    The synopsis of the header <utility> in 20.3 [utility] -lists the complete set of equality and relational operators for pair -but the section describing the template and the operators only describes -operator==() and operator<(), and it fails to mention -any requirements on the template arguments.

    -The issue is a lack of wording specifying the semantics of std::pair -relational operators. The rationale is that this is covered by -catch-all wording in the relops component, and that as relops directly -precedes pair in the document this is an easy connection to make. -

    -In section 24.2.4 [bidirectional.iterators], -Table 75 gives the return type of *r-- as convertible to T. This is -not consistent with Table 74 which gives the return type of *r++ as -T&. *r++ = t is valid while *r-- = t is invalid. +condition_variable::wait takes a unique_lock<mutex>. We +know whether or not a unique_lock owns a lock, through use of its +owns_lock() member.

    +

    -Discussion from the Copenhagen meeting: the first part is -uncontroversial. The second part, operator[] for Random Access -Iterators, requires more thought. There are reasonable arguments on -both sides. Return by value from operator[] enables some potentially -useful iterators, e.g. a random access "iota iterator" (a.k.a -"counting iterator" or "int iterator"). There isn't any obvious way -to do this with return-by-reference, since the reference would be to a -temporary. On the other hand, reverse_iterator takes an -arbitrary Random Access Iterator as template argument, and its -operator[] returns by reference. If we decided that the return type -in Table 76 was correct, we would have to change -reverse_iterator. This change would probably affect user -code. +Modify the first sentence of 30.5.1 [thread.condition.condvar] p9:

In N0527 -reverse_iterator's operator[] returns by value, but in HPL-95-11 -(R.1), and in the STL implementation that HP released to the public, -reverse_iterator's operator[] returns by reference. In 1995, the -standard was amended to reflect the contents of HPL-95-11 (R.1). The -original intent for operator[] is unclear. -

    Further discussion: I propose a compromise between John Potter's -resolution, which requires T& as the return type of -a[n], and the current wording, which requires convertible to -T. The compromise is to keep the convertible to T -for the return type of the expression a[n], but to also add -a[n] = t as a valid expression. This compromise "saves" the -common case uses of random access iterators, while at the same time -allowing iterators such as counting iterator and caching file -iterators to remain random access iterators (iterators where the -lifetime of the object returned by operator*() is tied to the -lifetime of the iterator). +

    Discussion:

    -

    -I've been discussing iterator semantics with Dave Abrahams, and a -surprise has popped up. I don't think this has been discussed before. -

    - -

    -X [iterator.concepts] says that the only operation that can be performed on "singular" -iterator values is to assign a non-singular value to them. (It -doesn't say they can be destroyed, and that's probably a defect.) -Some implementations have taken this to imply that there is no need -to initialize the data member of a reverse_iterator<> in the default -constructor. As a result, code like -

    -
      std::vector<std::reverse_iterator<char*> > v(7);
    -  v.reserve(1000);
    -
    -

    -invokes undefined behavior, because it must default-initialize the -vector elements, and then copy them to other storage. Of course many -other vector operations on these adapters are also left undefined, -and which those are is not reliably deducible from the standard. -

    - -

    -I don't think that 24.1 was meant to make standard-library iterator -types unsafe. Rather, it was meant to restrict what operations may -be performed by functions which take general user- and standard -iterators as arguments, so that raw pointers would qualify as -iterators. However, this is not clear in the text, others have come -to the opposite conclusion. -

    - -

    -One question is whether the standard iterator adaptors have defined -copy semantics. Another is whether they have defined destructor -semantics: is -

    -
      { std::vector<std::reverse_iterator<char*> >  v(7); }
    -
    -

    -undefined too? -

    - -

    -Note this is not a question of whether algorithms are allowed to -rely on copy semantics for arbitrary iterators, just whether the -types we actually supply support those operations. I believe the -resolution must be expressed in terms of the semantics of the -adapter's argument type. It should make clear that, e.g., the -reverse_iterator<T> constructor is actually required to execute -T(), and so copying is defined if the result of T() is copyable. -

    - -

    -Issue 235, which defines reverse_iterator's default -constructor more precisely, has some relevance to this issue. -However, it is not the whole story. -

    - -

    -The issue was whether -

    -
      reverse_iterator() { }
    -
    -

    -is allowed, vs. -

    -
      reverse_iterator() : current() { }
    -
    - -

    -The difference is when T is char*, where the first leaves the member -uninitialized, and possibly equal to an existing pointer value, or -(on some targets) may result in a hardware trap when copied. -

    - -

    -8.5 paragraph 5 seems to make clear that the second is required to -satisfy DR 235, at least for non-class Iterator argument -types. -

    - -

    -But that only takes care of reverse_iterator, and doesn't establish -a policy for all iterators. (The reverse iterator adapter was just -an example.) In particular, does my function -

    -
      template <typename Iterator>
    -    void f() { std::vector<Iterator>  v(7); } 
    -
    -

    -evoke undefined behavior for some conforming iterator definitions? -I think it does, now, because vector<> will destroy those singular -iterator values, and that's explicitly disallowed. -

    - -

    -24.1 shouldn't give blanket permission to copy all singular iterators, -because then pointers wouldn't qualify as iterators. However, it -should allow copying of that subset of singular iterator values that -are default-initialized, and it should explicitly allow destroying any -iterator value, singular or not, default-initialized or not. -

    -Just as a regular pointer to an array guarantees that there is a pointer -value pointing past the last element of the array, so for any iterator -type there is an iterator value that points past the last element of a -corresponding container. These values are called past-the-end values. -Values of an iterator i for which the expression *i is defined are called -dereferenceable. The library never assumes that past-the-end values are -dereferenceable. Iterators can also have singular values that are not -associated with any container. [Example: After the declaration of an -uninitialized pointer x (as with int* x;), x must always be assumed to -have a singular value of a pointer. — end example] Results of most -expressions are undefined for singular values; the only exceptions are -destroying an iterator that holds a singular value and the assignment of -a non-singular value to an iterator that holds a singular value. In this -case the singular value is overwritten the same way as any other value. -Dereferenceable values are always non-singular. -

    -

    -After value-initialization, any iterator that satisfies the -DefaultConstructible requirements ([defaultconstructible]) shall not introduce undefined behaviour -when used as the -source of a copy or move operation, even if it would -otherwise be singular.

    Discussion:

    -

    -The requirements specified in Stage 2 and reiterated in the rationale -of DR 221 (and echoed again in DR 303) specify that num_get<charT>:: -do_get() compares characters on the stream against the widened elements -of "012...abc...ABCX+-" -

    - -

    -An implementation is required to allow programs to instantiate the num_get -template on any charT that satisfies the requirements on a user-defined -character type. These requirements do not include the ability of the -character type to be equality comparable (the char_traits template must -be used to perform tests for equality). Hence, the num_get template cannot -be implemented to support any arbitrary character type. The num_get template -must either make the assumption that the character type is equality-comparable -(as some popular implementations do), or it may use char_traits<charT> to do -the comparisons (some other popular implementations do that). This diversity -of approaches makes it difficult to write portable programs that attempt to -instantiate the num_get template on user-defined types. -

    - -

    [Kona: the heart of the problem is that we're theoretically - supposed to use traits classes for all fundamental character - operations like assignment and comparison, but facets don't have - traits parameters. This is a fundamental design flaw and it - appears all over the place, not just in this one place. It's not - clear what the correct solution is, but a thorough review of facets - and traits is in order. The LWG considered and rejected the - possibility of changing numeric facets to use narrowing instead of - widening. This may be a good idea for other reasons (see issue - 459), but it doesn't solve the problem raised by this - issue. Whether we use widen or narrow the num_get facet - still has no idea which traits class the user wants to use for - the comparison, because only streams, not facets, are passed traits - classes. The standard does not require that two different - traits classes with the same char_type must necessarily - have the same behavior.]

    - - -

    Informally, one possibility: require that some of the basic -character operations, such as eq, lt, -and assign, must behave the same way for all traits classes -with the same char_type. If we accept that limitation on -traits classes, then the facet could reasonably be required to -use char_traits<charT>.

    - -

    -The standard fails to specify the behavior of valarray::operator[](slice) -and other valarray subset operations when they are passed an "invalid" -slice object, i.e., either a slice that doesn't make sense at all (e.g., -slice (0, 1, 0) or one that doesn't specify a valid subset of the valarray -object (e.g., slice (2, 1, 1) for a valarray of size 1). -

    - - -
    -The resolution to LWG issue 430 has not been applied --- there have been -changes to the underlying text, and the resolution needs to be reworked. -
    - - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -

    -Insert after 26.6.2.4 [valarray.sub], paragraph 1: -

    - -
    -

    -The member operator is overloaded to provide several ways to select -sequences -of elements from among those controlled by *this. The first group of five -member operators work in conjunction with various overloads of operator= -(and other assigning operators) to allow selective replacement (slicing) of -the controlled sequence. The selected elements must exist. -

    -

    -The first member operator selects element off. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -v0[3] = 'A';
    -// v0 == valarray<char>("abcAefghijklmnop", 16)
    -
    - -

    -The second member operator selects those elements of the controlled sequence -designated by slicearr. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -valarray<char> v1("ABCDE", 5);
    -v0[slice(2, 5, 3)] = v1;
    -// v0 == valarray<char>("abAdeBghCjkDmnEp", 16)
    -
    - -

    -The third member operator selects those elements of the controlled sequence -designated by gslicearr. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -valarray<char> v1("ABCDEF", 6);
    -const size_t lv[] = {2, 3};
    -const size_t dv[] = {7, 2};
    -const valarray<size_t> len(lv, 2), str(dv, 2);
    -v0[gslice(3, len, str)] = v1;
    -// v0 == valarray<char>("abcAeBgCijDlEnFp", 16)
    -
    - -

    -The fourth member operator selects those elements of the controlled sequence -designated by boolarr. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -valarray<char> v1("ABC", 3);
    -const bool vb[] = {false, false, true, true, false, true};
    -v0[valarray<bool>(vb, 6)] = v1;
    -// v0 == valarray<char>("abABeCghijklmnop", 16)
    -
    - -

    -The fifth member operator selects those elements of the controlled sequence -designated by indarr. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -valarray<char> v1("ABCDE", 5);
    -const size_t vi[] = {7, 5, 2, 3, 8};
    -v0[valarray<size_t>(vi, 5)] = v1;
    -// v0 == valarray<char>("abCDeBgAEjklmnop", 16)
    -
    - -

    -The second group of five member operators each construct an object that -represents the value(s) selected. The selected elements must exist. -

    - -

    -The sixth member operator returns the value of element off. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -// v0[3] returns 'd'
    -
    - -

    -The seventh member operator returns an object of class valarray<Ty> -containing those elements of the controlled sequence designated by slicearr. -For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -// v0[slice(2, 5, 3)] returns valarray<char>("cfilo", 5)
    -
    - -

    -The eighth member operator selects those elements of the controlled sequence -designated by gslicearr. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -const size_t lv[] = {2, 3};
    -const size_t dv[] = {7, 2};
    -const valarray<size_t> len(lv, 2), str(dv, 2);
    -// v0[gslice(3, len, str)] returns
    -//    valarray<char>("dfhkmo", 6)
    -
    - -

    -The ninth member operator selects those elements of the controlled sequence -designated by boolarr. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -const bool vb[] = {false, false, true, true, false, true};
    -// v0[valarray<bool>(vb, 6)] returns
    -//    valarray<char>("cdf", 3)
    -
    - -

    -The last member operator selects those elements of the controlled sequence -designated by indarr. For example: -

    - -
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16);
    -const size_t vi[] = {7, 5, 2, 3, 8};
    -// v0[valarray<size_t>(vi, 5)] returns
    -//    valarray<char>("hfcdi", 5)

    [lib.exception] specifies the following:

    -
        exception (const exception&) throw();
    -    exception& operator= (const exception&) throw();

    -        are implementation-defined.
    -
    - -

    -First, does the Note only apply to the assignment operator? If so, -what are the effects of calling what() on a copy of an object? Is -the returned pointer supposed to point to an identical copy of -the NTBS returned by what() called on the original object or not? -

    - -

    -Second, is this Note intended to extend to all the derived classes -in section 19? I.e., does the standard provide any guarantee for -the effects of what() called on a copy of any of the derived class -described in section 19? -

    - -

    -Finally, if the answer to the first question is no, I believe it -constitutes a defect since throwing an exception object typically -implies invoking the copy ctor on the object. If the answer is yes, -then I believe the standard ought to be clarified to spell out -exactly what the effects are on the copy (i.e., after the copy -ctor was called). -

    Discussion:

    -

    -Most ctype member functions come in two forms: one that operates -on a single character at a time and another form that operates -on a range of characters. Both forms are typically described by -a single Effects and/or Returns clause. -

    -

    -The Returns clause of each of the single-character non-virtual forms -suggests that the function calls the corresponding single character -virtual function, and that the array form calls the corresponding -virtual array form. Neither of the two forms of each virtual member -function is required to be implemented in terms of the other. -

    -

    -There are three problems: -

    -

    -1. One is that while the standard does suggest that each non-virtual -member function calls the corresponding form of the virtual function, -it doesn't actually explicitly require it. -

    -

    -Implementations that cache results from some of the virtual member -functions for some or all values of their arguments might want to -call the array form from the non-array form the first time to fill -the cache and avoid any or most subsequent virtual calls. Programs -that rely on each form of the virtual function being called from -the corresponding non-virtual function will see unexpected behavior -when using such implementations. -

    -2. The second problem is that either form of each of the virtual -functions can be overridden by a user-defined function in a derived -class to return a value that is different from the one produced by -the virtual function of the alternate form that has not been -overriden. -

    -

    -Thus, it might be possible for, say, ctype::widen(c) to return one -value, while for ctype::widen(&c, &c + 1, &wc) to set -wc to another value. This is almost certainly not intended. Both -forms of every function should be required to return the same result -for the same character, otherwise the same program using an -implementation that calls one form of the functions will behave -differently than when using another implementation that calls the -other form of the function "under the hood." -

    -

    -3. The last problem is that the standard text fails to specify whether -one form of any of the virtual functions is permitted to be implemented -in terms of the other form or not, and if so, whether it is required -or permitted to call the overridden virtual function or not. -

    -

    -Thus, a program that overrides one of the virtual functions so that -it calls the other form which then calls the base member might end -up in an infinite loop if the called form of the base implementation -of the function in turn calls the other form. -

    -

    -Lillehammer: Part of this isn't a real problem. We already talk about -caching. 22.1.1/6 But part is a real problem. ctype virtuals may call -each other, so users don't know which ones to override to avoid avoid -infinite loops.

    - -

    This is a problem for all facet virtuals, not just ctype virtuals, -so we probably want a blanket statement in clause 22 for all -facets. The LWG is leaning toward a blanket prohibition, that a -facet's virtuals may never call each other. We might want to do that -in clause 27 too, for that matter. A review is necessary. Bill will -provide wording.

    -

    -The note on 24.1.2 Output iterators insufficiently limits what can be -performed on output iterators. While it requires that each iterator is -progressed through only once and that each iterator is written to only -once, it does not require the following things:

    - -

    Note: Here it is assumed that x is an output iterator of type X which -has not yet been assigned to.

    - -

    a) That each value of the output iterator is written to: -The standard allows: -++x; ++x; ++x; -

    - -

    -b) That assignments to the output iterator are made in order -X a(x); ++a; *a=1; *x=2; is allowed -

    - -

    -c) Chains of output iterators cannot be constructed: -X a(x); ++a; X b(a); ++b; X c(b); ++c; is allowed, and under the current -wording (I believe) x,a,b,c could be written to in any order. -

    - -

    539. partial_sum and adjacent_difference should mention requirements

    -

    Discussion:

    -

    -There are some problems in the definition of partial_sum and -adjacent_difference in 26.4 [lib.numeric.ops] -

    - -

    -Unlike accumulate and inner_product, these functions are not -parametrized on a "type T", instead, 26.4.3 [lib.partial.sum] simply -specifies the effects clause as; -

    - -

    -Assigns to every element referred to by iterator i in the range -[result,result + (last - first)) a value correspondingly equal to -

    -
    ((...(* first + *( first + 1)) + ...) + *( first + ( i - result )))
    -
    -
    - -

    -And similarly for BinaryOperation. Using just this definition, it seems -logical to expect that: -

    - - -
    char i_array[4] = { 100, 100, 100, 100 };
    -int  o_array[4];
    -
    -std::partial_sum(i_array, i_array+4, o_array);
    -
    - -

    -Is equivalent to -

    - -
    int o_array[4] = { 100, 100+100, 100+100+100, 100+100+100+100 };
    -
    - -

    -i.e. 100, 200, 300, 400, with addition happening in the result type, -int. -

    - -

    -Yet all implementations I have tested produce 100, -56, 44, -112, -because they are using an accumulator of the InputIterator's -value_type, which in this case is char, not int. -

    - -

    -The issue becomes more noticeable when the result of the expression *i + -*(i+1) or binary_op(*i, *i-1) can't be converted to the -value_type. In a contrived example: -

    - -
    enum not_int { x = 1, y = 2 };
    -...
    -not_int e_array[4] = { x, x, y, y };
    -std::partial_sum(e_array, e_array+4, o_array);
    -
    - -

    -Is it the intent that the operations happen in the input type, or in -the result type? -

    - -

    -If the intent is that operations happen in the result type, something -like this should be added to the "Requires" clause of 26.4.3/4 -[lib.partial.sum]: -

    - -

    -The type of *i + *(i+1) or binary_op(*i, *(i+1)) shall meet the -requirements of CopyConstructible (20.1.3) and Assignable -(23.1) types. -

    - -

    -(As also required for T in 26.4.1 [lib.accumulate] and 26.4.2 -[lib.inner.product].) -

    - -

    -The "auto initializer" feature proposed in -N1894 -is not required to -implement partial_sum this way. The 'narrowing' behaviour can still be -obtained by using the std::plus<> function object. -

    - -

    -If the intent is that operations happen in the input type, then -something like this should be added instead; -

    - -

    -The type of *first shall meet the requirements of -CopyConstructible (20.1.3) and Assignable (23.1) types. -The result of *i + *(i+1) or binary_op(*i, *(i+1)) shall be -convertible to this type. -

    - -

    -The 'widening' behaviour can then be obtained by writing a custom proxy -iterator, which is somewhat involved. -

    - -

    -In both cases, the semantics should probably be clarified. -

    - -

    -26.4.4 [lib.adjacent.difference] is similarly underspecified, although -all implementations seem to perform operations in the 'result' type: -

    - -
    unsigned char i_array[4] = { 4, 3, 2, 1 };
    -int o_array[4];
    -
    -std::adjacent_difference(i_array, i_array+4, o_array);
    -
    - -

    -o_array is 4, -1, -1, -1 as expected, not 4, 255, 255, 255. -

    - -

    -In any case, adjacent_difference doesn't mention the requirements on the -value_type; it can be brought in line with the rest of 26.4 -[lib.numeric.ops] by adding the following to 26.4.4/2 -[lib.adjacent.difference]: -

    - -

    -The type of *first shall meet the requirements of -CopyConstructible (20.1.3) and Assignable (23.1) types." -

    -

    -In 25, p8 we allow BinaryPredicates to return a type that's convertible -to bool but need not actually be bool. That allows predicates to return -things like proxies and requires that implementations be careful about -what kinds of expressions they use the result of the predicate in (e.g., -the expression in if (!pred(a, b)) need not be well-formed since the -negation operator may be inaccessible or return a type that's not -convertible to bool). -

    Discussion:

    -

    -It seems undesirable to define the Swappable requirement in terms of -CopyConstructible and Assignable requirements. And likewise, once the -MoveConstructible and MoveAssignable requirements (N1860) have made it -into the Working Draft, it seems undesirable to define the Swappable -requirement in terms of those requirements. Instead, it appears -preferable to have the Swappable requirement defined exclusively in -terms of the existence of an appropriate swap function. -

    -

    -Section 20.1.4 [lib.swappable] of the current Working Draft (N2009) -says: -

    -

    -The Swappable requirement is met by satisfying one or more of the -following conditions:

    -
      -
    • -T is Swappable if T satisfies the CopyConstructible requirements -(20.1.3) and the Assignable requirements (23.1); -
    • -
    • -T is Swappable if a namespace scope function named swap exists in the -same namespace as the definition of T, such that the expression -swap(t,u) is valid and has the semantics described in Table 33. -
    • -
    -
    -

    -I can think of three disadvantages of this definition: -

    -
      -
    1. -

      -If a client's type T satisfies the first condition (T is both -CopyConstructible and Assignable), the client cannot stop T from -satisfying the Swappable requirement without stopping T from -satisfying the first condition. -

      -

      -A client might want to stop T from satisfying the Swappable -requirement, because swapping by means of copy construction and -assignment might throw an exception, and she might find a throwing -swap unacceptable for her type. On the other hand, she might not feel -the need to fully implement her own swap function for this type. In -this case she would want to be able to simply prevent algorithms that -would swap objects of type T from being used, e.g., by declaring a -swap function for T, and leaving this function purposely undefined. -This would trigger a link error, if an attempt would be made to use -such an algorithm for this type. For most standard library -implementations, this practice would indeed have the effect of -stopping T from satisfying the Swappable requirement. -

      -
    2. -
    3. -

      -A client's type T that does not satisfy the first condition can not be -made Swappable by providing a specialization of std::swap for T. -

      -

      -While I'm aware about the fact that people have mixed feelings about -providing a specialization of std::swap, it is well-defined to do so. -It sounds rather counter-intuitive to say that T is not Swappable, if -it has a valid and semantically correct specialization of std::swap. -Also in practice, providing such a specialization will have the same -effect as satisfying the Swappable requirement. -

      -
    4. -
    5. -

      -For a client's type T that satisfies both conditions of the Swappable -requirement, it is not specified which of the two conditions prevails. -After reading section 20.1.4 [lib.swappable], one might wonder whether -objects of T will be swapped by doing copy construction and -assignments, or by calling the swap function of T. -

      -

      -I'm aware that the intention of the Draft is to prefer calling the -swap function of T over doing copy construction and assignments. Still -in my opinion, it would be better to make this clear in the wording of -the definition of Swappable. -

      -
    6. -
    -

    -I would like to have the Swappable requirement defined in such a way -that the following code fragment will correctly swap two objects of a -type T, if and only if T is Swappable: -

    -
       using std::swap;
    -   swap(t, u);  // t and u are of type T.
    -
    -

    -This is also the way Scott Meyers recommends calling a swap function, -in Effective C++, Third Edition, item 25. -

    -

    -Most aspects of this issue have been dealt with in a discussion on -comp.std.c++ about the Swappable requirement, from 13 September to 4 -October 2006, including valuable input by David Abrahams, Pete Becker, -Greg Herlihy, Howard Hinnant and others. -

    Discussion:

    -

    - -Many member functions of basic_string are overloaded, -with some of the overloads taking a string argument, -others value_type*, others size_type, and -others still iterators. Often, the requirements on one of -the overloads are expressed in the form of Effects, -Throws, and in the Working Paper -(N2134) -also Remark clauses, while those on the rest of the overloads -via a reference to this overload and using a Returns clause. -

    - -

    -The difference between the two forms of specification is that per -17.5.1.4 [structure.specifications], p3, an Effects clause specifies -"actions performed by the functions," i.e., its observable -effects, while a Returns clause is "a description of the -return value(s) of a function" that does not impose any -requirements on the function's observable effects. -

    - -

    -Since only Notes are explicitly defined to be informative and -all other paragraphs are explicitly defined to be normative, like -Effects and Returns, the new Remark clauses also -impose normative requirements. -

    - -

    -So by this strict reading of the standard there are some member -functions of basic_string that are required to throw an -exception under some conditions or use specific traits members while -many other otherwise equivalent overloads, while obliged to return the -same values, aren't required to follow the exact same requirements -with regards to the observable effects. -

    - -

    -Here's an example of this problem that was precipitated by the change -from informative Notes to normative Remarks (presumably made to -address 424): -

    - -

    -In the Working Paper, find(string, size_type) contains a -Remark clause (which is just a Note in the current -standard) requiring it to use traits::eq(). -

    - -

    -find(const charT *s, size_type pos) is specified to -return find(string(s), pos) by a Returns clause -and so it is not required to use traits::eq(). However, -the Working Paper has replaced the original informative Note -about the function using traits::length() with a -normative requirement in the form of a Remark. Calling -traits::length() may be suboptimal, for example when the -argument is a very long array whose initial substring doesn't appear -anywhere in *this. -

    - -

    -Here's another similar example, one that existed even prior to the -introduction of Remarks: -

    - -

    - insert(size_type pos, string, size_type, size_type) is -required to throw out_of_range if pos > -size(). -

    - -

    -insert(size_type pos, string str) is specified to return -insert(pos, str, 0, npos) by a Returns clause and -so its effects when pos > size() are strictly speaking -unspecified. -

    - -

    -I believe a careful review of the current Effects and -Returns clauses is needed in order to identify all such -problematic cases. In addition, a review of the Working Paper should -be done to make sure that the newly introduced normative Remark -clauses do not impose any undesirable normative requirements in place -of the original informative Notes. - - -

    631. conflicting requirements for BinaryPredicate

    Discussion:

    -

    -The general requirements for BinaryPredicate (in 25 [algorithms]/8) contradict the implied specific requirements for -some functions. In particular, it says that: -

    - -

    -[...] if an algorithm takes BinaryPredicate binary_pred -as its argument and first1 and first2 as its -iterator arguments, it should work correctly in the construct if -(binary_pred (*first1 , *first2 )){...}. -BinaryPredicate always takes the first iterator type as its -first argument, that is, in those cases when T value is -part of the signature, it should work correctly in the context of if -(binary_pred (*first1 , value)){...}. -

    - -

    -In the description of upper_bound (25.4.3.2 [upper.bound]/2), however, the use is described as -"!comp(value, e)", where e is an -element of the sequence (a result of dereferencing -*first). -

    - -

    -In the description of lexicographical_compare, we have both -"*first1 < *first2" and "*first2 -< *first1" (which presumably implies "comp( -*first1, *first2 )" and "comp( *first2, -*first1 )". -

    - -

    -Move to Review. The small problem with the "iterator type" -will be fixed. The cited functions (lower_bound, uppwer_bound, -equal_range) don't actually use BinaryPredicate , and where it is used, -it is consistent with [algorithm]/8, so the main complaint of the issue -is moot. -
    - - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -

    -Logically, the BinaryPredicate is used as an ordering -relationship, with the semantics of "less than". Depending on the -function, it may be used to determine equality, or any of the inequality -relationships; doing this requires being able to use it with either -parameter first. I would thus suggest that the requirement be: -

    - -

    -[...] BinaryPredicate always takes the first iterator -value_type as one of its arguments, it is unspecified which. If -an algorithm takes BinaryPredicate binary_pred as its -argument and first1 and first2 as its -iterator arguments, it should work correctly both in the construct -if (binary_pred (*first1 , *first2 )){...} and -if (binary_pred (*first2, *first1)){...}. In -those cases when T value is part of the signature, it -should work correctly in the context of if (binary_pred -(*first1 , value)){...} and of if (binary_pred -(value, *first1)){...}. [Note: if the two -types are not identical, and neither is convertable to the other, this -may require that the BinaryPredicate be a functional object -with two overloaded operator()() functions. --end note] -

    - -

    -Alternatively, one could specify an order for each function. IMHO, this -would be more work for the committee, more work for the implementors, -and of no real advantage for the user: some functions, such as -lexicographical_compare or equal_range, will still require both -functions, and it seems like a much easier rule to teach that both -functions are always required, rather than to have a complicated list of -when you only need one, and which one. -

    671. precision of hexfloat

    Discussion:

    -

    -I am trying to understand how TR1 supports hex float (%a) output. -

    -

    -As far as I can tell, it does so via the following: -

    -

    -8.15 Additions to header <locale> [tr.c99.locale] -

    -

    -In subclause 22.4.2.2.2 [facet.num.put.virtuals], Table 58 Floating-point conversions, after -the line: -floatfield == ios_base::scientific %E -

    -

    -add the two lines: -

    -
    floatfield == ios_base::fixed | ios_base::scientific && !uppercase %a
    -floatfield == ios_base::fixed | ios_base::scientific %A 2
    -
    -

    -[Note: The additional requirements on print and scan functions, later -in this clause, ensure that the print functions generate hexadecimal -floating-point fields with a %a or %A conversion specifier, and that -the scan functions match hexadecimal floating-point fields with a %g -conversion specifier. end note] -

    -

    -Following the thread, in 22.4.2.2.2 [facet.num.put.virtuals], we find: -

    -

    -For conversion from a floating-point type, if (flags & fixed) != 0 or -if str.precision() > 0, then str.precision() is specified in the -conversion specification. -

    -

    -This would seem to imply that when floatfield == fixed|scientific, the -precision of the conversion specifier is to be taken from -str.precision(). Is this really what's intended? I sincerely hope -that I'm either missing something or this is an oversight. Please -tell me that the committee did not intend to mandate that hex floats -(and doubles) should by default be printed as if by %.6a. -

    - -

    [ -Howard: I think the fundamental issue we overlooked was that with %f, -%e, %g, the default precision was always 6. With %a the default -precision is not 6, it is infinity. So for the first time, we need to -distinguish between the default value of precision, and the precision -value 6. -]

    -The current proposed resolution simply lists the requirements for each function. -These might better be hoisted into the requirements table for unordered associative containers. -Futhermore a mild reorganization of the container requirements could well be in order. -This defect report is purposefully ignoring these larger issues and just focusing -on getting the unordered containers "moved". -

    -

    -Please remind people who are reviewing issues to check that the text -modifications match the current draft. Issue 676, for example, adds two -overloads for unordered_map::insert taking a hint. One takes a -const_iterator and returns a const_iterator, and the other takes an -iterator and returns an iterator. This was correct at the time the issue -was written, but was changed in Toronto so there is only one hint -overload, taking a const_iterator and returning an iterator. -

    -

    -This issue is not ready. In addition to the relatively minor signature -problem I mentioned earlier, it puts requirements in the wrong places. -Instead of duplicating requirements throughout the template -specifications, it should put them in the front matter that talks about -requirements for unordered containers in general. This presentation -problem is editorial, but I'm not willing to do the extensive rewrite -that it requires. Please put it back into Open status. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -The move-related changes inadvertently overwrote the intent of 276. -Issue 276 removed the requirement of CopyAssignable from -most of the member functions of node-based containers. But the move-related changes -unnecessarily introduced the MoveAssignable requirement for those members which used to -require CopyAssignable. -

    - -

    -We also discussed (c++std-lib-18722) the possibility of dropping MoveAssignable -from some of the sequence requirements. Additionally the in-place construction -work may further reduce requirements. For purposes of an easy reference, here are the -minimum sequence requirements as I currently understand them. Those items in requirements -table in the working draft which do not appear below have been purposefully omitted for -brevity as they do not have any requirements of this nature. Some items which do not -have any requirements of this nature are included below just to confirm that they were -not omitted by mistake. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -Two overloads of regex_replace() are currently provided: -

    - -
    template <class OutputIterator, class BidirectionalIterator, 
    -    class traits, class charT> 
    -  OutputIterator 
    -  regex_replace(OutputIterator out, 
    -                BidirectionalIterator first, BidirectionalIterator last, 
    -                const basic_regex<charT, traits>& e, 
    -                const basic_string<charT>& fmt, 
    -                regex_constants::match_flag_type flags = 
    -                  regex_constants::match_default);
    - 
    -template <class traits, class charT> 
    -  basic_string<charT> 
    -  regex_replace(const basic_string<charT>& s, 
    -                const basic_regex<charT, traits>& e, 
    -                const basic_string<charT>& fmt, 
    -                regex_constants::match_flag_type flags = 
    -                  regex_constants::match_default);
    -
    - -
      -
    1. Overloads taking const charT * are provided for regex_match() and -regex_search(), but not regex_replace(). This is inconsistent.
    2. -
    3. -

      The absence of const charT * overloads prevents ordinary-looking code from compiling, such as:

      - -
      const string s("kitten");
      -const regex r("en");
      -cout << regex_replace(s, r, "y") << endl;
      -
      - -

      -The compiler error message will be something like "could not deduce -template argument for 'const std::basic_string<_Elem> &' from 'const -char[1]'". -

      - -

      -Users expect that anything taking a basic_string<charT> can also take a -const charT *. In their own code, when they write a function taking -std::string (or std::wstring), they can pass a const char * (or const -wchar_t *), thanks to basic_string's implicit constructor. Because the -regex algorithms are templated on charT, they can't rely on -basic_string's implicit constructor (as the compiler error message -indicates, template argument deduction fails first). -

      - -

      -If a user figures out what the compiler error message means, workarounds -are available - but they are all verbose. Explicit template arguments -could be given to regex_replace(), allowing basic_string's implicit -constructor to be invoked - but charT is the last template argument, not -the first, so this would be extremely verbose. Therefore, constructing -a basic_string from each C string is the simplest workaround. -

      -
    4. - -
    5. -There is an efficiency consideration: constructing basic_strings can -impose performance costs that could be avoided by a library -implementation taking C strings and dealing with them directly. -(Currently, for replacement sources, C strings can be converted into -iterator pairs at the cost of verbosity, but for format strings, there -is no way to avoid constructing a basic_string.) -
    6. -

    -We note that Boost already has these overloads. However, the proposed -wording is provided only for 28.11.4 [re.alg.replace]; wording is needed for the synopsis -as well. We also note that this has impact on match_results::format, -which may require further overloads. -

    -Overloads of regex_replace() taking basic_string should be additionally -templated on class ST, class SA and take const basic_string<charT, ST, -SA>&. Consistency with regex_match() and regex_search() would place -class ST, class SA as the first template arguments; compatibility with -existing code using TR1 and giving explicit template arguments to -regex_replace() would place class ST, class SA as the last template -arguments. -

    742. Enabling swap for proxy iterators

    Discussion:

    -

    -This issue was split from 672. 672 now just -deals with changing the requirements of T in the Swappable -requirement from CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable to -MoveConstructible and MoveAssignable. -

    - -

    -This issue seeks to widen the Swappable requirement to support proxy iterators. Here -is example code: -

    - -
    namespace Mine {
    -
    -template <class T>
    -struct proxy {...};
    -
    -template <class T>
    -struct proxied_iterator
    -{
    -   typedef T value_type;
    -   typedef proxy<T> reference;
    -   reference operator*() const;
    -   ...
    -};
    -
    -struct A
    -{
    -   // heavy type, has an optimized swap, maybe isn't even copyable or movable, just swappable
    -   void swap(A&);
    -   ...
    -};
    -
    -void swap(A&, A&);
    -void swap(proxy<A>, A&);
    -void swap(A&, proxy<A>);
    -void swap(proxy<A>, proxy<A>);
    -
    -}  // Mine
    -
    -...
    -
    -Mine::proxied_iterator<Mine::A> i(...)
    -Mine::A a;
    -swap(*i1, a);
    -
    - -

    -The key point to note in the above code is that in the call to swap, *i1 -and a are different types (currently types can only be Swappable with the -same type). A secondary point is that to support proxies, one must be able to pass rvalues -to swap. But note that I am not stating that the general purpose std::swap -should accept rvalues! Only that overloaded swaps, as in the example above, be allowed -to take rvalues. -

    - -

    -That is, no standard library code needs to change. We simply need to have a more flexible -definition of Swappable. -

    - -

    [ -Bellevue: -]

    - - -
    -

    -While we believe Concepts work will define a swappable concept, we -should still resolve this issue if possible to give guidance to the -Concepts work. -

    -

    -Would an ambiguous swap function in two namespaces found by ADL break -this wording? Suggest that the phrase "valid expression" means such a -pair of types would still not be swappable. -

    -

    -Motivation is proxy-iterators, but facility is considerably more -general. Are we happy going so far? -

    -

    -We think this wording is probably correct and probably an improvement on -what's there in the WP. On the other hand, what's already there in the -WP is awfully complicated. Why do we need the two bullet points? They're -too implementation-centric. They don't add anything to the semantics of -what swap() means, which is there in the post-condition. What's wrong -with saying that types are swappable if you can call swap() and it -satisfies the semantics of swapping? -

    Proposed resolution:

    -

    -Change 20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements]: -

    - -
    - -

    --1- The template definitions in the C++ Standard Library refer to various -named requirements whose details are set out in tables 31-38. In these -tables, T and V are is a types to be supplied by a C++ program -instantiating a template; a, b, and c are -values of type const T; s and t are modifiable -lvalues of type T; u is a value of type (possibly -const) T; and rv is a non-const -rvalue of type T; w is a value of type T; and v is a value of type V. -

    expressionReturn typePost-condition
    swap(sw,tv)voidtw has the value originally -held by uv, and -uv has the value originally held -by tw
    -

    -The Swappable requirement is met by satisfying one or more of the following conditions: -

    -
      -
    • -T is Swappable if T and V are -the same type and T satisfies the -MoveConstructible requirements (Table -33) and the -MoveAssignable requirements (Table -35); -
    • -
    • -T is Swappable with V if a namespace scope function named -swap exists in the same namespace as the definition of -T or V, such that the expression -swap(sw,t v) is valid and has the -semantics described in this table. -
    • -
    • -T is Swappable if T is an array type whose -element type is Swappable. -

    774. Member swap undefined for most containers

    -

    Discussion:

    -

    -It appears most containers declare but do not define a member-swap -function. -

    - -

    -This is unfortunate, as all overload the swap algorithm to call the -member-swap function! -(required for swappable guarantees [Table 37] and Container Requirements -[Table 87]) -

    - -

    -Note in particular that Table 87 gives semantics of a.swap(b) as swap(a,b), -yet for all containers we define swap(a,b) to call a.swap(b) - a circular -definition. -

    - -

    -A quick survey of clause 23 shows that the following containers provide a -definition for member-swap: -

    - -
    array
    -queue
    -stack
    -vector
    -
    - -

    -Whereas the following declare it, but do not define the semantics: -

    - -
    deque
    -list
    -map
    -multimap
    -multiset
    -priority_queue
    -set
    -unordered_map
    -unordered_multi_map
    -unordered_multi_set
    -unordered_set
    -
    - -

    -Suggested resolution: -

    -
    -Provide a definition for each of the affected containers... -

    1. -It assumes that the proposed resolution for 883 is applied, -which breaks the circularity of definition between member -swap and free swap. -

    [ -2009-10-30 Pablo and Daniel updated wording. -]

    - - - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    - -

    [ -This resolution is based on the September 2009 WP, -N2960, -except that it -assumes that -N2982 -and issues 883 and 1232 have already been applied. Note in -particular that Table 91 in -N2960 -is refered to as Table 90 because -N2982 -removed the old Table 90. This resolution also addresses issue 431. -]

    - -

    -In 23.2.1 [container.requirements.general], replace the a.swap(b) row in table 90, -"container requirements" (was table 91 before the application of N2982 to the -WP): -

    -
    - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

    swap(a,b)void   a.swap(b)(Note A)
    -
    -

    -Modify the notes immediately following Table 90 in -23.2.1 [container.requirements.general] as follows (The wording below is after the -application of N2982 to N2960. The editor might also want to combine Notes -A and B into one.): -

    -

    -Notes: the algorithms swap(), equal() and lexicographical_compare() -are defined in Clause 25. Those entries marked "(Note A)" or "(Note B)" -should have linear complexity for array and constant -complexity for all other standard containers. -

    -

    -In 23.2.1 [container.requirements.general], after paragraph 9, add: -

    -

    -The expression a.swap(b), for containers a -and b of a standard container type other than array, -exchanges the values of a and b without invoking any -move, copy, or swap operations on the individual container elements. -Any Compare, Pred, or Hash function -objects belonging to a and b shall satisfy -the Swappable requirements and are exchanged by unqualified calls -to non-member swap. If -allocator_traits<allocator_type>::propagate_on_container_swap::value -== true, then the allocators of a and b are -also exchanged using an unqualified call to non-member swap. -Otherwise, the behavior is undefined unless a.get_allocator() == -b.get_allocator(). Each iterator refering to an element in one -container before the swap shall refer to the same element in the other -container after the swap. It is unspecified whether an iterator with -value a.end() before the swap will have -value b.end() after the swap. In addition to being available via -inclusion of the <utility> header, the swap -function template in 25.3.3 [alg.swap] is also available within the definition of -every standard container's swap function. -

    -
    -

    -23.2.4.1 Exception safety guarantees 23.2.4.1 [associative.reqmts.except] -

    -For associative containers, no clear() function throws an -exception. erase(k) does not throw an exception unless that -exception is thrown by the -container's PredCompare object (if any). -

    -

    -For associative containers, no swap function throws an exception -unless that exception is thrown by the copy constructor -or copy assignment operatorswap of the -container's PredCompare object (if any). -

    Section: 25.4.4 [alg.merge] Status: Review - Submitter: Daniel Krügler Opened: 2008-01-25 Last modified: 2009-10-22

    Discussion:

    -

    -Though issue 283 has fixed many open issues, it seems that some are still open: -

    - -

    -Both 25.3.4 [lib.alg.merge] in 14882:2003 and 25.4.4 [alg.merge] in N2461 -have no Requires element and the Effects element contains some requirements, -which is probably editorial. Worse is that: -

    - -
      -
    • -no assignment requirements are specified (neither implicit nor explicit). -
    • - -
    • -the effects clause just speaks of "merges", which is badly worded -near to a circular definition. -
    • - -
    • -p. 2 mentions a range [first, last), which is not defined by the -function arguments or otherwise. -
    • - -
    • -p. 2 says "according to the ordering defined by comp" which is both -incomplete (because -this excludes the first variant with <) and redundant (because the -following subordinate -clause mentions comp again) -
    • -
    - -

    [ -Post Summit Alisdair adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -Suggest: -

    -

    801. tuple and pair trivial members

    Discussion:

    -

    -Classes with trivial special member functions are inherently more -efficient than classes without such functions. This efficiency is -particularly pronounced on modern ABIs that can pass small classes -in registers. Examples include value classes such as complex numbers -and floating-point intervals. Perhaps more important, though, are -classes that are simple collections, like pair and tuple. When the -parameter types of these classes are trivial, the pairs and tuples -themselves can be trivial, leading to substantial performance wins. -

    -

    -The current working draft make specification of trivial functions -(where possible) much easer through defaulted and deleted functions. -As long as the semantics of defaulted and deleted functions match -the intended semantics, specification of defaulted and deleted -functions will yield more efficient programs. -

    -

    -There are at least two cases where specification of an explicitly -defaulted function may be desirable. -

    -

    -First, the std::pair template has a non-trivial default constructor, -which prevents static initialization of the pair even when the -types are statically initializable. Changing the definition to -

    - -
    pair() = default;
    -
    - -

    -would enable such initialization. Unfortunately, the change is -not semantically neutral in that the current definition effectively -forces value initialization whereas the change would not value -initialize in some contexts. -

    - -

    -** Does the committee confirm that forced value initialization -was the intent? If not, does the committee wish to change the -behavior of std::pair in C++0x? -

    -

    -Second, the same default constructor issue applies to std::tuple. -Furthermore, the tuple copy constructor is current non-trivial, -which effectively prevents passing it in registers. To enable -passing tuples in registers, the copy constructor should be -make explicitly defaulted. The new declarations are: -

    - -
    tuple() = default;
    -tuple(const tuple&) = default;
    -
    - -

    -This changes is not implementation neutral. In particular, it -prevents implementations based on pointers to the parameter -types. It does however, permit implementations using the -parameter types as bases. -

    -

    -** How does the committee wish to trade implementation -efficiency versus implementation flexibility? -

    -General agreement; the first half of the issue is NAD. -

    -Concensus: Go forward, but not at expense of other desired qualities. -

    - - -
    -

    -Basically, this issue is what should we do with the default constructor -for pairs and tuples of trivial types. The motivation of the issue was -to force static initialization rather than dynamic initialization, and -was rejected in the case of pair as it would change the meaning of -existing programs. The advice was "do the best we can" for tuple -without changing existing meaning. -

    - -

    -Frankfurt seems to simply wait and see the resolution on no-throw move -constructors, which (I believe) is only tangentially related to this -issue, but as good as any to defer until Santa Cruz. -

    - -

    -Looking again now, I think constant (static) initialization for pair can -be salvaged by making the default construct constexpr.

