniques such as tag-dispatch, SFINAE and Type Traints. But SFINAE will be kept using because it needs quite a few amount of codes without using SFAINAE.

24.4   reverse_iterator and move_iterator use different formulations for their comparison operations. move_iterator merely requires the minimal set of operations, < and ==, from its underlying iterator and synthesizes all oprations from these two. reverse_iterator relies on the undelying iterator to support all comparision operations directly. In practice, move_iterator can only be implemented this way as it must support iterator types that are merely InputIterators, and so SemiRegular and not Regular. However, reserse_iterator has an existing specification and any change of semantic could change behaviour of conforming programs today - although an iterator that yields different results for (a > b) than (b < a) may fall foul of some semantic consistency requirements, even if the syntax is met.   Rephrase the reverse_iterator comparison operations using only operators < and ==, as per the move_iterator specification.   LWG    REJECTED

24.4.1.2.1 ¶ 1   The default constructor default-initializes current, rather than value-initializes. This means that when Iterator corresponds to a trivial type, the current member is left un-initialized, even when the user explictly requests value intialization! At this point, it is not safe to perform any operations on the reverse_iterator other than assign it a new value or destroy it. Note that this does correspond to the basic definition of a singular iterator.   i/ Specify value initialization rather than default intialization or ii/ specify = default; rather than spell out the semantic. This will at least allow users to select value initialization and copy the iterator value. or iii/ Add a note to the description emphasizing the singular nature of a value-initialized reserve iterator.   LWG  1012

24.4.1.2.1 ¶ 3   There is an inconsistency between the constructor taking an iterator and the constructor template taking a reverse_iterator where one passes by value, and the other by const reference.

28.12.2   It was always expected that regex_token_iterator would be constructible from an array literal: indeed ideally this is the prefered method of initializing such an object.

30   Throughout this clause, the term Requires: is used to introduce compile time requirements, which we expect to be replaced with concepts and requires in code. Run-time preconditions are introduced with the term "Preconditions:" which is not a defined part of the library documentation structure (17.5.2.4). However, this is exactly the direction that BSI would like to see the organisation move, replacing Requires: clauses with Preconditions: clasues throught the library. See comment against clause 17 for more details.   Decument Preconditions: paragraphs in 17.5.2.4, and use consistently through rest of the library.   editor     
US 94 30.1.2 ¶ 1   The first sentence of para 1 suggests that no other library function is permitted to call operating system or low level APIs.   Rewrite para 1 as: “ Some functions described in this Clause are specified to throw exceptions of type system_error (19.4.5 ).

30.2.1 ¶ 1   The presence of a non-explicit variadic template constructor alongside an explicit single-argument constructor can lead to behaviour that is not intended: the variadic constructor will be selected for implicit conversions, defeating the purpose of the explicit single-argument constructor. Additionally the single-argument constructor is redundant; the variadic constructor can provide identical functionality with one *fewer* copies if the supplied func is an lvalue.   Mark constructor template <class F, class ...Args> thread(F&& f, Args&&... args); as explicit and remove the single-argument constructor.   LWG  929  ACCEPTED

30.3.3.2.1 ¶ 7   The precondition that the mutex is not owned by this thread offers introduces the risk of un-necessary undefined behaviour into the program. The only time it matters whether the current thread owns the mutex is in the lock operation, and that will happen subsequent to construction in this case. The lock operation has the identical pre-condition, so there is nothing gained by asserting that precondition earlier and denying the program the right to get into a valid state before calling lock.   Strike 30.3.3.2.1p7   LWG  1045  ACCEPTED

30.3.3.2.2 ¶ 4, 9, 14, 19   Not clear what the specification for error condition resource_deadlock_would_occur means. It is perfectly possible for this thread to own the mutex without setting owns to true on this specific lock object. It is also possible for lock operations to succeed even if the thread does own the mutex, if the mutex is recursive. Likewise, if the mutex is not recursive and the mutex has been locked externally, it is not always possible to know that this error condition should be raised, depending on the host operating system facilities. It is possible that 'i.e.' was supposed to be 'e.g.' and that suggests that recursive locks are not allowed. That makes sense, as the exposition-only member owns is boolean and not a integer to count recursive locks.   Add a precondition !owns. Change the 'i.e.' in the error condition to be 'e.g.' to allow for this condition to propogate deadlock detection by the host OS.   LWG

30.5   future, promise and packaged_task provide a framework for creating future values, but a simple function to tie all three components together is missing. Note that we only need a *simple* facility for C++0x. Advanced thread pools are to be left for TR2.   Provide a simple function along the lines of: template< typename F, typename ... Args > requires Callable< F, Args... > future< Callable::result_type > async( F&& f, Args && ... ); Semantics are similar to creating a thread object with a packaged_task invoking f with forward<Args>(args...) but details are left unspecified to allow different scheduling and thread spawning implementations. It is unspecified whether a task submitted to async is run on its own thread or a thread previously used for another async task. If a call to async succeeds, it shall be safe to wait for it from any thread. The state of thread_local variables shall be preserved during async calls. No two incomplete async tasks shall see the same value of this_thread::get_id(). [Note: this effectively forces new tasks to be run on a new thread, or a fixed-size pool with no queue. If the library is unable to spawn a new thread or there are no free worker threads then the async call should fail.]   LWG  1046

30.5.4   It is not clear without reference to the original proposal how to use a future. In particular, the only way for the user to construct a future is via the promise API which is documented after the presentation of future.

30.5.4   std::unique_future is MoveConstructible, so you can transfer the association with an asynchronous result from one instance to another. However, there is no way to determine whether or not an instance has been moved from, and therefore whether or not it is safe to wait for it. std::promise<int> p; std::unique_future<int> uf(p.get_future()); std::unique_future<int> uf2(std::move(uf)); uf.wait(); // oops, uf has no result to wait for.   Add a "waitable()" function to unique_future (and shared_future) akin to std::thread::joinable(), which returns true if there is an associated result to wait for (whether or not it is ready).

30.5.4   It is possible to transfer ownership of the asynchronous result from one unique_future instance to another via the move-constructor. However, it is not possible to transfer it back, and nor is it possible to create a default-constructed unique_future instance to use as a later move target. This unduly limits the use of unique_future in code. Also, the lack of a move-assignment operator restricts the use of unique_future in containers such as std::vector - vector::insert requires move-assignable for example.   Add a default constructor with the semantics that it creates a unique_future with no associated asynchronous result. Add a move-assignment operator which transfers ownership.   LWG

Users will then write work-arounds to provide this behaviour. We should provide it simply and efficiently as part of shared_future. Note that since the shared_future member functions for accessing the state are all declared const, the original usage of an immutable shared_future value that can be freely copied by multiple threads can be retained by declaring such an instance as "const shared_future".   Remove "=delete" from the copy-assignment operator of shared_future. Add a move-constructor shared_future(shared_future&& rhs), and a move-assignment operator shared_future& operator=(shared_future&& rhs). The postcondition for the copy-assignment operator is that *this has the same associated state as rhs. The postcondition for the move-constructor and move assignment is that *this has the same associated as rhs had before the constructor/assignment call and that rhs has no associated state.   LWG