    - - -
    -

    -Sebastian Gesemann brought to my attention that the CopyConstructible -requirement on function's ArgTypes... is an unnecessary -restriction. -

    - -
    template<Returnable R, CopyConstructible... ArgTypes>
    -class function<R(ArgTypes...)>
    -...
    -
    - -

    -On further investigation, this complaint seemed to be the same -issue as this one. I believe the reason CopyConstructible was put -on ArgTypes in the first place was because of the nature of the -invoke member: -

    - -
    template<class R, class ...ArgTypes>
    -R
    -function<R(ArgTypes...)>::operator()(ArgTypes... arg) const
    -{
    -    if (f_ == 0)
    -        throw bad_function_call();
    -    return (*f_)(arg...);
    -}
    -
    - -

    -However now with rvalue-refs, "by value" no longer implies CopyConstructible -(as Sebastian correctly points out). If rvalue arguments are supplied, MoveConstructible -is sufficient. Furthermore, the constraint need not be applied in function -if I understand correctly. Rather the client must apply the proper constraints -at the call site. Therefore, at the very least, I recommend that CopyConstructible -be removed from the template class function. -

    - -

    -Furthermore we need to mandate that the invoker is coded as: -

    - -
    template<class R, class ...ArgTypes>
    -R
    -function<R(ArgTypes...)>::operator()(ArgTypes... arg) const
    -{
    -    if (f_ == 0)
    -        throw bad_function_call();
    -    return (*f_)(std::forward<ArgTypes>(arg)...);
    -}
    -
    - -

    -Note that ArgTypes&& (the "perfect forwarding signature") is not -appropriate here as this is not a deduced context for ArgTypes. Instead -the client's arguments must implicitly convert to the non-deduced ArgType -type. Catching these arguments by value makes sense to enable decay. -

    - -

    -Next forward is used to move the ArgTypes as efficiently as -possible, and also with minimum requirements (not CopyConstructible) -to the type-erased functor. For object types, this will be a move. For -reference type ArgTypes, this will be a copy. The end result must be -that the following is a valid program: -

    - -
    #include <functional>
    -#include <memory>
    -#include <cassert>

    -

    -Issue 673 (including recent updates by 821) proposes a useful -extension point for unique_ptr by granting support for an optional -deleter_type::pointer to act as pointer-like replacement for element_type* -(In the following: pointer). -

    -

    -Unfortunately no requirements are specified for the type pointer which has -impact on at least two key features of unique_ptr: -

    - -
      -
    1. Operational fail-safety.
    2. -
    3. (Well-)Definedness of expressions.
    4. -
    - -

    -Unique_ptr specification makes great efforts to require that essentially *all* -operations cannot throw and therefore adds proper wording to the affected -operations of the deleter as well. If user-provided pointer-emulating types -("smart pointers") will be allowed, either *all* throw-nothing clauses have to -be replaced by weaker "An exception is thrown only if pointer's {op} throws -an exception"-clauses or it has to be said explicitly that all used -operations of -pointer are required *not* to throw. I understand the main focus of unique_ptr -to be as near as possible to the advantages of native pointers which cannot -fail and thus strongly favor the second choice. Also, the alternative position -would make it much harder to write safe and simple template code for -unique_ptr. Additionally, I assume that a general statement need to be given -that all of the expressions of pointer used to define semantics are required to -be well-formed and well-defined (also as back-end for 762). -

    Discussion:

    -

    - -The fix for -issue 581, -now integrated into the working paper, overlooks a couple of minor -problems. - -

    -

    - -First, being an unformatted function once again, flush() -is required to create a sentry object whose constructor must, among -other things, flush the tied stream. When two streams are tied -together, either directly or through another intermediate stream -object, flushing one will also cause a call to flush() on -the other tied stream(s) and vice versa, ad infinitum. The program -below demonstrates the problem. - -

    -

    - -Second, as Bo Persson notes in his -comp.lang.c++.moderated post, -for streams with the unitbuf flag set such -as std::stderr, the destructor of the sentry object will -again call flush(). This seems to create an infinite -recursion for std::cerr << std::flush; - -

    -I think that the most recently suggested change in -27.7.2.4 [ostream::sentry] need some further word-smithing. As -written, it would make the behavior undefined, if under -conditions when pubsync() should be called, but when -in this scenario os.rdbuf() returns 0. -

    -

    -This case is explicitly handled in flush() and needs to be -taken care of. My suggested fix is: -

    - -
    -If ((os.flags() & ios_base::unitbuf) && !uncaught_exception() -&& os.rdbuf() != 0) is true, calls os.flush() -os.rdbuf()->pubsync(). -
    - -

    -Two secondary questions are: -

    - -
      -
    1. -Should pubsync() be invoked in any case or shouldn't a -base requirement for this trial be that os.good() == true -as required in the original flush() case? -
    2. -
    3. -Since uncaught_exception() is explicitly tested, shouldn't -a return value of -1 of pubsync() produce setstate(badbit) -(which may throw ios_base::failure)? -

    Discussion:

    -

    -In regard to library defect 488 I found some more algorithms which -unnecessarily throw away information. These are typically algorithms, -which sequentially write into an OutputIterator, but do not return the -final value of this output iterator. These cases are: -

    - -
      -
    1. -
      template<class OutputIterator, class Size, class T>
      -void fill_n(OutputIterator first, Size n, const T& value);
    2. - -
    3. -
      template<class OutputIterator, class Size, class Generator>
      -void generate_n(OutputIterator first, Size n, Generator gen);
    4. -
    -

    -In both cases the minimum requirements on the iterator are -OutputIterator, which means according to the requirements of -24.2.2 [output.iterators]/2 that only single-pass iterations are guaranteed. -So, if users of fill_n and generate_n have *only* an OutputIterator -available, they have no chance to continue pushing further values -into it, which seems to be a severe limitation to me. -

    -The term "default constructed" is often used in wording that predates -the introduction of the concept of value-initialization. In a few such -places the concept of value-initialization is more correct than the -current wording (for example when the type involved can be a built-in) -so a replacement is in order. Two of such places are already covered by -issue 867. This issue deliberately addresses the hopefully -non-controversial changes in the attempt of being approved more quickly. -A few other occurrences (for example in std::tuple, -std::reverse_iterator and std::move_iterator) are left to separate -issues.

    -The Posix/C++ working group has identified an inconsistency between -Posix and the C++ working draft in that Posix requires the clock to be -identified at creation, whereas C++ permits identifying the clock at the -call to wait. The latter cannot be implemented with the former. -

    - -

    [ -San Francisco: -]

    - - -
    -

    -Howard recommends NAD with the following explanation: -

    - -

    -The intent of the current wording is for the condtion_variable::wait_until -be able to handle user-defined clocks as well as clocks the system knows about. -This can be done by providing overloads for the known clocks, and another -overload for unknown clocks which synchs to a known clock before waiting. -For example: -

    - -
    template <class Duration>
    -bool
    -condition_variable::wait_until(unique_lock<mutex>& lock,
    -                               const chrono::time_point<chrono::system_clock, Duration>& abs_time)
    -{
    -    using namespace chrono;
    -    nanoseconds d = __round_up<nanoseconds>(abs_time.time_since_epoch());
    -    __do_timed_wait(lock.mutex()->native_handle(), time_point<system_clock, nanoseconds>(d));
    -    return system_clock::now() < abs_time;
    -}
    -
    -template <class Clock, class Duration>
    -bool
    -condition_variable::wait_until(unique_lock<mutex>& lock,
    -                               const chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& abs_time)
    -{
    -    using namespace chrono;
    -    system_clock::time_point    s_entry = system_clock::now();
    -    typename Clock::time_point  c_entry = Clock::now();
    -    nanoseconds dn = __round_up<nanoseconds>(abs_time.time_since_epoch() -
    -                                              c_entry.time_since_epoch());
    -    __do_timed_wait(lock.mutex()->native_handle(), s_entry + dn);
    -    return Clock::now() < abs_time;
    -}
    -
    - -

    -In the above example, system_clock is the only clock which the underlying -condition variable knows how to deal with. One overload just passes that clock -through. The second overload (approximately) converts the unknown clock into -a system_clock time_point prior to passing it down to the native -condition variable. -

    - -

    -On Posix systems vendors are free to add implementation defined constructors which -take a clock. That clock can be stored in the condition_variable, and converted -to (or not as necessary) as shown above. -

    - -

    -If an implementation defined constructor takes a clock (for example), then part -of the semantics for that implementation defined ctor might include that a -wait_until using a clock other than the one constructed with results -in an error (exceptional condition) instead of a conversion to the stored clock. -Such a design is up to the vendor as once an implementation defined ctor is used, -the vendor is free to specifiy the behavior of waits and/or notifies however -he pleases (when the cv is constructed in an implementation defined manner). -

    [ -2009-07-18 Detlef reopens the issue: -]

    - - -
    -

    -On Friday afternoon in Frankfurt is was decided that 887 is NAD. -This decision was mainly based on a sample implementation presented -by Howard that implemented one clock on top of another. -Unfortunately this implementation doesn't work for the probably most -important case where a system has a monotonic clock and a real-time -clock (or "wall time" clock): -

    -

    -If the underlying "system_clock" is a monotonic clock, and -the program waits on the real-time clock, and the real-time clock -is set forward, the wait will unblock too late. -

    - -

    -If the underlying "system_clock" is a real-time clock, and the -program waits on the monotonic clock, and the real-time clock -is set back, the wait again will unblock too late. -

    - -

    -Sorry that I didn't remember this on Friday, but it was Friday -afternoon after a busy week... -

    - -

    -So as the decision was made on a wrong asumption, I propose to re-open -the issue. -

    -
    - -

    [ -2009-07-26 Howard adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -Detlef correctly argues that condition_variable::wait_until could -return "too late" in the context of clocks being adjusted during the wait. I agree -with his logic. But I disagree that this makes this interface unimplementable -on POSIX. -

    - -

    -The POSIX spec also does not guarantee that pthread_cond_timedwait does -not return "too late" when clocks are readjusted during the wait. Indeed, the -POSIX specification lacks any requirements at all concerning how soon -pthread_cond_timedwait returns after a time out. This is evidently a -QOI issue by the POSIX standard. Here is a quote of the most relevant normative -text concerning pthread_cond_timedwait found -here. -

    - -
    -The pthread_cond_timedwait() function shall be equivalent to -pthread_cond_wait(), except that an error is returned if the absolute -time specified by abstime passes (that is, system time equals or exceeds -abstime) before the condition cond is signaled or broadcasted, or if the -absolute time specified by abstime has already been passed at the time -of the call. -
    - -

    -I.e. the POSIX specification speaks of the error code returned in case of a time -out, but not on the timeliness of that return. -

    - -

    -Might this simply be an oversight, or minor defect in the POSIX specification? -

    - -

    -I do not believe so. This same section goes on to say in non-normative -text: -

    - -
    -For cases when the system clock is advanced discontinuously by an -operator, it is expected that implementations process any timed wait -expiring at an intervening time as if that time had actually occurred. -
    - -

    -Here is non-normative wording encouraging the implementation to ignore an advancing -underlying clock and subsequently causing an early (spurious) return. There is -no wording at all which addresses Detlef's example of a "late return". With -pthread_cond_timedwait this would be caused by setting the system clock -backwards. It seems reasonable to assume, based on the wording that is already -in the POSIX spec, that again, the discontinuously changed clock would be ignored -by pthread_cond_timedwait. -

    - -

    -A noteworthy difference between pthread_cond_timedwait and -condition_variable::wait_until is that the POSIX spec appears to -say that ETIMEDOUT should be returned if pthread_cond_timedwait -returns because of timeout signal, whether or not the system clock was discontinuously -advanced during the wait. In contrast condition_variable::wait_until -always returns: -

    - -
    Clock::now() < abs_time
    -
    - -

    -That is, the C++ spec requires that the clock be rechecked (detecting discontinuous -adjustments during the wait) at the time of return. condition_variable::wait_until -may indeed return early or late. But regardless it will return a value -reflecting timeout status at the time of return (even if clocks have been adjusted). -Of course the clock may be adjusted after the return value is computed but before the client has -a chance to read the result of the return. Thus there are no iron-clad guarantees -here. -

    - -

    -condition_variable::wait_until (and pthread_cond_timedwait) -is little more than a convenience function for making sure -condition_variable::wait doesn't hang for an unreasonable amount of -time (where the client gets to define "unreasonable"). I do not think it -is in anyone's interest to try to make it into anything more than that. -

    - -

    -I maintain that this is a useful and flexible specification in the spirit of -C++, and is implementable on POSIX. The implementation technique described above -is a reasonable approach. There may also be higher quality approaches. This -specification, like the POSIX specification, gives a wide latitude for QOI. -

    - -

    -I continue to recommend NAD, but would not object to a clarifying note regarding -the behavior of condition_variable::wait_until. At the moment, I do -not have good wording for such a note, but welcome suggestions. -

    -30.4.1.1 [thread.mutex.class]/27 (in -N2723) -says that the behavior is undefined if: -

    -
      -
    • a thread that owns a mutex object calls lock() or -try_lock() on that object
    • -
    -

    -I don't believe that this is right. Calling lock() or try_lock() on a -locked mutex is well defined in the general case. try_lock() is required -to fail and return false. lock() is required to either throw an -exception (and is allowed to do so if it detects deadlock) or to block -until the mutex is free. These general requirements apply regardless of -the current owner of the mutex; they should apply even if it's owned by -the current thread. -

    -

    -Making double lock() undefined behavior probably can be justified (even -though I'd still disagree with the justification), but try_lock() on a -locked mutex must fail. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -It is unclear whether shared_ptr is thread-safe in the sense that -multiple threads may simultaneously copy a shared_ptr. However this -is a critical piece of information for the client, and it has significant -impact on usability for many applications. (Detlef Vollman thinks it -is currently clear that it is not thread-safe. Hans Boehm thinks -it currently requires thread safety, since the use_count is not an -explicit field, and constructors and assignment take a const reference -to an existing shared_ptr.) -

    - -

    -Pro thread-safety: -

    -

    -Many multi-threaded usages are impossible. A thread-safe version can -be used to destroy an object when the last thread drops it, something -that is often required, and for which we have no other easy mechanism. -

    -

    -Against thread-safety: -

    -

    -The thread-safe version is well-known to be far more expensive, even -if used by a single thread. Many applications, including all single-threaded -ones, do not care. -

    Addresses UK 150

    - -

    -The description of the effect of operator= in the MoveAssignable -concept, given in paragraph 7 is: -

    - -
    result_type  T::operator=(T&&  rv);  // inherited from HasAssign<T, T&&>
    -
    - -
    -Postconditions: the constructed T object is equivalent to the value of -rv before the assignment. [Note: there is no -requirement on the value of rv after the assignment. --end note] -
    -
    - -

    -The sentence contains a typo (what is the "constructed T object"?) -probably due to a cut&paste from MoveConstructible. Moreover, the -discussion of LWG issue 675 shows that the postcondition is too generic -and might not reflect the user expectations. An implementation of the -move assignment that just calls swap() would always fulfill the -postcondition as stated, but might have surprising side-effects in case -the source rvalue refers to an object that is not going to be -immediately destroyed. See LWG issue 900 for another example. Due to -the sometimes intangible nature of the "user expectation", it seems -difficult to have precise normative wording that could cover all cases -without introducing unnecessary restrictions. However a non-normative -clarification could be a very helpful warning sign that swapping is not -always the correct thing to do. -

    -Issue 910 is exactly the reason BSI advanced the Editorial comment UK-150. -

    -

    -The post-conditions after assignment are at a minimum that the object -referenced by rv must be safely destructible, and the transaction should not -leak resources. Ideally it should be possible to simply assign rv a new -valid state after the call without invoking undefined behaviour, but any -other use of the referenced object would depend upon additional guarantees -made by that type. -

    -
    - -

    [ -2009-05-09 Howard adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -The intent of the rvalue reference work is that the moved from rv is -a valid object. Not one in a singular state. If, for example, the moved from -object is a vector, one should be able to do anything on that moved-from -vector that you can do with any other vector. However you would -first have to query it to find out what its current state is. E.g. it might have capacity, -it might not. It might have a non-zero size, it might not. But regardless, -you can push_back on to it if you want. -

    - -

    -That being said, most standard code is now conceptized. That is, the concepts -list the only operations that can be done with templated types - whether or not -the values have been moved from. -

    - -

    -Here is user-written code which must be allowed to be legal: -

    -
    #include <vector>
    -#include <cstdio>
    -
    -template <class Allocator>
    -void
    -inspect(std::vector<double, Allocator>&& v)
    -{
    -    std::vector<double, Allocator> result(move(v));
    -    std::printf("moved from vector has %u size and %u capacity\n", v.size(), v.capacity());
    -    std::printf("The contents of the vector are:\n");
    -    typedef typename std::vector<double, Allocator>::iterator I;
    -    for (I i = v.begin(), e = v.end(); i != e; ++i)
    -        printf("%f\n", *i);

    -int main()
    -{
    -    std::vector<double> v1(100, 5.5);
    -    inspect(move(v1));
    -}
    -
    - -

    -The above program does not treat the moved-from vector as singular. It -only treats it as a vector with an unknown value. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -Class template basic_istream, basic_ostream and basic_iostream -implements public move constructors, move assignment operators and swap -method and free functions. This might induce both the user and the -compiler to think that those types are MoveConstructible, MoveAssignable -and Swappable. However, those class templates fail to fulfill the user -expectations. For example: -

    - -
    std::ostream os(std::ofstream("file.txt"));
    -assert(os.rdbuf() == 0); // buffer object is not moved to os, file.txt has been closed
    -
    -std::vector<std::ostream> v;
    -v.push_back(std::ofstream("file.txt"));
    -v.reserve(100); // causes reallocation
    -assert(v[0].rdbuf() == 0); // file.txt has been closed!
    -
    -std::ostream&& os1 = std::ofstream("file1.txt");
    -os1 = std::ofstream("file2.txt");
    -os1 << "hello, world"; // still writes to file1.txt, not to file2.txt!
    -
    -std::ostream&& os1 = std::ofstream("file1.txt");
    -std::ostream&& os2 = std::ofstream("file2.txt");
    -std::swap(os1, os2);
    -os1 << "hello, world"; // writes to file1.txt, not to file2.txt!
    -
    - -

    -This is because the move constructor, the move assignment operator and -swap are all implemented through calls to std::basic_ios member -functions move() and swap() that do not move nor swap the controlled -stream buffers. That can't happen because the stream buffers may have -different types. -

    - -

    -Notice that for basic_streambuf, the member function swap() is -protected. I believe that is correct and all of basic_istream, -basic_ostream, basic_iostream should do the same as the move ctor, move -assignment operator and swap member function are needed by the derived -fstreams and stringstreams template. The free swap functions for -basic_(i|o|io)stream templates should be removed for the same reason. -

    -I started out thinking I would recommend NAD for this one. I've turned around -to agree with the proposed resolution (which I've updated to the current draft). -I did not fully understand Ganesh's rationale, and attempt to describe my -improved understanding below. -

    - -

    -The move constructor, move assignment operator, and swap function are different -for basic_istream, basic_ostream and basic_iostream -than other classes. A timely conversation with Daniel reminded me of this long -forgotten fact. These members are sufficiently different that they would be -extremely confusing to use in general, but they are very much needed for derived -clients. -

    - -
      -
    • -The move constructor moves everything but the rdbuf pointer. -
    • -
    • -The move assignment operator moves everything but the rdbuf pointer. -
    • -
    • -The swap function swaps everything but the rdbuf pointer. -
    • -
    - -

    -The reason for this behavior is that for the std-derived classes (stringstreams, -filestreams), the rdbuf pointer points back into the class itself -(self referencing). It can't be swapped or moved. But this fact isn't born out -at the stream level. Rather it is born out at the fstream/sstream -level. And the lower levels just need to deal with that fact by not messing around -with the rdbuf pointer which is stored down at the lower levels. -

    - -

    -In a nutshell, it is very confusing for all of those who are not so intimately -related with streams that they've implemented them. And it is even fairly -confusing for some of those who have (including myself). I do not think it is -safe to swap or move istreams or ostreams because this will -(by necessary design) separate stream state from streambuffer state. Derived -classes (such as fstream and stringstream must be used to -keep the stream state and stream buffer consistently packaged as one unit during -a move or swap. -

    -It seems that the proposed changes for -N2772 -were not clear enough in -this point: -

    - -
    -25.4.7 [alg.min.max], before p.23 + p.24 + before p. 27 + p. 28 say that the return -type of the minmax overloads with an initializer_list is -pair<const T&, const T&>, -which is inconsistent with the decision for the other min/max overloads which take -a initializer_list as argument and return a T, not a const T&. -Doing otherwise for minmax would easily lead to unexpected life-time -problems by using minmax instead of min and max separately. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -The compile-time functions that operate on ratio<N,D> require the -cumbersome and error-prone "evaluation" of a type member using a -meta-programming style that predates the invention of template aliases. -Thus, multiplying three ratios a, b, and c requires the expression: -

    - -
    ratio_multiply<a, ratio_multiply<b, c>::type>::type
    -
    - -

    -The simpler expression: -

    Addresses UK 323

    - -

    -The thread constructor for starting a new thread with a function and -arguments is overly constrained by the signature requiring rvalue -references for func and args and the CopyConstructible requirements -for the elements of args. The use of an rvalue reference for the -function restricts the potential use of a plain function name, since -the type of the bound parameter will be deduced to be a function -reference and decay to pointer-to-function will not happen. This -therefore complicates the implementation in order to handle a simple -case. Furthermore, the use of rvalue references for args prevents the -array to pointer decay. Since arrays are not CopyConstructible or even -MoveConstructible, this essentially prevents the passing of arrays as -parameters. In particular it prevents the passing of string literals. -Consequently a simple case such as -

    - -
    void f(const char*);
    -std::thread t(f,"hello");
    -
    - -

    -is ill-formed since the type of the string literal is const char[6]. -

    - -

    -By changing the signature to take all parameters by value we can -eliminate the CopyConstructible requirement and permit the use of -arrays, as the parameter passing semantics will cause the necessary -array-to-pointer decay. They will also cause the function name to -decay to a pointer to function and allow the implementation to handle -functions and function objects identically. -

    - -

    -The new signature of the thread constructor for a function and -arguments is thus: -

    - -
    template<typename F,typename... Args>
    -thread(F,Args... args);
    -
    - -

    -Since the parameter pack Args can be empty, the single-parameter -constructor that takes just a function by value is now redundant. -

    - -

    [ -Howard adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -I agree with everything Anthony says in this issue. However I believe we -can optimize in such a way as to get the pass-by-value behavior with the -pass-by-rvalue-ref performance. The performance difference is that the latter -removes a move when passing in an lvalue. -

    - -

    -This circumstance is very analogous to make_pair (20.3.4 [pairs]) -where we started with passing by const reference, changed to pass by value to -get pointer decay, and then changed to pass by rvalue reference, but modified with -decay<T> to retain the pass-by-value behavior. If we were to -apply the same solution here it would look like: -

    - -
    template <class F> explicit thread(F f);
    -template <class F, class ...Args> thread(F&& f, Args&&... args);
    -
    -
    -

    --4- Requires: F and each Ti in Args shall be CopyConstructible -if an lvalue and otherwise MoveConstructible. -INVOKE(f, w1, w2, ..., wN) (20.7.2 [func.require]) shall be a valid expression for -some values w1, w2, ... , wN, where N == sizeof...(Args). -

    -

    --5- Effects: Constructs an object of type thread -and executes INVOKE(f, t1, t2, ..., tN) in a new -thread of execution, where t1, t2, ..., tN are the values in args.... -Constructs -the following objects in memory which is accessible to a new thread of execution -as if: -

    -
    typename decay<F>::type g(std::forward<F>(f));
    -tuple<typename decay<Args>::type...> w(std::forward<Args>(args)...);
    -
    -

    -The new thread of -execution executes INVOKE(g, wi...) where the wi... refers -to the elements stored in the tuple w. -Any return value from g is ignored. -If f terminates with an uncaught exception, std::terminate() shall be called. -If the evaluation of INVOKE(g, wi...) terminates -with an uncaught exception, std::terminate() shall be called [Note: -std::terminate() could be called before entering g. -- end note]. Any -exception thrown before the evaluation of INVOKE has started shall be -catchable in the calling thread. -

    - -
    template<class F> explicit thread(F f);

    -and executes INVOKE(g, wi...) in a new thread of execution. -These objects shall be destroyed when the new thread of execution completes. -Any return value from g is ignored. -If f terminates with an uncaught exception, std::terminate() shall be called. -If the evaluation of INVOKE(g, wi...) terminates -with an uncaught exception, std::terminate() shall be called [Note: -std::terminate() could be called before entering g. -- end note].

    [ -2009-07-27 Howard adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -The two constructors to which this issue applies are not easily constrained -with enable_if as they are not templated: -

    - -
    unique_ptr();
    -explicit unique_ptr(pointer p);
    -
    - -

    -To "SFINAE" these constructors away would take heroic effort such as specializing -the entire unique_ptr class template on pointer deleter types. There -is insufficient motivation for such heroics. Here is the expected and -reasonable implementation for these constructors: -

    - -
    unique_ptr()
    -    : ptr_(pointer())
    -    {
    -        static_assert(!is_pointer<deleter_type>::value,
    -            "unique_ptr constructed with null function pointer deleter");
    -    }
    -explicit unique_ptr(pointer p)
    -    : ptr_(p)

    -            "unique_ptr constructed with null function pointer deleter");
    -    }
    -
    - -

    -I.e. just use static_assert to verify that the constructor is not -instantiated with a function pointer for a deleter. The compiler will automatically -take care of issuing a diagnostic if the deleter is a reference type (uninitialized -reference error). -

    -std::identity takes an argument of type T const & -and returns a result of T const &. -

    -

    -Unfortunately, this signature will accept a value of type other than T that -is convertible-to-T, and then return a reference to the dead temporary. The -constraint in the concepts version simply protects against returning -reference-to-void. -

    -

    -Solutions: -

    -
    -

    -i/ Return-by-value, potentially slicing bases and rejecting non-copyable -types -

    -

    -ii/ Provide an additional overload: -

    -
    template< typename T >
    -template operator( U & ) = delete;
    -
    -

    -This seems closer on intent, but moves beyond the original motivation for -the operator, which is compatibility with existing (non-standard) -implementations. -

    -

    -iii/ Remove the operator() overload. This restores the original definition -of the identity, although now effectively a type_trait rather than part of -the perfect forwarding protocol. -

    -

    Discussion:

    - -

    Addresses UK 270

    - -

    -Regarding the std::distance - function, 24.4.4 [iterator.operations] -/ 4 says: -

    -
    -Returns the -number of increments or decrements needed to get from first to last. -
    -

    -This sentence is completely silent about the sign of the return value. -24.4.4 [iterator.operations] / 1 gives more information about the -underlying operations, but -again no inferences about the sign can be made. -Strictly speaking, that is taking that sentence literally, I think this -sentence even implies a positive return value in all cases, as the -number of increments or decrements is clearly a ratio scale variable, -with a natural zero bound. -

    -

    -Practically speaking, my implementations did what common sense and -knowledge based on pointer arithmetic forecasts, namely a positive sign -for increments (that is, going from first to last by operator++), and a -negative sign for decrements (going from first to last by operator--). -

    -

    -Here are my two questions: -

    -

    -First, is that paragraph supposed to be interpreted in the way what I -called 'common sense', that is negative sign for decrements ? I am -fairly sure that's the supposed behavior, but a double-check here in -this group can't hurt. -

    -

    -Second, is the present wording (2003 standard version - no idea about -the draft for the upcoming standard) worth an edit to make it a bit more -sensible, to mention the sign of the return value explicitly ? -

    [ -Daniel adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -My first thought was that resolution 204 would already cover the -issue report, but it seems that current normative wording is in -contradiction to that resolution: -

    - -

    -Referring to -N2798, -24.4.4 [iterator.operations]/ p.4 says: -

    - -
    -Effects: Returns the number of increments or decrements needed to get -from first to last. -
    - -

    -IMO the part " or decrements" is in contradiction to p. 5 which says -

    - -
    -Requires: last shall be reachable from first. -
    - -

    -because "reachable" is defined in X [iterator.concepts]/7 as -

    - -
    -An iterator j is called reachable from an iterator i if and only if -there is a finite -sequence of applications of the expression ++i that makes i == j.[..] -
    - -

    -Here is wording that would be consistent with this definition of "reachable": -

    -I have surveyed all clauses of 20.9.2.2 [time.traits.duration_values], -20.9.2.3 [time.traits.specializations] and 20.9.3 [time.duration]. -I can not find any clause which involves the use of a duration::rep type -where the requirements on the rep type are not clearly spelled out. -These requirements were carefully crafted to allow any arithmetic type, or -any user-defined type emulating an arithmetic type. -

    - -

    -Indeed, treat_as_floating_point -becomes completely superfluous if duration::rep can never be a class type. -

    - -

    -There will be some Rep types which will not meet the requirements of -every duration operation. This is no different than the fact -that vector<T> can easily be used for types T which are -not DefaultConstructible, even though some members of vector<T> -require T to be DefaultConstructible. This is why the requirements -on Rep are specified for each operation individually. -

    - -

    -In 20.9.2.1 [time.traits.is_fp] p1: -

    - -
    template <class Rep> struct treat_as_floating_point 
    -  : is_floating_point<Rep> { };
    -
    - -
    -The duration template uses the treat_as_floating_point trait to help -determine if a duration object can be converted to another duration -with a different tick period. If treat_as_floating_point<Rep>::value is -true, then Rep is a floating-point type and implicit conversions are -allowed among durations. Otherwise, the implicit convertibility depends -on the tick periods of the durations. If Rep is a class type which -emulates a floating-point type, the author of Rep can specialize -treat_as_floating_point so that duration will treat this Rep as if it -were a floating-point type. Otherwise Rep is assumed to be an integral -type or a class emulating an integral type. -
    -
    - -

    -The phrases "a class type which emulates a floating-point type" and -"a class emulating an integral type" are clarifying phrases which refer to -the summation of all the requirements on the Rep type specified in -detail elsewhere (and should not be repeated here). -

    - -

    -This specification has been implemented, now multiple times, and the experience -has been favorable. The current specification clearly specifies the requirements -at each point of use (though I'd be happy to fix any place I may have missed, -but none has been pointed out). -

    - -

    -I am amenable to improved wording of this paragraph (and any others), but do not have any -suggestions for improved wording at this time. I am strongly opposed to -changes which would significantly alter the semantics of the -specification under 20.9 [time] without firmly grounded and -documented rationale, example implementation, testing, and user -experience which relates a positive experience. -

    -Table 55 -- Clock Requirements (in 20.9.1 [time.clock.req]) -

    - -
      -
    1. -the requirements for C1::time_point require C1 and C2 -to "refer to the same epoch", but "epoch" is not defined. -
    2. -
    3. -"Different clocks may share a time_point definition if it is -valid to compare their time_points by comparing their -respective durations." What does "valid" mean here? And, since -C1::rep is "**THE** representation type of the native -duration and time_point" (emphasis added), there -doesn't seem to be much room for some other representation. -
    4. -
    5. -C1::is_monotonic has type "const bool". The -"const" should be removed. -
    6. -
    7. -C1::period has type ratio. ratio isn't a type, -it's a template. What is the required type? -

    - - -
      -
    1. -

      -"epoch" is purposefully not defined beyond the common English -definition. The C standard -also chose not to define epoch, though POSIX did. I believe it is a strength -of the C standard that epoch is not defined. When it is known that two time_points -refer to the same epoch, then a definition of the epoch is not needed to compare -the two time_points, or subtract them. -

      -

      -A time_point and a Clock implicitly refer to an (unspecified) epoch. -The time_point represents an offset (duration) from an epoch. -

      -
    2. -
    3. -

      -The sentence: -

      -
      -Different clocks -may share a time_point -definition if it is valid to -compare their time_points by -comparing their respective -durations. -
      - -

      -is redundant and could be removed. I believe the sentence which follows the above: -

      - -
      -C1 and C2 shall refer to the same epoch. -
      - -

      -is sufficient. If two clocks share the same epoch, then by definition, comparing -their time_points is valid. -

      -
    4. -
    5. -is_monotonic is meant to never change (be const). It is also -desired that this value be usable in compile-time computation and branching. -
    6. -
    7. -

      -This should probably instead be worded: -

      -
      -An instantiation of ratio. -

    -Dave brought to my attention that when a unique_ptr has a non-const reference -type deleter, move constructing from it, even when the unique_ptr containing -the reference is an rvalue, could have surprising results: -

    - -
    D d(some-state);
    -unique_ptr<A, D&> p(new A, d);
    -unique_ptr<A, D> p2 = std::move(p);
    -// has d's state changed here?

    Discussion:

    -

    -Introduction -

    - -

    This proposal is meant to resolve potential regression of the -N2800 -draft, see -next section, and to relax the requirements for containers of types with -throwing move constructors.

    - -

    The basic problem is that some containers operations, like push_back, -have a strong exception safety -guarantee (i.e. no side effects upon exception) that are not achievable when -throwing move constructors are used since there is no way to guarantee revert -after partial move. For such operations the implementation can at most provide -the basic guarantee (i.e. valid but unpredictable) as it does with multi -copying operations (e.g. range insert).

    - -

    For example, vector<T>::push_back() (where T has a move -constructor) might resize the vector and move the objects to the new underlying -buffer. If move constructor throws it might -not be possible to recover the throwing object or to move the old objects back to -the original buffer.

    - -

    The current draft is explicit by disallowing throwing move -for some operations (e.g. vector<>::reserve) and not clear about other -operations mentioned in 23.2.1 [container.requirements.general]/10 -(e.g. single element insert): it guarantees strong exception -safety without explicitly disallowing a throwing move constructor. -

    - -

    -Regression -

    - -

    This section only refers to cases in which the contained object -is by itself a standard container.

    - -

    Move constructors of standard containers are allowed to throw and therefore -existing operations are broken, compared with C++03, due to move optimization. -(In fact existing implementations like Dinkumware are actually throwing).

    - -

    For example, vector< list<int> >::reserve yields -undefined behavior since list<int>'s move constructor is allowed to throw. -On the other hand, the same operation has strong exception safety guarantee in -C++03.

    - -

    There are few options to solve this regression:

    - -
      -
    1. -Disallow throwing move and throwing default constructor -
    2. - -
    3. -Disallow throwing move but disallowing usage after move -
    4. - -
    5. -Special casing -
    6. - -
    7. -Disallow throwing move and making it optional -
    8. - -
    - -

    Option 1 is suggested by proposal -N2815 -but it might not be applicable for existing implementations for which -containers default constructors are throwing.

    - -

    Option 2 limits the usage significantly and it's error prone -by allowing zombie objects that are nothing but destructible (e.g. no clear() -is allowed after move). It also potentially complicates the implementation by -introducing special state.

    - -

    Option 3 is possible, for example, using default -construction and swap instead of move for standard containers case. The -implementation is also free to provide special hidden operation for non -throwing move without forcing the user the cope with the limitation of option-2 -when using the public move.

    - -

    Option 4 impact the efficiency in all use cases due to rare throwing move.

    - -

    The proposed wording will imply option 1 or 3 though option 2 is also -achievable using more wording. I personally oppose to option 2 that has impact -on usability.

    - -

    -Relaxation for user types -

    - -

    Disallowing throwing move constructors in general seems very restrictive -since, for example, common implementation of move will be default construction -+ swap so move will throw if the -default constructor will throw. This is currently the case with the Dinkumware -implementation of node based containers (e.g. std::list) -though this section doesn't refer to standard types.

    - -

    For throwing move constructors it seem that the implementation should have -no problems to provide the basic guarantee instead of the strong one. It's -better to allow throwing move constructors with basic guarantee than to -disallow it silently (compile and run), via undefined behavior.

    - -

    There might still be cases in which the relaxation will break existing generic -code that assumes the strong guarantee but it's broken either way given a -throwing move constructor since this is not a preserving optimization.

    -In https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/1846 -however Eric Niebler makes the very reasonable point that reference_wrapper<F>, -where F is a function type, represents a reference to a function, -a legitimate entity. So boost::ref was changed to allow it. -

    -I agree with Peter (and Eric). I got this one wrong on my first try. Here -is code that demonstrates how easy (and useful) it is to instantiate -reference_wrapper with a function type: -

    -While looking at thread::join() I think I spotted a couple of -possible defects in the specifications. I could not find a previous -issue or NB comment about that, but I might have missed it. -

    - -

    -The postconditions clause for thread::join() is: -

    - -
    -Postconditions: If join() throws an exception, the value -returned by get_id() is unchanged. Otherwise, get_id() == id(). -
    - -

    -and the throws clause is: -

    - -
    -Throws: std::system_error when the postconditions cannot be achieved. -
    - -

    -Now... how could the postconditions not be achieved? -It's just a matter of resetting the value of get_id() or leave it -unchanged! I bet we can always do that. Moreover, it's a chicken-and-egg -problem: in order to decide whether to throw or not I depend on the -postconditions, but the postconditions are different in the two cases. -

    - -

    -I believe the throws clause should be: -

    - -
    -Throws: std::system_error when the effects or postconditions -cannot be achieved. -
    - -

    -as it is in detach(), or, even better, as the postcondition is -trivially satisfiable and to remove the circular dependency: -

    - - -
    -Throws: std::system_error if the effects cannot be achieved. -
    - -

    -Problem is that... ehm... join() has no "Effects" clause. Is that intentional? -

    -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? -

    - -

    -Recommend: -

    - -

    -Clarify all the tables in 23.2 [container.requirements] 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. -

    -Working on constraining the stream iterators, I have a few more observations -to make on the concepts proposed while constraining the random number -facility. -

    -

    -While I still believe the concerns are orthogonal, I don't believe the -existing constraints go far enough either! The goal we want to achieve is -not that a RandomNumberEngine / RandomNumberDistribution supports the stream -operators, but that it is Serializable. I.e. there is a relationship -between the insert and extract operations that guarantees to restore the -state of the original object. This implies a coupling of the concepts -together in a broader concept (Serializable) with at least one axiom to -assert the semantics. -

    -

    -One problem is that istream and ostream may be fundamentally different -types, although we can hook a relation if we are prepared to drop down to -the char type and char_traits template parameters. Doing so ties us to a -form of serialization that demands implementation via the std iostreams -framework, which seems overly prescriptive. I believe the goal is generally -to support serialization without regard to how it is expressed - although -this is getting even more inventive in terms of concepts we do not have -today. -

    - - -

    [ -2009-08-01 Howard provided wording: -]

    - - -
    - -

    -The definition of "Throws: Nothing." that I added is probably going to -be controversial, but I beg you to consider it seriously. -

    - -
    -

    -In C++ there are three "flow control" options for a function: -

    - -
      -
    1. -It can return, either with a value, or with void. -
    2. -
    3. -It can call a function which never returns, such as std::exit or -std::terminate. -
    4. -
    5. -It can throw an exception. -
    6. -
    - -The above list can be abbreviated with: - -
      -
    1. Returns.
    2. -
    3. Ends program.
    4. -
    5. Throws exception.
    6. -
    - -

    -In general a function can have the behavior of any of these 3, or any combination -of any of these three, depending upon run time data. -

    - -
      -
    1. R
    2. -
    3. E
    4. -
    5. T
    6. -
    7. RE
    8. -
    9. RT
    10. -
    11. ET
    12. -
    13. RET
    14. -
    - -

    -A function with no throw spec, and no documentation, is in general a RET -function. It may return, it may end the program, or it may throw. When we -specify a function with an empty throw spec: -

    - -
    void f() throw();
    -
    - -

    -We are saying that f() is an RE function: It may return or end -the program, but it will not throw. -

    - -

    -I posit that there are very few places in the library half of the standard -where we intend for functions to be able to end the program (call terminate). -And none of those places where we do say terminate could be called, -do we currently say "Throws: Nothing.". -

    - -

    -I believe that if we define "Throws: Nothing." to mean R, -we will both clarify many, many places in the standard, and give us a -good rationale for choosing between "Throws: Nothing." (R) -and throw() (RE) in the future. Indeed, this may give us motivation -to change several throw()s to "Throws: Nothing.". -

    -
    - -

    -I did not add the following changes as JP 76 requested as I believe we want to -allow these functions to throw: -

    -There are a couple of issues with the declaration of the random_shuffle -algorithm accepting a random number engine. -

    - -
      -
    1. -The Iterators must be shuffle iterators, yet this requirement is missing. -
    2. -
    3. -The RandomNumberEngine concept is now provided by the random number -library -(n2836) -and the placeholder should be removed. -

    [ -2009-05-02 Daniel adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -this issue completes adding necessary requirement to the -third new random_shuffle overload. The current suggestion is: -

    - -
    template<RandomAccessIterator Iter, UniformRandomNumberGenerator Rand>
    -requires ShuffleIterator<Iter>
    -void random_shuffle(Iter first, Iter last, Rand&& g);
    -
    - -

    -IMO this is still insufficient and I suggest to add the requirement -

    -
    Convertible<Rand::result_type, Iter::difference_type>
    -
    -

    -to the list (as the two other overloads already have). -

    - -

    -Rationale: -

    - -
    -

    -Its true that this third overload is somewhat different from the remaining -two. Nevertheless we know from UniformRandomNumberGenerator, that -it's result_type is an integral type and that it satisfies -UnsignedIntegralLike<result_type>. -

    -

    -To realize it's designated task, the algorithm has to invoke the -Callable aspect of g and needs to perform some algebra involving -it's min()/max() limits to compute another index value that -at this point is converted into Iter::difference_type. This is so, -because 24.2.5 [random.access.iterators] uses this type as argument -of it's algebraic operators. Alternatively consider the equivalent -iterator algorithms in 24.4.4 [iterator.operations] with the same result. -

    -

    -This argument leads us to the conclusion that we also need -Convertible<Rand::result_type, Iter::difference_type> here. -

    Addresses DE 18

    - -

    - In 20.8.15.6 [util.dynamic.safety], get_pointer_safety() purports -to define behavior for - non-safely derived pointers (3.7.4.3 [basic.stc.dynamic.safety]). However, - the cited core-language section in paragraph 4 specifies undefined behavior - for the use of such pointer values. This seems an unfortunate near-contradiction. - I suggest to specify the term relaxed pointer safety in - the core language section and refer to it from the library description. - This issue deals with the library part, the corresponding core issue (c++std-core-13940) - deals with the core modifications. -

    -[2009-03-21 Sat] p. 535 at the top we need MoveConstructible V1, -MoveConstructible V2 (where V1,V2 are defined on 539). Also make_tuple -on 550 -

    - -
    -

    -CD-1 reads: -

    - -
    template <MoveConstructible T1, MoveConstructible T2> 
    -pair<V1, V2> make_pair(T1&&, T2&&); 
    -
    - -

    -Actually I'm guessing we need something like MoveConstructible<V1,T1>, -i.e. "V1 can be constructed from an rvalue of type T1." -

    - -

    -Ditto for make_tuple -

    -
    - -

    -[2009-03-21 Sat] p1183 thread ctor, and in general, we need a way to -talk about "copiable from generalized rvalue ref argument" for cases -where we're going to forward and copy. -

    -
    -

    - This issue may well be quite large. Language in para 4 about "if - an lvalue" is wrong because types aren't expressions. -

    - -
    -

    -Maybe we should define the term "move" so we can just say in the -effects, "f is moved into the newly-created thread" or something, and -agree (and ideally document) that saying "f is moved" implies -

    - -
    F x(move(f))
    -
    - -

    -is required to work. That would cover both ctors at once. -

    -
    - -

    - p1199, call_once has all the same issues. -

    -
    -

    -[2009-03-21 Sat] p869 InputIterator pointer type should not be required -to be convertible to const value_type*, rather it needs to have a -operator-> of its own that can be used for the value type. -

    - -
    -This one is serious and unrelated to the move issue. -
    - -

    -[2009-03-21 Sat] p818 stack has the same problem with default ctor. -

    -

    -[2009-03-21 Sat] p816 priority_queue has the same sorts of problems as queue, only more so -

    -
       requires MoveConstructible<Cont> 
    -     explicit priority_queue(const Compare& x = Compare(), Cont&& = Cont()); 
    -
    -

    - Don't require MoveConstructible when default constructing Cont. - Also missing semantics for move ctor. -

    -
    -

    - [2009-03-21 Sat] Why are Allocators required to be CopyConstructible as - opposed to MoveConstructible? -

    -

    - [2009-03-21 Sat] p813 queue needs a separate default ctor (Cont needn't - be MoveConstructible). No documented semantics for move c'tor. Or - *any* of its 7 ctors! -

    -

    - [2009-03-21 Sat] std::array should have constructors for C++0x, - consequently must consider move construction. -

    - -

    [ -2009-05-01 Daniel adds: -]

    - - -
    -This could be done as part of 1035, which already handles -deviation of std::array from container tables. -

    - [2009-03-21 Sat] p622 all messed up. -

    -
    -

    - para 8 "implementation-defined" is the wrong term; should be "see - below" or something. -

    -

    - para 12 "will be selected" doesn't make any sense because we're not - talking about actual arg types. -

    -

    - paras 9-13 need to be totally rewritten for concepts. -

    -
    - -

    - [2009-03-21 Sat] Null pointer comparisons (p587) have all become - unconstrained. Need to fix that -

    -

    - [2009-03-21 Sat] mem_fun_t etc. definition doesn't match declaration. - We think CopyConstructible is the right reqt. -

    -

    - make_pair needs Constructible<V1, T1&&> requirements! -

    -

    - make_tuple needs something similar -

    -

    - tuple bug in synopsis: -

    -
       template <class... UTypes>
    -   requires Constructible<Types, const UTypes&>...
    -   template <class... UTypes>
    -   requires Constructible<Types, RvalueOf<UTypes>::type>...

    -The current formulation of 30.2.2 [thread.req.exception]/2 reads: -

    -
    -The error_category of the error_code reported by such an -exception's code() member function is as specified in the error -condition Clause. -
    -

    -This constraint on the code's associated error_categor means an -implementation must perform a mapping from the system-generated -error to a generic_category() error code. The problems with this -include: -

    - -
      -
    • -The mapping is always performed, even if the resultant value is - never used. -
    • -
    • -

      -The original error produced by the operating system is lost. -

      -
    • -
    -

    -The latter was one of Peter Dimov's main objections (in a private -email discussion) to the original error_code-only design, and led to -the creation of error_condition in the first place. Specifically, -error_code and error_condition are intended to perform the following -roles: -

    -
      -
    • -error_code holds the original error produced by the operating - system. -
    • -
    • -error_condition and the generic category provide a set of well - known error constants that error codes may be tested against. -
    • -
    -

    -Any mapping determining correspondence of the returned error code to -the conditions listed in the error condition clause falls under the -"latitude" granted to implementors in 19.5.1.5 [syserr.errcat.objects]. -(Although obviously their latitude is restricted a little by the -need to match the right error condition when returning an error code -from a library function.) -

    -  requires CopyConstructible<Function>

    -1 Effects: Applies f to the result of dereferencing every iterator in the - range [first,last), starting from first and proceeding to last - 1. -

    -

    -2 Returns: f. -

    -

    -3 Complexity: Applies f exactly last - first times. -

    -
    -
    - -

    -P2 implies the passed object f should be invoked at each stage, rather than -some copy of f. This is important if the return value is to usefully -accumulate changes. So the requirements are an object of type Function can -be passed-by-value, invoked multiple times, and then return by value. In -this case, MoveConstructible is sufficient. This would open support for -move-only functors, which might become important in concurrent code as you -can assume there are no other references (copies) of a move-only type and so -freely use them concurrently without additional locks. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -Std::bitset is a homogeneous container-like sequence of bits, yet it does -not model the Range concept so cannot be used with the new for-loop syntax. -It is the only such type in the library that does NOT support the new for -loop. -

    -

    -The obvious reason is that bitset does not support iterators. -

    -

    -At least two reasonable solutions are available: -

    -
      -
    1. -Add an iterator interface to bitset, bringing its interface close to that -of std::array -
    2. -
    3. -Provide an unspecified concept_map for Range<bitset>. -
    4. -
    -

    -The latter will still need some kind of iterator-like adapter for bitset, -but gives implementers greater freedom on the details. E.g. begin/end return -some type that simply invokes operator[] on the object it wraps, and -increments its index on operator++. A vendor can settle for InputIterator -support, rather than wrapping up a full RandomAccessIterator. -

    -

    -I have a mild preference for option (ii) as I think it is less work to -specify at this stage of the process, although (i) is probably more useful -in the long run. -

    -

    -Hmm, my wording looks a little woolly, as it does not say what the element -type of the range is. Do I get a range of bool, bitset<N>::reference, or -something else entirely? -

    -

    -I guess most users will assume the behaviour of reference, but expect to -work with bool. Bool is OK for read-only traversal, but you really need to -take a reference to a bitset::reference if you want to write back. -

      -
      -

      - -1. In the begin and end function templates that follow, unspecified-1 -is a type that meets the requirements of a mutable random access -iterator (24.2.5 [random.access.iterators]) whose value_type is bool and -whose reference type is bitset<N>::reference. -unspecified-2 is a type that meets the requirements of a constant -random access iterator (24.2.5 [random.access.iterators]) whose value_type -is bool and whose reference type is bool. - -

    -The APIs tuple_size and tuple_element do not support -cv-qualified tuples, pairs or arrays. -

    -

    -The most generic solution would be to supply partial specializations once -for each cv-type in the tuple header. However, requiring this header for -cv-qualified pairs/arrays seems unhelpful. The BSI editorial -suggestion (UK-198/US-69, -N2533) -to merge tuple into <utility> would help with pair, -but not array.

    -As currently formulated, the standard doesn't require that there -is ever a flush of cout, etc. (This implies, for example, that -the classical hello, world program may have no output.) In the -current draft -(N2798), -there is a requirement that the objects -be constructed before main, and before the dynamic -initialization of any non-local objects defined after the -inclusion of <iostream> in the same translation unit. The only -requirement that I can find concerning flushing, however, is in -27.5.2.1.6 [ios::Init], where the destructor of the last -std::ios_base::Init object flushes. But there is, as far as I -can see, no guarantee that such an object ever exists. -

    -

    -Also, the wording in [iostreams.objects] says that: -

    -
    -The objects -are constructed and the associations are established at some -time prior to or during the first time an object of class -ios_base::Init is constructed, and in any case before the body -of main begins execution. -
    -

    -In 27.5.2.1.6 [ios::Init], however, as an -effect of the constructor, it says that -

    -
    -If init_cnt is zero, -the function stores the value one in init_cnt, then constructs -and initializes the objects cin, cout, cerr, clog -wcin, wcout, wcerr, and wclog" -
    - -

    -which seems to forbid earlier -construction. -

    - -

    -(Note that with these changes, the exposition only "static -int init_cnt" in ios_base::Init can be dropped.) -

    -

    -Of course, a determined programmer can still inhibit the -flush with things like: -

    -
    new std::ios_base::Init ;       //  never deleted 
    -
    -

    -or (in a function): -

    -
    std::ios_base::Init ensureConstruction ; 
    -//  ... 
    -exit( EXIT_SUCCESS ) ; 
    -
    -

    -Perhaps some words somewhere to the effect that all -std::ios_base::Init objects should have static lifetime -would be in order. -

    -

    -The naming of std::copy_exception misleads almost everyone -(experts included!) to think that it is the function that copies an -exception_ptr: -

    - -
    exception_ptr p1 = current_exception();
    -exception_ptr p2 = copy_exception( p1 );
    -
    - -

    -But this is not at all what it does. The above actually creates an -exception_ptr p2 that contains a copy of p1, not of -the exception to which p1 refers! -

    -

    -This is, of course, all my fault; in my defence, I used copy_exception -because I was unable to think of a better name. -

    -

    -But I believe that, based on what we've seen so far, any other name would be better. -

    -

    -IIUC, -N2844 -means that lvalues will no longer bind to rvalue references. -Therefore, the current specification of list::splice (list -operations 23.3.4.4 [list.ops]) will be a breaking change of behaviour for existing -programs. That is because we changed the signature to swallow via an rvalue -reference rather than the lvalue reference used in 03. -

    -

    -Retaining this form would be safer, requiring an explicit move when splicing -from lvalues. However, this will break existing programs. -We have the same problem with forward_list, although without the risk of -breaking programs so here it might be viewed as a positive feature. -

    -It was recently mentioned in a newsgroup article -http://groups.google.de/group/comp.std.c++/msg/f82022aff68edf3d -that the specification of the member function rethrow_nested() of the -class nested_exception is incomplete, specifically it remains unclear -what happens, if member nested_ptr() returns a null value. In -18.8.6 [except.nested] we find only the following paragraph related to that: -

    void rethrow_nested() const; // [[noreturn]]
    -
    -
    --4- Throws: the stored exception captured by this nested_exception object. -

    -
    #include <exception>

    - -

    -(This has no effect on arg, imag, norm, real: -they are real-valued anyway.) -

    -

    Rationale:

    -

    -Mathematically, conj() and proj(), like the transcendental functions, are -complex-valued in general but map the (extended) real line to itself. -In fact, both functions act as identity on the reals. -A typical user will expect conj() and proj() to preserve this essential -mathematical property in the same way as exp(), sin(), etc. -A typical use of conj(), e.g., is the generic scalar product of n-vectors: -

    - -
    template<typename T>
    -inline T
    -scalar_product(size_t n, T const* x, T const* y) {
    -  T result = 0;
    -  for (size_t i = 0; i < n; ++i)
    -    result += x[i] * std::conj(y[i]);
    -  return result;
    -}
    -
    -

    -This will work equally well for real and complex floating-point types T if -conj() returns T. It will not work with real types if conj() -returns complex values. -

    -

    -Instead, the implementation of scalar_product becomes either less efficient -and less useful (if a complex result is always returned), or unnecessarily -complicated (if overloaded versions with proper return types are defined). -In the second case, the real-argument overload of conj() cannot be used. -In fact, it must be avoided. -

    -

    -Overloaded conj() and proj() are principally needed in generic programming. -All such use cases will benefit from the proposed return type requirement, -in a similar way as the scalar_product example. -The requirement will not harm use cases where a complex return value -is expected, because of implicit conversion to complex. -Without the proposed return type guarantee, I find overloaded versions -of conj() and proj() not only useless but actually troublesome. -

    - - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -

    -Insert a new paragraph after 26.4.9 [cmplx.over]/2: -

    - -
    - -All of the specified overloads shall have a return type which is the nested value_type of -the effectively promoted arguments. - -

    Description

    -

    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?

    UK 327 Description

    -

    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.

    - -

    UK 327 Suggestion

    -

    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.

    -

    UK 327 Notes

    -

    Create an issue. Assigned to Lawrence Crowl. Note: not sure what try_lock - means for recursive locks when you are the owner. POSIX has language on - this, which should ideally be followed. Proposed fix is not quite right, for - example, try_lock should have different wording from lock.

    - -

    UK 328 Description

    - -

    There is a missing precondition that owns - is true, or an if(owns) test is missing from the effect - clause

    Discussion:

    -

    -As specified in the latest draft, -N2914, -num_get is still not fully compatible with the following C -functions: strtoul, strtoull, -strtof and -strtod. -

    -

    -In C, when conversion of a string to an unsigned integer type falls -outside the -representable range, strtoul and strtoull return -ULONG_MAX and ULLONG_MAX, respectively, -regardless -whether the input field represents a positive or a negative value. -On the other hand, the result of num_get conversion of -negative -values to unsigned integer types is zero. This raises a compatibility -issue. -

    -

    -Moreover, in C, when conversion of a string to a floating-point type falls -outside the representable range, strtof, strtod -and -strtold return ±HUGE_VALF, -±HUGE_VAL and ±HUGE_VALL, respectively. -On the other hand, the result of num_get conversion of such -out-of-range floating-point values results in the most positive/negative -representable value. -Although many C library implementations do implement HUGE_VAL -(etc.) as the highest representable (which is, usually, the infinity), -this -isn't required by the C standard. The C library specification makes no -statement regarding the value of HUGE_VAL and friends, which -potentially raises the same compatibility issue as in the above case of -unsigned integers. -In addition, neither C nor C++ define symbolic constants for the maximum -representable floating-point values (they only do so only for the maximum -representable finite floating-point values), which raises a -usability -issue (it would be hard for the programmer to check the result of -num_get against overflow). -

    -

    -As such, we propose to adjust the specification of num_get to -closely follow the behavior of all of its underlying C functions. -

    - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    - -

    -Change 22.4.2.1.2 [facet.num.get.virtuals] as follows: -

    -
    -

    -Stage 3: -The sequence of chars accumulated in stage 2 (the field) is -converted to a numeric value by the rules of one of the functions declared in -the header <cstdlib>: -

    -
      -
    • For a signed integer value, the function strtoll.
    • -
    • For an unsigned integer value, the function strtoull.
    • -
    • For a float value, the function - strtof.
    • -
    • For a double value, the function - strtod.
    • -
    • For a floating-point long double - value, the function strtold.
    • -
    -

    -The numeric value to be stored can be one of: -

    -
      -
    • zero, if the conversion function fails to convert the entire field. - ios_base::failbit is assigned to err.
    • -
    • the most positive (or negative) representable value, if - the field to be converted to a signed integer type represents a - value too large positive (or negative) to be represented in - val. - ios_base::failbit is assigned to err.
    • -
    • the most negative representable value or zero for an unsigned integer - type, if the field represents a value too large negative to be represented - in val. - ios_base::failbit is assigned to err.
    • -
    • the most positive representable value, if the field to be converted to - an unsigned integer type represents a value that cannot be represented in - val.
    • -
    • the converted value, otherwise.
    • -
    -

    -The resultant numeric value is stored in val. -If the conversion function fails to convert the entire field, or if the -field represents a value outside the range of representable values, -ios_base::failbit is assigned to err. -

    1170. String char-like types no longer PODs

    Discussion:

    - -

    Addresses UK 218

    - -

    Prior to the introduction of constant expressions into the library, -basic_string elements had to be POD types, and thus had to be both trivially -copyable and standard-layout. This ensured that they could be memcpy'ed and -would be compatible with other libraries and languages, particularly the C -language and its library.

    -

    -N2349, -Constant Expressions in the Standard Library Revision 2, changed the -requirement in 21/1 from "POD type" to "literal type". That change had the -effect of removing the trivially copyable and standard-layout requirements from -basic_string elements.

    -

    This means that basic_string elements no longer are guaranteed to be -memcpy'able, and are no longer guaranteed to be standard-layout types:

    -
    -

    3.9/p2 and 3.9/p3 both make it clear that a "trivially copyable type" is - required for memcpy to be guaranteed to work.

    -

    Literal types (3.9p12) may have a non-trivial copy assignment operator, and - that violates the trivially copyable requirements given in 9/p 6, bullet item - 2.

    -

    Literal types (3.9p12) have no standard-layout requirement, either.

    -
    -

    This situation probably arose because the wording for "Constant Expressions -in the Standard Library" was in process at the same time the C++ POD -deconstruction wording was in process.

    -

    Since trivially copyable types meet the C++0x requirements for literal types, -and thus work with constant expressions, it seems an easy fix to revert the -basic_string element wording to its original state.

    - - -
    -When looking for any resolution for this issue, consider the definition of -"character container type" in 17.3.4 [defns.character.container]. This -does require the character type to be a POD, and this term is used in a -number of places through clause 21 and 28. This suggests the PODness -constraint remains, but is much more subtle than before. Meanwhile, I -suspect the change from POD type to literal type was intentional with -the assumption that trivially copyable types with -non-trivial-but-constexpr constructors should serve as well. I don't -believe the current wording offers the right guarantees for either of -the above designs. -
    - -

    [ -2009-11-04 Howard modifies proposed wording to disallow array types as -char-like types. -]

    - - - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    - -

    Change General 21.1 [strings.general] as indicated:

    -
    -

    This Clause describes components for manipulating sequences of any -literal non-array POD (3.9) type. In this Clause -such types are called char-like types, and objects of char-like -types are called char-like objects or simply -characters.

    -Issue: The CopyConstructible requirements are wishy-washy. It requires -that the copy is "equivalent" to the original, but "equivalent" is never -defined. -

    -I believe this to be an example of a more general lack of rigor around -copy and assignment, although I haven't done the research to dig up all -the instances. -

    -It's a problem because if you don't know what CopyConstructible means, -you also don't know what it means to copy a pair of CopyConstructible -types. It doesn't prevent us from writing code, but it is a hole in our -ability to understand the meaning of copy. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -Several heterogeneous comparison operators of class template -sub_match are specified by return clauses that are not valid -in general. E.g. 28.9.2 [re.submatch.op]/7: -

    - -
    template <class BiIter, class ST, class SA>
    -bool operator==(
    -  const basic_string<
    -    typename iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type, ST, SA>& lhs,
    -  const sub_match<BiIter>& rhs);
    -
    -
    -Returns: lhs == rhs.str(). -
    -
    - -

    -The returns clause would be ill-formed for all cases where -ST != std::char_traits<iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type> -or SA != std::allocator<iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type>. -

    -

    -The generic character of the comparison was intended, so -there are basically two approaches to fix the problem: The -first one would define the semantics of the comparison -using the traits class ST (The semantic of basic_string::compare -is defined in terms of the compare function of the corresponding -traits class), the second one would define the semantics of the -comparison using the traits class -

    - -
    std::char_traits<iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type>
    -
    - -

    -which is essentially identical to -

    - -
    std::char_traits<sub_match<BiIter>::value_type>
    -
    - -

    -I suggest to follow the second approach, because -this emphasizes the central role of the sub_match -object as part of the comparison and would also -make sure that a sub_match comparison using some -basic_string<char_t, ..> always is equivalent to -a corresponding comparison with a string literal -because of the existence of further overloads (beginning -from 28.9.2 [re.submatch.op]/19). If users really want to -take advantage of their own traits::compare, they can -simply write a corresponding compare function that -does so. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -The implied library dependencies created by spelling out all the hash -template specializations in the <functional> synopsis are unfortunate. -The potential coupling is greatly reduced if the hash specialization is -declared in the appropriate header for each library type, as it is much -simpler to forward declare the primary template and provide a single -specialization than it is to implement a hash function for a string or -vector without providing a definition for the whole string/vector -template in order to access the necessary bits. -

    - -

    -Note that the proposed resolution purely involves moving the -declarations of a few specializations, it specifically does not make any -changes to 20.7.16 [unord.hash]. -

    Discussion:

    -The protected member function set_rdbuf had been added during the -process of adding move and swap semantics to IO classes. A relevant -property of this function is described by it's effects in -27.5.4.2 [basic.ios.members]/19: -

    - -
    -Effects: Associates the basic_streambuf object pointed to by sb with -this stream without calling clear(). -
    - -

    -This means that implementors of or those who derive from existing IO classes -could cause an internal state where the stream buffer could be 0, but the -IO class has the state good(). This would break several currently existing -implementations which rely on the fact that setting a stream buffer via the -currently only ways, i.e. either by calling -

    - -
    void init(basic_streambuf<charT,traits>* sb);
    -
    - -

    -or by calling -

    - -
    basic_streambuf<charT,traits>* rdbuf(basic_streambuf<charT,traits>* sb);
    -
    - -

    -to set rdstate() to badbit, if the buffer is 0. This has the effect that many -internal functions can simply check rdstate() instead of rdbuf() for being 0. -

    - -

    -I therefore suggest that a requirement is added for callers of set_rdbuf to -set a non-0 value. -

    - -

    [ -2009-10 Santa Cruz: -]

    - - -
    -Moved to Open. Martin volunteers to provide new wording, where -set_rdbuf() sets the badbit but does not cause an -exception to be thrown like a call to clear() would. -
    - -

    [ -2009-10-20 Martin provides wording: -]

    - - - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -

    -Change 27.5.4.2 [basic.ios.members] around p. 19 as indicated: -

    - -
    void set_rdbuf(basic_streambuf<charT, traits>* sb);
    -
    - -
    -

    -Effects: Associates the basic_streambuf object pointed -to by sb with this stream without calling clear(). -Postconditions: rdbuf() == sb. -

    - -

    -Effects: As if: -

    - -
    
    -iostate state = rdstate();
    -try { rdbuf(sb); }
    -catch(ios_base::failure) {
    -   if (0 == (state & ios_base::badbit))
    -       unsetf(badbit);
    -}
    -
    - -

    -Throws: Nothing. -

    - -
    -
    - - -

    Rationale:

    -We need to be able to call set_rdbuf() on stream objects -for which (rdbuf() == 0) holds without causing ios_base::failure to -be thrown. We also don't want badbit to be set as a result of -setting rdbuf() to 0 if it wasn't set before the call. This changed -Effects clause maintains the current behavior (as of N2914) without -requiring that sb be non-null. - - - - - -

    -(wording relative to -N2723 -pending new working paper) -

    - -

    -According to p3 24.2 [iterator.requirements], Forward iterators, -Bidirectional iterators and Random Access iterators all satisfy the -requirements for an Output iterator: -

    - -
    -XXX iterators satisfy all the requirements of the input and output iterators -and can be used whenever either kind is specified ... -
    - -

    -Meanwhile, p4 goes on to contradict this: -

    - -
    -Besides its category, a forward, bidirectional, or random access -iterator can also be mutable or constant... -
    - -
    -... Constant iterators do not satisfy the requirements for output iterators -
    - -

    -The latter seems to be the overriding concern, as the iterator tag -hierarchy does not define forward_iterator_tag as multiply derived from -both input_iterator_tag and output_iterator_tag. -

    - -

    -The work on concepts for iterators showed us that output iterator really -is fundamentally a second dimension to the iterator categories, rather -than part of the linear input -> forward -> bidirectional -> -random-access sequence. It would be good to clear up these words to -reflect that, and separately list output iterator requirements in the -requires clauses for the appropriate algorithms and operations. -

    1186. Forward list could model a stack

    Discussion:

    -

    -The library template forward_list could easily model the idea of a -stack, where the operations work on the front of the list rather than -the back. However, the standard library stack adaptor cannot support -this. -

    - -

    -It would be relatively easy to write a partial specialization for stack -to support forward_list, but that opens the question of which header to -place it in. A much better solution would be to add a concept_map for -the StackLikeContainer concept to the <forward_list> header and then -everything just works, including a user's own further uses in a -stack-like context. -

    - -

    -Therefore while I am submitting the issue now so that it is on record, I -strongly recommend we resolve as "NAD Concepts" as any non-concepts -based solution will be inferior to the final goal, and the feature is -not so compelling it must be supported ahead of the concepts-based -library. -

    1188. Unordered containers should have a minimum load factor as well as a maximum

    -

    Discussion:

    -

    -Unordered associative containers have a notion of a maximum load factor: -when the number of elements grows large enough, the containers -automatically perform a rehash so that the number of elements per bucket -stays below a user-specified bound. This ensures that the hash table's -performance characteristics don't change dramatically as the size -increases. -

    - -

    -For similar reasons, Google has found it useful to specify a minimum -load factor: when the number of elements shrinks by a large enough, the -containers automatically perform a rehash so that the number of elements -per bucket stays above a user-specified bound. This is useful for two -reasons. First, it prevents wasting a lot of memory when an unordered -associative container grows temporarily. Second, it prevents amortized -iteration time from being arbitrarily large; consider the case of a hash -table with a billion buckets and only one element. (This was discussed -even before TR1 was published; it was TR issue 6.13, which the LWG -closed as NAD on the grounds that it was a known design feature. -However, the LWG did not consider the approach of a minimum load -factor.) -

    - -

    -The only interesting question is when shrinking is allowed. In principle -the cleanest solution would be shrinking on erase, just as we grow on -insert. However, that would be a usability problem; it would break a -number of common idioms involving erase. Instead, Google's hash tables -only shrink on insert and rehash. -

    - -

    -The proposed resolution allows, but does not require, shrinking in -rehash, mostly because a postcondition for rehash that involves the -minimum load factor would be fairly complicated. (It would probably have -to involve a number of special cases and it would probably have to -mention yet another parameter, a minimum bucket count.) -

    - -

    -The current behavior is equivalent to a minimum load factor of 0. If we -specify that 0 is the default, this change will have no impact on -backward compatibility. -

    +

    This proposal is meant to resolve potential regression of the +N2800 +draft, see +next section, and to relax the requirements for containers of types with +throwing move constructors.

    +

    The basic problem is that some containers operations, like push_back, +have a strong exception safety +guarantee (i.e. no side effects upon exception) that are not achievable when +throwing move constructors are used since there is no way to guarantee revert +after partial move. For such operations the implementation can at most provide +the basic guarantee (i.e. valid but unpredictable) as it does with multi +copying operations (e.g. range insert).

    +

    For example, vector<T>::push_back() (where T has a move +constructor) might resize the vector and move the objects to the new underlying +buffer. If move constructor throws it might +not be possible to recover the throwing object or to move the old objects back to +the original buffer.

    1189. Awkward interface for changing the number of buckets in an unordered associative container

    Discussion:

    -

    -Consider a typical use case: I create an unordered_map and then start -adding elements to it one at a time. I know that it will eventually need -to store a few million elements, so, for performance reasons, I would -like to reserve enough capacity that none of the calls to insert will -trigger a rehash. +

    The current draft is explicit by disallowing throwing move +for some operations (e.g. vector<>::reserve) and not clear about other +operations mentioned in 23.2.1 [container.requirements.general]/10 +(e.g. single element insert): it guarantees strong exception +safety without explicitly disallowing a throwing move constructor.

    -Unfortunately, the existing interface makes this awkward. The user -naturally sees the problem in terms of the number of elements, but the -interface presents it as buckets. If m is the map and n is the expected -number of elements, this operation is written m.rehash(n / -m.max_load_factor()) — not very novice friendly. +Regression

    -

    [ -2009-09-30 Daniel adds: -]

    - +

    This section only refers to cases in which the contained object +is by itself a standard container.

    -
    -I recommend to replace "resize" by a different name like -"reserve", because that would better match the intended -use-case. Rational: Any existing resize function has the on-success -post-condition that the provided size is equal to size(), which -is not satisfied for the proposal. Reserve seems to fit the purpose of -the actual renaming suggestion. -
    +

    Move constructors of standard containers are allowed to throw and therefore +existing operations are broken, compared with C++03, due to move optimization. +(In fact existing implementations like Dinkumware are actually throwing).

    -

    [ -2009-10-28 Ganesh summarizes alternative resolutions and expresses a -strong preference for the second (and opposition to the first): -]

    +

    For example, vector< list<int> >::reserve yields +undefined behavior since list<int>'s move constructor is allowed to throw. +On the other hand, the same operation has strong exception safety guarantee in +C++03.

    +

    There are few options to solve this regression:

    -
    1. -

      -In the unordered associative container requirements (23.2.5 [unord.req]), -remove the row for -rehash and replace it with: -

      - -
      - - +Disallow throwing move and throwing default constructor + - - - - - - - - - - -

      -
      +
    2. +Disallow throwing move but disallowing usage after move +
    3. -

      -Make the corresponding change in the class synopses in 23.5.1 -[unord.map], 23.5.2 [unord.multimap], 23.5.3 [unord.set], and 23.5.4 -[unord.multiset]. -

      +
    4. +Special casing
    5. +
    6. +Disallow throwing move and making it optional +
    7. -

      -In 23.2.5 [unord.req]/9, table 98, append a new row after the last one: -

      +
    -
    - - +

    Option 1 is suggested by proposal +N2815 +but it might not be applicable for existing implementations for which +containers default constructors are throwing.

    -a.reserve(n) - -void - -Same as a.rehash(ceil(n / a.max_load_factor())) - -Average case linear in a.size(), worst case quadratic. -
    -
    +

    Option 2 limits the usage significantly and it's error prone +by allowing zombie objects that are nothing but destructible (e.g. no clear() +is allowed after move). It also potentially complicates the implementation by +introducing special state.

    + +

    Option 3 is possible, for example, using default +construction and swap instead of move for standard containers case. The +implementation is also free to provide special hidden operation for non +throwing move without forcing the user the cope with the limitation of option-2 +when using the public move.

    + +

    Option 4 impact the efficiency in all use cases due to rare throwing move.

    + +

    The proposed wording will imply option 1 or 3 though option 2 is also +achievable using more wording. I personally oppose to option 2 that has impact +on usability.

    -In 23.5.1 [unord.map]/3 in the definition of class template unordered_map, in -23.5.2 [unord.multimap]/3 in the definition of class template unordered_multimap, in -23.5.3 [unord.set]/3 in the definition of class template unordered_set and in -23.5.4 [unord.multiset]/3 in the definition of class template unordered_multiset, add the -following line after member function rehash(): +Relaxation for user types

    -
    void reserve(size_type n);
    -
    +

    Disallowing throwing move constructors in general seems very restrictive +since, for example, common implementation of move will be default construction ++ swap so move will throw if the +default constructor will throw. This is currently the case with the Dinkumware +implementation of node based containers (e.g. std::list) +though this section doesn't refer to standard types.

    -
  • - - +

    For throwing move constructors it seem that the implementation should have +no problems to provide the basic guarantee instead of the strong one. It's +better to allow throwing move constructors with basic guarantee than to +disallow it silently (compile and run), via undefined behavior.

    + +

    There might still be cases in which the relaxation will break existing generic +code that assumes the strong guarantee but it's broken either way given a +throwing move constructor since this is not a preserving optimization.

    Discussion:

    -Unlike the containers in clause 23, basic_string has definitions for -begin() and end(), but these have not been updated to include cbegin, -cend, crbegin and crend. +As specified in the latest draft, +N2914, +num_get is still not fully compatible with the following C +functions: strtoul, strtoull, +strtof and +strtod.

    - - -
    -Moved to Tentatively NAD after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib. Added -rationale. -
    - -

    [ -2009-10-28 Alisdair disagrees: -]

    - - -

    -I'm going to have to speak up as the dissenting voice. +In C, when conversion of a string to an unsigned integer type falls +outside the +representable range, strtoul and strtoull return +ULONG_MAX and ULLONG_MAX, respectively, +regardless +whether the input field represents a positive or a negative value. +On the other hand, the result of num_get conversion of +negative +values to unsigned integer types is zero. This raises a compatibility +issue.

    -

    -I agree the issue could be handled editorially, and that would be my -preference if Pete feels this is appropriate. Failing that, I really -think this issue should be accepted and moved to ready. The other -begin/end functions all have a semantic definition for this template, -and it is confusing if a small few are missing. +Moreover, in C, when conversion of a string to a floating-point type falls +outside the representable range, strtof, strtod +and +strtold return ±HUGE_VALF, +±HUGE_VAL and ±HUGE_VALL, respectively. +On the other hand, the result of num_get conversion of such +out-of-range floating-point values results in the most positive/negative +representable value. +Although many C library implementations do implement HUGE_VAL +(etc.) as the highest representable (which is, usually, the infinity), +this +isn't required by the C standard. The C library specification makes no +statement regarding the value of HUGE_VAL and friends, which +potentially raises the same compatibility issue as in the above case of +unsigned integers. +In addition, neither C nor C++ define symbolic constants for the maximum +representable floating-point values (they only do so only for the maximum +representable finite floating-point values), which raises a +usability +issue (it would be hard for the programmer to check the result of +num_get against overflow).

    -

    -I agree that an alternative would be to strike all the definitions for -begin/end/rbegin/rend and defer completely to the requirements tables in -clause 23. I think that might be confusing without a forward reference -though, as those tables are defined in a *later* clause than the -basic_string template itself. If someone wants to pursue this I would -support it, but recommend it as a separate issue. +As such, we propose to adjust the specification of num_get to +closely follow the behavior of all of its underlying C functions.

    -

    -So my preference is strongly to move Ready over NAD, and a stronger -preference for NAD Editorial if Pete is happy to make these changes. -

    Discussion:

    -23.3.5.1.1 [queue.defn] has the following queue constructor: +When I look at the unordered_* constructors, I think the complexity is poorly +described and does not follow the style of the rest of the standard.

    -
    template <class Alloc> explicit queue(const Alloc&);
    -
    -

    -This will be implemented like so: +The complexity for the default constructor is specified as constant. + Actually, it is proportional to n, but there are no invocations of +value_type constructors or other value_type operations.

    -
    template <class Alloc> explicit queue(const Alloc& a) : c(a) {}
    -
    -

    -The issue is that Alloc can be anything that a container will construct -from, for example an int. Is this intended to compile? +For the iterator-based constructor the complexity should be:

    -
    queue<int> q(5);
    -
    +
    +Complexity: exactly n calls to construct value_type +from InputIterator::value_type (where n = distance(f,l)). +The number of calls to key_equal::operator() is proportional to +n in the average case and n*n in the worst case. +
    -

    -Before the addition of this constructor, queue<int>(5) would not compile. -I ask, not because this crashes, but because it is new and appears to be -unintended. We do not want to be in a position of accidently introducing this -"feature" in C++0X and later attempting to remove it. -

    1213. Meaning of valid and singular iterator underspecified

    +

    Discussion:

    +

    +The terms valid iterator and singular aren't +properly defined. The fuzziness of those terms became even worse +after the resolution of 208 (including further updates by 278). In +24.2 [iterator.requirements] as of +N2723 +the standard says now: +

    + +
    +

    +5 - These values are called past-the-end values. Values of an iterator i for +which the expression *i is defined are called dereferenceable. The library +never assumes that past-the-end values are dereferenceable. Iterators +can also have singular values that are not associated with any +container. [...] Results of most expressions are undefined for singular +values; the only exceptions are destroying an iterator that holds a +singular value and the assignment of a non-singular value to an iterator +that holds a singular value. [...] Dereferenceable values are always +non-singular. +

    + +

    +10 - An invalid iterator is an iterator that may be singular. +

    +
    + +

    +First, issue 208 intentionally removed the earlier constraint that past-the-end +values are always non-singular. The reason for this was to support null +pointers as past-the-end iterators of e.g. empty sequences. But there +seem to exist different views on what a singular (iterator) value is. E.g. +according to the SGI definition +a null pointer is not a singular value: +

    + +
    +Dereferenceable iterators are always nonsingular, but the converse is +not true. +For example, a null pointer is nonsingular (there are well defined operations +involving null pointers) even thought it is not dereferenceable. +
    +

    -Change container.adaptors, p1: +and proceeds:

    -The container adaptors each take a Container template parameter, and -each constructor takes a Container reference argument. This container is -copied into the Container member of each adaptor. If the container takes -an allocator, then a compatible allocator may be passed in to the -adaptor's constructor. Otherwise, normal copy or move construction is -used for the container argument. [Note: it is not necessary for an -implementation to distinguish between the one-argument constructor that -takes a Container and the one- argument constructor that takes an -allocator_type. Both forms use their argument to construct an instance -of the container. — end note] +An iterator is valid if it is dereferenceable or past-the-end.

    -Change queue.defn, p1: +Even if the standard prefers a different meaning of singular here, the +change was +incomplete, because by restricting feasible expressions of singular +iterators to +destruction and assignment isn't sufficient for a past-the-end +iterator: Of-course +it must still be equality-comparable and in general be a readable value.

    -

    -Add a new section after 23.3.5.1.1 [queue.defn], [queue.cons]: +Second, the standard doesn't clearly say whether a past-the-end value is +a valid iterator or not. E.g. 20.9.8 [specialized.algorithms]/1 says:

    -

    queue constructors [queue.cons]

    - -
    explicit queue(const Container& cont);
    -
    - -
    +In all of the following algorithms, the formal template parameter +ForwardIterator +is required to satisfy the requirements of a forward iterator (24.1.3) +[..], and is +required to have the property that no exceptions are thrown from [..], or +dereference of valid iterators. +

    -Effects: Initializes c with cont. +The standard should make better clear what "singular pointer" and "valid +iterator" means. The fact that the meaning of a valid value +has a core language meaning doesn't imply that for an iterator concept +the term "valid iterator" has the same meaning.

    -
    +

    +Let me add a final example: In X [allocator.concepts.members] of +N2914 +we find: +

    -
    explicit queue(Container&& cont = Container());
    +
    pointer X::allocate(size_type n);
     
    +11 Returns: a pointer to the allocated memory. [Note: if n == 0, the return +value is unspecified. —end note] +

    -
    - -
    queue(queue&& q)

    void X::deallocate(pointer p, size_type n);
     
    +Preconditions: p shall be a non-singular pointer value obtained from a call +to allocate() on this allocator or one that compares equal to it. +
    +

    -Effects: Initializes c with std::move(q.c). +If singular pointer value would include null pointers this make the +preconditions +unclear if the pointer value is a result of allocate(0): Since the return value +is unspecified, it could be a null pointer. Does that mean that programmers +need to check the pointer value for a null value before calling deallocate?

    +[..] Keys in an associative container are immutable. +

    -Effects: Assigns c with std::move(q.c). +According to conventional dictionaries immutable is an unconditional way of +saying that something cannot be changed. So without any further explicit +allowance a user always runs into undefined behavior if (s)he attempts +to modify such a key. IMO this was not the intend of the committee to resolve +103 in that way because the comments suggest an interpretation that +should give any user the freedom to modify the key in an explicit way +provided it would not affect the sort order in that container.

    -Returns: *this. +2) Another observation was that surprisingly no similar 'safety guards' +exists against unintentional key changes for the unordered associative +containers, specifically there is no such requirement as in +23.2.4 [associative.reqmts]/6 that "both iterator and const_iterator are constant +iterators". But the need for such protection against unintentional +changes as well as the constraints in which manner any explicit +changes may be performed are both missing and necessary, because +such changes could potentially change the equivalence of keys that +is measured by the hasher and key_equal.

    +

    +I suggest to fix the unconditional wording involved with "immutable keys" +by at least adding a hint for the reader that users may perform such +changes in an explicit manner and to perform similar wording changes +as 103 did for the ordered associative containers also for the unordered +containers. +

    Discussion:

    -queue has a constructor: +The comparison functions of unique_ptr currently directly delegate to +the underlying comparison functions of unique_ptr<T, D>::pointer. +This is disadvantageous, because this would not guarantee to induce a total +ordering for native pointers and it is hard to define a total order for mixed +types anyway.

    - -
    template <class Alloc>
    -  queue(queue&&, const Alloc&);
    -
    -

    -but it is missing a corresponding constructor: +The currently suggested resolution for shared_ptr comparison as of +1262 uses a normalization strategy: They perform the comparison on +the composite pointer type (5.9 [expr.rel]). This is not +exactly possible for unique_ptr in the presence of user-defined +pointer-like types but the existing definition of std::duration +comparison as of 20.11.3.6 [time.duration.comparisons] via +common_type of both argument types demonstrates a solution of this +problem. The approach can be seen as the general way to define a composite +pointer type and this is the approach which is used for here suggested +wording change.

    - -
    template <class Alloc>
    -  queue(const queue&, const Alloc&);
    -
    -

    -The same is true of priority_queue, and stack. This -"extended copy constructor" is needed for consistency and to ensure that the -user of a container adaptor can always specify the allocator for his adaptor. +For consistency reasons I would have preferred the same normalization strategy +for == and !=, but Howard convinced me not to do so (now).

    Discussion:

    -The footnote for int_type in 21.2.2 [char.traits.typedefs] says that +We've moved 1133 to Tentatively Ready and I'm fine with that.

    -
    -If eof() -can be held in char_type then some iostreams implementations may give -surprising results. -
    -

    -This implies that int_type should be a superset of -char_type. However, the requirements for char16_t and char32_t define -int_type to be equal to int_least16_t and int_least32_t respectively. -int_least16_t is likely to be the same size as char_16_t, which may lead -to surprising behavior, even if eof() is not a valid UTF-16 code unit. -The standard should not prescribe surprising behavior, especially -without saying what it is (it's apparently not undefined, just -surprising). The same applies for 32-bit types. +1133 adds lvalue-references to the splice signatures for list. So now +list can splice from lvalue and rvalue lists (which was the intent of the +original move papers btw). During the discussion of this issue it was mentioned +that if we want to give the same treatment to forward_list, that should be a +separate issue.

    -I personally recommend that behavior be undefined if eof() is a member -of char_type, and another type be chosen for int_type (my personal -favorite has always been a struct {bool eof; char_type c;}). -Alternatively, the exact results of such a situation should be defined, -at least so far that I/O could be conducted on these types as long as -the code units remain valid. Note that the argument that no one streams -char16_t or char32_t is not really valid as it would be perfectly -reasonable to use a basic_stringstream in conjunction with UTF character -types. +This is that separate issue.

    [ -2009-10-28 Ganesh provides two possible resolutions and expresses a preference -for the second: -]

    +

    +Consider the following case where you want to splice elements from one place in +a forward_list to another. Currently this must be coded like so: +

    +

    -
      -
    1. -Replace 21.2.3.2 [char.traits.specializations.char16_t] para 3 with: +This looks pretty shocking to me. I would expect to be able to code instead:

But in the +above example, this simply isn't true. I do care about the value of fl +after the move, and I'm not assigning it a new value. I'm merely permuting its +current value.

    -Spotting a recent thread on the boost lists regarding collapsing -optional representations in optional<optional<T>> instances, I wonder if -we have some of the same issues with make_tuple, and now make_pair? +N2982 +says that containers should have a nested typedef that defines their +reference_type as value_type&; the previous +standard deferred to the allocator to define its +reference_type, and containers simply passed the allocator's +typedef on. This change is a mistake. Allocators should define both a +pointer type and a reference type. That's essential +for their original purpose, which was to make different memory models +transparent. If an allocator defines a pointer type that isn't +compatible with a normal pointer it also has to define a corresponding +reference type. For example (and please forgive a Windows-ism), +if an allocator's pointer is T __far*, then it's +reference has to be T __far&. Otherwise everything +crashes (under the hood, references are pointers and have to have the +same memory access mechanics). Extensions such as this for more general +memory models were explicitly encouraged by C++03, and the allocator's +pointer and reference typedefs were the hooks for such +extensions. Removing the allocator's reference and +const_reference typedefs makes those extensions unimplementable +and breaks existing implementations that rely on those hooks.

    +

    [ +2010-02-25 Alisdair adds: +]

    + + +

    -Essentially, if my generic code in my own library is handed a -reference_wrapper by a user, and my library in turn delegates some logic -to make_pair or make_tuple, then I am going to end up with a pair/tuple -holding a real reference rather than the intended reference wrapper. +vector<bool>::reference is a nested class, and not a typedef. It +should be removed from the list of containers when this change is made.

    -There are two things as a library author I can do at this point: +In general, I am unfcomfortable placing this reference requirement on each +container, as I would prefer to require:

    -
      -
    1. -document my library also has the same reference-wrapper behaviour as -std::make_tuple -
    2. -
    3. -roll my own make_tuple that does not unwrap rereferences, a lost -opportunity to re-use the standard library. -
    4. -
    +
    is_same<Container::reference, Container::iterator::reference>
    +

    -(There may be some metaprogramming approaches my library can use to wrap -the make_tuple call, but all will be significantly more complex than -simply implementing a simplified make_tuple.) +This distinction is important, if we intend to support proxy iterators. The +iterator paper in the pre-Pittsburgh mailing +(N3046) +does not make this proposal, but organises clause 24 in such a way this +will be much easier to specify.

    -Now I don't propose we lose this library facility, I think unwrapping -references will be the common behaviour. However, we might want to -consider adding another overload that does nothing special with -ref-wrappers. Note that we already have a second overload of make_tuple -in the library, called tie. +The changes to clause 20 remain important for all the reasons Pete highlights.

    Discussion:

    -The reason why that breaks is due to the fact that -current core language rules does only allow integral -types as enum-bases, see 7.2 [dcl.enum]/2. +The iter_swap function template appears in the +<algorithm> header, yet its main use is in building further +algorithms, not calling existing ones. The main clients are implementers of data +structures and their iterators, so it seems most appropriate to place the +template in the <iterator> header instead.

    -So, I think that we cannot leave the implementation the -freedom to decide which way they would like to provide -the implementation, because that is easily user-visible -(I don't speak of addresses, but of instantiation errors), -therefore if applied, this should be either specified or -wording must be added that gives a note about this -freedom of implementation. +Note that this is not an issue for implementers of the standard library, as they +rarely use the standard headers directly, designing a more fine-grained set of +headers for their own internal use. This option is not available to customers +of the standard library.

    -Another possible disadvantage seems to me that user-expectations -are easy to disappoint if they see a failure -of the test +Note that we cannot remove iter_swap from <algorithm> +without breaking code, but there is no reason we cannot offer the same +declaration via two standard headers. Alternatively, require +<algorithm> to #include <iterator>, but +introducing the dependency on the iterator adaptors seems un-necessary.

    Discussion:

    -When a library function binds an rvalue reference parameter to an argument, the -library must be able to assume that the bound argument is a temporary, and not -a moved-from lvalue. The reason for this is that the library function must be -able to modify that argument without concern that such modifications will corrupt -the logic of the calling code. For example: +Abstract:

    - -
    template <class T, class A>
    -void
    -vector<T, A>::push_back(value_type&& v)
    -{
    -    // This function should move from v, potentially modifying
    -    //   the object v is bound to.
    -}
    -
    -

    -If v is truly bound to a temporary, then push_back has the -only reference to this temporary in the entire program. Thus any -modifications will be invisible to the rest of the program. +In general, it seems that in a couple of places container behavior is +not described in requirement tables although it is a general behavior.

    -If the client supplies std::move(x) to push_back, the onus is -on the client to ensure that the value of x is no longer important to -the logic of his program after this statement. I.e. the client is making a statement -that push_back may treat x as a temporary. +History:

    -
    -The above statement is the very foundation upon which move semantics is based. -
    -

    -The standard is currently lacking a global statement to this effect. I propose -the following addition to 17.6.3.9 [res.on.arguments]: +Issue 676 added move semantics to unordered containers. +For the added insert functions the Editor requested to put their +semantic description into a requirements table rather than describing +them for each container individually. The text however was taken from +the associative containers, where we also have the semantics for each +container described. Also, 1034 is to some extend +requesting a clarification of the requirement tables and it turned out +that in other places we have the same problem (e.g. we have no general +requirement for type pointer and const_pointer although each container +has them with issue 1306).

      +
        +
      1. +There are little known situations where a swap or move operation may throw an +exception and in some popular domains such functions are required not +to throw. But the library invested already efforts for good reasons to require +"working" container implementations in the presence of throwing move or swap +operations, see e.g. 23.2.4.1 [associative.reqmts.except], 23.2.5.1 [unord.req.except]. +

      8. -

        -The specification for an empty range is actually fairly clear in this -case, but a note wouldn't hurt and would be consistent with proposals -for all_of/none_of algorithms. -

      +

      -Requires: result shall not be in the range -[first,last). +There is a concern that this issue is a misunderstanding of the actual +requirements of a free-standing implementation to support the <thread> +header. In general, a free-standanding implementation will provide an empty +header, specifically so that a user can test for the absence of the +_ _ STDCPP_THREADS _ _ macro. This idiom as used as there is no portable way to test for the lack of a header.

      -
      -
      -

      -This is essentially an "off-by-one" error. +At this point, it was suggested the NB comment is trying to solve the wrong problem, and that _ _ STDCPP_THREADS _ _ should be a pre-defined macro in clause 16 that can be tested before including <thread>. That would remove the need to add additional headers to the free-standanding requirements.

      -

      -When result == last, which -is allowed by this specification, then the range [first, last) -is being move assigned into the range [first, last). The move -(forward) algorithm doesn't allow self move assignment, and neither should -move_backward. So last should be included in the range which -result can not be in. +It is worth noting that Japan requested <ratio> as a free-standing header in their CD1 comments. No-one seemed keen to require clocks of a free-standing implementation though.

      -Conversely, when result == first, which is not allowed by this -specification, then the range [first, last) -is being move assigned into the range [first - (last-first), first). -I.e. into a non-overlapping range. Therefore first should -not be included in the range which result can not be in. +Add the <chrono> and <ratio> headers to the +freestanding requirements.

      -

      -The same argument applies to copy_backward though copy assigning elements -to themselves (result == last) should be harmless (though is disallowed -by copy). +It might be necessary to address scaled-down +expectations of clock support in a freestanding +environment, much like <thread>.

    + +
    +The same problem applies to shared_ptr as well: In both cases there are no +conversions considered because the comparison functions are templates. I agree with +the direction of the proposed resolution, but I believe it would be very surprising +and inconsistent, if given a smart pointer object p, the expression +p == nullptr would be provided, but not p < nullptr and the +other relational operators. According to 5.9 [expr.rel] they are defined +if null pointer values meet other pointer values, even though the result is unspecified +for all except some trivial ones. But null pointer values are nothing special here: +The Library already defines the relational operators for both unique_ptr and +shared_ptr and the outcome of comparing non-null pointer values will be equally +unspecified. If the idea of supporting nullptr_t arguments for relational +operators is not what the committee prefers, I suggest at least to consider to remove +the existing relational operators for both unique_ptr and shared_ptr +for consistency. But that would not be my preferred resolution of this issue. +

    +The number of overloads triple the current number, but I think it is much clearer to +provide them explicitly instead of adding wording that attempts to say that "sufficient overloads" are +provided. The following proposal makes the declarations explicit. +

    +Additionally, the proposal adds the missing declarations for some shared_ptr +comparison functions for consistency. +

    -When iter is an input iterator, the best algorithm -is to append the inserted range to the end of the vector using -push_back. This may involve several reallocations before the input -range is exhausted. After the append, then one can use std::rotate -to place the inserted range into the correct position in the vector. +The precondition to calling declare_no_pointers is that no +bytes in the range "have been previously registered" with +this call. As written, this precondition includes bytes in +ranges, even after they have been explicitly unregistered +with a later call to undeclare_no_pointers.

    + +

    Proposed resolution:

    -But when iter is a random access iterator, the best algorithm -is to first compute the size of the range to be inserted (last - first), -do a buffer reallocation if necessary, scoot existing elements in the vector -down to make the "hole", and then insert the new elements directly to their correct -place. +Update 20.9.11 [util.dynamic.safety] p.9:

    +
    void declare_no_pointers(char *p, size_t n);
    +
    +9 Requires: No bytes in the specified range have been +previously registeredare currently registered with declare_no_pointers(). +If the specified range is in an allocated object, then it must be entirely within a single allocated object. +The object must be live until the corresponding undeclare_no_pointers() call.

    -A major motivation for using move_iterator in the above example is the -expectation that A is cheap to move but expensive to copy. I.e. the -customer is looking for high performance. If we allow vector::insert -to subtract two MI's to get the distance between them, the customer enjoys -substantially better performance, compared to if we say that vector::insert -can not subtract two MI's. +Require that it be a distinct class type.

    -I can find no rationale for not giving this performance boost to our customers. -Therefore I am strongly against restricting move_iterator to the -input_iterator_tag category. +This is not a defect. Threre are a number of places in the standard where +we allow implentations to choose their preferred technique, the most obvious +example being the iterator/const_iterator types of set.

    -I believe that the requirement that forward -iterators have a dereference that returns an lvalue reference to cause unacceptable -pessimization.

    -The terms valid iterator and singular aren't -properly defined. The fuzziness of those terms became even worse -after the resolution of 208 (including further updates by 278). In -24.2 [iterator.requirements] as of -N2723 -the standard says now: -

    - -
    -

    -5 - These values are called past-the-end values. Values of an iterator i for -which the expression *i is defined are called dereferenceable. The library -never assumes that past-the-end values are dereferenceable. Iterators -can also have singular values that are not associated with any -container. [...] Results of most expressions are undefined for singular -values; the only exceptions are destroying an iterator that holds a -singular value and the assignment of a non-singular value to an iterator -that holds a singular value. [...] Dereferenceable values are always -non-singular. +There is no mention of what happens if sz==size(). While +it obviously does nothing I feel a standard needs to say +this explicitely.

    -

    -10 - An invalid iterator is an iterator that may be singular. -

    -
    +

    [ +Resolution proposed in ballot comment +]

    -First, issue 208 intentionally removed the earlier constraint that past-the-end -values are always non-singular. The reason for this was to support null -pointers as past-the-end iterators of e.g. empty sequences. But there -seem to exist different views on what a singular (iterator) value is. E.g. -according to the SGI definition -a null pointer is not a singular value: +Express the semantics as pseudo-code similarly +to the way it is done for the copying overload that +follows (in p3). Include an else clause that does +nothing and covers the sz==size() case.

    -
    -Dereferenceable iterators are always nonsingular, but the converse is -not true. -For example, a null pointer is nonsingular (there are well defined operations -involving null pointers) even thought it is not dereferenceable. -
    +

    [ +2010 Batavia +]

    -and proceeds: +Accepted with a simplified resolution turning one of the < +comparisons into <=.

    -
    -An iterator is valid if it is dereferenceable or past-the-end. -
    -

    -Even if the standard prefers a different meaning of singular here, the -change was -incomplete, because by restricting feasible expressions of singular -iterators to -destruction and assignment isn't sufficient for a past-the-end -iterator: Of-course -it must still be equality-comparable and in general be a readable value. -

    + +

    Proposed resolution:

    -Second, the standard doesn't clearly say whether a past-the-end value is -a valid iterator or not. E.g. 20.8.13 [specialized.algorithms]/1 says: +Ammend [list.capacity] p1:

    -
    -In all of the following algorithms, the formal template parameter -ForwardIterator -is required to satisfy the requirements of a forward iterator (24.1.3) -[..], and is -required to have the property that no exceptions are thrown from [..], or -dereference of valid iterators. +

    void resize(size_type sz);

    +
    +Effects: If sz <= size(), equivalent to list<T>::iterator +it = begin(); advance(it, sz); erase(it, end());. If +size() < sz, appends sz - size() default constructed +value initialized elements to the sequence. +
    -

    -The standard should make better clear what "singular pointer" and "valid -iterator" means. The fact that the meaning of a valid value -has a core language meaning doesn't imply that for an iterator concept -the term "valid iterator" has the same meaning. -

    -

    -Let me add a final example: In X [allocator.concepts.members] of -N2914 -we find: -

    -
    pointer X::allocate(size_type n);
    -
    -

    -1) 103 introduced the term immutable without defining it in a unique manner in -23.2.4 [associative.reqmts]/5: -

    +Each adaptor has a member function called base() which has no definition. + +

    [ +Resolution proposed by ballot comment: +]

    -[..] Keys in an associative container are immutable. +Give it the obvious definition.
    -

    -According to conventional dictionaries immutable is an unconditional way of -saying that something cannot be changed. So without any further explicit -allowance a user always runs into undefined behavior if (s)he attempts -to modify such a key. IMO this was not the intend of the committee to resolve -103 in that way because the comments suggest an interpretation that -should give any user the freedom to modify the key in an explicit way -provided it would not affect the sort order in that container. -

    +

    [ +2010-11-03 Daniel comments and provides a proposed resolution: +]

    -

    -2) Another observation was that surprisingly no similar 'safety guards' -exists against unintentional key changes for the unordered associative -containers, specifically there is no such requirement as in -23.2.4 [associative.reqmts]/6 that "both iterator and const_iterator are constant -iterators". But the need for such protection against unintentional -changes as well as the constraints in which manner any explicit -changes may be performed are both missing and necessary, because -such changes could potentially change the equivalence of keys that -is measured by the hasher and key_equal. -

    -

    -I suggest to fix the unconditional wording involved with "immutable keys" -by at least adding a hint for the reader that users may perform such -changes in an explicit manner and to perform similar wording changes -as 103 did for the ordered associative containers also for the unordered -containers. +

    - -
    -
    void merge(list&& x);

    -
    +Postconditions: If mode & ios_base::out is true, +pbase() points to the first underlying character and epptr() >= +pbase() + s.size() holds; in addition, if mode & ios_base::in +is true, pptr() == pbase() + s.data() holds, otherwise +pptr() == pbase() is true. [...] +

    -Requires: both the list and the argument list shall be sorted -according to operator< or comp. +Firstly, there's a simple mistake: It should be pbase() + s.length(), +not pbase() + s.data().

    -Effects: If (&x == this) does nothing; otherwise, merges the -two sorted ranges [begin(), end()) and [x.begin(), -x.end()). The result is a range in which the elements will be -sorted in non-decreasing order according to the ordering defined by -comp; that is, for every iterator i, in the range other than the -first, the condition comp(*i, *(i - 1)) will be -false. +Secondly, it doesn't match existing implementations. As far as I can tell, +GCC 4.5 does not test for mode & ios_base::in in the second part +of that sentence, but for mode & (ios_base::app | ios_base_ate), +and Visual C++ 9 for mode & ios_base::app. Besides, the wording of +the C++0x draft doesn't make any sense to me. I suggest changing the second part +of the sentence to one of the following: +

    +

    +Replace ios_base::in with (ios_base::ate | ios_base::app), +but this would require Visual C++ to change (replacing only with +ios_base::ate would require GCC to change, and would make +ios_base::app completely useless with stringstreams): +

    +

    +in addition, if mode & (ios_base::ate | ios_base::app) is true, +pptr() == pbase() + s.length() holds, otherwise pptr() == pbase() +is true. +

    +

    +Leave pptr() unspecified if mode & ios_base::app, but not +mode & ios_base::ate (implementations already differ in this case, and it +is always possible to use ios_base::ate to get the effect of appending, so it +is not necessary to require any implementation to change):

    -Remarks: Stable. If (&x != this) the range [x.begin(), x.end()) is -empty after the merge. No elements are copied by this operation. -The behavior is undefined if this->get_allocator() != -x.get_allocator(). +in addition, if mode & ios_base::ate is true, +pptr() == pbase() + s.length() holds, if neither mode & ios_base::ate +nor mode & ios_base::app is true, pptr() == pbase() holds, +otherwise pptr() >= pbase() && pptr() <= pbase() + s.length() +(which of the values in this range is unspecified).

    -Complexity: At most size() + x.size() - 1 applications of comp -if (&x != this); otherwise, no applications of comp are performed. If an -exception is thrown other than by a comparison there are no effects. +Slightly stricter: +

    +

    +in addition, if mode & ios_base::ate is true, +pptr() == pbase() + s.length() holds, if neither +mode & ios_base::ate nor mode & ios_base::app is true, +pptr() == pbase() holds, otherwise pptr() == pbase() || pptr() == pbase() + s.length() +(which of these two values is unspecified). A small table might help to better explain the three cases. +BTW, at the end of the postconditions is this text: "egptr() == eback() + s.size() hold". +Is there a perference for basic_string::length or basic_string::size? It doesn't really +matter, but it looks a bit inconsistent.

    Discussion:

    -unique_lock::lock and friends raise -"resource_deadlock_would_occur -- if the current thread already -owns the mutex (i.e., on entry, owns is true)." 1) -The current thread owning a mutex is not the same as any particular -unique_lock::owns being true. 2) There's no need to -raise this exception for a recursive_mutex if owns is -false. 3) If owns is true, we need to raise some -exception or the unique_lock will lose track of whether to unlock itself -on destruction, but "deadlock" isn't it. For (3), s/bool owns/int -ownership_level/ would fix it. +The proposed resolution looks incomplete to me, there are more normative +usages of the term target sequence in clause 28, e.g. +28.12.2 [re.tokiter] p. 7.

    +

    Proposed resolution:

    +Wording changes are against N3126. They are intended not to conflict with the wording changes +suggested by n3158. +

    + +29.4 [atomics.lockfree] p.8 states: +

    +An atomic store shall only store a value that has +been computed from constants and program input values +by a finite sequence of program evaluations, such +that each evaluation observes the values of variables +as computed by the last prior assignment in the +sequence. +

    -Change 30.5.1 [thread.condition.condvar] p10: +... but 1.9 [intro.execution] p.13 states:

    - -
    -
    void wait(unique_lock<mutex>& lock);
    -
    -
    -

    ...

    +

    +If A is not sequenced before B and B is not +sequenced before A, then A and B are unsequenced. +[ Note: The execution of unsequenced +evaluations can overlap. — end note ] +

    -Effects: +Overlapping executions can make it impossible to +construct the sequence described in 29.4 [atomics.lockfree] p.8. We are not +sure of the intention here and do not offer a suggestion for +change, but note that 29.4 [atomics.lockfree] p.8 is the condition that prevents +out-of-thin-air reads.

    • -If the function exits via an exception, lock.unlock() shall be -called prior to exiting the function scope. -
    • -

    +

    +For an example, suppose we have a function invocation +f(e1,e2). The evaluations of e1 and e2 can overlap. +Suppose that the evaluation of e1 writes y and reads x +whereas the evaluation of e2 reads y and writes x, with +reads-from edges as below (all this is within a single +thread). +

     e1           e2
    +Wrlx y--   --Wrlx x
    +      rf\ /rf
    +         X
    +        / \
    +Rrlx x<-   ->Rrlx y
    +
    +This seems like it should be allowed, but there seems to +be no way to produce a sequence of evaluations with the +property above. +

    +In more detail, here the two evaluations, e1 and e2, are +being executed as the arguments of a function and are +consequently not sequenced-before each other. In +practice we'd expect that they could overlap (as allowed +by 1.9 [intro.execution] p.13), with the two writes taking effect before the two +reads. However, if we have to construct a linear order of +evaluations, as in 29.4 [atomics.lockfree] p.8, then the execution above is not +permited. Is that really intended? + +

    +We believe the intent is that for any atomics there is a distinguished +initialisation write, but that this need not happens-before all the +other operations on that atomic - specifically so that the +initialisation write might be non-atomic and hence give rise to a data +race, and hence undefined behaviour, in examples such as this (from +Hans): +

    [ +Resolution proposed by ballot comment: +]

    +

    -The resolutions to some library defect reports, like 1178 -requires that #includes in each synopsis should be taken -literally. This means that the <bitset> header now -must include <stdexcept>, even though none of the -exceptions are mentioned in the <bitset> header. -

    -

    -Many other classes are required to throw exceptions like -invalid_argument and out_of_range, without explicitly -including <stdexcept> in their synopsis. It is totally -possible for implementations to throw the needed exceptions from utility -functions, whose implementations are not visible in the headers. -

      +
    • in 30.5.1 [thread.condition.condvar] wait with predicate and wait_until with +predicate lack the precondition, postcondition and Error conditions sections. the lack of the precondition +would allow to call pred() without holding the lock. +

    -I'm just reflecting on the now SFINAE-constrained constructors -and assignment operators of error_code and error_condition: -

    -

    -These are the only library components that are pro-actively -announcing that they are using std::enable_if as constraining tool, -which has IMO several disadvantages: -

    - -
      -
    1. -

      -With the availability of template default arguments and -decltype, using enable_if in C++0x standard library, seems -unnecessary restricting implementation freedom. E.g. there -should be not need for a useless specification of a dummy -default function argument, which only confuses the reader. -A more reasonable implementation could e.g. be -

      - -
      template <class ErrorCodeEnum
      - class = typename enable_if<is_error_code_enum<ErrorCodeEnum>::value>::type>
      -error_code(ErrorCodeEnum e);
      -
      - -

      -As currently specified, the function signatures are so unreadable, -that errors quite easily happen, see e.g. 1229. -

      -
    2. - -
    3. -

      -We have a lot of constrained functions in other places, that -now have a standard phrase that is easily understandable: -

      -Remarks: This constructor/function shall participate in overload -resolution if and only if X. -

      -where X describes the condition. Why should these components deviate? -

      -
    4. - -
    5. -

      -If enable_if would not be explicitly specified, the standard library -is much better prepared for the future. It would also be possible, that -libraries with partial support for not-yet-standard-concepts could provide -a much better diagnostic as is possible with enable_if. This again -would allow for experimental concept implementations in the wild, -which as a result would make concept standardization a much more -natural thing, similar to the way as templates were standardized -in C++. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -The library has many algorithms that take a source range represented by -a pair of iterators, and the start of some second sequence given by a -single iterator. Internally, these algorithms will produce undefined -behaviour if the second 'range' is not as large as the input range, but -none of the algorithms spell this out in Requires clauses, and there is -no catch-all wording to cover this in clause 17 or the front matter of -25. -

    - -

    -There was an attempt to provide such wording in paper -n2944 -but this -seems incidental to the focus of the paper, and getting the wording of -this issue right seems substantially more difficult than the simple -approach taken in that paper. Such wording will be removed from an -updated paper, and hopefully tracked via the LWG issues list instead. -

    - -

    -It seems there are several classes of problems here and finding wording -to solve all in one paragraph could be too much. I suspect we need -several overlapping requirements that should cover the desired range of -behaviours. -

    - -

    -Motivating examples: -

    +

    Addresses US-199

    -

    -A good initial example is the swap_ranges algorithm. Here there is a -clear requirement that first2 refers to the start of a valid range at -least as long as the range [first1, last1). n2944 tries to solve this -by positing a hypothetical last2 iterator that is implied by the -signature, and requires distance(first2,last2) < distance(first1,last1). - This mostly works, although I am uncomfortable assuming that last2 is -clearly defined and well known without any description of how to obtain -it (and I have no idea how to write that). -

    - -

    -A second motivating example might be the copy algorithm. Specifically, -let us image a call like: -

    - -
    copy(istream_iterator<int>(is),istream_iterator(),ostream_iterator<int>(os));
    -
    - -

    -In this case, our input iterators are literally simple InputIterators, -and the destination is a simple OutputIterator. In neither case am I -happy referring to std::distance, in fact it is not possible for the -ostream_iterator at all as it does not meet the requirements. However, -any wording we provide must cover both cases. Perhaps we might deduce -last2 == ostream_iterator<int>{}, but that might not always be valid for -user-defined iterator types. I can well imagine an 'infinite range' -that writes to /dev/null and has no meaningful last2. -

    - -

    -The motivating example in n2944 is std::equal, and that seems to fall somewhere between the -two. -

    - -

    -Outlying examples might be partition_copy that takes two output -iterators, and the _n algorithms where a range is specified by a -specific number of iterations, rather than traditional iterator pair. -We should also not accidentally apply inappropriate constraints to -std::rotate which takes a third iterator that is not intended to be a -separate range at all. -

    - -

    -I suspect we want some wording similar to: -

    - -
    -For algorithms that operate on ranges where the end iterator of the -second range is not specified, the second range shall contain at least -as many elements as the first. -
    - -

    -I don't think this quite captures the intent yet though. I am not sure -if 'range' is the right term here rather than sequence. More awkwardly, -I am not convinced we can describe an Output sequence such as produce by -an ostream_iterator as "containing elements", at least not as a -precondition to the call before they have been written. -

    - -

    -The leading comment here is part of the history of std::function, which -was introduced with N1402. -During that time no explicit conversion functions existed, and the -"safe-bool" idiom (based on pointers-to-member) was a popular -technique.

    -was well-formed, just because the built-in operator== for pointer to member -was considered after a single user-defined conversion.

    -The central point of this issue is, that with the replacement of the -safe-bool idiom by explicit conversion to bool the original "hole in the -type system" does no longer exist and therefore the comment is wrong and -the superfluous function definitions should be removed as well. An -explicit conversion function is considered in direct-initialization -situations only, which indirectly contain the so-called "contextual -conversion to bool" (4 [conv]/3). These conversions are not considered for -== or != as defined by the core language. -

    -Note that EqualityComparable implied an equivalence relation. +The standard doesn't say that containers should use abstract pointer +types internally. Both Howard and Pablo agree that this is the intent. +Further, it is necessary for containers to be stored, for example, in +shared memory with an interprocess allocator (the type of scenario that +allocators are intended to support). +

    +

    +In spite of the (possible) agreement on intent, it is necessary to make +this explicit: +

    +

    +An implementations may like to store the result of dereferencing the +pointer (which is a raw reference) as an optimization, but that prevents +the data structure from being put in shared memory, etc. In fact, a +container could store raw references to the allocator, which would be a +little weird but conforming as long as it has one by-value copy. +Furthermore, pointers to locales, ctypes, etc. may be there, which also +prevents the data structure from being put in shared memory, so we +should make explicit that a container does not store raw pointers or +references at all.

Unfortunately it has some redundancy over Table 99, but I did +not remove the specification because of the more general template parameter P - the Table 99 +requirements apply only for an argument identical to value_type.

    2006. emplace broken for associative containers

    Discussion:

    -Issue 1227<bitset> synopsis overspecified makes the observation -that std::bitset, and in fact the whole library, may be implemented -without needing to #include <stdexcept> in any library header. The -proposed resolution removes the #include <stdexcept> directive from -the header. +The current definition of emplace(args) for associative containers as +described in Table 99 is: +

    +

    +Requires: T shall be constructible from args.

    -

    -I'd like to add that the <bitset> header (as well as the rest of -the library) has also been implemented without #including the -<cstddef> header in any library header. In the case of std::bitset, -the template is fully usable (i.e., it may be instantiated and all -its member functions may be used) without ever mentioning size_t. -In addition, just like no library header except for <bitset> -#includes <stdexcept> in its synopsis, no header but <bitset> -#includes <cstddef> either. +Effects: Inserts a T object t constructed with +std::forward<Args>(args)... if and only if there is no element +in the container with key equivalent to the key of t. The bool +component of the returned pair is true if and only if the +insertion takes place, and the iterator component of the pair +points to the element with key equivalent to the key of t. +

    +
    +

    +

    +There is similar language in Table 100 for unordered associative containers. +

    +

    +The first issue is editorial: T should be value_type throughout +both tables. +

    +

    +The major issue is that, if the container is map, multimap, +unordered_map, or unordered_multimap, then the only way to +construct an object of value_type is to supply exactly two arguments +for Key and Value, a pair<Key,Value>, or a +piecewise_construct_t followed by two tuples. The original +emplace() proposal would have allowed you to specify a Key +value followed by any number of constructor arguments for Value. +When we removed the variadic constructor to pair, this ability went +away. I don't think that was deliberate. +

    +

    +Fixing this is non-trivial, I think. I think that emplace() for map +and multimap need several overloads: one for each overloaded constructor in +pair<Key,Value>, and one for the emplace(Key, valueargs...) case. +And it probably needs some SFINAE meta-programming to ensure that the last case +doesn't override any of the other ones. Alternatively, one could say that +there are exactly two cases: emplace(args) where pair<Key,Value> +is constructible from args, and emplace(args) where Key is +constructible form the first arg and Value is constructible from the +rest.

    -

    -Thus I suggest that the #include <cstddef> directive be similarly -removed from the synopsis of <bitset>. +Alternatively, the status quo is to use piecewise_construct_t if you want to +construct an object.

    -During the Santa Cruz meeting it was decided to split off the provision -of the library utility value() proposed in N2979 -from the concrete request of the -UK 300 -comment. -The provision of a new library component that allows the production of -values in unevaluated expressions is considered as important -to realize constrained templates in C++0x where concepts are not -available. -

    -The following proposed resolution is an improvement over that suggested in -N2958, -because the proposed component can now be defined without loss of -general usefulness and any use by user-code will make the program ill-formed. -A possible prototype implementation that satisfies the core language -requirements -can be written as: +This means that while the user is free to specialize, any specialization +would have to be false to avoid violating the second +requirement.

    -Additional to the necessary cleanup of the description of the the -weak_ptr component from 20.8.15.3 [util.smartptr.weak] -described in 1231 it turns out that the currently deleted -comparison functions of weak_ptr are not needed at all: There -is no safe-bool conversion from weak_ptr, and it won't silently -chose a conversion to shared_ptr. -

    +

    Suppose that a particular function is not tagged as constexpr in the standard, +but that, in some particular implementation, it is possible to write it within +the constexpr constraints. If an implementer tags such a function as constexpr, +is that a violation of the standard or is it a conforming extension?

    + +

    There are two questions to consider. First, is this allowed under the +as-if rule? Second, if it does not fall under as-if, is there +(and should there be) any special license granted to implementers +to do this anyway, sort of the way we allow elision of copy constructors +even though it is detectable by users?

    + +

    I believe that this does not fall under "as-if", so implementers +probably don't have that freedom today. I suggest changing the WP +to grant it. Even if we decide otherwise, however, I suggest that +we make it explicit.

    -As of 20.7.15.2.2 [func.wrap.func.mod]/2+ we have the following -prototype description: -

    +According to N3126 ‑ 3.9/9, -
    template<class F, Allocator Alloc>
    -  requires Callable<F, ArgTypes...>
    -    && Convertible<Callable<F, ArgTypes...>::result_type, R>
    -  void assign(F, const Alloc&);

    +

    "Scalar types, trivial class types (Clause 9), arrays of such types +and cv‑qualified versions of these types (3.9.3) are collectively +called trivial types."

    -

    -Two things: First the concept debris needs to be removed, second and -much more importantly, the effects clause is now impossible to satisfy, -because there is no constructor that would match the parameter sequence -(FunctionObject, Allocator) [plus the fact that no -f and no a is part of the signature]. The most -probable candidate is -

    +

    Thus, an array (possibly of unknown bound) can be trivial type, non‑trivial type, +or an array type whose triviality cannot be determined because its element type is incomplete.

    -
    template<class F, class A> function(allocator_arg_t, const A&, F);

    According to N3126 ‑ Table 45, preconditions for std::is_trivial are +defined as follows:

    -and the effects clause needs to be adapted to use this signature. -

    +

    "T shall be a complete type, (possibly cv-qualified) void, +or an array of unknown bound"

    +

    It seems that "an array of unknown bound" should be changed to "an +array of unknown bound of a complete element type". Preconditions for +some other templates (e.g., std::is_trivially_copyable, +std::is_standard_layout, std::is_pod, and std::is_literal_type) should +be changed similarly.

    + +Let r be an rvalue of type 'std::string' and cr be an rvalue of type +'std::string const'. The expression Str("1") is cr. The corresponding +return type for the invocation + +

    + +is 'std::string &&'. The corresponding return type for the invocation -
    static_cast<T>(create<Args>()...)
    +
    +
    Functor().operator()(cr)
     
    +is 'std::string const &&'.

    -for the one-argument case, but static_cast also permits -unwanted conversions such as void* to T* and -Base* to Derived*. -

    +std::result_of<Functor (std::string)>::type is the same type as the +corresponding return type for the invocation Functor().operator()(r), +i.e. it is 'std::string &&'. As a consequence, we have wrong reference +binding in the return statement in f1. +

    +Now lets consider the invocation (2) of the function template f2. When +the template arguments are substituted we have the following equivalent: +

    template <>
    +    std::result_of<F (std::string const &&)>::type
    +        f2<Functor, std::string const>(Functor f, std::string const && params)
    +{
    +    return f(std::forward<const std::string>(params));
    +}
    +
    +std::result_of<F (std::string const &&)>::type is the same type as +'std::string const &&'. This is correct result.

    2018. regex_traits::isctype Returns clause is wrong

    28.7 [re.traits] p12 says:

    -

    -the predicate condition for a template specialization -is_constructible<T, Args> shall be satisfied, if and only -if the following expression CE variable -definition would be well-formed: -

    +

    returns true if f bitwise or’ed with the result of calling +lookup_classname with an iterator pair that designates the character +sequence "w" is not equal to 0 and c == ’_’

    +
    -
      -
    • -

      -if sizeof...(Args) == 0 1, the expression: +

      If the bitmask value corresponding to "w" has a non-zero value (which +it must do) then the bitwise or with any value is also non-zero, and +so isctype('_', f) returns true for any f. Obviously this is wrong, +since '_' is not in every ctype category.

      + +

      There's a similar problem with the following phrases discussing the +"blank" char class.

      -
      static_cast<T>(create<Args>()...)
      -T t;

      -

      -otherwise the expression: + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      Replace the Returns clause with a description in terms of ctype +categories, rather than pseudocode in terms of bitwise operations. +(full replacement wording to follow) +

    C99 added isblank and iswblank to <locale.h> but <locale> does not +provide any equivalent.

    Proposed resolution:

    Add to 22.3.3.1 [classification] synopsis:

    template <class charT> bool isgraph (charT c, const locale& loc);
    +template <class charT> bool isblank (charT c, const locale& loc);

    Discussion:

    +

    +In section 24.2.6 [bidirectional.iterators], +Table 75 gives the return type of *r-- as convertible to T. This is +not consistent with Table 74 which gives the return type of *r++ as +T&. *r++ = t is valid while *r-- = t is invalid. +

    + +

    +In section 24.2.7 [random.access.iterators], +Table 76 gives the return type of a[n] as convertible to T. This is +not consistent with the semantics of *(a + n) which returns T& by +Table 74. *(a + n) = t is valid while a[n] = t is invalid. +

    + +

    +Discussion from the Copenhagen meeting: the first part is +uncontroversial. The second part, operator[] for Random Access +Iterators, requires more thought. There are reasonable arguments on +both sides. Return by value from operator[] enables some potentially +useful iterators, e.g. a random access "iota iterator" (a.k.a +"counting iterator" or "int iterator"). There isn't any obvious way +to do this with return-by-reference, since the reference would be to a +temporary. On the other hand, reverse_iterator takes an +arbitrary Random Access Iterator as template argument, and its +operator[] returns by reference. If we decided that the return type +in Table 76 was correct, we would have to change +reverse_iterator. This change would probably affect user +code. +

    + +

    +History: the contradiction between reverse_iterator and the +Random Access Iterator requirements has been present from an early +stage. In both the STL proposal adopted by the committee +(N0527==94-0140) and the STL technical report (HPL-95-11 (R.1), by +Stepanov and Lee), the Random Access Iterator requirements say that +operator[]'s return value is "convertible to T". In N0527 +reverse_iterator's operator[] returns by value, but in HPL-95-11 +(R.1), and in the STL implementation that HP released to the public, +reverse_iterator's operator[] returns by reference. In 1995, the +standard was amended to reflect the contents of HPL-95-11 (R.1). The +original intent for operator[] is unclear. +

    + +

    +In the long term it may be desirable to add more fine-grained +iterator requirements, so that access method and traversal strategy +can be decoupled. (See "Improved Iterator Categories and +Requirements", N1297 = 01-0011, by Jeremy Siek.) Any decisions +about issue 299 should keep this possibility in mind. +

    + +

    Further discussion: I propose a compromise between John Potter's +resolution, which requires T& as the return type of +a[n], and the current wording, which requires convertible to +T. The compromise is to keep the convertible to T +for the return type of the expression a[n], but to also add +a[n] = t as a valid expression. This compromise "saves" the +common case uses of random access iterators, while at the same time +allowing iterators such as counting iterator and caching file +iterators to remain random access iterators (iterators where the +lifetime of the object returned by operator*() is tied to the +lifetime of the iterator). +

    + +

    +Note that the compromise resolution necessitates a change to +reverse_iterator. It would need to use a proxy to support +a[n] = t. +

    + +

    +Note also there is one kind of mutable random access iterator that +will no longer meet the new requirements. Currently, iterators that +return an r-value from operator[] meet the requirements for a +mutable random access iterartor, even though the expression a[n] = +t will only modify a temporary that goes away. With this proposed +resolution, a[n] = t will be required to have the same +operational semantics as *(a + n) = t. +

    +Why can't we write through the reference returned from operator[] on a +random access iterator? +

    +Recommended solution: +

    Discussion:

    +

    +I've been discussing iterator semantics with Dave Abrahams, and a +surprise has popped up. I don't think this has been discussed before. +

    + +

    +X [iterator.concepts] says that the only operation that can be performed on "singular" +iterator values is to assign a non-singular value to them. (It +doesn't say they can be destroyed, and that's probably a defect.) +Some implementations have taken this to imply that there is no need +to initialize the data member of a reverse_iterator<> in the default +constructor. As a result, code like +

    +
      std::vector<std::reverse_iterator<char*> > v(7);
    +  v.reserve(1000);
    +
    +

    +invokes undefined behavior, because it must default-initialize the +vector elements, and then copy them to other storage. Of course many +other vector operations on these adapters are also left undefined, +and which those are is not reliably deducible from the standard. +

    + +

    +I don't think that 24.1 was meant to make standard-library iterator +types unsafe. Rather, it was meant to restrict what operations may +be performed by functions which take general user- and standard +iterators as arguments, so that raw pointers would qualify as +iterators. However, this is not clear in the text, others have come +to the opposite conclusion. +

    + +

    +One question is whether the standard iterator adaptors have defined +copy semantics. Another is whether they have defined destructor +semantics: is +

    +
      { std::vector<std::reverse_iterator<char*> >  v(7); }
    +
    +

    +undefined too? +

    + +

    +Note this is not a question of whether algorithms are allowed to +rely on copy semantics for arbitrary iterators, just whether the +types we actually supply support those operations. I believe the +resolution must be expressed in terms of the semantics of the +adapter's argument type. It should make clear that, e.g., the +reverse_iterator<T> constructor is actually required to execute +T(), and so copying is defined if the result of T() is copyable. +

    + +

    +Issue 235, which defines reverse_iterator's default +constructor more precisely, has some relevance to this issue. +However, it is not the whole story. +

    + +

    +The issue was whether +

    +
      reverse_iterator() { }
    +
    +

    +is allowed, vs. +

    +
      reverse_iterator() : current() { }
    +
    + +

    +The difference is when T is char*, where the first leaves the member +uninitialized, and possibly equal to an existing pointer value, or +(on some targets) may result in a hardware trap when copied. +

    + +

    +8.5 paragraph 5 seems to make clear that the second is required to +satisfy DR 235, at least for non-class Iterator argument +types. +

    + +

    +But that only takes care of reverse_iterator, and doesn't establish +a policy for all iterators. (The reverse iterator adapter was just +an example.) In particular, does my function +

    +
      template <typename Iterator>
    +    void f() { std::vector<Iterator>  v(7); } 
    +
    +

    +evoke undefined behavior for some conforming iterator definitions? +I think it does, now, because vector<> will destroy those singular +iterator values, and that's explicitly disallowed. +

    + +

    +24.1 shouldn't give blanket permission to copy all singular iterators, +because then pointers wouldn't qualify as iterators. However, it +should allow copying of that subset of singular iterator values that +are default-initialized, and it should explicitly allow destroying any +iterator value, singular or not, default-initialized or not. +

    + +

    Related issues: 407, 1012

    +

    [ +We don't want to require all singular iterators to be copyable, +because that is not the case for pointers. However, default +construction may be a special case. Issue: is it really default +construction we want to talk about, or is it something like value +initialization? We need to check with core to see whether default +constructed pointers are required to be copyable; if not, it would be +wrong to impose so strict a requirement for iterators. +]

    + + +
    +The comments regarding destroying singular iterators have already been +resolved. That just leaves copying (with moving implied). +

    [ +2009-07 Frankfurt +]

    + + +
    +

    +This is related to LWG 1012. +

    +

    +Note that there is a bug in the proposed resolution to LWG 1012. The +change to [reverse.iter.con] should be modified so that the word +"default" in the second sentence of the Effects clause is replaced by +"value." +

    +

    +We believe that the proposed fix to LWG 1012 (now corrected) is +sufficient to solve the problem for reverse_iterator. However, Alisdair +pointed out that LWG 1012 does not solve the general problem for authors +of iterator adaptors. +

    +

    +There are some problems with the proposed resolution. The phrase "safely +copyable" is not a term of art. Also, it mentions a +DefaultConstructible? concept. +

    [ +2010 Pittsburgh: Moved to NAD Editorial. Rationale added below. +]

    + + + + +

    Rationale:

    +

    +Solved by +N3066. +

    + + +

    Proposed resolution:

    +

    +Add a new paragrpah to Iterator concepts 24.2 [iterator.requirements] after para 5 (the one describing +singular iterators) +

    +
    +

    +Just as a regular pointer to an array guarantees that there is a pointer +value pointing past the last element of the array, so for any iterator +type there is an iterator value that points past the last element of a +corresponding container. These values are called past-the-end values. +Values of an iterator i for which the expression *i is defined are called +dereferenceable. The library never assumes that past-the-end values are +dereferenceable. Iterators can also have singular values that are not +associated with any container. [Example: After the declaration of an +uninitialized pointer x (as with int* x;), x must always be assumed to +have a singular value of a pointer. — end example] Results of most +expressions are undefined for singular values; the only exceptions are +destroying an iterator that holds a singular value and the assignment of +a non-singular value to an iterator that holds a singular value. In this +case the singular value is overwritten the same way as any other value. +Dereferenceable values are always non-singular. +

    +

    +After value-initialization, any iterator that satisfies the +DefaultConstructible requirements ([defaultconstructible]) shall not introduce undefined behaviour +when used as the +source of a copy or move operation, even if it would +otherwise be singular. [Note: This guarantee is not offered for +default-initialization (8.5 [dcl.init]), although the distinction only +matters for types with trivial default constructors such as pointers. — +end note] +

    Clause 20.2.2 [allocator.requirements] paragraph 4 says that implementations - are permitted to supply containers that are unable to cope with - allocator instances and that container implementations may assume - that all instances of an allocator type compare equal.

    - -

    1. This operation is illegal. Perhaps we could say that an - implementation is required to check and to throw an exception, or - perhaps we could say it's undefined behavior.

    -

    2. The operation performs a slow swap (i.e. using three - invocations of operator=, leaving each allocator with its - original container. This would be an O(N) operation.

    -

    3. The operation swaps both the vectors' contents and their - allocators. This would be an O(1) operation. That is:

    -
    -
        my_alloc a1(...);
    -    my_alloc a2(...);

    +What requirements does the standard place on equality comparisons between +iterators that refer to elements of different containers. For example, if +v1 and v2 are empty vectors, is v1.end() == v2.end() allowed to yield true? +Is it allowed to throw an exception? +

    + +

    +The standard appears to be silent on both questions. +

    +

    [Sydney: The intention is that comparing two iterators from +different containers is undefined, but it's not clear if we say that, +or even whether it's something we should be saying in clause 23 or in +clause 24. Intuitively we might want to say that equality is defined +only if one iterator is reachable from another, but figuring out how +to say it in any sensible way is a bit tricky: reachability is defined +in terms of equality, so we can't also define equality in terms of +reachability. +]

    +

    +The note on 24.1.2 Output iterators insufficiently limits what can be +performed on output iterators. While it requires that each iterator is +progressed through only once and that each iterator is written to only +once, it does not require the following things:

    + +

    Note: Here it is assumed that x is an output iterator of type X which +has not yet been assigned to.

    + +

    a) That each value of the output iterator is written to: +The standard allows: +++x; ++x; ++x; +

    + +

    +b) That assignments to the output iterator are made in order +X a(x); ++a; *a=1; *x=2; is allowed +

    + +

    +c) Chains of output iterators cannot be constructed: +X a(x); ++a; X b(a); ++b; X c(b); ++c; is allowed, and under the current +wording (I believe) x,a,b,c could be written to in any order. +

    + +

    I do not believe this was the intension of the standard?

    Rationale:

    + +

    -N2023 -was discussed in Portland and the consensus was that there appears to be -no need for either change proposed in the paper. The consensus opinion -was that since the iterator could serve as its own proxy, there appears -to be no need for the change. In general, "converts to" is undesirable -because it interferes with template matching. +Signature of iterator erase(const_iterator) should be changed to void +erase(const_iterator). If this is not viable an acceptable tradeoff +could be to make the return type of erase(const_iterator) +implementation defined.

    -Post Toronto: There does not at this time appear to be consensus with the Portland consensus. +The standard should allow implementations of unordered associative +containers using either singly or doubly linked lists. +N2023 +proves that singly-linked lists implementations cannot provide the required +complexity for iterator erase(const_iterator). Thus, some action is +needed to allow both implementations. +

    + +

    +Option 1: Changing the required complexity from O(1) to O(log n). This option +merely masks a design flaw. Users are forcefully penalized for what they don't +use (the returned iterator). Besides, they would have to learn about the +pathological (yet very real) situations where using erase can lead to +quadratic performance. Two out of these three objections remain even if some +alternative member function like void quick_erase(const_iterator) is +thrown in to the interface.

    +

    +Some objections have been expressed to changing return type of erase to +void, arguing that it would break current existing practice with +standard library implementations based on doubly-linked lists, where the problem +does not occur. However implementations based on drafts should not block the +resolution of a serious design issue, more so when the issue will hurt future +users of C++, as it's happening already. +

    + +

    +Option 2: Make erase return type implementation defined. There's +a possible tradeoff with the objectors above consisting in changing the +signature to implementation defined erase(iterator), so that +returning an iterator is indeed a valid extension. To this it can be argued that +this would make implementantions returning an iterator look as somehow promoting +proprietary extensions: this in my opinion is not a valid argument since those +implementations are already extending the required interface by +providing bidirectional iterators (just forward iterators are required). +

    +
    +

    [ -Bellevue: +2010 Rapperswil: ]

    -The Bellevue review of this issue reached consensus with the Portland -consensus, in contravention of the Toronto non-consensus. Common -implementations have the iterator readily available, and most common -uses depend on the iterator being returned. +

    +The issue was lengthy discussed and implementation experience was demonstrated that a non-void return +type is implementable for both single-linked and double-linked lists without loss of efficiency. +

    + +

    +By a 12-1-1-0 poll voted to keep the return type of erase as iterator instead of +void and a second 0-0-3-10 poll rejected the additional proposal to add a +quick_erase returning void, thus LWG decided for NAD. +

    Discussion:

    +

    +The general requirements for BinaryPredicate (in 25 [algorithms]/8) contradict the implied specific requirements for +some functions. In particular, it says that: +

    + +

    +[...] if an algorithm takes BinaryPredicate binary_pred +as its argument and first1 and first2 as its +iterator arguments, it should work correctly in the construct if +(binary_pred (*first1 , *first2 )){...}. +BinaryPredicate always takes the first iterator type as its +first argument, that is, in those cases when T value is +part of the signature, it should work correctly in the context of if +(binary_pred (*first1 , value)){...}. +

    + +

    +In the description of upper_bound (25.4.3.2 [upper.bound]/2), however, the use is described as +"!comp(value, e)", where e is an +element of the sequence (a result of dereferencing +*first). +

    + +

    +In the description of lexicographical_compare, we have both +"*first1 < *first2" and "*first2 +< *first1" (which presumably implies "comp( +*first1, *first2 )" and "comp( *first2, +*first1 )". +

    + +

    +Logically, the BinaryPredicate is used as an ordering +relationship, with the semantics of "less than". Depending on the +function, it may be used to determine equality, or any of the inequality +relationships; doing this requires being able to use it with either +parameter first. I would thus suggest that the requirement be: +

    + +

    +Alternatively, one could specify an order for each function. IMHO, this +would be more work for the committee, more work for the implementors, +and of no real advantage for the user: some functions, such as +lexicographical_compare or equal_range, will still require both +functions, and it seems like a much easier rule to teach that both +functions are always required, rather than to have a complicated list of +when you only need one, and which one. +

    +Move to Review. The small problem with the "iterator type" +will be fixed. The cited functions (lower_bound, uppwer_bound, +equal_range) don't actually use BinaryPredicate , and where it is used, +it is consistent with [algorithm]/8, so the main complaint of the issue +is moot. +

    +Solved by +N2759. +

    +
    + +

    +2010-01-31: The draft standard is well specified as is, and this specification +is desired. Issues 556 and 870 solve the remaining +unclearness regarding the meaning of BinaryPredicate. +

    + + + +

    Proposed resolution:

    +

    Change 25 [algorithms] paragraph 8 as indicated:

    + +
    + +

    +8 The BinaryPredicate parameter is used whenever an algorithm expects a +function object that when applied to the result of dereferencing two +corresponding iterators or to dereferencing an iterator and type T when +T is part of the signature returns a value testable as true. +BinaryPredicate always takes the first iterator value_type as +one of its arguments; which argument is unspecified. In other words, +if If an algorithm takes BinaryPredicate binary_pred +as its argument and first1 and first2 as its iterator +arguments, it should work correctly both in the construct if +(binary_pred(*first1, *first2)){...} and if (binary_pred (*first2, +*first1)){...}. BinaryPredicate always takes the first +iterator type as its first argument, that is, in In those cases +when T value is part of the signature, it should work correctly in the +context of if (binary_pred(*first1, value)){...} and of if +(binary_pred (value, *first1)){...}. binary_pred shall +not apply any non-constant function through the dereferenced iterators. +[Note: if the two types are not identical, and neither is +convertable to the other, this may require that the BinaryPredicate be +a functional object with two overloaded operator()() functions. +— end note] +

    Discussion:

    -

    -The table of allocator requirements in 20.2.2 [allocator.requirements] describes -allocator::address as: -

    -
    a.address(r)
    -a.address(s)
    -
    -

    -where r and s are described as: -

    -

    -a value of type X::reference obtained by the expression *p. -

    - -

    -and p is -

    - -

    -a value of type X::pointer, obtained by calling a1.allocate, -where a1 == a -

    - -

    -This all implies that to get the address of some value of type T that -value must have been allocated by this allocator or a copy of it. -

    - -

    -However sometimes container code needs to compare the address of an external value of -type T with an internal value. For example list::remove(const T& t) -may want to compare the address of the external value t with that of a value -stored within the list. Similarly vector or deque insert may -want to make similar comparisons (to check for self-referencing calls). -

    - -

    -Mandating that allocator::address can only be called for values which the -allocator allocated seems overly restrictive. -

    -The header <functional> synopsis in 20.7 [function.objects] -contains the following two free comparison operator templates -for the function class template -

    - -
    template<class Function1, class Function2>
    -void operator==(const function<Function1>&, const function<Function2>&);
    -template<class Function1, class Function2>
    -void operator!=(const function<Function1>&, const function<Function2>&);
    -
    - -

    -which are nowhere described. I assume that they are relicts before the -corresponding two private and undefined member templates in the function -template (see 20.7.15.2 [func.wrap.func] and [func.wrap.func.undef]) have been introduced. The original free -function templates should be removed, because using an undefined entity -would lead to an ODR violation of the user. -

    -The most recent state of -N2241 -as well as the current draft -N2284 -(section 19.5 [syserr], p.2) proposes a -new -enumeration type posix_errno immediatly in the namespace std. One of -the enumerators has the name invalid_argument, or fully qualified: -std::invalid_argument. This name clashes with the exception type -std::invalid_argument, see 19.2 [std.exceptions]/p.3. This clash makes -e.g. the following snippet invalid: -

    - -
    #include <system_error>
    -#include <stdexcept>
    -
    -void foo() { throw std::invalid_argument("Don't call us - we call you!"); }
    -
    - -

    -I propose that this enumeration type (and probably the remaining parts -of -<system_error> as well) should be moved into one additional inner -namespace, e.g. sys or system to reduce foreseeable future clashes -due -to the great number of members that std::posix_errno already contains -(Btw.: Why has the already proposed std::sys sub-namespace from -N2066 -been rejected?). A further clash candidate seems to be -std::protocol_error -(a reasonable name for an exception related to a std network library, -I guess). -

    - -

    -Another possible resolution would rely on the proposed strongly typed -enums, -as described in N2213. -But maybe the forbidden implicit conversion to integral types would -make -these enumerators less attractive in this special case? -

    +Two overloads of regex_replace() are currently provided: +

    +    class traits, class charT> 
    +  OutputIterator

    +                const basic_regex<charT, traits>& e, 
    +                const basic_string<charT>& fmt, 
    +                regex_constants::match_flag_type flags = 
    +                  regex_constants::match_default);
    + 
    +template <class traits, class charT> 
    +  basic_string<charT> 
    +  regex_replace(const basic_string<charT>& s, 
    +                const basic_regex<charT, traits>& e, 
    +                const basic_string<charT>& fmt, 
    +                regex_constants::match_flag_type flags = 
    +                  regex_constants::match_default);
    +
    + +
      +
    1. Overloads taking const charT * are provided for regex_match() and +regex_search(), but not regex_replace(). This is inconsistent.
    2. +
    3. +

      The absence of const charT * overloads prevents ordinary-looking code from compiling, such as:

      + +
      const string s("kitten");
      +const regex r("en");
      +cout << regex_replace(s, r, "y") << endl;
      +
      + +

      +The compiler error message will be something like "could not deduce +template argument for 'const std::basic_string<_Elem> &' from 'const +char[1]'". +

      + +

      +Users expect that anything taking a basic_string<charT> can also take a +const charT *. In their own code, when they write a function taking +std::string (or std::wstring), they can pass a const char * (or const +wchar_t *), thanks to basic_string's implicit constructor. Because the +regex algorithms are templated on charT, they can't rely on +basic_string's implicit constructor (as the compiler error message +indicates, template argument deduction fails first). +

      + +

      +If a user figures out what the compiler error message means, workarounds +are available - but they are all verbose. Explicit template arguments +could be given to regex_replace(), allowing basic_string's implicit +constructor to be invoked - but charT is the last template argument, not +the first, so this would be extremely verbose. Therefore, constructing +a basic_string from each C string is the simplest workaround. +

        Discussion:

        -

        -The draft C++0x thread library requires that the time points of type -system_time and returned by get_system_time() represent Coordinated -Universal Time (UTC) (section [datetime.system]). This can lead to -surprising behavior when a library user performs a duration-based wait, -such as condition_variable::timed_wait(). A complete explanation of the -problem may be found in the -Rationale for the Monotonic Clock -section in POSIX, but in summary: -

        - -
          -
        • -Operations such as condition_variable::timed_wait() (and its POSIX -equivalent, pthread_cond_timedwait()) are specified using absolute times -to address the problem of spurious wakeups. -
        • - -
        • -The typical use of the timed wait operations is to perform a relative -wait. This may be achieved by first calculating an absolute time as the -sum of the current time and the desired duration. In fact, the C++0x -thread library includes duration-based overloads of -condition_variable::timed_wait() that behave as if by calling the -corresponding absolute time overload with a time point value of -get_system_time() + rel_time. -
        • - -
        • -A UTC clock may be affected by changes to the system time, such as -synchronization with an external source, leap seconds, or manual changes -to the clock. -
        • - -
        • -Should the clock change during a timed wait operation, the actual -duration of the wait will not be the expected length. For example, a -user may intend a timed wait of one second duration but, due to an -adjustment of the system clock backwards by a minute, the wait instead -takes 61 seconds. -
        • -
        - -

        -POSIX solves the problem by introducing a new monotonic clock, which is -unaffected by changes to the system time. When a condition variable is -initialized, the user may specify whether the monotonic clock is to be -used. (It is worth noting that on POSIX systems it is not possible to -use condition_variable::native_handle() to access this facility, since -the desired clock type must be specified during construction of the -condition variable object.) -

        - -

        -In the context of the C++0x thread library, there are added dimensions -to the problem due to the need to support platforms other than POSIX: -

        - -
          -
        • -Some environments (such as embedded systems) do not have a UTC clock, but do have a monotonic clock. -
        • - -
        • -Some environments do not have a monotonic clock, but do have a UTC clock. -
        • - -
        • -The Microsoft Windows API's synchronization functions use relative -timeouts based on an implied monotonic clock. A program that switches -from the Windows API to the C++0x thread library will now find itself -susceptible to clock changes. -
        • -
        - -

        -One possible minimal solution: -

        - -
          -
        • -Strike normative references to UTC and an epoch based on 1970-01-01. -
        • - -
        • -Make the semantics of system_time and get_system_time() -implementation-defined (i.e standard library implementors may choose the -appropriate underlying clock based on the capabilities of the target -platform). -
        • - -
        • -Add a non-normative note encouraging use of a monotonic clock. -
        • - -
        • -Remove system_time::seconds_since_epoch(). -
        • - -
        • -Change the constructor explicit system_time(time_t secs, nanoseconds ns -= 0) to explicit system_time(nanoseconds ns). -

        #include <vector>
        +#include <iostream>
        +
        +class Toto
        +{
        +public:
        +    Toto() {}
        +    explicit Toto( Toto const& ) {}
        +} ;
        +
        +int
        +main()
        +{
        +    std::vector< Toto > v( 10 ) ;
        +    return 0 ;
        +}
        +
        +

        -Suggested resolution: Specialize identity<void> so as not to require -the member function's presence. +Is this change intentional? (And if so, what is the +justification? I wouldn't call such code good, but I don't see +any reason to break it unless we get something else in return.)

    Discussion:

    +

    -I was looking at the latest draft on forward_list. Especially the splice methods. +Detlef correctly argues that condition_variable::wait_until could +return "too late" in the context of clocks being adjusted during the wait. I agree +with his logic. But I disagree that this makes this interface unimplementable +on POSIX.

    +

    -The first one splices a whole list after a given iterator in this. The name is splice_after. -I think in 23.3.3.5 [forwardlist.ops] paragraph 40 -change: +The POSIX spec also does not guarantee that pthread_cond_timedwait does +not return "too late" when clocks are readjusted during the wait. Indeed, the +POSIX specification lacks any requirements at all concerning how soon +pthread_cond_timedwait returns after a time out. This is evidently a +QOI issue by the POSIX standard. Here is a quote of the most relevant normative +text concerning pthread_cond_timedwait found +here.

    +
    -Effect: Insert the contents of x before after position, ... +The pthread_cond_timedwait() function shall be equivalent to +pthread_cond_wait(), except that an error is returned if the absolute +time specified by abstime passes (that is, system time equals or exceeds +abstime) before the condition cond is signaled or broadcasted, or if the +absolute time specified by abstime has already been passed at the time +of the call.

    -A deeper issue involves the complexity. forward_list has no size and we -don't know when we've reached the end except to walk up to it. To -splice we would need to hook the end of the source list to the item -after position in this list. This would involve walking length of the -source list until we got to the last dereference-able element in source. -There's no way we could do this in O(1) unless we stored a bogus end in -forward_list. +I.e. the POSIX specification speaks of the error code returned in case of a time +out, but not on the timeliness of that return.

    +

    -OTOH, the last version of splice_after with iterator ranges we could do -in O(1) because we know how to hook the end of the source range to ... +Might this simply be an oversight, or minor defect in the POSIX specification?

    +

    -Unless I'm misconceiving the whole thing. Which is possible. I'll look at it again. +I do not believe so. This same section goes on to say in non-normative +text:

    + +
    +For cases when the system clock is advanced discontinuously by an +operator, it is expected that implementations process any timed wait +expiring at an intervening time as if that time had actually occurred. +
    +

    -I'm pretty sure about the first part though. +Here is non-normative wording encouraging the implementation to ignore an advancing +underlying clock and subsequently causing an early (spurious) return. There is +no wording at all which addresses Detlef's example of a "late return". With +pthread_cond_timedwait this would be caused by setting the system clock +backwards. It seems reasonable to assume, based on the wording that is already +in the POSIX spec, that again, the discontinuously changed clock would be ignored +by pthread_cond_timedwait.

    -

    [ -San Francisco: -]

    +

    +A noteworthy difference between pthread_cond_timedwait and +condition_variable::wait_until is that the POSIX spec appears to +say that ETIMEDOUT should be returned if pthread_cond_timedwait +returns because of timeout signal, whether or not the system clock was discontinuously +advanced during the wait. In contrast condition_variable::wait_until +always returns: +

    +
    Clock::now() < abs_time
    +
    -

    -This issue is more complicated than it looks. +That is, the C++ spec requires that the clock be rechecked (detecting discontinuous +adjustments during the wait) at the time of return. condition_variable::wait_until +may indeed return early or late. But regardless it will return a value +reflecting timeout status at the time of return (even if clocks have been adjusted). +Of course the clock may be adjusted after the return value is computed but before the client has +a chance to read the result of the return. Thus there are no iron-clad guarantees +here.

    +

    -paragraph 47: replace each (first, last) with (first, last] +condition_variable::wait_until (and pthread_cond_timedwait) +is little more than a convenience function for making sure +condition_variable::wait doesn't hang for an unreasonable amount of +time (where the client gets to define "unreasonable"). I do not think it +is in anyone's interest to try to make it into anything more than that.

    +

    -add a statement after paragraph 48 that complexity is O(1) +I maintain that this is a useful and flexible specification in the spirit of +C++, and is implementable on POSIX. The implementation technique described above +is a reasonable approach. There may also be higher quality approaches. This +specification, like the POSIX specification, gives a wide latitude for QOI.

    +

    -remove the complexity statement from the first overload of splice_after +I continue to recommend NAD, but would not object to a clarifying note regarding +the behavior of condition_variable::wait_until. At the moment, I do +not have good wording for such a note, but welcome suggestions.

    Proposed resolution:

    -In 23.3.3.5 [forwardlist.ops] paragraph 40 -change: +I also disagree with many of Detlef's points in the rationale. In a system with +hard latency limits there is likely to be a monotonic clock, otherwise you have +no way of measuring against these latency limits since the system_clock +may change arbitrarily. In such systems, you want to be able to use +wait_for, or wait_until with a monotonic clock.

    -
    -Effect: Insert the contents of x before after position, ... -
    +

    +I disagree that the wait_* functions cannot be implemented correctly on +top of POSIX: I have done so. The only guarantee in the working draft is that +when the function returns certain properties are true; there is no guarantee +that the function will return immediately that the properties are true. +My resolution to issue 887 makes this clear.

    +On systems without a monotonic clock, you cannot measure the problem since the +system clock can change arbitrarily so any timing calculations you make may be +wrong due to clock changes. +

    +

    +On systems with a monotonic clock, you can choose to use it for your condition +variables. If you are waiting against a system_clock::time_point then +you can check the clock when waking, and either return as a timeout or spurious +wake depending on whether system_clock::now() is before or after the +specified time_point. +

    +

    +Windows does provide condition variables from Vista onwards. I choose +not to use them, but they are there. If people are concerned about +implementation difficulty, the Boost implementation can be used for most +purposes; the Boost license is pretty liberal in that regard. +

    Discussion:

    +

    +I was looking at the latest draft on forward_list. Especially the splice methods. +

    +

    +The first one splices a whole list after a given iterator in this. The name is splice_after. +I think in 23.3.3.5 [forwardlist.ops] paragraph 40 +change: +

    +
    +Effect: Insert the contents of x before after position, ... +
    + +

    +A deeper issue involves the complexity. forward_list has no size and we +don't know when we've reached the end except to walk up to it. To +splice we would need to hook the end of the source list to the item +after position in this list. This would involve walking length of the +source list until we got to the last dereference-able element in source. +There's no way we could do this in O(1) unless we stored a bogus end in +forward_list. +

    +

    +OTOH, the last version of splice_after with iterator ranges we could do +in O(1) because we know how to hook the end of the source range to ... +

    +

    +Unless I'm misconceiving the whole thing. Which is possible. I'll look at it again. +

    +

    +I'm pretty sure about the first part though. +

      +

      Addresses UK 150

      + +

      +The description of the effect of operator= in the MoveAssignable +concept, given in paragraph 7 is: +

      + +
      result_type  T::operator=(T&&  rv);  // inherited from HasAssign<T, T&&>
      +
      + +
      +Postconditions: the constructed T object is equivalent to the value of +rv before the assignment. [Note: there is no +requirement on the value of rv after the assignment. --end note] +
      +
      + +

      +The sentence contains a typo (what is the "constructed T object"?) +probably due to a cut&paste from MoveConstructible. Moreover, the +discussion of LWG issue 675 shows that the postcondition is too generic +and might not reflect the user expectations. An implementation of the +move assignment that just calls swap() would always fulfill the +postcondition as stated, but might have surprising side-effects in case +the source rvalue refers to an object that is not going to be +immediately destroyed. See LWG issue 900 for another example. Due to +the sometimes intangible nature of the "user expectation", it seems +difficult to have precise normative wording that could cover all cases +without introducing unnecessary restrictions. However a non-normative +clarification could be a very helpful warning sign that swapping is not +always the correct thing to do. +

      +

      +Issue 910 is exactly the reason BSI advanced the Editorial comment UK-150. +

      +

      +The post-conditions after assignment are at a minimum that the object +referenced by rv must be safely destructible, and the transaction should not +leak resources. Ideally it should be possible to simply assign rv a new +valid state after the call without invoking undefined behaviour, but any +other use of the referenced object would depend upon additional guarantees +made by that type. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-09 Howard adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +The intent of the rvalue reference work is that the moved from rv is +a valid object. Not one in a singular state. If, for example, the moved from +object is a vector, one should be able to do anything on that moved-from +vector that you can do with any other vector. However you would +first have to query it to find out what its current state is. E.g. it might have capacity, +it might not. It might have a non-zero size, it might not. But regardless, +you can push_back on to it if you want. +

      + +

      +That being said, most standard code is now conceptized. That is, the concepts +list the only operations that can be done with templated types - whether or not +the values have been moved from. +

      + +

      +Here is user-written code which must be allowed to be legal: +

      +
      #include <vector>
      +#include <cstdio>
      +
      +template <class Allocator>
      +void
      +inspect(std::vector<double, Allocator>&& v)
      +{
      +    std::vector<double, Allocator> result(move(v));
      +    std::printf("moved from vector has %u size and %u capacity\n", v.size(), v.capacity());
      +    std::printf("The contents of the vector are:\n");
      +    typedef typename std::vector<double, Allocator>::iterator I;
      +    for (I i = v.begin(), e = v.end(); i != e; ++i)
      +        printf("%f\n", *i);
      +}
      +
      +int main()
      +{
      +    std::vector<double> v1(100, 5.5);
      +    inspect(move(v1));
      +}
      +
      + +

      +The above program does not treat the moved-from vector as singular. It +only treats it as a vector with an unknown value. +

      +

      +I believe the current proposed wording is consistent with my view on this. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2010-01-23 Moved to Tentatively NAD Concepts after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib. +Rationale added below. +]

      + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      +The current MoveAssignable requirements say everything that can be said +in general. Each std-defined type has a more detailed specification of move +assignment. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +In [concept.copymove], replace the postcondition in paragraph 7 with: +

      + +
      +Postconditions: *this is equivalent to the value of rv before the +assignment. [Note: there is no requirement on the value of rv after the +assignment, but the +effect should be unsurprising to the user even in case rv is not +immediately destroyed. This may require that resources previously owned +by *this are released instead of transferred to rv. -- end note] +

          Addresses UK 270

          + +

          +Regarding the std::distance - function, 24.4.4 [iterator.operations] +/ 4 says: +

          +
          +Returns the +number of increments or decrements needed to get from first to last. +
          +

          +This sentence is completely silent about the sign of the return value. +24.4.4 [iterator.operations] / 1 gives more information about the +underlying operations, but +again no inferences about the sign can be made. +Strictly speaking, that is taking that sentence literally, I think this +sentence even implies a positive return value in all cases, as the +number of increments or decrements is clearly a ratio scale variable, +with a natural zero bound. +

          +

          +Practically speaking, my implementations did what common sense and +knowledge based on pointer arithmetic forecasts, namely a positive sign +for increments (that is, going from first to last by operator++), and a +negative sign for decrements (going from first to last by operator--). +

          +

          +Here are my two questions: +

          +

          +First, is that paragraph supposed to be interpreted in the way what I +called 'common sense', that is negative sign for decrements ? I am +fairly sure that's the supposed behavior, but a double-check here in +this group can't hurt. +

          +

          +Second, is the present wording (2003 standard version - no idea about +the draft for the upcoming standard) worth an edit to make it a bit more +sensible, to mention the sign of the return value explicitly ? +

          + +

          [ +Daniel adds: +]

          + + +
          +

          +My first thought was that resolution 204 would already cover the +issue report, but it seems that current normative wording is in +contradiction to that resolution: +

          + +

          +Referring to +N2798, +24.4.4 [iterator.operations]/ p.4 says: +

          + +
          +Effects: Returns the number of increments or decrements needed to get +from first to last. +
          + +

          +IMO the part " or decrements" is in contradiction to p. 5 which says +

          + +
          +Requires: last shall be reachable from first. +
          + +

          +because "reachable" is defined in X [iterator.concepts]/7 as +

          + +
          +An iterator j is called reachable from an iterator i if and only if +there is a finite +sequence of applications of the expression ++i that makes i == j.[..] +
          + +

          +Here is wording that would be consistent with this definition of "reachable": +

          + +

          +Change 24.4.4 [iterator.operations] p4 as follows: +

          + +
          +Effects: Returns the number of increments or decrements +needed to get from first to last. +
          + +

          +
            + +
          1. +There is a minor problem with the exposition-only declaration of the private +member deref_tmp which is modified in a const member function (and the +same problem occurs in the specification of operator*). The fix is to +make it a mutable member. +
          2. + +
          3. +

            +The more severe problem is that the resolution for some reasons +does not explain in the rationale why it was decided to differ from +the suggested fix (using deref_tmp instead of tmp) in the +[ 2009-10 Santa Cruz] comment: +

            + +
            this->deref_tmp = current;
            +--this->deref_tmp;
            +return this->deref_tmp;
            +
            + +

            +combined with the change of +

            + +
            typedef typename iterator_traits<Iterator>::pointer pointer;
            +
            + +

            +to +

            + +
            typedef Iterator pointer;
            +
            + +

            +The problem of the agreed on wording is that the following rather +typical example, that compiled with the wording before 1052 had +been applied, won't compile anymore: +

            + +
            #include <iterator>
            +#include <utility>
            +
            +int main() {
            +  typedef std::pair<int, double> P;
            +  P op;
            +  std::reverse_iterator<P*> ri(&op + 1);
            +  ri->first; // Error
            +}
            +
            + +

            +Comeau online returns (if a correspondingly changed +reverse_iterator is used): +

            + +
            "error: expression must have class type
            +     return deref_tmp.operator->();
            +            ^
            +         detected during instantiation of "Iterator
            +                   reverse_iterator<Iterator>::operator->() const [with
            +                   Iterator=std::pair<int, double> *]""
            +
            + +

            +Thus the change will break valid, existing code based +on std::reverse_iterator. +

            + +
          4. + +
          + +

          +IMO the suggestion proposed in the comment is a necessary fix, which harmonizes +with the similar specification of std::move_iterator and properly +reflects the recursive nature of the evaluation of operator-> +overloads. +

          Rationale:

          -It would be useful to be able to determine the underlying -type of an arbitrary enumeration type. This would allow -safe casting to an integral type (especially needed for -scoped enums, which do not promote), and would allow -use of numeric_limits. In general it makes generic -programming with enumerations easier. +The issue suggests a more refined concept should be used if we want to +require streaming, to separate concerns from the basic +RandomNumberEngine behaviour. In Frankfurt it was observed +that RandomNumberEngine is that more refined concept, +and the basic concept used in the framework is +UniformRandomNumberGenerator, which it refines.

            -Scoped allocators and allocator propagation traits add a small amount of -utility at the cost of a great deal of machinery.

            -Components that I propose eliminating include HasAllocatorType, -is_scoped_allocator, allocator_propagation_map, scoped_allocator_adaptor, -and ConstructibleAsElement. +Ideally these classes would be deprecated, allowing unary/binary_function to +also be deprecated. However, until a generic negate adaptor is introduced +that can negate any Callable type, they must be supported so should be +constrained. Likewise, they should be movable, and support adopting a +move-only predicate type. +

    1. +

      +In 30.6.10 [futures.task], immediately after the definition of class +template packaged_task add: +

      +void swap(packaged_task<R(ArgTypes...)>& x, packaged_task<R(ArgTypes...)>& y);

      Discussion:

      + +

      +There are a couple of issues with the declaration of the random_shuffle +algorithm accepting a random number engine. +

      + +
        +
      1. +The Iterators must be shuffle iterators, yet this requirement is missing. +
      2. +
      3. +The RandomNumberEngine concept is now provided by the random number +library +(n2836) +and the placeholder should be removed. +
      4. +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-02 Daniel adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +this issue completes adding necessary requirement to the +third new random_shuffle overload. The current suggestion is: +

      + +
      template<RandomAccessIterator Iter, UniformRandomNumberGenerator Rand>
      +requires ShuffleIterator<Iter>
      +void random_shuffle(Iter first, Iter last, Rand&& g);
      +
      + +

      +IMO this is still insufficient and I suggest to add the requirement +

      +
      Convertible<Rand::result_type, Iter::difference_type>
      +
      +

      +to the list (as the two other overloads already have). +

      + +

      +Rationale: +

      + +
      +

      +Its true that this third overload is somewhat different from the remaining +two. Nevertheless we know from UniformRandomNumberGenerator, that +it's result_type is an integral type and that it satisfies +UnsignedIntegralLike<result_type>. +

      +

      +To realize it's designated task, the algorithm has to invoke the +Callable aspect of g and needs to perform some algebra involving +it's min()/max() limits to compute another index value that +at this point is converted into Iter::difference_type. This is so, +because 24.2.7 [random.access.iterators] uses this type as argument +of it's algebraic operators. Alternatively consider the equivalent +iterator algorithms in 24.4.4 [iterator.operations] with the same result. +

      +

      +This argument leads us to the conclusion that we also need +Convertible<Rand::result_type, Iter::difference_type> here. +

      +
      +

      +[2009-03-21 Sat] p. 535 at the top we need MoveConstructible V1, +MoveConstructible V2 (where V1,V2 are defined on 539). Also make_tuple +on 550 +

      + +
      +

      +CD-1 reads: +

      + +
      template <MoveConstructible T1, MoveConstructible T2> 
      +pair<V1, V2> make_pair(T1&&, T2&&); 
      +
      + +

      +Actually I'm guessing we need something like MoveConstructible<V1,T1>, +i.e. "V1 can be constructed from an rvalue of type T1." +

      + +

      +Ditto for make_tuple +

      +
      + +

      +[2009-03-21 Sat] p1183 thread ctor, and in general, we need a way to +talk about "copiable from generalized rvalue ref argument" for cases +where we're going to forward and copy. +

      +
      +

      + This issue may well be quite large. Language in para 4 about "if + an lvalue" is wrong because types aren't expressions. +

      + +
      +

      +Maybe we should define the term "move" so we can just say in the +effects, "f is moved into the newly-created thread" or something, and +agree (and ideally document) that saying "f is moved" implies +

      + +
      F x(move(f))
      +
      + +

      +is required to work. That would cover both ctors at once. +

      +
      + +

      + p1199, call_once has all the same issues. +

      +
      +

      +[2009-03-21 Sat] p869 InputIterator pointer type should not be required +to be convertible to const value_type*, rather it needs to have a +operator-> of its own that can be used for the value type. +

      + +
      +This one is serious and unrelated to the move issue. +
      + +

      +[2009-03-21 Sat] p818 stack has the same problem with default ctor. +

      +

      +[2009-03-21 Sat] p816 priority_queue has the same sorts of problems as queue, only more so +

      +
         requires MoveConstructible<Cont> 
      +     explicit priority_queue(const Compare& x = Compare(), Cont&& = Cont()); 
      +
      +

      + Don't require MoveConstructible when default constructing Cont. + Also missing semantics for move ctor. +

      +
      +

      + [2009-03-21 Sat] Why are Allocators required to be CopyConstructible as + opposed to MoveConstructible? +

      +

      + [2009-03-21 Sat] p813 queue needs a separate default ctor (Cont needn't + be MoveConstructible). No documented semantics for move c'tor. Or + *any* of its 7 ctors! +

      +

      + [2009-03-21 Sat] std::array should have constructors for C++0x, + consequently must consider move construction. +

      + +

      [ +2009-05-01 Daniel adds: +]

      + + +
      +This could be done as part of 1035, which already handles +deviation of std::array from container tables. +

      + [2009-03-21 Sat] p622 all messed up. +

      +
      +

      + para 8 "implementation-defined" is the wrong term; should be "see + below" or something. +

      +

      + para 12 "will be selected" doesn't make any sense because we're not + talking about actual arg types. +

      +

      + paras 9-13 need to be totally rewritten for concepts. +

      + +

      + [2009-03-21 Sat] Null pointer comparisons (p587) have all become + unconstrained. Need to fix that +

      +

      + [2009-03-21 Sat] mem_fun_t etc. definition doesn't match declaration. + We think CopyConstructible is the right reqt. +

          Discussion:

          -It is not currently possible to construct tuple literal values, -even if the elements are all literal types. This is because parameters -are passed to constructor by reference. +Std::bitset is a homogeneous container-like sequence of bits, yet it does +not model the Range concept so cannot be used with the new for-loop syntax. +It is the only such type in the library that does NOT support the new for +loop.

          -An alternative would be to pass all constructor arguments by value, where it -is known that *all* elements are literal types. This can be determined with -concepts, although note that the negative constraint really requires -factoring out a separate concept, as there is no way to provide an 'any of -these fails' constraint inline. +The obvious reason is that bitset does not support iterators.

          -Note that we will have similar issues with pair (and -tuple constructors from pair) although I am steering -clear of that class while other constructor-related issues settle. +At least two reasonable solutions are available: +

          +
            +
          1. +Add an iterator interface to bitset, bringing its interface close to that +of std::array +
          2. +
          3. +Provide an unspecified concept_map for Range<bitset>. +
          4. +
          +

          +The latter will still need some kind of iterator-like adapter for bitset, +but gives implementers greater freedom on the details. E.g. begin/end return +some type that simply invokes operator[] on the object it wraps, and +increments its index on operator++. A vendor can settle for InputIterator +support, rather than wrapping up a full RandomAccessIterator. +

          +

          +I have a mild preference for option (ii) as I think it is less work to +specify at this stage of the process, although (i) is probably more useful +in the long run. +

          +

          +Hmm, my wording looks a little woolly, as it does not say what the element +type of the range is. Do I get a range of bool, bitset<N>::reference, or +something else entirely? +

          +

          +I guess most users will assume the behaviour of reference, but expect to +work with bool. Bool is OK for read-only traversal, but you really need to +take a reference to a bitset::reference if you want to write back.

          -The copy constructor for the tuple template is constrained. This seems an -unusual strategy, as the copy constructor will be implicitly deleted if the -constraints are not met. This is exactly the same effect as requesting an -=default; constructor. The advantage of the latter is that it retains -triviality, and provides support for tuples as literal types if issue -1116 is also accepted. +The tuple query APIs tuple_size and +tuple_element do not support references-to-tuples. This can be +annoying when a template deduced a parameter type to be a reference, +which must be explicitly stripped with remove_reference before calling +these APIs. +

          +

          +I am not proposing a resolution at this point, as there is a +combinatorial explosion with lvalue/rvalue references and +cv-qualification (see previous issue) that suggests some higher +refactoring is in order. This might be something to kick back over to +Core/Evolution.

          -Actually, it might be worth checking with core if a constrained copy -constructor is treated as a constructor template, and as such does not -suppress the implicit generation of the copy constructor which would hide -the template in this case. +Note that we have the same problem in numeric_limits.

          Discussion:

          -The values num and den in the ratio template -should be declared constexpr. +Both add and multiply could sensibly be called with more than two arguments. +The variadic template facility makes such declarations simple, and is likely +to be frequently wrapped by end users if we do not supply the variant +ourselves. +

          +

          +We deliberately ignore divide at this point as it is not transitive. +Likewise, subtract places special meaning on the first argument so I do not +suggest extending that immediately. Both could be supported with analogous +wording to that for add/multiply below. +

          +

          +Note that the proposed resolution is potentially incompatible with that +proposed for 921, although the addition of the typedef to ratio would be +equally useful.

          -NAD Editorial. Solved by -N2994. +

          +The consensus of the group when we reviewed this in Santa Cruz was that +921 would proceed to Ready as planned, and the +multi-paramater add/multiply templates should be renamed as +ratio_sum and ratio_product to avoid the problem +mixing template aliases with partial specializations. +

          + +

          +It was also suggested to close this issue as NAD Future as it does not +correspond directly to any NB comment. NBs are free to submit a +specific comment (and re-open) in CD2 though. +

          + +

          +Walter Brown also had concerns on better directing the order of +evaluation to avoid overflows if we do proceed for 0x rather than TR1, +so wording may not be complete yet. +

          +ostream_iterator has not been updated to support moveable types, in a +similar manner to the insert iterators. +Note that this is not a problem for ostreambuf_iterator, as the types it is +restricted to dealing with do not support extra-efficient moving. +

          Proposed resolution:

          Description

          +

          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 [over.match.list]. The + standard library apparently has not been reviewed for + marking non-single-parameter constructors as explicit.

          +

          Suggestion

          +

          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.

          -I've been implementing compiler support for is_standard_layout, and -noticed a few nits about 20.6.4.3 [meta.unary.prop]: +Issue: The CopyConstructible requirements are wishy-washy. It requires +that the copy is "equivalent" to the original, but "equivalent" is never +defined. +

          +

          +I believe this to be an example of a more general lack of rigor around +copy and assignment, although I haven't done the research to dig up all +the instances. +

          +

          +It's a problem because if you don't know what CopyConstructible means, +you also don't know what it means to copy a pair of CopyConstructible +types. It doesn't prevent us from writing code, but it is a hole in our +ability to understand the meaning of copy. +

          +

          +Furthermore, I'm pretty sure that vector's copy constructor doesn't +require the elements to be EqualityComparable, so that table is actually +referring to some ill-defined notion of equivalence when it uses ==.

This means that above -wording can be interpreted -by compiler writers that they satisfy the requirements of the standard -if they just produce -such a "warning", if the compiler happens to compile code like this: +Meanwhile, p4 goes on to contradict this:

          It's not clear that there's any important difference between -"ill-formed" and "diagnostic required". From 1.4 [intro.compliance], -1.3.5 [defns.ill.formed], and 1.3.15 [defns.well.formed] it appears -that an ill-formed program is one -that is not correctly constructed according to the syntax rules and -diagnosable semantic rules, which means that... "a conforming -implementation shall issue at least one diagnostic message." The -author's intent seems to be that we should be requiring a fatal error -instead of a mere warning, but the standard just doesn't have language -to express that distinction. The strongest thing we can ever require is -a "diagnostic". -

          -The proposed rewording may be a clearer way of expressing the same thing -that the WP already says, but such a rewording is editorial. +The work on concepts for iterators showed us that output iterator really +is fundamentally a second dimension to the iterator categories, rather +than part of the linear input -> forward -> bidirectional -> +random-access sequence.

            -Change 20.8.14.1.2 [unique.ptr.dltr.dflt1]/1 as indicated: +Unordered associative containers have a notion of a maximum load factor: +when the number of elements grows large enough, the containers +automatically perform a rehash so that the number of elements per bucket +stays below a user-specified bound. This ensures that the hash table's +performance characteristics don't change dramatically as the size +increases.

            -

            -operator() calls delete[] on ptr. A diagnostic is required if T -is an incomplete type. +For similar reasons, Google has found it useful to specify a minimum +load factor: when the number of elements shrinks by a large enough, the +containers automatically perform a rehash so that the number of elements +per bucket stays above a user-specified bound. This is useful for two +reasons. First, it prevents wasting a lot of memory when an unordered +associative container grows temporarily. Second, it prevents amortized +iteration time from being arbitrarily large; consider the case of a hash +table with a billion buckets and only one element. (This was discussed +even before TR1 was published; it was TR issue 6.13, which the LWG +closed as NAD on the grounds that it was a known design feature. +However, the LWG did not consider the approach of a minimum load +factor.)

            -Remarks: The program shall be ill-formed, if T is an incomplete type. +The only interesting question is when shrinking is allowed. In principle +the cleanest solution would be shrinking on erase, just as we grow on +insert. However, that would be a usability problem; it would break a +number of common idioms involving erase. Instead, Google's hash tables +only shrink on insert and rehash.

        Discussion:

        +

        +The footnote for int_type in 21.2.2 [char.traits.typedefs] says that +

        + +
        +If eof() +can be held in char_type then some iostreams implementations may give +surprising results. +
        + +

        +This implies that int_type should be a superset of +char_type. However, the requirements for char16_t and char32_t define +int_type to be equal to int_least16_t and int_least32_t respectively. +int_least16_t is likely to be the same size as char_16_t, which may lead +to surprising behavior, even if eof() is not a valid UTF-16 code unit. +The standard should not prescribe surprising behavior, especially +without saying what it is (it's apparently not undefined, just +surprising). The same applies for 32-bit types. +

        + +

        +I personally recommend that behavior be undefined if eof() is a member +of char_type, and another type be chosen for int_type (my personal +favorite has always been a struct {bool eof; char_type c;}). +Alternatively, the exact results of such a situation should be defined, +at least so far that I/O could be conducted on these types as long as +the code units remain valid. Note that the argument that no one streams +char16_t or char32_t is not really valid as it would be perfectly +reasonable to use a basic_stringstream in conjunction with UTF character +types. +

        Discussion:

        +

        +Spotting a recent thread on the boost lists regarding collapsing +optional representations in optional<optional<T>> instances, I wonder if +we have some of the same issues with make_tuple, and now make_pair? +

        + +

        +Essentially, if my generic code in my own library is handed a +reference_wrapper by a user, and my library in turn delegates some logic +to make_pair or make_tuple, then I am going to end up with a pair/tuple +holding a real reference rather than the intended reference wrapper. +

        + +

        +There are two things as a library author I can do at this point: +

        + +
          +
        1. +document my library also has the same reference-wrapper behaviour as +std::make_tuple +
        2. +
        3. +roll my own make_tuple that does not unwrap rereferences, a lost +opportunity to re-use the standard library. +
        4. +
        + +

        +(There may be some metaprogramming approaches my library can use to wrap +the make_tuple call, but all will be significantly more complex than +simply implementing a simplified make_tuple.) +

        + +

        +Now I don't propose we lose this library facility, I think unwrapping +references will be the common behaviour. However, we might want to +consider adding another overload that does nothing special with +ref-wrappers. Note that we already have a second overload of make_tuple +in the library, called tie. +

        + +

        [ +2009-09-30 Daniel adds: +]

        + + +
        +

        +I suggest to change the currently proposed paragraph for +make_simple_pair +

        + +

        +to follow a currently introduced style and because the library does +not have yet a specific "Type requirements" element.

        +

        Discussion:

        +

        +The specification of integral_constant has been inherited +essentially unchanged from TR1: +

        + +
        template <class T, T v>
        +struct integral_constant {
        +  static const T value = v;
        +  typedef T value_type;
        +  typedef integral_constant<T,v> type;
        +};
        +
        + +

        +In light of 0x language changes there are several things we might +consider changing, notably the form of specification for value. +

        + +

        +The current form requires a static data member have storage allocated +for it, where we could now implement without this using the new enum +syntax: +

        + +
        template <class T, T v>
        +struct integral_constant {
        +  enum : T { value = v };
        +  typedef T value_type;
        +  typedef integral_constant type;
        +};
        +
        + +

        +The effective difference between these two implementation is: +

        + +
          +
        1. +No requirement to allocate storage for data member (which we hope but do +not guarantee compilers strip today) +
        2. + +
        3. +You can no longer take the address of the constant as +&integral_constant<T,v>::value; +
        4. +
        + +

        +Also note the editorial change to drop the explicit qualification of +integral_constant in the typedef type. This makes it quite clear we +mean the current instantiation, and cannot be mistaken for a recursive +metaprogram. +

        + +

        +Even if we don't mandate this implementation, it would be nice to give +vendors freedom under QoI to choose their preferred representation. +

        + +

        +The other side of this issue is if we choose to retain the static +constant form. In that case we should go further and insist on +constexpr, much like we did throughout numeric_limits: +

        + +
        template <class T, T v>
        +struct integral_constant {
        +  static constexpr T value = v;
        +  typedef T value_type;
        +  typedef integral_constant type;
        +};
        +
        + +

        +[Footnote] It turns out constexpr is part of the Tentatively Ready +resolution for 1019. I don't want to interfere with that issue, but +would like a new issue to consider if the fixed-base enum implementation +should be allowed. +

        + +

        [ +2009-09-05 Daniel adds: +]

        + + +
        +

        +I think that the suggested resolution is incomplete and +may have some possible unwanted side-effects. To understand +why, note that integral_constant is completely specified +by code in 20.7.3 [meta.help]. While this is usually considered +as a good thing, let me give a possible user-defined +specialization that would break given the suggested changes: +

        + +
        enum NodeColor { Red, Black };
        +
        +std::integral_constant<NodeColor, Red> red;
        +
        + +

        +The reason why that breaks is due to the fact that +current core language rules does only allow integral +types as enum-bases, see 7.2 [dcl.enum]/2. +

        + +

        +So, I think that we cannot leave the implementation the +freedom to decide which way they would like to provide +the implementation, because that is easily user-visible +(I don't speak of addresses, but of instantiation errors), +therefore if applied, this should be either specified or +wording must be added that gives a note about this +freedom of implementation. +

        + +

        +Another possible disadvantage seems to me that user-expectations +are easy to disappoint if they see a failure +of the test +

        + +
        assert(typeid(std::integral_constant<int, 0>::value) == typeid(int));
        +
        + +

        Discussion:

        +

        +I contend that while we can support both bidirectional and random access +traversal, the category of a move iterator should never be better than +input_iterator_tag. +

        + +

        +The contentious point is that you cannot truly have a multipass property +when values are moved from a range. This is contentious if you view a +moved-from object as still holding a valid value within the range. +

        + +

        +The second reason comes from the Forward Iterator requirements table: +

        + +
        +

        +Forward iterators 24.2.5 [forward.iterators] +

        + +

        +Table 102 -- Forward iterator requirements +

        + +
        +For expression *a the return type is: +"T& if X is mutable, otherwise const T&" +
        +
        + +

        +There is a similar constraint on a->m. +

        + +

        +There is no support for rvalue references, nor do I believe their should +be. Again, opinions may vary but either this table or the definition of +move_iterator need updating. +

        + +

        +Note: this requirement probably need updating anyway if we wish to +support proxy iterators but I am waiting to see a new working paper +before filing that issue. +

        +Move to Open. Howard to put his rationale mentioned above into the issue +as a note. +

        + + +
        +

        +vector::insert(pos, iter, iter) is significantly more effcient when +iter is a random access iterator, as compared to when it is an +input iterator. +

        + +

        +When iter is an input iterator, the best algorithm +is to append the inserted range to the end of the vector using +push_back. This may involve several reallocations before the input +range is exhausted. After the append, then one can use std::rotate +to place the inserted range into the correct position in the vector. +

        + +

        +But when iter is a random access iterator, the best algorithm +is to first compute the size of the range to be inserted (last - first), +do a buffer reallocation if necessary, scoot existing elements in the vector +down to make the "hole", and then insert the new elements directly to their correct +place. +

        + +
        +The insert-with-random-access-iterators algorithm is considerably more efficient +than the insert-with-input-iterators algorithm +
        + +

        +Now consider: +

        + +
        vector<A> v;
        +//  ... build up a large vector of A ...
        +vector<A> temp;
        +//  ... build up a large temporary vector of A to later be inserted ...
        +typedef move_iterator<vector<A>::iterator> MI;
        +//  Now insert the temporary elements:
        +v.insert(v.begin() + N, MI(temp.begin()), MI(temp.end()));
        +
        + +

        +A major motivation for using move_iterator in the above example is the +expectation that A is cheap to move but expensive to copy. I.e. the +customer is looking for high performance. If we allow vector::insert +to subtract two MI's to get the distance between them, the customer enjoys +substantially better performance, compared to if we say that vector::insert +can not subtract two MI's. +

        + +

        +I can find no rationale for not giving this performance boost to our customers. +Therefore I am strongly against restricting move_iterator to the +input_iterator_tag category. +

        + +

        +I believe that the requirement that forward +iterators have a dereference that returns an lvalue reference to cause unacceptable +pessimization. For example vector<bool>::iterator also does not return +a bool& on dereference. Yet I am not aware of a single vendor that +is willing to ship vector<bool>::iterator as an input iterator. +Everyone classifies it as a random access iterator. Not only does this not +cause any problems, it prevents significant performance problems. +

        +Given an rvalue fn of type Fn and values t1, t2, +..., tN of types T1, T2, ...

        +
        + +

        +This text doesn't seem to consider lvalue reference types for Fn. +Also, it's not clear whether this class template can be used for +"SFINAE" like std::enable_if. Example: +

        + +
        template<typename Fn, typename... Args>

        +}
        +
        + +

        +Either std::result_of<...> can be instantiated and simply may not have +a typedef "type" (-->SFINAE) or instantiating the class template for +some type combinations will be a "hard" compile-time error. +

        +as constexpr functions are incompatible to the requirements of constexpr +functions given their specified implementation. Note that the incompatibility +is not a result of the modifications proposed by the issue resolution, +but already existed within the +N2960 +state where we have +

        + +
        extern const error_category* const future_category;

        +
        +
        +3 Returns: error_code(static_cast<int>(e), *future_category). +

        +
        +4 Returns: error_condition(static_cast<int>(e), *future_category). +
        +
        + +

        +Neither is any of the constructors of error_code and error_condition +constexpr, nor does the expression *future_category satisfy the +requirements for a constant expression (5.19 [expr.const]/2 bullet 6 in +N3000). +

        + +

        +The simple solution is just to remove the constexpr qualifiers for both +functions, which makes sense, because none of the remaining make_error_* +overloads in the library is constexpr. One might consider to realize that +those make_* functions could satisfy the constexpr requirements, but this +looks not like an easy task to me, because it would need to rely on a not +yet existing language feature. If such a change is wanted, a new issue +should be opened after the language extension approval (if at all) [1]. +

        Discussion:

        +

        +According to p1 20.7.2 [meta.type.synop]: +

        + +
        +The behavior of a program that adds specializations for any of the class +templates defined in this subclause is undefined unless otherwise +specified. +
        + +

        +I believe we should 'otherwise specify' for the nothrow traits, are +these are exactly the use cases where the end user actually has more +information than the compiler. +

        + +

        [ +2009-10 Santa Cruz: +]

        + + +
        +Moved to Open. Definitely need to give the users the ability to ensure +that the traits give the right answers. Unsure we want to give them the +ability to say this in more than one way. Believes the noexcept proposal +already gives this. +
        + +

        [ +2010 Pittsburgh: Moved to NAD, rationale added below. +]

        + + + + +

        Rationale:

        +

        +We believe the solution offered by +N3050 +is superior. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +Add the following comment: +

        + +
        +user specialization permitted to derive from std::true_type when the +operation is known not to throw. +
        + +

        +to the following traits in 20.7.4.3 [meta.unary.prop] Table 43 Type +property predicates. +

        + +

        Discussion:

        +

        +N2960 +19.5.2.1 [syserr.errcode.overview] and 19.5.2.3 [syserr.errcode.modifiers] say: +

        + +
         
        +template <class ErrorCodeEnum>
        +  typename enable_if<is_error_code_enum<ErrorCodeEnum>::value>::type&
        +    operator=(ErrorCodeEnum e);
        +
        + +

        +They should say: +

        + +
         
        +template <class ErrorCodeEnum>
        +  typename enable_if<is_error_code_enum<ErrorCodeEnum>::value, error_code>::type&
        +    operator=(ErrorCodeEnum e);
        +
        + +

        +Or (I prefer this form): +

        + +
         
        +template <class ErrorCodeEnum>
        +  typename enable_if<is_error_code_enum<ErrorCodeEnum>::value, error_code&>::type
        +    operator=(ErrorCodeEnum e);
        +
        + +

        +This is because enable_if is declared as (20.7.7.6 [meta.trans.other]): +

        + +
         
        +template <bool B, class T = void> struct enable_if;
        +
        + +

        +So, the current wording makes operator= return +void&, which is not good. +

        + +

        +19.5.2.3 [syserr.errcode.modifiers]/4 says +

        + +
        +Returns: *this. +

        which is correct.

          1238. defining algorithms taking iterator for range

          +

          Section: 25 [algorithms] Status: NAD Future + Submitter: Alisdair Meredith Opened: 2009-10-15 Last modified: 2010-10-23

          Discussion:

          +

          +The library has many algorithms that take a source range represented by +a pair of iterators, and the start of some second sequence given by a +single iterator. Internally, these algorithms will produce undefined +behaviour if the second 'range' is not as large as the input range, but +none of the algorithms spell this out in Requires clauses, and there is +no catch-all wording to cover this in clause 17 or the front matter of +25. +

          + +

          +There was an attempt to provide such wording in paper +n2944 +but this +seems incidental to the focus of the paper, and getting the wording of +this issue right seems substantially more difficult than the simple +approach taken in that paper. Such wording will be removed from an +updated paper, and hopefully tracked via the LWG issues list instead. +

          + +

          +It seems there are several classes of problems here and finding wording +to solve all in one paragraph could be too much. I suspect we need +several overlapping requirements that should cover the desired range of +behaviours. +

          + +

          +Motivating examples: +

          + +

          +A good initial example is the swap_ranges algorithm. Here there is a +clear requirement that first2 refers to the start of a valid range at +least as long as the range [first1, last1). n2944 tries to solve this +by positing a hypothetical last2 iterator that is implied by the +signature, and requires distance(first2,last2) < distance(first1,last1). + This mostly works, although I am uncomfortable assuming that last2 is +clearly defined and well known without any description of how to obtain +it (and I have no idea how to write that). +

          + +

          +A second motivating example might be the copy algorithm. Specifically, +let us image a call like: +

          + +
          copy(istream_iterator<int>(is),istream_iterator(),ostream_iterator<int>(os));
          +
          + +

          +In this case, our input iterators are literally simple InputIterators, +and the destination is a simple OutputIterator. In neither case am I +happy referring to std::distance, in fact it is not possible for the +ostream_iterator at all as it does not meet the requirements. However, +any wording we provide must cover both cases. Perhaps we might deduce +last2 == ostream_iterator<int>{}, but that might not always be valid for +user-defined iterator types. I can well imagine an 'infinite range' +that writes to /dev/null and has no meaningful last2. +

          + +

          +The motivating example in n2944 is std::equal, and that seems to fall somewhere between the +two. +

          + +

          +Outlying examples might be partition_copy that takes two output +iterators, and the _n algorithms where a range is specified by a +specific number of iterations, rather than traditional iterator pair. +We should also not accidentally apply inappropriate constraints to +std::rotate which takes a third iterator that is not intended to be a +separate range at all. +

          + +

          +I suspect we want some wording similar to: +

          + +
          +For algorithms that operate on ranges where the end iterator of the +second range is not specified, the second range shall contain at least +as many elements as the first. +
          + +

          +I don't think this quite captures the intent yet though. I am not sure +if 'range' is the right term here rather than sequence. More awkwardly, +I am not convinced we can describe an Output sequence such as produce by +an ostream_iterator as "containing elements", at least not as a +precondition to the call before they have been written. +

          + +

          +Another idea was to describe require that the trailing iterator support +at least distance(input range) applications of operator++ and may be +written through the same number of times if a mutable/output iterator. +

          + +

          +We might also consider handling the case of an output range vs. an input +range in separate paragraphs, if that simplifies how we describe some of +these constraints. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +I just came across issue 1204 -- Global permission to move, which +seems to address the concern raised by the example in c++std-lib-25030. +

          +

          +IIUC, the example violates the permission to assume that arguments +bound to rvalue references are unnamed temporaries granted to +implementations by the resolution of issue 1204 - Global permission +to move. +

          + +

          +I.e., the ostringstream(ostringstream &&rhs) ctor can leave the rhs +pointers pointing to the newly constructed object's buffer just as +long as the dtor doesn't change or invalidate the buffer. The caller +may not make any assumptions about rhs after the move beyond it being +safe to destroy or reassign. +

          + +

          +So unless I misunderstood something, I still think the basic_stringbuf +move ctor is overspecified. Specifically, I think the third sentence +in the Effects clause and the last 6 bullets in the Postconditions +clause can, and IMO should, be stricken. +

          + +

          [ +2010-01-31 Moved to Tentatively NAD after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib. +Rationale added below. +]

          + + + +

          Rationale:

          +

          +The sense of 1251 appears to be that the basic_stringbuf move +constructor offers more guarantees than the minimum. This is true, and quite +correct. The additional words guarantee that the internal buffer has genuinely +transferred from one object to another, and further operations on the original +will not affect the buffer of the newly created object. This is a very +important guarantee, much as we see that a moved-from unique_ptr is +guaranteed to be empty. +

          +
          +

          +Effects: Move constructs from the rvalue rhs. It is +implementation-defined whether the sequence pointers in *this +(eback(), gptr(), egptr(), pbase(), +pptr(), epptr()) obtain the values which rhs +had. Whether they do or not, *this and rhs reference +separate buffers (if any at all) after the construction. The openmode, +locale and any other state of rhs is also copied. +

          + +

          +Postconditions: Let rhs_p refer to the state of +rhs just prior to this construction and let rhs_a +referto the state of rhs just after this construction. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +18.10 [support.runtime]/4 says that longjmp is undefined if +unwinding by the mechanism used by catch and throw would invoke any nontrivial +destructors. However, the text as written is rather vague, in particular when +dealing with catch(...): +

          + +
          void foo() {
          +  jump_buf buf;
          +  non_trivial_dtor n1; // 1
          +  if (!setjmp(buf)) {
          +    non_trivial_dtor n2; // 2
          +    try {
          +      longjmp(buf, 1);
          +    } catch (...) {
          +    }
          +  }
          +}
          +
          + +

          +My interpretation of the meaning of 18.10 [support.runtime]/4 is that +declaration 2, but not 1, would cause the longjmp to be undefined +behavior. However, it's not entirely clear from the text. Arguably, replacing +the setjmp and longjmp with catch would still cause +the destructor for n1 to be called after the unwinding, which would +lead to undefined behavior. This is clearly not an intended consequence of the +wording. However, it is probably still UB, as n1 now has +"indeterminate" value, and running its destructor on foo's exit will +cause Bad Things. +

          + +

          +Declarations 2 has a more interesting issue. The catch(...) muddles up +the definition that uses throw and catch - if +longjmp() were indeed a throw, control would never return to +the setjmp. As such, n2's destructor wouldn't be called +(except by the argument for n1, which is that the destructor would be +called later as the frame was left in the normal control flow). +

          + +

          +I suggest that paragraph 4 of 18.10 [support.runtime] should be replaced +with the following, or something that reads better but has the same effect: +

          + +
          +The function signature longjmp(jmp_buf jbuf, int val) has more +restricted behavior in this International Standard. A call to longjmp +has undefined behavior if any non-trivial destructors would be called were the +longjmp call replaced with a throw-expression whose nearest matching +handler were a (possibly imaginary) function-try-block on the function +containing the corresponding setjmp call. +
          + +

          [ +2009-11-17 Moved to Tentatively NAD after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib. +Rationale added below. +]

          + + + +

          Proposed resolution:

          +

          +Change 18.10 [support.runtime]/4: +

          + +
          +The function signature longjmp(jmp_buf jbuf, int val) has more +restricted behavior in this International Standard. A +setjmp/longjmp call pair has undefined behavior if replacing +the setjmp and longjmp by catch and throw +would invoke any non-trivial destructors for any automatic objects. +A call to longjmp has undefined behavior if any non-trivial +destructors would be called were the longjmp call replaced with a +throw-expression whose nearest matching handler were a (possibly imaginary) +function-try-block on the function containing the corresponding setjmp +call. +
          + + +

          Rationale:

          +

          +In the given example, it is clear that it is only n2 and not +n1 that is destroyed by the longjmp. +

          +

          +At this late stage in the standards process, we are focusing on issues that +impact users or implementers. Trying to rewrite complex wording just for the +sake of improved clarity is likely to do more harm than good. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +If a shared_future is constructed with the result of an async call with a +deferred function, and two or more copies of that shared_future are created, +with multiple threads calling get(), it is not clear which thread runs the +deferred function. 30.6.7 [futures.shared_future]p22 from +N3000 +says (minus editor's note): +

          + +
          +Effects: if the associated state contains a deferred function, executes +the deferred function. Otherwise, blocks until the associated state is ready. +
          + +

          +In the absence of wording to the contrary, this implies that every thread that +calls wait() will execute the deferred function. +

          + + + + +

          Rationale:

          +

          +Solved by +N3058. +

          + + +

          Proposed resolution:

          +

          +Replace 30.6.7 [futures.shared_future]p22 with the following: +

          + +
          +

          +Effects: If the associated state +contains a deferred function, executes the deferred function. Otherwise, +blocks until the associated state is ready. +was created by a promise or packaged_task object, block +until the associated state is ready. If the associated state is associated with +a thread created for an async call (30.6.9 [futures.async]), as +if associated-thread.join(). +

          + +

          +If the associated state contains a deferred function, calls to wait() +on all shared_future objects that share the same associated state are +serialized. The first call to wait() that shares a given associated +state executes the deferred function and stores the return value or exception in +the associated state. +

          + +

          +Synchronization: if the associated state was created by a +promise object, the completion of set_value() or +set_exception() to that promise happens before (1.10 [intro.multithread]) wait() returns. If the associated state +was created by a packaged_task object, the completion of the associated +task happens before wait() returns. If the associated state is +associated with a thread created for an async call (30.6.9 [futures.async]), the completion of the associated thread happens-before +wait() returns. +

          + +

          +If the associated state contained a deferred function, the invocation of the +deferred function happens-before any call to wait() on a +future that shares that state returns. +

          +r1 = r2;  
          +
          + +

          +The nested type of ratio_subtract<ratio<2,3>, +ratio<1,3>> could be ratio<3,9> so the compilation +could fail. It could also be ratio<1,3> and the compilation +succeeds. +

          + +
          +3 The nested typedef type shall be a synonym for ratio<T1, +T2> where T1 has the value R1::num * R2::den - R2::num * +R1::den and T2 has the value R1::den * R2::den. +
          + +

          +the meaning of synonym let think that the result shall be a normalized +ratio equivalent to ratio<T1, T2>, but there is not an +explicit definition of what synonym means in this context. +

          + +

          +Additionally we should add a typedef for accessing the normalized +ratio, and change 20.6.2 [ratio.arithmetic] to return only this +normalized result. +

          +This issue was discussed in Pittsburgh, and the decision there was to accept the +typedef as proposed and move to Review. Unfortunately the issue was accidently +applied to the FCD, and incorrectly. The FCD version of the typedef refers to +ratio<N, D>, but the typedef is intended to refer to +ratio<num, den> which in general is not the same type. +

          Discussion:

          +
            + +
          1. +

            +Motivation and Scope +

            +

            +Splitting strings into parts by some set of delimiters is an often task, but +there is no simple and generalized solution in C++ Standard. Usually C++ +developers use std::basic_stringstream<> to split string into +parts, but there are several inconvenient restrictions: +

            + +
              +
            • +we cannot explicitly assign the set of delimiters; +
            • +
            • +this approach is suitable only for strings, but not for other types of +containers; +
            • +
            • +we have (possible) performance leak due to string instantiation. +
            • +
            +
          2. + +
          3. +

            +Impact on the Standard +

            +

            +This algorithm doesn't interfere with any of current standard algorithms. +

            +
          4. + +
          5. +

            +Design Decisions +

            +

            +This algorithm is implemented in terms of input/output iterators. Also, there is +one additional wrapper for const CharType * specified delimiters. +

            +
          6. + +
          7. +

            +Example implementation +

            +
            template< class It, class DelimIt, class OutIt >
            +void split( It begin, It end, DelimIt d_begin, DelimIt d_end, OutIt out )
            +{
            +   while ( begin != end )
            +   {
            +       It it = std::find_first_of( begin, end, d_begin, d_end );
            +       *out++ = std::make_pair( begin, it );
            +       begin = std::find_first_of( it, end, d_begin, d_end,
            +           std::not2( std::equal_to< typename It::value_type >() ) );
            +   }
            +}
            +
            +template< class It, class CharType, class OutIt >
            +void split( It begin, It end, const CharType * delim, OutIt out )
            +{
            +   split( begin, end, delim, delim + std::strlen( delim ), out );
            +}
            +
            +
          8. + +
          9. +

            +Usage +

            +
            std::string ss( "word1 word2 word3" );
            +std::vector< std::pair< std::string::const_iterator, std::string::const_iterator > > v;
            +split( ss.begin(), ss.end(), " ", std::back_inserter( v ) );
            +
            +for ( int i = 0; i < v.size(); ++i )
            +{
            +   std::cout << std::string( v[ i ].first, v[ i ].second ) << std::endl;
            +}
            +// word1
            +// word2
            +// word3
            +

          + + + +

          Rationale:

          +

          +The LWG is not considering completely new features for standardization at this +time. We would like to revisit this good suggestion for a future TR and/or +standard. +

          + + +

          Proposed resolution:

          +

          +Add to the synopsis in 25.1 [algorithms.general]: +

          + +
          template< class ForwardIterator1, class ForwardIterator2, class OutputIterator >
          +  void split( ForwardIterator1 first, ForwardIterator1 last,
          +              ForwardIterator2 delimiter_first, ForwardIterator2 delimiter_last,
          +              OutputIterator result );
          +
          +template< class ForwardIterator1, class CharType, class OutputIterator >
          +  void split( ForwardIterator1 first, ForwardIterator1 last,
          +              const CharType * delimiters, OutputIterator result );
          +
          + +

          +Add a new section [alg.split]: +

          + +
          template< class ForwardIterator1, class ForwardIterator2, class OutputIterator >
          +  void split( ForwardIterator1 first, ForwardIterator1 last,

          +              OutputIterator result );
          +
          + +
          +

          +1. Effects: splits the range [first, last) into parts, using any +element of [delimiter_first, delimiter_last) as a delimiter. Results +are pushed to output iterator in the form of std::pair<ForwardIterator1, +ForwardIterator1>. Each of these pairs specifies a maximal subrange of +[first, last) which does not contain a delimiter. +

          +

          +2. Returns: nothing. +

          +

          +3. Complexity: Exactly last - first assignments. +

          +
          + +
          template< class ForwardIterator1, class CharType, class OutputIterator >

          +
          + +
          +

          +1. Effects: split the range [first, last) into parts, using any +element of delimiters (interpreted as zero-terminated string) as a +delimiter. Results are pushed to output iterator in the form of +std::pair<ForwardIterator1, ForwardIterator1>. Each of these +pairs specifies a maximal subrange of [first, last) which does not +contain a delimiter. +

          1289. Generic casting requirements for smart pointers

          +

          Discussion:

          +

          +In section 20.2.5 [allocator.requirements], Table 40 — Allocator requirements, +the following expression is required for allocator pointers: +

          + +
          + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
          Table 40 — Allocator requirements
          ExpressionReturn typeAssertion/note
          pre-/post-condition
          Default
          static_cast<X::pointer>(w)X::pointerstatic_cast<X::pointer>(w) == p 
          +
          + +

          +To achieve this expression, a smart pointer writer must introduce an explicit +conversion operator from smart_ptr<void> to +smart_ptr<T> so that +static_cast<pointer>(void_ptr) is a valid expression. +Unfortunately this explicit conversion weakens the safety of a smart pointer +since the following expression (invalid for raw pointers) would become valid: +

          + +
          smart_ptr<void> smart_v = ...;
          +smart_ptr<T> smart_t(smart_v);
          +
          + +

          +On the other hand, shared_ptr also defines its own casting functions in +20.9.10.2.10 [util.smartptr.shared.cast], and although it's unlikely that a +programmer will use shared_ptr as allocator::pointer, having +two different ways to do the same cast operation does not seem reasonable. A +possible solution would be to replace static_cast<X::pointer>(w) +expression with a user customizable (via ADL) +static_pointer_cast<value_type>(w), and establish the +xxx_pointer_cast functions introduced by shared_ptr as the +recommended generic casting utilities of the standard. +

          + +

          +Unfortunately, we've experienced problems in Boost when trying to establish +xxx_pointer_cast as customization points for generic libraries (http://objectmix.com/c/40424-adl-lookup-explicit-template-parameters.html) +because these casting functions are called with explicit template parameters and +the standard says in 14.8.1 [temp.arg.explicit] p.8 "Explicit template +argument specification": +

          + +
          +8 ...But when a function template with explicit template arguments is used, the +call does not have the correct syntactic form unless there is a function +template with that name visible at the point of the call. If no such name is +visible, the call is not syntactically well-formed and argument-dependent lookup +does not apply. +
          + +

          +So we can do this: +

          + +
          template<class BasePtr>
          +void generic_ptr_swap(BasePtr p)
          +{
          +  //ADL customization point
          +  swap(p, p);
          +  //...
          +}
          +
          + +

          +but not the following: +

          + +
          template<class BasePtr>
          +void generic_ptr_algo(BasePtr p)
          +{
          +  typedef std::pointer_traits<BasePtr>::template
          +     rebind<Derived> DerivedPtr;
          +  DerivedPtr dp = static_pointer_cast<Derived>(p);
          +}
          +
          + +

          +The solution to make static_pointer_cast a customization point is to +add a generic declaration (no definition) of static_pointer_cast in a +namespace (like std) and apply "using +std::static_pointer_cast" declaration to activate ADL: +

          + +
          namespace std{
          +
          +template<typename U, typename T>
          +unspecified
          +static_pointer_cast(T&&) = delete;
          +
          +}
          +
          +template<class BasePtr>
          +void generic_ptr_algo(BasePtr p)
          +{
          +  typedef std::pointer_traits<BasePtr>::template
          +     rebind<Derived> DerivedPtr;
          +
          +  //ADL applies because static_pointer_cast is made
          +  //  visible according to [temp.arg.explicit]/8
          +  using std::static_pointer_cast;
          +
          +  DerivedPtr dp = static_pointer_cast<Derived>(p);
          +
          +  //...
          +}
          +
          + +

          +A complete solution will need also the definition of +static_pointer_cast for raw pointers, and this definition has been +present in Boost (http://www.boost.org/boost/ +pointer_cast.hpp) for years. +

          + +

          Discussion:

          +

          +The container class templates map and multimap both contain a +nested type called value_compare, that is used to compare the +value_type pair elements, an adaptor of the user-supplied comparison +function-like object. +

          + +

          +I believe these types are over-specified, as we require a distinct type for each +template, even though the allocator plays no part in the comparator, and +map and multimap value_compare classes could easily be shared. + The benefits are similar to the SCARY iterator proposal (although on a much +smaller scale!) but unlike SCARY, this is not a QoI issue today but actively +prohibited. +

          + +

          +If the value_compare classes were marked 'exposition only', a vendor +would be free to experiment with implementations that do not produce so many +template instantiations with negligible impact on conforming programs. (There +is a minor risk that programs could no longer portably overload functions taking +value_compare types. This scenario is extremely unlikely outside +conformance suites.) +

          + +

          +(Note that there are no similar problems for unordered maps, nor any of the set +variants) +

          + + +
          +

          +First, I read the newly proposed spec for clear() that it does in +general not invalidate a previous past-the-end iterator value, but +deque says in 23.3.2.3 [deque.modifiers] for the semantics of +erase that erasures at the end will invalidate the past-the-end +iterator. With removal of a direct binding between clear() and +erase() there seem to be some fixes necessary. One way to fix that +would be to mention in Table 94 that this "may also invalidate the past-the-end +iterator" and then to mention for all specific containers where this does not +happen, the exception, [1] e.g. in std::vector. std::vector +has no own specification of clear() and one aspect of the closed issue +1102 was to realize just that (indirectly via erase). IMO +we should now add an extra specification for clear(). Btw.: +std::vector::erase reads to me that it would invalidate previous +past-the-end values (and that seems correct in general). +

          +

          +Before I will provide explicit wording, I would like to +discuss these points. +

          + +

          Discussion:

          +

          +According to the new naming scheme introduced with +N2680 +

          + +
          vector<T> v;
          +v.emplace(v.begin(),x,y,z)
          +
          + +

          +now has a different semantics than +

          + +
          set<T> s;
          +s.emplace(s.begin(),x,y,z);
          +
          + +

          +While the version for vectors takes the first argument as position and +the remaining for construction, the version for sets takes all +arguments for construction. +

          + +

          +IMO, this is a serious design mistake for a couple of reasons: +

          + +
            +
          • +

            +First, in principle, all STL member functions should have the same behavior with +the same member function to avoid confusion and allow to write proper generic +code. +

            +

            +In fact, when I write the following simple function template: +

            +
            template <typename T>
            +void doEmplace (T& cont)
            +{
            +   cont.emplace(cont.begin(),"nico","josuttis",42);
            +}
            +
            +

            +the semantics depends on the type of the container. +

            +
          • +
          • +

            +In addition, I also guess using the name emplace_hint() instead of +emplace() for associative containers is a design mistake. According to +my knowledge, it was a design goal of the original STL to provide ONE +insert function, which works for ALL containers. This was +insert(pos,val). +

            +

            +The trick to declare pos as a hint, allowed that we could implement a +generic insert for all containers. Now, with the new emplace +naming scheme, this trick is gone for the new kind of insertion. +

            +
          • +
          + +

          +I consider this to be a serious design penalty because once this +is specified we can't fix that without breaking backward compatibility. +

          + +

          +However, we have two choices for a fix: +

          + +
            +
          • +rename emplace_hint(pos,val) for associative containers back to +emplace(pos,val). However to avoid the overloading problems, we also +have to rename the existing emplace(val) functions to something else (I +don't have a good name here at hand). +
          • +
          • +Keep emplace(val) for associative containers as it is, but rename +emplace(pos,val) for sequence containers and +emplace_hint(pos,val) to something like emplace_at(pos,val), +declaring that pos is a hint for associative containers. +

          +Atomic future retains the extended earlier API, and provides defined, +synchronized behaviour for all calls.

          +

          Discussion:

          +

          +In San Francisco, June 2008, N2722 +was adopted, replacing the variadic templates min, max, and +minmax by overloads that have an initializer_list<T> +parameter. The paper showed benchmark results wherein initializer_list +versions of min appeared to outperform the corresponding variadic +template. Unfortunately, in October 2009 a very serious error was detected in +the benchmark. (c++std-lib-25210). +In fact, an initializer_list<T> version of min often +appears to perform worse than the corresponding variadic template, +especially when T has an expensive copy constructor (c++std-lib-25253, +http://www.xs4all.nl/~nd/dekkerware/issues/n2772_fix). +

          +

          +IMO, the biggest problem of the initializer_list overloads is that they +pass and return T objects by value. Which has the following +consequences: +

          + +
            +
          1. +They require that T is CopyConstructible. IMO that is too much of a +constraint for a generic, general purpose function like +std::min<T>. +
          2. +
          3. +They potentially throw an exception, even if T's less-than-operator +throws nothing. (And of course, less-than typically throws nothing.) +
          4. +
          5. +They are inconsistent with C++03 std::min and std::max. +Consider the subtle difference between const T& c1 = min(a,b); and +const T& c2 = min({a,b}); (c++std-lib-25265) +
          6. +
          7. +They do not conveniently support use cases that need to have a reference to the +minimum or maximum object itself, rather than just a copy. +
          8. +
          9. +They potentially perform badly: possibly O(n), when the arguments +themselves have a size of n. +
          10. +
          + +

          +In the future, this problem might be solvable by using an +initializer_list of const references, instead: +

          +
          const T& min(initializer_list<const T&>);
          +const T& max(initializer_list<const T&>);
          +pair<const T&, const T&> minmax(initializer_list<const T&>);
          +
          + +

          +It is unlikely that C++0x will support initializer_list<const +T&>, but technically it seems possible to add such a language +feature after C++0x (c++std-core-15428). +

          +

          +Variadic templates of min, max, and minmax, as +proposed by N2551 +(Sylvain Pion), do have some other advantages over initializer_list +overloads: +

          +
            +
          1. +It is likely that those variadic templates can be declared constexpr, +now that +CWG issue #991 is in drafting status. +
          2. +
          3. +They provide complete compile-time protection against accidentally passing zero +arguments. +
          4. +
          + +

          +Unfortunately, the variadic templates of min, max, and +minmax may still need further improvement, before having them in the +Standard Library. Especially the optional Compare parameter appears to +be a concern. So for this moment I recommend to keep both versions out of C++0x, +and postpone further discussion until after C++0x. +

          + +

          [ +2010 Pittsburgh: Discussed and the LWG still prefers the initializer list +solution of +N2772. +]

          + + + + +

          Rationale:

          Proposed resolution:

          +

          Discussion:

          +

          +The following example demonstrates code that would meet the guarantees of a +Forward Iterator, but only permits a single traversal of the underlying +sequence: +

          + +
          template< typename ForwardIterator>
          +struct bad_iterator {
          +  shared_ptr<ForwardIterator> impl;
          +
          +  bad_iterator( ForwardIterator iter ) {
          +     : impl{new ForwardIterator{iter} } 
          +     {
          +  }
          +
          +  auto operator*() const -> decltype(*ForwardIterator{}) {
          +     return **impl;
          +  }
          +
          +  auto operator->() const -> ForwardIterator {
          +     return *impl;
          +  }
          +
          +  auto operator==(bad_iterator const & rhs) {
          +     return impl == rhs.impl;
          +  }
          +
          +  auto operator++() {
          +     ++(*imp);
          +  }
          +  // other operations as necessary...
          +};
          +
          + +

          +Here, we use shared_ptr to wrap a forward iterator, so all iterators +constructed from the same original iterator share the same 'value', and +incrementing any one copy increments all others. +

          + +

          +There is a missing guarantee, expressed by the following code sequence +

          + +
          FwdIter x = seq.begin();  // obtain forward iterator from a sequence
          +FwdIter y = x;            // copy the iterator
          +assert(x == y);           // iterators must be the same
          +++x;                      // increment *just one* iterator
          +assert(x != y);           // iterators *must now be different*
          +++y;                      // increment the other iterator
          +assert(x == y);           // now the iterators must be the same again
          +
          + +

          +That inequality in the middle is an essential guarantee.

          + +

          +I have not yet found a perverse example that can meet this additional +constraint, and not meet the multi-pass expectations of a Forward Iterator +without also violating other Forward Iterator requirements. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +Currently, the 18.2 [support.types]/3 allows NULL to be any +null pointer constant. The footnote marks that 0 or 0L might be appropriate. +However, this definition also allows the implementation to define NULL +to be nullptr. This may lead to overload and conversion issues more +serious than with the C++98 version: +

          + +
          void f(void*);
          +void f(int);
          +
          +void g()
          +{
          + // calls f(int) if NULL is integral
          + // calls f(void*) if NULL is nullptr
          + f(NULL);
          +}
          +
          + +

          +Possible resolutions: +

          • +
          • +Leave it as is +
          • +
          + +

          +Making NULL nullptr would improve code correctness, and +breaking backwards compatibility shouldn't be a huge concern as NULL +shouldn't be used except as a null pointer constant anyways. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +Both overloads of async return future<typename +F::result_type> which requires that F has a nested type. This +prevents async being used with function pointers and makes the example +in 30.6.9 [futures.async] invalid. I believe this is unintentional. +

          + +

          +The proposed resolution also addresses editorial issues with the +launch_policy function parameter. +

          + +

          +For the first overload it is not sufficient to return future<typename +result_of<F(ArgTypes...)>::type>. Calling async(launch::xxx, +foo, bar) performs argument deduction on both async overloads, +which for the first overload attempts to instantiate result_of<launch(F, +ArgTypes...)>, which is invalid. SFINAE must be used to prevent that. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +Currently, the library lacks a convenient way to provide a hash function that +can be used with the provided unordered containers to allow the usage of non +trivial element types. +

          + +

          +While we can easily declare an +

          + +
          std::unordered_set<int>
          +
          + +

          +or +

          + +
          std::unordered_set<std::string>
          +
          + +

          +we have no easy way to declare an unordered_set for a user defined +type. IMO, this is a big obstacle to use unordered containers in practice. Note +that in Java, the wide usage of HashMap is based on the fact that there +is always a default hash function provided. +

          + +

          +Of course, a default hash function implies the risk to provide poor hash +functions. But often even poor hash functions are good enough. +

          + +

          +While I really would like to see a default hash function, I don't propose it +here because this would probably introduce a discussion that's too big for this +state of C++0x. +

          + +

          +However, I strongly suggest at least to provide a convenience variadic template +function make_hash<>() to allow an easy definition of a (possibly +poor) hash function. +

          + +

          +As a consequence for a user-defined type such as +

          + +
          class Customer {
          +   friend class CustomerHash;
          +   private:
          +     string firstname;
          +     string lastname;
          +     long   no;
          +   ...
          + };
          +
          + +

          +would allow to specify: +

          + +
          class CustomerHash : public std::unary_function<Customer, std::size_t>
          +{
          +  public:
          +    std::size_t operator() (const Customer& c) const  {
          +       return make_hash(c.firstname,c.lastname,c.no);
          +    }
          +};
          +
          + +

          +instead of: +

          + +
          class CustomerHash : public std::unary_function<Customer, std::size_t>
          +{
          +  public:
          +    std::size_t operator() (const Customer& c) const  {
          +       return std::hash<std::string>()(c.firstname) +
          +              std::hash<std::string>()(c.lastname) +
          +              std::hash<long>()(c.no);
          +    }
          +};
          +
          + +

          +Note that, in principle, we can either specify that +

          + +
          +make_hash returns the sum of a call of +std::hash<T>()(x) for each argument x of type +T +
          + +

          +or we can specify that +

          + +
          +make_hash provides a hash value for each argument, for which a +std::hash() function is provided +
          + +

          +with the possible note that the hash value may be poor or only a good hash value +if the ranges of all passed arguments is equally distributed. +

          + +

          +For my convenience, I propose wording that describes +the concrete implementation. +

          +

          +Hash support based on ownership sharing should be +supplied for shared_ptr and weak_ptr. +For two shared_ptr objects p and q, two distinct +equivalence relations can be defined. One is based on +equivalence of pointer values, which is derived from the +expression p.get() == q.get() (hereafter called address based +equivalence relation), the other is based on +equivalence of ownership sharing, which is derived from +the expression !p.owner_before(q) && !q.owner_before(p) +(hereafter called ownership-based equivalence relation). +These two equivalence relations are independent in +general. For example, a shared_ptr object created by the +constructor of the signature shared_ptr(shared_ptr<U> +const &, T *) could reveal a difference between these two +relations. Therefore, hash support based on each +equivalence relation should be supplied for shared_ptr. +However, while the standard library provides the hash +support for address-based one (20.9.11.6 paragraph 2), it +lacks the hash support for ownership-based one. In +addition, associative containers work well in combination +with the shared_ptr's ownership-based comparison but +unordered associative containers don't. This is +inconsistent. +

          +

          +For the case of weak_ptr, hash support for the ownership based +equivalence relation can be safely defined on +weak_ptrs, and even on expired ones. The absence of +hash support for the ownership-based equivalence +relation is fatal, especially for expired weak_ptrs. And the +absence of such hash support precludes some quite +effective use-cases, e.g. erasing the unordered_map entry +of an expired weak_ptr key from a customized deleter +supplied to shared_ptrs. +

          +

          +Hash support for the ownership-based equivalence +relation cannot be provided by any user-defined manner +because information about ownership sharing is not +available to users at all. Therefore, the only way to provide +ownership-based hash support is to offer it intrusively by +the standard library. +

          +

          +As far as we know, such hash support is implementable. +Typical implementation of such hash function could return +the hash value of the pointer of the counter object that is +internally managed by shared_ptr and weak_ptr. +

          +
          +

          +These functions satisfy the following +requirements. Let p and q be objects of either +shared_ptr or weak_ptr, H be a hypothetical +function object type that satisfies the hash +requirements ([hash.requirements], 20.2.4) and h be an object of the +type H.

          +vector<bool> iterators are not random access iterators +because their reference type is a special class, and not +bool &. All standard libary operations taking iterators +should treat this iterator as if it was a random access iterator, rather +than a simple input iterator. +

          + +

          [ +Resolution proposed in ballot comment +]

          + +

          +Either revise the iterator requirements to support proxy iterators +(restoring functionality that was lost when the Concept facility was +removed) or add an extra paragraph to the vector<bool> +specification requiring the library to treat vector<bool> +iterators as-if they were random access iterators, despite having the wrong +reference type. +

          + +

          [ +Rapperswil Review +]

          + +

          +The consensus at Rapperswil is that it is too late for full support for +proxy iterators, but requiring the library to respect vector&;t;bool> +iterators as-if they were random access would be preferable to flagging +this container as deliberately incompatible with standard library algorithms. +

          +
          +[Note All functions in the library that take a pair of iterators to +denote a range shall treat vector<bool> iterators as-if they were +random access iterators, even though the reference type is not a +true reference.-- end note] +

          [ +2010-11 Batavia: +]

          + +
          +Closed as NAD Future, because the current iterator categories cannot correctly describe +vector<bool>::iterator. But saying that they are Random Access Iterators +is also incorrect, because it is not too hard to create a corresponding test that fails. +We should deal with the more general proxy iterator problem in the future, and see no +benefit to take a partial workaround specific to vector<bool> now. +

          +Rationale: Happens-before is defined in 1.10p11 in a way +that (deliberately) does not make it explicitly transitively +closed.

          At various points in the standard new edges are added to +happens-before, for example 27.2.3:2 adds happens-before edges between +writes and reads from a stream:

          If one thread makes a library call a that writes a value to a +stream and, as a result, another thread reads this value from the +stream through a library call b such that this does not result in a +data race, then a happens before b.

Adding edges to happens-before +directly, as in 27.2.3:2, does not provide transitivity with +sequenced-before or any other existing happens-before edge. This lack +of transitivity seems to be unintentional. In order to achieve +transitivity we suggest each edge be added to +inter-thread-happens-before as a synchronises-with edge (as per +conversation with Hans Boehm). In the standard, each use of the words +"happens-before" should be replaced with the words "synchronizes-with" +in the following sentences:

          [ +2010 Batavia +]

          + +

          +The Concurrency subgroup reviewed this, and deemed it NAD according to +29.6 [atomics.types.operations] paragraph 2, bullet 4. +

          + +

          Rationale:

          The working paper is correct as written. + + + +

          Proposed resolution:

          +
            +
          1. Change 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] p. 9 as indicated: +
            void atomic_store(volatile A* object, C desired);
            +void atomic_store(A* object, C desired);
            +void atomic_store_explicit(volatile A *object, C desired, memory_order order);

            +void A::store(C desired, memory_order order = memory_order_seq_cst);
            +
            +8 Requires: The order argument shall not be memory_order_consume, memory_order_acquire, nor +memory_order_acq_rel. +

            +9 Effects: Atomically replaces the value pointed to by object or by this with the value of desired. +Memory is affected according to the value of order. If the program does not specify an order, it shall be +memory_order_seq_cst. +

            +
          2. +
          3. Change 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] p. 13 as indicated: +

            +12 Requires: The order argument shall not be memory_order_release nor memory_order_acq_rel. +

            +13 Effects: Memory is affected according to the value of order. If the program does not specify an order, it shall be +memory_order_seq_cst. +

            +14 Returns: Atomically returns the value pointed to by object or by this. +

            +
          4. +
          5. Change 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] p. 17 as indicated: +
            C atomic_exchange(volatile A* object, C desired);
            +C atomic_exchange(A* object, C desired);

            +C A::exchange(C desired, memory_order order = memory_order_seq_cst);
            +
            +17 Effects: Atomically replaces the value pointed to by object or by this with desired. Memory +is affected according to the value of order. These operations are atomic read-modify-write operations +(1.10). If the program does not specify an order, it shall be memory_order_seq_cst. +

            +18 Returns: Atomically returns the value pointed to by object or by this immediately before the effects. +

            +
          6. +
          7. Change 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] p. 20 as indicated: +
            bool atomic_compare_exchange_weak(volatile A* object, C * expected, C desired);
            +bool atomic_compare_exchange_weak(A* object, C * expected, C desired);

            +  memory_order order = memory_order_seq_cst);
            +
            +19 Requires: The failure argument shall not be memory_order_release nor memory_order_acq_rel. +The failure argument shall be no stronger than the success argument. +

            +20 Effects: Atomically, compares the contents of the memory pointed to by object or by this for equality +with that in expected, and if true, replaces the contents of the memory pointed to by object or by +this with that in desired, and if false, updates the contents of the memory in expected with the +contents of the memory pointed to by object or by this. Further, if the comparison is true, memory +is affected according to the value of success, and if the comparison is false, memory is affected +according to the value of failure. When only one memory_order argument is supplied, the value of +success is order, and the value of failure is order except that a value of +memory_order_acq_rel shall be replaced by the value memory_order_acquire and a value of +memory_order_release shall be replaced by the value memory_order_relaxed. If +the program does not specify an order, it shall be memory_order_seq_cst. If the operation returns true, +these operations are atomic read-modify-write operations (1.10). Otherwise, these operations are atomic load operations. +

          + +Specifications of unlock member functions and unlock +mutex requirements are inconsistent wrt to exceptions and +pre- and postconditions. + +

          [ +Resolution proposed by ballot comment: +]

          + +
          +unlock should specifiy the precondition that the +current thread "owns the lock", this will make calls +without holding the locks "undefined behavior". +unlock in [mutex.requirements] should either be +noexcept(true) or be allowed to throw +system_error like unique_lock::unlock, or the latter +should be nothrow(true) and have the precondition +owns == true. +Furthermore unique_lock's postcondition is wrong +in the case of a recursive mutex where owns +might stay true, when it is not the last unlock +needed to be called. +

          + +mutex and recursive_mutex should have an is_locked() +member function. is_locked allows a user to test a lock +without acquiring it and can be used to implement a lightweight +try_try_lock. + +

          [ +Resolution proposed by ballot comment: +]

          +Add a member function: +
          bool is_locked() const;

          +to std::mutex and std::recursive_mutex. These +functions return true if the current thread would +not be able to obtain a mutex. These functions do +not synchronize with anything (and, thus, can +avoid a memory fence). +

          +Both future and shared_future specify that calling most +member functions on an object for which valid() == false +produces undefined behavior. There is no such statement +for atomic_future. +

          +While applying the wording, I notice that 30.6.7 [futures.shared_future]/3 does +speak of the move-assignment operator, and not of the copy-assignment operator. +atomic_future obviously needs this to be true for the copy-assignment operator, +but I strongly assume that shared_future needs to mention both special member +assignment operators in this paragraph.

          The synopsis of the header <utility> in 20.3 [utility] +lists the complete set of equality and relational operators for pair +but the section describing the template and the operators only describes +operator==() and operator<(), and it fails to mention +any requirements on the template arguments. The remaining operators are +not mentioned at all. +

          + +

          [ +2009-09-27 Alisdair reopens. +]

          + + +
          +

          +The issue is a lack of wording specifying the semantics of std::pair +relational operators. The rationale is that this is covered by +catch-all wording in the relops component, and that as relops directly +precedes pair in the document this is an easy connection to make. +

          + +

          +Reading the current working paper I make two observations: +

          + +
            +
          1. +relops no longer immediately precedes pair in the order of +specification. However, even if it did, there is a lot of pair +specification itself between the (apparently) unrelated relops and the +relational operators for pair. (The catch-all still requires +operator== and operator< to be specified +explicitly) +
          2. + +
          3. +No other library component relies on the catch-all clause. The following +all explicitly document all six relational operators, usually in a +manner that could have deferred to the relops clause. +
          4. +
          + +
          tuple
          +unique_ptr
          +duration
          +time_point

          +reverse_iterator 
          +regex submatch
          +thread::id
          +
          + +

          +The container components provide their own (equivalent) definition in +23.2.1 [container.requirements.general] Table 90 -- Container +requirements and do so do not defer to relops. +

          + +

          +Shared_ptr explicitly documents operator!= and does +not supply the other 3 missing operators +(>,>=,<=) so does not meet the +reqirements of the relops clause. +

          + +

          +Weak_ptr only supports operator< so would not be +covered by relops. +

          + +

          +At the very least I would request a note pointing to the relops clause +we rely on to provide this definition. If this route is taken, I would +recommend reducing many of the above listed clauses to a similar note +rather than providing redundant specification. +

          + +

          +My preference would be to supply the 4 missing specifications consistent +with the rest of the library. +

          +Returns: !(y < x) +

          + + +

          Rationale:

          +

          20.3.1 [operators] paragraph 10 already specifies the semantics. +That paragraph says that, if declarations of operator!=, operator>, +operator<=, and operator>= appear without definitions, they are +defined as specified in 20.3.1 [operators]. There should be no user +confusion, since that paragraph happens to immediately precede the +specification of pair.

          Discussion:

          +

          +The class template std::pair defines a template ctor (20.2.2, p4) but +no template assignment operator. This may lead to inefficient code since +assigning an object of pair<C, D> to pair<A, B> +where the types C and D are distinct from but convertible to +A and B, respectively, results in a call to the template copy +ctor to construct an unnamed temporary of type pair<A, B> +followed by an ordinary (perhaps implicitly defined) assignment operator, +instead of just a straight assignment. +

          + + +

          Proposed resolution:

          +

          +Add the following declaration to the definition of std::pair: +

          +
              template<class U, class V>
          +    pair& operator=(const pair<U, V> &p);
          +
          +

          +And also add a paragraph describing the effects of the function template to the +end of 20.2.2: +

          +
              template<class U, class V>
          +    pair& operator=(const pair<U, V> &p);

          Discussion:

          -23.1.1, p3 along with Table 67 specify as a prerequisite for a.erase(q) -that q must be a valid dereferenceable iterator into the sequence a. -

          +The requirements specified in Stage 2 and reiterated in the rationale +of DR 221 (and echoed again in DR 303) specify that num_get<charT>:: +do_get() compares characters on the stream against the widened elements +of "012...abc...ABCX+-" +

          + +

          +An implementation is required to allow programs to instantiate the num_get +template on any charT that satisfies the requirements on a user-defined +character type. These requirements do not include the ability of the +character type to be equality comparable (the char_traits template must +be used to perform tests for equality). Hence, the num_get template cannot +be implemented to support any arbitrary character type. The num_get template +must either make the assumption that the character type is equality-comparable +(as some popular implementations do), or it may use char_traits<charT> to do +the comparisons (some other popular implementations do that). This diversity +of approaches makes it difficult to write portable programs that attempt to +instantiate the num_get template on user-defined types. +

          + +

          [Kona: the heart of the problem is that we're theoretically + supposed to use traits classes for all fundamental character + operations like assignment and comparison, but facets don't have + traits parameters. This is a fundamental design flaw and it + appears all over the place, not just in this one place. It's not + clear what the correct solution is, but a thorough review of facets + and traits is in order. The LWG considered and rejected the + possibility of changing numeric facets to use narrowing instead of + widening. This may be a good idea for other reasons (see issue + 459), but it doesn't solve the problem raised by this + issue. Whether we use widen or narrow the num_get facet + still has no idea which traits class the user wants to use for + the comparison, because only streams, not facets, are passed traits + classes. The standard does not require that two different + traits classes with the same char_type must necessarily + have the same behavior.]

          + + +

          Informally, one possibility: require that some of the basic +character operations, such as eq, lt, +and assign, must behave the same way for all traits classes +with the same char_type. If we accept that limitation on +traits classes, then the facet could reasonably be required to +use char_traits<charT>.

          +

          [ +2009-07 Frankfurt +]

          + + +

          -However, 21.3.5.5, p5 describing string::erase(p) only requires that -p be a valid iterator. +There was general agreement that the standard only needs to specify the +behavior when the character type is char or wchar_t.

          -

          -This may be interepreted as a relaxation of the general requirement, -which is most likely not the intent. +Beman: we don't need to worry about C++1x because there is a non-zero +possibility that we would have a replacement facility for iostreams that +would solve these problems. +

          +

          +We need to change the following sentence in [locale.category], paragraph +6 to specify that C is char and wchar_t: +

          +

          +"A template formal parameter with name C represents the set of all +possible specializations on a parameter that satisfies the requirements +for a character on which any member of the iostream components can be +instantiated." +

          +

          +We also need to specify in 27 that the basic character operations, such +as eq, lt, and assign use std::char_traits. +

      3. +
      4. +

        +Add the following sentence to the end of 22.4.5 [category.time]/1: +

        -

        Rationale:

        -

        The current basic_stringbuf description is over-constrained in such -a way as to prohibit vendors from making this the high-performance -in-memory stream it was meant to be. The fundamental problem is that -the pointers: eback(), gptr(), egptr(), pbase(), pptr(), epptr() are -observable from a derived client, and the current description -restricts the range [pbase(), epptr()) from being grown geometrically. -This change allows, but does not require, geometric growth of this -range.

        +
        +[..] Their members use [..] , to determine formatting details. +[Note: Implementations are encouraged but not required to use the +char_traits<charT> functions for all comparisons and assignments +of characters of type charT that do +not belong to the set of required specializations - end note]. +
        +
      5. -

        Backwards compatibility issues: These changes will break code that -derives from basic_stringbuf, observes epptr(), and depends upon -[pbase(), epptr()) growing by one character on each call to overflow() -(i.e. test suites). Otherwise there are no backwards compatibility -issues.

        - -

        27.7.1.1/2: The non-normative note is non-binding, and if it were -binding, would be over specification. The recommended change focuses -on the important observable fact.

        - -

        27.7.1.1/3: This change does two things: 1. It describes exactly -what must happen in terms of the sequences. The terms "input -sequence" and "output sequence" are not well defined. 2. It -introduces a common extension: open with app or ate mode. I concur -with issue 238 that paragraph 4 is both wrong and unnecessary.

        - -

        27.7.1.2/1: This change is the crux of the efficiency issue. The -resultant basic_string is not dependent upon epptr(), and thus -implementors are free to grow the underlying buffer geometrically -during overflow() *and* place epptr() at the end of that buffer.

        - -

        27.7.1.2/2: Made consistent with the proposed 27.7.1.1/3.

        - -

        27.7.1.3/1: Clarifies that characters written to the stream beyond -the initially specified string are available for reading in an i/o -basic_streambuf.

        • +
        +
      7. -

        27.7.1.3/12: Restricting the positioning to [xbeg, xend) is no -longer allowable since [pbase(), epptr()) may now contain -uninitialized characters. Positioning is only allowable over the -initialized range.

    Discussion:

    -Is "const std::ctype<char>" a valid template argument to has_facet, use_facet, -and the locale template ctor? And if so, does it designate the same Facet as -the non-const "std::ctype<char>?" What about "volatile std::ctype<char>?" -Different implementations behave differently: some fail to compile, others -accept such types but behave inconsistently. +23.1.1, p3 along with Table 67 specify as a prerequisite for a.erase(q) +that q must be a valid dereferenceable iterator into the sequence a.

    +

    +This may be interepreted as a relaxation of the general requirement, +which is most likely not the intent. +

    -

    Template parameters in this clause which are required to be facets -are those named Facet in declarations. A program that passes a type -that is not a facet, or a type that refers to volatile-qualified -facet, as an (explicit or deduced) template parameter to a locale -function expecting a facet, is ill-formed. A const-qualified facet is -a valid template argument to any locale function that expects a Facet -template parameter.

    Discussion:

    +

    +The standard fails to specify the behavior of valarray::operator[](slice) +and other valarray subset operations when they are passed an "invalid" +slice object, i.e., either a slice that doesn't make sense at all (e.g., +slice (0, 1, 0) or one that doesn't specify a valid subset of the valarray +object (e.g., slice (2, 1, 1) for a valarray of size 1). +

    +

    [Kona: the LWG believes that invalid slices should invoke + undefined behavior. Valarrays are supposed to be designed for high + performance, so we don't want to require specific checking. We + need wording to express this decision.]

    -

    Section 23.2.3 [sequence.reqmts], paragraphs 9-11, fixed up the problem -noticed with statements like:

    -
    vector<int> v(10, 1);
    -
    -

    The intent of the above statement was to construct with:

    -
    vector(size_type, const value_type&);
    -
    +

    [ +Bellevue: +]

    -

    but early implementations failed to compile as they bound to:

    -
    template <class InputIterator>
    -vector(InputIterator f, InputIterator l);
    -
    -

    instead.

    -

    Paragraphs 9-11 say that if InputIterator is an integral type, then the -member template constructor will have the same effect as:

    -
    vector<static_cast<size_type>(f), static_cast<value_type>(l));
    -
    -

    (and similarly for the other member template functions of sequences).

    +
    +Please note that the standard also fails to specify the behavior of +slice_array and gslice_array in the valid case. Bill Plauger will +endeavor to provide revised wording for slice_array and gslice_array. +

    There is also a note that describes one implementation technique:

    -

    - One way that sequence implementors can satisfy this requirement is to - specialize the member template for every integral type. -

    This might look something like:

    -
    template <class T>

    -{
    -     typedef unsigned size_type;

    Label this solution 'A'.

    -

    The standard also says:

    -

    - Less cumbersome implementation techniques also exist. -

    + +

    Proposed resolution:

    -A popular technique is to not specialize as above, but instead catch -every call with the member template, detect the type of InputIterator, -and then redirect to the correct logic. Something like: +Replace 26.6.2.4 [valarray.sub], with the following:

    -
    -
    template <class T>
    -template <class I>
    -vector<T>::vector(I f, I l)
    -{
    -     choose_init(f, l, int2type<is_integral<I>::value>());

    -template <class I>
    -vector<T>::choose_init(I f, I l, int2type<false>)
    -{
    -    // construct with iterators
    -}
    +
    +

    +The member operator is overloaded to provide several ways to select +sequences of elements from among those controlled by *this. +Each of these operations returns a subset of the array. The +const-qualified versions return this subset as a new valarray. The +non-const versions return a class template object which has reference +semantics to the original array, working in conjunction with various +overloads of operator= (and other assigning operators) to allow +selective replacement (slicing) of the controlled sequence. In each case +the selected element(s) must exist. +

    -template <class T> -template <class I> -vector<T>::choose_init(I f, I l, int2type<true>) -{ - size_type sz = static_cast<size_type>(f); - value_type v = static_cast<value_type>(l); - // construct with sz,v -} +
    valarray<T> operator[](slice slicearr) const; 
     
    -
    -

    Label this solution 'B'.

    +This function returns an object of class valarray<T> +containing those elements of the controlled sequence designated by +slicearr. [Example: +

    -

    Both of these solutions solve the case the standard specifically -mentions:

    -
    vector<int> v(10, 1);  // ok, vector size 10, initialized to 1
    +
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16); 
    +valarray<char> v1("ABCDE", 5); 
    +v0[slice(2, 5, 3)] = v1; 
    +// v0 == valarray<char>("abAdeBghCjkDmnEp", 16)
    +
    +

    +end example] +

    +
    + +
    valarray<T> operator[](slice slicearr); 
     
    +

    -However, (and here is the problem), the two solutions have different -behavior in some cases where the value_type of the sequence is not an -integral type. For example consider: +This function selects those elements of the controlled sequence +designated by slicearr. [Example:

    -
         pair<char, char>                     p('a', 'b');
    -     vector<vector<pair<char, char> > >   d('a', 'b');
    +
    +
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16); 
    +valarray<char> v1("ABCDE", 5); 
    +v0[slice(2, 5, 3)] = v1; 
    +// v0 == valarray<char>("abAdeBghCjkDmnEp", 16)
     

    -The second line of this snippet is likely an error. Solution A catches -the error and refuses to compile. The reason is that there is no -specialization of the member template constructor that looks like: +end example]

    -
    template <>
    -template <>
    -vector<vector<pair<char, char> > >::vector(char, char) { ... }
    +
    + +
    valarray<T> operator[](const gslice& gslicearr) const; 
     
    +

    -So the expression binds to the unspecialized member template -constructor, and then fails (compile time) because char is not an -InputIterator. +This function returns an object of class valarray<T> +containing those elements of the controlled sequence designated by +gslicearr. [Example:

    +
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16); 
    +const size_t lv[] = {2, 3}; 
    +const size_t dv[] = {7, 2}; 
    +const valarray<size_t> len(lv, 2), str(dv, 2); 
    +// v0[gslice(3, len, str)] returns 
    +// valarray<char>("dfhkmo", 6)
    +

    -Solution B compiles the above example though. 'a' is casted to an -unsigned integral type and used to size the outer vector. 'b' is -static casted to the inner vector using it's explicit constructor: +end example]

    - -
    explicit vector(size_type n);
    +
    + +
    gslice_array<T> operator[](const gslice& gslicearr); 
     
    +

    -and so you end up with a static_cast<size_type>('a') by -static_cast<size_type>('b') matrix. +This function selects those elements of the controlled sequence +designated by gslicearr. [Example:

    +
    valarray<char> v0("abcdefghijklmnop", 16); 
    +valarray<char> v1("ABCDEF", 6); 
    +const size_t lv[] = {2, 3}; 
    +const size_t dv[] = {7, 2}; 
    +const valarray<size_t> len(lv, 2), str(dv, 2); 
    +v0[gslice(3, len, str)] = v1; 
    +// v0 == valarray<char>("abcAeBgCijDlEnFp", 16)
    +

    -It is certainly possible that this is what the coder intended. But the -explicit qualifier on the inner vector has been thwarted at any rate. +end example]

    +
    + +
    valarray<T> operator[](const valarray<bool>& boolarr) const; 
    +
    +

    -The standard is not clear whether the expression: +This function returns an object of class valarray<T> +containing those elements of the controlled sequence designated by +boolarr. [Example:

    There are still other techniques for implementing the requirements of -paragraphs 9-11, namely the "restricted template technique" (e.g. -enable_if). This technique is the most compact and easy way of coding -the requirements, and has the behavior of #2 (rejects the above -expression). +

    431. Swapping containers with unequal allocators

    Discussion:

    +

    Clause 20.2.5 [allocator.requirements] paragraph 4 says that implementations + are permitted to supply containers that are unable to cope with + allocator instances and that container implementations may assume + that all instances of an allocator type compare equal. We gave + implementers this latitude as a temporary hack, and eventually we + want to get rid of it. What happens when we're dealing with + allocators that don't compare equal? +

    + +

    In particular: suppose that v1 and v2 are both + objects of type vector<int, my_alloc> and that + v1.get_allocator() != v2.get_allocator(). What happens if + we write v1.swap(v2)? Informally, three possibilities:

    + +

    1. This operation is illegal. Perhaps we could say that an + implementation is required to check and to throw an exception, or + perhaps we could say it's undefined behavior.

    +

    2. The operation performs a slow swap (i.e. using three + invocations of operator=, leaving each allocator with its + original container. This would be an O(N) operation.

    +

    3. The operation swaps both the vectors' contents and their + allocators. This would be an O(1) operation. That is:

    +
    +
        my_alloc a1(...);
    +    my_alloc a2(...);
    +    assert(a1 != a2);
    +
    +    vector<int, my_alloc> v1(a1);
    +    vector<int, my_alloc> v2(a2);
    +    assert(a1 == v1.get_allocator());
    +    assert(a2 == v2.get_allocator());
    +
    +    v1.swap(v2);
    +    assert(a1 == v2.get_allocator());
    +    assert(a2 == v1.get_allocator());

      27.7.1.3 par 8 says:

      +

      +Notes: The function can make a write position available only if + ( mode & ios_base::out) != 0. To make a write position + available, the function reallocates (or initially allocates) an + array object with a sufficient number of elements to hold the + current array object (if any), plus one additional write position. + If ( mode & ios_base::in) != 0, the function alters the read end + pointer egptr() to point just past the new write position (as + does the write end pointer epptr()). +

      + +

      +The sentences "plus one additional write position." and especially + "(as does the write end pointer epptr())" COULD by interpreted + (and is interpreted by at least my library vendor) as: +

Characters can +be initialized either through writing to the stream, or by +constructing the basic_stringbuf with a basic_string, or by calling +the str(basic_string) member function. In the case of calling the +str(basic_string) member function, all characters initialized prior to +the call are now considered uninitialized (except for those +characters re-initialized by the new basic_string).

      [post-Kona: Howard provided wording. At Kona the LWG agreed that + something along these lines was a good idea, but the original + proposed resolution didn't say enough about the effect of various + member functions on the underlying character sequences.]

      + + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      The current basic_stringbuf description is over-constrained in such +a way as to prohibit vendors from making this the high-performance +in-memory stream it was meant to be. The fundamental problem is that +the pointers: eback(), gptr(), egptr(), pbase(), pptr(), epptr() are +observable from a derived client, and the current description +restricts the range [pbase(), epptr()) from being grown geometrically. +This change allows, but does not require, geometric growth of this +range.

      + +

      Backwards compatibility issues: These changes will break code that +derives from basic_stringbuf, observes epptr(), and depends upon +[pbase(), epptr()) growing by one character on each call to overflow() +(i.e. test suites). Otherwise there are no backwards compatibility +issues.

      + +

      27.7.1.1/2: The non-normative note is non-binding, and if it were +binding, would be over specification. The recommended change focuses +on the important observable fact.

      + +

      27.7.1.1/3: This change does two things: 1. It describes exactly +what must happen in terms of the sequences. The terms "input +sequence" and "output sequence" are not well defined. 2. It +introduces a common extension: open with app or ate mode. I concur +with issue 238 that paragraph 4 is both wrong and unnecessary.

      + +

      27.7.1.2/1: This change is the crux of the efficiency issue. The +resultant basic_string is not dependent upon epptr(), and thus +implementors are free to grow the underlying buffer geometrically +during overflow() *and* place epptr() at the end of that buffer.

      + +

      27.7.1.2/2: Made consistent with the proposed 27.7.1.1/3.

      + +

      27.7.1.3/1: Clarifies that characters written to the stream beyond +the initially specified string are available for reading in an i/o +basic_streambuf.

      + +

      27.7.1.3/9: Made normative by removing "Notes:", and removed the +trailing parenthetical comment concerning epptr().

      + +

      27.7.1.3/12: Restricting the positioning to [xbeg, xend) is no +longer allowable since [pbase(), epptr()) may now contain +uninitialized characters. Positioning is only allowable over the +initialized range.

      In order to allow callers to specify no template arguments at all, just the +first one (charT), or the first 2 (charT and traits), in addition to all +three template arguments, add the following three overloads to both the +interface (declarations only) of the class template bitset as well as to +section 23.3.5.2, immediately after p34, the Returns clause of the existing +to_string() member function template:

      + +
          template <class charT, class traits>
      +    basic_string<charT, traits, allocator<charT> >
      +    to_string () const;
      +
      +    -34.1- Returns: to_string<charT, traits, allocator<charT> >().
      +
      +    template <class charT>
      +    basic_string<charT, char_traits<charT>, allocator<charT> >
      +    to_string () const;
      +
      +    -34.2- Returns: to_string<charT, char_traits<charT>, allocator<charT> >().
      +
      +    basic_string<char, char_traits<char>, allocator<char> >
      +    to_string () const;
      +
      +    -34.3- Returns: to_string<char, char_traits<char>, allocator<char> >().
      +
      + +

      Discussion:

      + +

      +It has been pointed out that the proposed resolution in DR 25 may not be +quite up to snuff:
      +http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2003-09/msg00147.html +http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/lwg-defects.html#25
      +

      + +

      +It looks like Petur is right. The complete corrected text is copied below. +I think we may have have been confused by the reference to 22.2.2.2.2 and +the subsequent description of `n' which actually talks about the second +argument to sputn(), not about the number of fill characters to pad with. +

      + +

      +So the question is: was the original text correct? If the intent was to +follow classic iostreams then it most likely wasn't, since setting width() +to less than the length of the string doesn't truncate it on output. This +is also the behavior of most implementations (except for SGI's standard +iostreams where the operator does truncate). +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      Change the text in 21.3.7.9, p4 from

      +

      + If bool(k) is true, inserts characters as if by calling + os.rdbuf()->sputn(str.data(), n), padding as described in stage 3 + of lib.facet.num.put.virtuals, where n is the larger of os.width() + and str.size(); +

      +

      to

      +

      + If bool(k) is true, determines padding as described in + lib.facet.num.put.virtuals, and then inserts the resulting + sequence of characters seq as if by calling + os.rdbuf()->sputn(seq, n), where n is the larger of + os.width() and str.size(); +

      + +

      [Kona: it appears that neither the original wording, DR25, nor the + proposed resolution, is quite what we want. We want to say that + the string will be output, padded to os.width() if necessary. We + don't want to duplicate the padding rules in clause 22, because + they're complicated, but we need to be careful because they weren't + quite written with quite this case in mind. We need to say what + the character sequence is, and then defer to clause 22. Post-Kona: + Benjamin provided wording.]

      Discussion:

      +

      +Is "const std::ctype<char>" a valid template argument to has_facet, use_facet, +and the locale template ctor? And if so, does it designate the same Facet as +the non-const "std::ctype<char>?" What about "volatile std::ctype<char>?" +Different implementations behave differently: some fail to compile, others +accept such types but behave inconsistently. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      Change 22.1.1.1.2, p1 to read:

      + +

      Template parameters in this clause which are required to be facets +are those named Facet in declarations. A program that passes a type +that is not a facet, or a type that refers to volatile-qualified +facet, as an (explicit or deduced) template parameter to a locale +function expecting a facet, is ill-formed. A const-qualified facet is +a valid template argument to any locale function that expects a Facet +template parameter.

      +

      Discussion:

      + +

      Section 23.2.3 [sequence.reqmts], paragraphs 9-11, fixed up the problem +noticed with statements like:

      +
      vector<int> v(10, 1);
      +
      + +

      The intent of the above statement was to construct with:

      +
      vector(size_type, const value_type&);
      +
      + +

      but early implementations failed to compile as they bound to:

      +
      template <class InputIterator>
      +vector(InputIterator f, InputIterator l);
      +
      +

      instead.

      + +

      Paragraphs 9-11 say that if InputIterator is an integral type, then the +member template constructor will have the same effect as:

      +
      vector<static_cast<size_type>(f), static_cast<value_type>(l));
      +
      +

      (and similarly for the other member template functions of sequences).

      + +

      There is also a note that describes one implementation technique:

      +

      + One way that sequence implementors can satisfy this requirement is to + specialize the member template for every integral type. +

      + +

      This might look something like:

      +
      +
      template <class T>
      +struct vector
      +{
      +     typedef unsigned size_type;
      +
      +     explicit vector(size_type) {}
      +     vector(size_type, const T&) {}
      +
      +     template <class I>
      +     vector(I, I);
      +
      +     // ...
      +};
      +
      +template <class T>
      +template <class I>
      +vector<T>::vector(I, I) { ... }
      +
      +template <>
      +template <>
      +vector<int>::vector(int, int) { ... }
      +
      +template <>
      +template <>
      +vector<int>::vector(unsigned, unsigned) { ... }
      +
      +//  ...
      +
      +
      + +

      Label this solution 'A'.

      + +

      The standard also says:

      +

      + Less cumbersome implementation techniques also exist. +

      +

      +A popular technique is to not specialize as above, but instead catch +every call with the member template, detect the type of InputIterator, +and then redirect to the correct logic. Something like: +

      +
      +
      template <class T>
      +template <class I>
      +vector<T>::vector(I f, I l)
      +{
      +     choose_init(f, l, int2type<is_integral<I>::value>());
      +}
      +
      +template <class T>
      +template <class I>
      +vector<T>::choose_init(I f, I l, int2type<false>)
      +{
      +    // construct with iterators
      +}
      +
      +template <class T>
      +template <class I>
      +vector<T>::choose_init(I f, I l, int2type<true>)
      +{
      +    size_type sz = static_cast<size_type>(f);
      +    value_type v = static_cast<value_type>(l);
      +    // construct with sz,v
      +}
      +
      +
      + +

      Label this solution 'B'.

      + +

      Both of these solutions solve the case the standard specifically +mentions:

      +
      vector<int> v(10, 1);  // ok, vector size 10, initialized to 1
      +
      + +

      +However, (and here is the problem), the two solutions have different +behavior in some cases where the value_type of the sequence is not an +integral type. For example consider: +

      +
           pair<char, char>                     p('a', 'b');
      +     vector<vector<pair<char, char> > >   d('a', 'b');
      +
      +

      +The second line of this snippet is likely an error. Solution A catches +the error and refuses to compile. The reason is that there is no +specialization of the member template constructor that looks like: +

      +
      template <>
      +template <>
      +vector<vector<pair<char, char> > >::vector(char, char) { ... }
      +
      + +

      +So the expression binds to the unspecialized member template +constructor, and then fails (compile time) because char is not an +InputIterator. +

      + +

      +Solution B compiles the above example though. 'a' is casted to an +unsigned integral type and used to size the outer vector. 'b' is +static casted to the inner vector using it's explicit constructor: +

      + +
      explicit vector(size_type n);
      +
      + +

      +and so you end up with a static_cast<size_type>('a') by +static_cast<size_type>('b') matrix. +

      + +

      +It is certainly possible that this is what the coder intended. But the +explicit qualifier on the inner vector has been thwarted at any rate. +

      + +

      +The standard is not clear whether the expression: +

      + +
           vector<vector<pair<char, char> > >   d('a', 'b');
      +
      + +

      +(and similar expressions) are: +

      + +
        +
      1. undefined behavior.
      2. +
      3. illegal and must be rejected.
      4. +
      5. legal and must be accepted.
      6. +
      + +

      My preference is listed in the order presented.

      + +

      There are still other techniques for implementing the requirements of +paragraphs 9-11, namely the "restricted template technique" (e.g. +enable_if). This technique is the most compact and easy way of coding +the requirements, and has the behavior of #2 (rejects the above +expression). +

      + +

      +Choosing 1 would allow all implementation techniques I'm aware of. +Choosing 2 would allow only solution 'A' and the enable_if technique. +Choosing 3 would allow only solution 'B'. +

      + +

      +Possible wording for a future standard if we wanted to actively reject +the expression above would be to change "static_cast" in paragraphs +9-11 to "implicit_cast" where that is defined by: +

      + +
      +
      template <class T, class U>
      +inline
      +T implicit_cast(const U& u)
      +{
      +     return u;
      +}
      +
      +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      Replace 23.2.3 [sequence.reqmts] paragraphs 9 - 11 with:

      + +

      For every sequence defined in this clause and in clause lib.strings:

      + +
        +
      • +

        If the constructor

        +
               template <class InputIterator>
        +       X(InputIterator f, InputIterator l,
        +         const allocator_type& a = allocator_type())
        +       
        +

        is called with a type InputIterator that does not qualify as + an input iterator, then the constructor will behave as if the + overloaded constructor:

        +
               X(size_type, const value_type& = value_type(),
        +         const allocator_type& = allocator_type())
        +       
        +

        were called instead, with the arguments static_cast<size_type>(f), l and a, respectively.

        +
      • + +
      • +

        If the member functions of the forms:

        +
               template <class InputIterator>          //  such as  insert()
        +       rt fx1(iterator p, InputIterator f, InputIterator l);
        +
        +       template <class InputIterator>          //  such as  append(), assign()
        +       rt fx2(InputIterator f, InputIterator l);
        +
        +       template <class InputIterator>          //  such as  replace()
        +       rt fx3(iterator i1, iterator i2, InputIterator f, InputIterator l);
        +       
        +

        are called with a type InputIterator that does not qualify as + an input iterator, then these functions will behave as if the + overloaded member functions:

               rt fx1(iterator, size_type, const value_type&);
         
        -       rt fx2(size_type, const value_type&);
        +       rt fx2(size_type, const value_type&);
        +
        +       rt fx3(iterator, iterator, size_type, const value_type&);
        +       
        +

        were called instead, with the same arguments.

        +
      • +
      + +

      In the previous paragraph the alternative binding will fail if f +is not implicitly convertible to X::size_type or if l is not implicitly +convertible to X::value_type.

      + +

      +The extent to which an implementation determines that a type cannot be +an input iterator is unspecified, except that as a minimum integral +types shall not qualify as input iterators. +

      + + + +

      [ +Kona: agreed that the current standard requires v('a', 'b') +to be accepted, and also agreed that this is surprising behavior. The +LWG considered several options, including something like +implicit_cast, which doesn't appear to be quite what we want. We +considered Howards three options: allow acceptance or rejection, +require rejection as a compile time error, and require acceptance. By +straw poll (1-6-1), we chose to require a compile time error. +Post-Kona: Howard provided wording. +]

      + + +

      [ +Sydney: The LWG agreed with this general direction, but there was some +discomfort with the wording in the original proposed resolution. +Howard submitted new wording, and we will review this again in +Redmond. +]

      + + +

      [Redmond: one very small change in wording: the first argument + is cast to size_t. This fixes the problem of something like + vector<vector<int> >(5, 5), where int is not + implicitly convertible to the value type.]

      + + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      The proposed resolution fixes:

      + +
        vector<int> v(10, 1);
      +
      + +

      +since as integral types 10 and 1 must be disqualified as input +iterators and therefore the (size,value) constructor is called (as +if).

      + +

      The proposed resolution breaks:

      + +
        vector<vector<T> > v(10, 1);
      +
      + +

      +because the integral type 1 is not *implicitly* convertible to +vector<T>. The wording above requires a diagnostic.

      + +

      +The proposed resolution leaves the behavior of the following code +unspecified. +

      + +
        struct A
      +  {
      +    operator int () const {return 10;}
      +  };
      +
      +  struct B
      +  {
      +    B(A) {}
      +  };
      +
      +  vector<B> v(A(), A());
      +
      + +

      +The implementation may or may not detect that A is not an input +iterator and employee the (size,value) constructor. Note though that +in the above example if the B(A) constructor is qualified explicit, +then the implementation must reject the constructor as A is no longer +implicitly convertible to B. +

      +The standard places no restrictions at all on the reference type +of input, output, or forward iterators (for forward iterators it +only specifies that *x must be value_type& and doesn't mention +the reference type). Bidirectional iterators' reference type is +restricted only by implication, since the base iterator's +reference type is used as the return type of reverse_iterator's +operator*, which must be T& in order to be a conforming forward +iterator. +

      + +

      +Here's what I think we ought to be able to expect from an input +or forward iterator's reference type R, where a is an iterator +and V is its value_type +

      + +
        +
      • + *a is convertible to R +
      • + +
      • + R is convertible to V +
      • + +
      • + static_cast<V>(static_cast<R>(*a)) is equivalent to + static_cast<V>(*a) +
      • +
      + +

      A mutable forward iterator ought to satisfy, for x of type V:

      +
            { R r = *a; r = x; } is equivalent to *a = x;
      +  
      + +

      +I think these requirements capture existing container iterators +(including vector<bool>'s), but render istream_iterator invalid; +its reference type would have to be changed to a constant +reference. +

      + + +

      +(Jeremy Siek) During the discussion in Sydney, it was felt that a +simpler long term solution for this was needed. The solution proposed +was to require reference to be the same type as *a +and pointer to be the same type as a->. Most +iterators in the Standard Library already meet this requirement. Some +iterators are output iterators, and do not need to meet the +requirement, and others are only specified through the general +iterator requirements (which will change with this resolution). The +sole case where there is an explicit definition of the reference type +that will need to change is istreambuf_iterator which returns +charT from operator* but has a reference type of +charT&. We propose changing the reference type of +istreambuf_iterator to charT. +

      + +

      The other option for resolving the issue with pointer, + mentioned in the note below, is to remove pointer + altogether. I prefer placing requirements on pointer to + removing it for two reasons. First, pointer will become + useful for implementing iterator adaptors and in particular, + reverse_iterator will become more well defined. Second, + removing pointer is a rather drastic and publicly-visible + action to take.

      + +

      The proposed resolution technically enlarges the requirements for +iterators, which means there are existing iterators (such as +istreambuf_iterator, and potentially some programmer-defined +iterators) that will no longer meet the requirements. Will this break +existing code? The scenario in which it would is if an algorithm +implementation (say in the Standard Library) is changed to rely on +iterator_traits::reference, and then is used with one of the +iterators that do not have an appropriately defined +iterator_traits::reference. +

      + + +

      The proposed resolution makes one other subtle change. Previously, +it was required that output iterators have a difference_type +and value_type of void, which means that a forward +iterator could not be an output iterator. This is clearly a mistake, +so I've changed the wording to say that those types may be +void. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      In 24.4.1 [iterator.traits], after:

      + +

      +be defined as the iterator's difference type, value type and iterator +category, respectively. +

      + +

      add

      + +

      +In addition, the types

      +
      iterator_traits<Iterator>::reference
      +iterator_traits<Iterator>::pointer
      +
      +

      must be defined as the iterator's reference and pointer types, that +is, the same type as the type of *a and a->, +respectively.

      +
      + +

      In 24.4.1 [iterator.traits], change:

      + +

      +In the case of an output iterator, the types

      +
      iterator_traits<Iterator>::difference_type
      +iterator_traits<Iterator>::value_type
      +
      +

      are both defined as void.

      +
      + +

      to:

      +

      +In the case of an output iterator, the types

      +
      iterator_traits<Iterator>::difference_type
      +iterator_traits<Iterator>::value_type
      +iterator_traits<Iterator>::reference
      +iterator_traits<Iterator>::pointer
      +
      +

      may be defined as void.

      +
      + +

      In 24.6.3 [istreambuf.iterator], change:

      +
      +
      typename traits::off_type, charT*, charT&>
      +
      +
      +

      to:

      +
      +
      typename traits::off_type, charT*, charT>
      +
      +
      + +

      [ +Redmond: there was concern in Sydney that this might not be the only place +where things were underspecified and needed to be changed. Jeremy +reviewed iterators in the standard and confirmed that nothing else +needed to be changed. +]

      +Both cerr::tie() and wcerr::tie() are obliged to be null at program +startup. This is overspecification and overkill.

      456. Traditional C header files are overspecified

      +

      Section: 17.6.1.2 [headers] Status: CD1 + Submitter: Bill Plauger Opened: 2004-01-30 Last modified: 2010-10-29

      +

      Discussion:

      + +

      The C++ Standard effectively requires that the traditional C headers +(of the form <xxx.h>) be defined in terms of the newer C++ +headers (of the form <cxxx>). Clauses 17.4.1.2/4 and D.5 combine +to require that:

      + +
        +
      • Including the header <cxxx> declares a C name in namespace std.
      • + +
      • Including the header <xxx.h> declares a C name in namespace std + (effectively by including <cxxx>), then imports it into the global + namespace with an individual using declaration.
      • +
      + +

      +The rules were left in this form despited repeated and heated objections +from several compiler vendors. The C headers are often beyond the direct +control of C++ implementors. In some organizations, it's all they can do +to get a few #ifdef __cplusplus tests added. Third-party library vendors +can perhaps wrap the C headers. But neither of these approaches supports +the drastic restructuring required by the C++ Standard. As a result, it is +still widespread practice to ignore this conformance requirement, nearly +seven years after the committee last debated this topic. Instead, what is +often implemented is: +

      + +
        +
      • Including the header <xxx.h> declares a C name in the + global namespace.
      • + +
      • Including the header <cxxx> declares a C name in the + global namespace (effectively by including <xxx.h>), then + imports it into namespace std with an individual using declaration.
      • +
      + +

      +The practical benefit for implementors with the second approach is that +they can use existing C library headers, as they are pretty much obliged +to do. The practical cost for programmers facing a mix of implementations +is that they have to assume weaker rules:

      + +
        +
      • If you want to assuredly declare a C name in the global + namespace, include <xxx.h>. You may or may not also get the + declaration in namespace std.
      • + +
      • If you want to assuredly declare a C name in namespace std, + include <cxxx>. You may or may not also get the declaration in + the global namespace.
      • +
      + +

      +There also exists the possibility of subtle differences due to +Koenig lookup, but there are so few non-builtin types defined in the C +headers that I've yet to see an example of any real problems in this +area. +

      + +

      +It is worth observing that the rate at which programmers fall afoul of +these differences has remained small, at least as measured by newsgroup +postings and our own bug reports. (By an overwhelming margin, the +commonest problem is still that programmers include <string> and can't +understand why the typename string isn't defined -- this a decade after +the committee invented namespace std, nominally for the benefit of all +programmers.) +

      + +

      +We should accept the fact that we made a serious mistake and rectify it, +however belatedly, by explicitly allowing either of the two schemes for +declaring C names in headers. +

      + +

      [Sydney: This issue has been debated many times, and will + certainly have to be discussed in full committee before any action + can be taken. However, the preliminary sentiment of the LWG was in + favor of the change. (6 yes, 0 no, 2 abstain) Robert Klarer + suggests that we might also want to undeprecate the + C-style .h headers.]

      + + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add to 17.6.1.2 [headers], para. 4: +

      + +

      +Except as noted in clauses 18 through 27 and Annex D, the contents of each +header cname shall be the same as that of the corresponding header +name.h, as specified in ISO/IEC 9899:1990 Programming Languages C (Clause +7), or ISO/IEC:1990 Programming Languages-C AMENDMENT 1: C Integrity, (Clause +7), as appropriate, as if by inclusion. In the C++ Standard Library, however, +the declarations and definitions (except for names which are defined +as macros in C) are within namespace scope (3.3.5) of the namespace std. +It is unspecified whether these names are first declared within the global +namespace scope and are then injected into namespace std by explicit +using-declarations (7.3.3 [namespace.udecl]). +

      + +

      + +
      +

      +-2- Every C header, each of which has a name of the form name.h, behaves +as if each name placed in the Standard library namespace by the corresponding +cname header is also placed within the global +namespace scope. of the namespace std and is followed +by an explicit using-declaration (7.3.3 [namespace.udecl]). +It is unspecified whether these names are first declared or defined within +namespace scope (3.3.6 [basic.scope.namespace]) of the namespace +std and are then injected into the global namespace scope by explicit +using-declarations (7.3.3 [namespace.udecl]). +

      +

      +-3- [Example: The header <cstdlib> assuredly +provides its declarations and definitions within the namespace std. +It may also provide these names within the global namespace.

      +Object-representation vs. value-representation strikes again. CHAR_BIT * +sizeof (unsigned long) does not give us the number of bits an unsigned long +uses to hold the value. Thus, the first M bit position above is not +guaranteed to have any corresponding bit values in val. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Template time_get currently contains difficult, if not impossible, +requirements for do_date_order, do_get_time, and do_get_date. All require +the implementation to scan a field generated by the %x or %X conversion +specifier in strftime. Yes, do_date_order can always return no_order, but +that doesn't help the other functions. The problem is that %x can be +nearly anything, and it can vary widely with locales. It's horribly +onerous to have to parse "third sunday after Michaelmas in the year of +our Lord two thousand and three," but that's what we currently ask of +do_get_date. More practically, it leads some people to think that if +%x produces 10.2.04, we should know to look for dots as separators. Still +not easy. +

      + +

      +Note that this is the opposite effect from the intent stated in the +footnote earlier in this subclause: +

      + +

      +"In other words, user confirmation is required for reliable parsing of +user-entered dates and times, but machine-generated formats can be +parsed reliably. This allows parsers to be aggressive about interpreting +user variations on standard formats." +

      + +

      +We should give both implementers and users an easier and more reliable +alternative: provide a (short) list of alternative delimiters and say +what the default date order is for no_order. For backward compatibility, +and maximum latitude, we can permit an implementation to parse whatever +%x or %X generates, but we shouldn't require it. +

      Rationale:

      + +
        +
      • To obtain a pointer to the vector's buffer, one must use either operator[]() (which can give undefined behavior for empty vectors) or at() (which will then throw if the vector is empty).
      • +
      • tr1::array<T,sz> already has a data() member
      • +
      • e cannot use operator[]() when T is not DefaultDonstructible
      • +
      • Neither when the map is const.
      • +
      • when we want to make sure we don't add an element accidently
      • +
      • when it should be considered an error if a key is not in the map
      • +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      In 23.4.1 [vector], add the following to the vector + synopsis after "element access" and before "modifiers":

      +
        // [lib.vector.data] data access
      +  pointer       data();
      +  const_pointer data() const;
      +
      + +

      Add a new subsection of 23.4.1 [vector]:

      +
      +

      23.2.4.x vector data access

      +
         pointer       data();
      +   const_pointer data() const;
      +
      +

      Returns: A pointer such that [data(), data() + size()) is a valid + range. For a non-empty vector, data() == &front().

      +

      Complexity: Constant time.

      +

      Throws: Nothing.

      +
      + +

      In 23.6.1 [map], add the following to the map +synopsis immediately after the line for operator[]:

      +
        T&       at(const key_type& x);
      +  const T& at(const key_type& x) const;
      +
      + +

      Add the following to 23.6.1.2 [map.access]:

      +
      +
        T&       at(const key_type& x);
      +  const T& at(const key_type& x) const;
      +
      + +

      Returns: A reference to the element whose key is equivalent + to x, if such an element is present in the map.

      +

      Throws: out_of_range if no such element is present.

      + +
      + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      Neither of these additions provides any new functionality but the + LWG agreed that they are convenient, especially for novices. The + exception type chosen for at, std::out_of_range, + was chosen to match vector::at.

      Discussion:

      + +

      The program below is required to compile but when run it typically +produces unexpected results due to the user-defined conversion from +std::cout or any object derived from basic_ios to void*. +

      + +
          #include <cassert>
      +    #include <iostream>
      +
      +    int main ()
      +    {

      +        // calls std::cout.ios::operator void*()
      +    }
      +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      +Replace std::basic_ios<charT, traits>::operator void*() with another +conversion operator to some unspecified type that is guaranteed not +to be convertible to any other type except for bool (a pointer-to-member +might be one such suitable type). In addition, make it clear that the +pointer type need not be a pointer to a complete type and when non-null, +the value need not be valid. +

      + +

      Specifically, change in [lib.ios] the signature of

      +
          operator void*() const;
      +
      +

      to

      +
          operator unspecified-bool-type() const;

      and change [lib.iostate.flags], p1 from

      +
          operator void*() const;

      +

      to

      +
      operator unspecified-bool-type() const;
      +
      +     -1- Returns: if fail() then a value that will evaluate false in a

      +      convertible to int.
      +
      +     -2- [Note: This conversion can be used in contexts where a bool
      +      is expected (e.g., an if condition); however, implicit
      +      conversions (e.g., to int) that can occur with bool are not
      +      allowed, eliminating some sources of user error. One possible
      +      implementation choice for this type is pointer-to-member.  - end

      [lib.exception] specifies the following:

      +
          exception (const exception&) throw();
      +    exception& operator= (const exception&) throw();
      +
      +    -4- Effects: Copies an exception object.
      +    -5- Notes: The effects of calling what() after assignment
      +        are implementation-defined.
      +
      + +

      +First, does the Note only apply to the assignment operator? If so, +what are the effects of calling what() on a copy of an object? Is +the returned pointer supposed to point to an identical copy of +the NTBS returned by what() called on the original object or not? +

      + +

      +Second, is this Note intended to extend to all the derived classes +in section 19? I.e., does the standard provide any guarantee for +the effects of what() called on a copy of any of the derived class +described in section 19? +

      + +

      +Finally, if the answer to the first question is no, I believe it +constitutes a defect since throwing an exception object typically +implies invoking the copy ctor on the object. If the answer is yes, +then I believe the standard ought to be clarified to spell out +exactly what the effects are on the copy (i.e., after the copy +ctor was called). +

      +

      +If reference counting required, could we tighten specification further +to require same pointer value? Probably an overspecification, especially +if exception classes defer evalutation of final string to calls to +what(). +

      + + +
      +

      +I think the resolution should at least guarantee +that the result of what() is independent of whether the compiler does +copy-elision. And for any class derived from std::excepion that has a +constructor that allows specifying a what_arg, it should make sure that +the text of a user-provided what_arg is preserved, when the object is +copied. Note that all the implementations I've tested already appear to +satisfy the proposed resolution, including MSVC 2008 SP1, Apache +stdcxx-4.2.1, GCC 4.1.2, GCC 4.3.2, and CodeGear C++ 6.13. +

      +

      473. underspecified ctype calls

      +

      Section: 22.4.1.1 [locale.ctype] Status: WP + Submitter: Martin Sebor Opened: 2004-07-01 Last modified: 2010-10-29

      +

      View all issues with WP status.

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Most ctype member functions come in two forms: one that operates +on a single character at a time and another form that operates +on a range of characters. Both forms are typically described by +a single Effects and/or Returns clause. +

      +

      +The Returns clause of each of the single-character non-virtual forms +suggests that the function calls the corresponding single character +virtual function, and that the array form calls the corresponding +virtual array form. Neither of the two forms of each virtual member +function is required to be implemented in terms of the other. +

      +

      +There are three problems: +

      +

      +1. One is that while the standard does suggest that each non-virtual +member function calls the corresponding form of the virtual function, +it doesn't actually explicitly require it. +

      +

      +Implementations that cache results from some of the virtual member +functions for some or all values of their arguments might want to +call the array form from the non-array form the first time to fill +the cache and avoid any or most subsequent virtual calls. Programs +that rely on each form of the virtual function being called from +the corresponding non-virtual function will see unexpected behavior +when using such implementations. +

      +

      +2. The second problem is that either form of each of the virtual +functions can be overridden by a user-defined function in a derived +class to return a value that is different from the one produced by +the virtual function of the alternate form that has not been +overriden. +

      +

      +Thus, it might be possible for, say, ctype::widen(c) to return one +value, while for ctype::widen(&c, &c + 1, &wc) to set +wc to another value. This is almost certainly not intended. Both +forms of every function should be required to return the same result +for the same character, otherwise the same program using an +implementation that calls one form of the functions will behave +differently than when using another implementation that calls the +other form of the function "under the hood." +

      +

      +3. The last problem is that the standard text fails to specify whether +one form of any of the virtual functions is permitted to be implemented +in terms of the other form or not, and if so, whether it is required +or permitted to call the overridden virtual function or not. +

      +

      +Thus, a program that overrides one of the virtual functions so that +it calls the other form which then calls the base member might end +up in an infinite loop if the called form of the base implementation +of the function in turn calls the other form. +

      +

      +Lillehammer: Part of this isn't a real problem. We already talk about +caching. 22.1.1/6 But part is a real problem. ctype virtuals may call +each other, so users don't know which ones to override to avoid avoid +infinite loops.

      + +

      This is a problem for all facet virtuals, not just ctype virtuals, +so we probably want a blanket statement in clause 22 for all +facets. The LWG is leaning toward a blanket prohibition, that a +facet's virtuals may never call each other. We might want to do that +in clause 27 too, for that matter. A review is necessary. Bill will +provide wording.

      + +
      +-3- Within this clause it is unspecified if one virtual function calls another +virtual function. +
      + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      +We are explicitly not addressing bullet +item #2, thus giving implementors more latitude. Users will have to +override both virtual functions, not just one. +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +It is not clear whether the function object passed to for_each is allowed to +modify the elements of the sequence being iterated over. +

      + +

      +for_each is classified without explanation in [lib.alg.nonmodifying], "25.1 +Non-modifying sequence operations". 'Non-modifying sequence operation' is +never defined. +

      + +

      +25(5) says: "If an algorithm's Effects section says that a value pointed to +by any iterator passed as an argument is modified, then that algorithm has +an additional type requirement: The type of that argument shall satisfy the +requirements of a mutable iterator (24.1)." +

      + +

      for_each's Effects section does not mention whether arguments can be +modified:

      + +

      + "Effects: Applies f to the result of dereferencing every iterator in the + range [first, last), starting from first and proceeding to last - 1." +

      + +

      +Every other algorithm in [lib.alg.nonmodifying] is "really" non-modifying in +the sense that neither the algorithms themselves nor the function objects +passed to the algorithms may modify the sequences or elements in any way. +This DR affects only for_each. +

      + +

      +We suspect that for_each's classification in "non-modifying sequence +operations" means that the algorithm itself does not inherently modify the +sequence or the elements in the sequence, but that the function object +passed to it may modify the elements it operates on. +

      + +

      +The original STL document by Stepanov and Lee explicitly prohibited the +function object from modifying its argument. +The "obvious" implementation of for_each found in several standard library +implementations, however, does not impose this restriction. +As a result, we suspect that the use of for_each with function objects that modify +their arguments is wide-spread. +If the restriction was reinstated, all such code would become non-conforming. +Further, none of the other algorithms in the Standard +could serve the purpose of for_each (transform does not guarantee the order in +which its function object is called). +

      + +

      +We suggest that the standard be clarified to explicitly allow the function object +passed to for_each modify its argument.

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      Add a nonnormative note to the Effects in 25.2.4 [alg.foreach]: If +the type of 'first' satisfies the requirements of a mutable iterator, +'f' may apply nonconstant functions through the dereferenced iterators +passed to it. +

      + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      The LWG believes that nothing in the standard prohibits function + objects that modify the sequence elements. The problem is that + for_each is in a secion entitled "nonmutating algorithms", and the + title may be confusing. A nonnormative note should clarify that.

      +

      +The Forward Iterator requirements table contains the following: +

      +
       expression  return type         operational  precondition
      +                                  semantics
      +  ==========  ==================  ===========  ==========================
      +  a->m        U& if X is mutable, (*a).m       pre: (*a).m is well-defined.
      +              otherwise const U&
      +
      +  r->m        U&                  (*r).m       pre: (*r).m is well-defined.
      +
      + +

      The second line may be unnecessary. Paragraph 11 of + [lib.iterator.requirements] says: +

      + +

      + In the following sections, a and b denote values of type const X, n + denotes a value of the difference type Distance, u, tmp, and m + denote identifiers, r denotes a value of X&, t denotes a value of + value type T, o denotes a value of some type that is writable to + the output iterator. +

      + +

      +Because operators can be overloaded on an iterator's const-ness, the +current requirements allow iterators to make many of the operations +specified using the identifiers a and b invalid for non-const +iterators.

      + +

      Related issue: 477

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      Remove the "r->m" line from the Forward Iterator requirements +table. Change

      488. rotate throws away useful information

      Discussion:

      +

      +rotate takes 3 iterators: first, middle and last which point into a +sequence, and rearranges the sequence such that the subrange [middle, +last) is now at the beginning of the sequence and the subrange [first, +middle) follows. The return type is void. +

      + +

      +In many use cases of rotate, the client needs to know where the +subrange [first, middle) starts after the rotate is performed. This +might look like: +

      +
        rotate(first, middle, last);
      +  Iterator i = advance(first, distance(middle, last));
      +
      + +

      +Unless the iterators are random access, the computation to find the +start of the subrange [first, middle) has linear complexity. However, +it is not difficult for rotate to return this information with +negligible additional computation expense. So the client could code: +

      +
        Iterator i = rotate(first, middle, last);
      +
      + +

      +and the resulting program becomes significantly more efficient. +

      + +

      +While the backwards compatibility hit with this change is not zero, it +is very small (similar to that of lwg 130), and there is +a significant benefit to the change. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      In 25 [algorithms] p2, change:

      + +
        template<class ForwardIterator>
      +    void ForwardIterator rotate(ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator middle,
      +                ForwardIterator last);

      495. Clause 22 template parameter requirements

      Discussion:

      +

      It appears that there are no requirements specified for many of the +template parameters in clause 22. It looks like this issue has never +come up, except perhaps for Facet.

      + +

      Clause 22 isn't even listed in 17.3.2.1 [lib.type.descriptions], +either, which is the wording that allows requirements on template +parameters to be identified by name.

      + +

      So one issue is that 17.3.2.1 [lib.type.descriptions] Should be +changed to cover clause 22. A better change, which will cover us in +the future, would be to say that it applies to all the library +clauses. Then if a template gets added to any library clause we are +covered.

      + +

      charT, InputIterator, and other names with requirements defined +elsewhere are fine, assuming the 17.3.2.1 [lib.type.descriptions] fix. +But there are a few template arguments names which I don't think have +requirements given elsewhere:

      + +
        +
      • internT and externT. The fix is to add wording saying that internT +and externT must meet the same requirements as template arguments +named charT.
      • + +
      • stateT. I'm not sure about this one. There already is some wording, +but it seems a bit vague.
      • + +
      • Intl. [lib.locale.moneypunct.byname] The fix for this one is to +rename "Intl" to "International". The name is important because other +text identifies the requirements for the name International but not +for Intl.
      • +
      + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      Change 17.5.2.1 [type.descriptions], paragraph 1, from:

      +

      +The Requirements subclauses may describe names that are used to +specify constraints on template arguments.153) These names are used in +clauses 20, 23, 25, and 26 to describe the types that may be supplied +as arguments by a C++ program when instantiating template components +from the library. +

      +

      to:

      +

      +The Requirements subclauses may describe names that are used to +specify constraints on template arguments.153) These names are used in +library clauses to describe the types that may be supplied as +arguments by a C++ program when instantiating template components from +the library. +

      + +

      In the front matter of class 22, locales, add:

      +

      +Template parameter types internT and externT shall meet the +requirements of charT (described in 21 [strings]). +

      + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      + Again, a blanket clause isn't blanket enough. Also, we've got a + couple of names that we don't have blanket requirement statements + for. The only issue is what to do about stateT. This wording is + thin, but probably adequate.

      497. meaning of numeric_limits::traps for floating point types

      +

      Discussion:

      + +

      18.2.1.2, p59 says this much about the traps member of numeric_limits:

      + +
      +

      static const bool traps;
      +-59- true if trapping is implemented for the type.204) +
      +Footnote 204: Required by LIA-1. +

      +
      + +

      It's not clear what is meant by "is implemented" here.

      + +

      +In the context of floating point numbers it seems reasonable to expect +to be able to use traps to determine whether a program can "safely" use +infinity(), quiet_NaN(), etc., in arithmetic expressions, that is +without causing a trap (i.e., on UNIX without having to worry about +getting a signal). When traps is true, I would expect any of the +operations in section 7 of IEEE 754 to cause a trap (and my program +to get a SIGFPE). So, for example, on Alpha, I would expect traps +to be true by default (unless I compiled my program with the -ieee +option), false by default on most other popular architectures, +including IA64, MIPS, PA-RISC, PPC, SPARC, and x86 which require +traps to be explicitly enabled by the program. +

      + +

      +Another possible interpretation of p59 is that traps should be true +on any implementation that supports traps regardless of whether they +are enabled by default or not. I don't think such an interpretation +makes the traps member very useful, even though that is how traps is +implemented on several platforms. It is also the only way to implement +traps on platforms that allow programs to enable and disable trapping +at runtime. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      Change p59 to read:

      +

      True if, at program startup, there exists a value of the type that + would cause an arithmetic operation using that value to trap.

      + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      + Real issue, since trapping can be turned on and off. Unclear what a + static query can say about a dynamic issue. The real advice we should + give users is to use cfenv for these sorts of queries. But this new + proposed resolution is at least consistent and slightly better than + nothing.

      Rationale:

      +

      +Partition is a "foundation" algorithm useful in many contexts (like sorting +as just one example) - my motivation for extending it to include forward +iterators is foward_list - without this extension you can't partition an foward_list +(without writing your own partition). Holes like this in the standard +library weaken the argument for generic programming (ideally I'd be able +to provide a library that would refine std::partition() to other concepts +without fear of conflicting with other libraries doing the same - but +that is a digression). I consider the fact that partition isn't defined +to work for ForwardIterator a minor embarrassment. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The fifth of these engines with predefined parameters, ranlux64_base_01, +appears to have an unintentional error for which there is a simple correction. +The two pre-defined subtract_with_carry_01 engines are given as: +

      +
      typedef subtract_with_carry_01<float,  24, 10, 24> ranlux_base_01;
      +typedef subtract_with_carry_01<double, 48, 10, 24> ranlux64_base_01;
      +
      +

      +We demonstrate below that ranlux64_base_01 fails to meet the intent of the +random number generation proposal, but that the simple correction to +

      +
      typedef subtract_with_carry_01<double, 48,  5, 12> ranlux64_base_01;
      +
      +

      +does meet the intent of defining well-known good parameterizations. +

      +

      +The ranlux64_base_01 engine as presented fails to meet the intent for +predefined engines, stated in proposal N1398 (section E): +

      +

      +In order to make good random numbers available to a large number of library +users, this proposal not only defines generic random-number engines, but also +provides a number of predefined well-known good parameterizations for those. +

      +

      +The predefined ranlux_base_01 engine has been proven [1,2,3] to have a very +long period and so meets this criterion. This property makes it suitable for +use in the excellent discard_block engines defined subsequently. The proof +of long period relies on the fact (proven in [1]) that 2**(w*r) - 2**(w*s) ++ 1 is prime (w, r, and s are template parameters to subtract_with_carry_01, +as defined in [tr.rand.eng.sub1]). +

      +

      +The ranlux64_base_01 engine as presented in [tr.rand.predef] uses w=48, r=24, s=10. +For these numbers, the combination 2**(w*r)-2**(w*s)+1 is non-prime (though +explicit factorization would be a challenge). In consequence, while it is +certainly possible for some seeding states that this engine would have a very +long period, it is not at all "well-known" that this is the case. The intent +in the N1398 proposal involved the base of the ranlux64 engine, which finds heavy +use in the physics community. This is isomorphic to the predefined ranlux_base_01, +but exploits the ability of double variables to hold (at least) 48 bits of mantissa, +to deliver 48 random bits at a time rather than 24. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Issue 371 deals with stability of multiset/multimap under insert and erase +(i.e. do they preserve the relative order in ranges of equal elements). +The same issue applies to unordered_multiset and unordered_multimap. +

      +

      [ +Moved to open (from review): There is no resolution. +]

      + + +

      [ +Toronto: We have a resolution now. Moved to Review. Some concern was noted +as to whether this conflicted with existing practice or not. An additional +concern was in specifying (partial) ordering for an unordered container. +]

      + + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Wording for the proposed resolution is taken from the equivalent text for associative containers. +

      + +

      +Change 23.2.5 [unord.req], Unordered associative containers, paragraph 6 to: +

      + +

      +An unordered associative container supports unique keys if it may +contain at most one element for each key. Otherwise, it supports equivalent +keys. unordered_set and unordered_map support +unique keys. unordered_multiset and unordered_multimap +support equivalent keys. In containers that support equivalent keys, elements +with equivalent keys are adjacent to each other. For +unordered_multiset +and unordered_multimap, insert and erase +preserve the relative ordering of equivalent elements. +

      + +

      +Change 23.2.5 [unord.req], Unordered associative containers, paragraph 8 to: +

      + +
      +

      The elements of an unordered associative container are organized into +buckets. Keys with the same hash code appear in the same bucket. The number +of buckets is automatically increased as elements are added to an unordered +associative container, so that the average number of elements per bucket is kept +below a bound. Rehashing invalidates iterators, changes ordering between +elements, and changes which buckets elements appear in, but does not invalidate +pointers or references to elements. For unordered_multiset +and unordered_multimap, rehashing +preserves the relative ordering of equivalent elements.

      Discussion:

      +

      +In the original proposal for binders, the return type of bind() when +called with a pointer to member data as it's callable object was +defined to be mem_fn(ptr); when Peter Dimov and I unified the +descriptions of the TR1 function objects we hoisted the descriptions +of return types into the INVOKE pseudo-function and into result_of. +Unfortunately, we left pointer to member data out of result_of, so +bind doesn't have any specified behavior when called with a pointer +to member data. +

      + + +

      +

      [ +Pete and Peter will provide wording. +]

      Discussion:

      +

      +This defect is also being discussed on the Boost developers list. The +full discussion can be found here: +http://lists.boost.org/boost/2005/07/29546.php +

      +

      +-- Begin original message -- +

      +

      +Also, I may have found another issue, closely related to the one under +discussion. It regards case-insensitive matching of named character +classes. The regex_traits<> provides two functions for working with +named char classes: lookup_classname and isctype. To match a char class +such as [[:alpha:]], you pass "alpha" to lookup_classname and get a +bitmask. Later, you pass a char and the bitmask to isctype and get a +bool yes/no answer. +

      +

      +But how does case-insensitivity work in this scenario? Suppose we're +doing a case-insensitive match on [[:lower:]]. It should behave as if it +were [[:lower:][:upper:]], right? But there doesn't seem to be enough +smarts in the regex_traits interface to do this. +

      +

      +Imagine I write a traits class which recognizes [[:fubar:]], and the +"fubar" char class happens to be case-sensitive. How is the regex engine +to know that? And how should it do a case-insensitive match of a +character against the [[:fubar:]] char class? John, can you confirm this +is a legitimate problem? +

      +

      +I see two options: +

      +

      +1) Add a bool icase parameter to lookup_classname. Then, +lookup_classname( "upper", true ) will know to return lower|upper +instead of just upper. +

      +

      +2) Add a isctype_nocase function +

      +

      +I prefer (1) because the extra computation happens at the time the +pattern is compiled rather than when it is executed. +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      Issue 69, which was incorporated into C++03, mandated + that the elements of a vector must be stored in contiguous memory. + Should the same also apply to basic_string?

      + +

      We almost require contiguity already. Clause 23.6.4 [multiset] + defines operator[] as data()[pos]. What's missing + is a similar guarantee if we access the string's elements via the + iterator interface.

      + +

      Given the existence of data(), and the definition of + operator[] and at in terms of data, + I don't believe it's possible to write a useful and standard- + conforming basic_string that isn't contiguous. I'm not + aware of any non-contiguous implementation. We should just require + it. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      Add the following text to the end of 21.4 [basic.string], +paragraph 2.

      + +
      +

      The characters in a string are stored contiguously, meaning that if + s is a basic_string<charT, Allocator>, then + it obeys the identity + &*(s.begin() + n) == &*s.begin() + n + for all 0 <= n < s.size(). +

      +
      + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      +Not standardizing this existing practice does not give implementors more +freedom. We thought it might a decade ago. But the vendors have spoken +both with their implementations, and with their voice at the LWG +meetings. The implementations are going to be contiguous no matter what +the standard says. So the standard might as well give string clients +more design choices. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The array forms of unformatted input functions don't seem to have well-defined +semantics for zero-element arrays in a couple of cases. The affected ones +(istream::get() and istream::getline()) are supposed to +terminate when (n - 1) characters are stored, which obviously can +never be true when (n == 0) holds to start with. See +c++std-lib-16071. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +I suggest changing 27.6.1.3, p7 (istream::get()), bullet 1 to read: +

      +
        +
      • + (n < 1) is true or (n - 1) characters + are stored; +
      • +
      +

      +Change 27.6.1.3, p9: +

      + +

      +If the function stores no characters, it calls setstate(failbit) (which +may throw ios_base::failure (27.4.4.3)). In any case, if (n +> 0) is true it then stores a null character into the next +successive location of the array. +

      + +

      + +and similarly p17 (istream::getline()), bullet 3 to: + +

      +
        +
      • + (n < 1) is true or (n - 1) characters + are stored (in which case the function calls + setstate(failbit)). +
      • +
      + +

      + +In addition, to clarify that istream::getline() must not store the +terminating NUL character unless the the array has non-zero size, Robert +Klarer suggests in c++std-lib-16082 to change 27.6.1.3, p20 to read: + +

      +

      + +In any case, provided (n > 0) is true, it then stores a null character +(using charT()) into the next successive location of the array. + +

      + +

      Discussion:

      +

      +I believe I botched the resolution of + +241 "Does unique_copy() require CopyConstructible and Assignable?" which now +has WP status. +

      + +

      +This talks about unique_copy requirements and currently reads: +

      + +

      +-5- Requires: The ranges [first, last) and +[result, result+(last-first)) +shall not overlap. The expression *result = *first shall +be valid. If neither InputIterator nor OutputIterator meets the +requirements of forward iterator then the value type of InputIterator +must be CopyConstructible (20.1.3). Otherwise CopyConstructible is not required. +

      + +

      +The problem (which Paolo discovered) is that when the iterators are at their +most restrictive (InputIterator, OutputIterator), then we want +InputIterator::value_type to be both CopyConstructible and +CopyAssignable (for the most efficient implementation). However this +proposed resolution only makes it clear that it is CopyConstructible, +and that one can assign from *first to *result. +This latter requirement does not necessarily imply that you can: +

      + +
      *first = *first;
      +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +-5- Requires: The ranges [first, last) and +[result, result+(last-first)) +shall not overlap. The expression *result = *first +shall +be valid. If neither InputIterator nor OutputIterator meets the +requirements of forward iterator then the value type +value_type of InputIterator +must be CopyConstructible (20.1.3) and Assignable. +Otherwise CopyConstructible is not required. +

      539. partial_sum and adjacent_difference should mention requirements

      +

      Section: 26.7.3 [partial.sum] Status: WP + Submitter: Marc Schoolderman Opened: 2006-02-06 Last modified: 2010-10-29

      +

      View all issues with WP status.

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +There are some problems in the definition of partial_sum and +adjacent_difference in 26.4 [lib.numeric.ops] +

      + +

      +Unlike accumulate and inner_product, these functions are not +parametrized on a "type T", instead, 26.4.3 [lib.partial.sum] simply +specifies the effects clause as; +

      + +

      +Assigns to every element referred to by iterator i in the range +[result,result + (last - first)) a value correspondingly equal to +

      +
      ((...(* first + *( first + 1)) + ...) + *( first + ( i - result )))
      +
      +
      + +

      +And similarly for BinaryOperation. Using just this definition, it seems +logical to expect that: +

      + + +
      char i_array[4] = { 100, 100, 100, 100 };
      +int  o_array[4];
      +
      +std::partial_sum(i_array, i_array+4, o_array);
      +
      + +

      +Is equivalent to +

      + +
      int o_array[4] = { 100, 100+100, 100+100+100, 100+100+100+100 };
      +
      + +

      +i.e. 100, 200, 300, 400, with addition happening in the result type, +int. +

      + +

      +Yet all implementations I have tested produce 100, -56, 44, -112, +because they are using an accumulator of the InputIterator's +value_type, which in this case is char, not int. +

      + +

      +The issue becomes more noticeable when the result of the expression *i + +*(i+1) or binary_op(*i, *i-1) can't be converted to the +value_type. In a contrived example: +

      + +
      enum not_int { x = 1, y = 2 };
      +...
      +not_int e_array[4] = { x, x, y, y };
      +std::partial_sum(e_array, e_array+4, o_array);
      +
      + +

      +Is it the intent that the operations happen in the input type, or in +the result type? +

      + +

      +If the intent is that operations happen in the result type, something +like this should be added to the "Requires" clause of 26.4.3/4 +[lib.partial.sum]: +

      + +

      +The type of *i + *(i+1) or binary_op(*i, *(i+1)) shall meet the +requirements of CopyConstructible (20.1.3) and Assignable +(23.1) types. +

      + +

      +(As also required for T in 26.4.1 [lib.accumulate] and 26.4.2 +[lib.inner.product].) +

      + +

      +The "auto initializer" feature proposed in +N1894 +is not required to +implement partial_sum this way. The 'narrowing' behaviour can still be +obtained by using the std::plus<> function object. +

      + +

      +If the intent is that operations happen in the input type, then +something like this should be added instead; +

      + +

      +The type of *first shall meet the requirements of +CopyConstructible (20.1.3) and Assignable (23.1) types. +The result of *i + *(i+1) or binary_op(*i, *(i+1)) shall be +convertible to this type. +

      + +

      +The 'widening' behaviour can then be obtained by writing a custom proxy +iterator, which is somewhat involved. +

      + +

      +In both cases, the semantics should probably be clarified. +

      + +

      +26.4.4 [lib.adjacent.difference] is similarly underspecified, although +all implementations seem to perform operations in the 'result' type: +

      + +
      unsigned char i_array[4] = { 4, 3, 2, 1 };
      +int o_array[4];
      +
      +std::adjacent_difference(i_array, i_array+4, o_array);
      +
      + +

      +o_array is 4, -1, -1, -1 as expected, not 4, 255, 255, 255. +

      + +

      +In any case, adjacent_difference doesn't mention the requirements on the +value_type; it can be brought in line with the rest of 26.4 +[lib.numeric.ops] by adding the following to 26.4.4/2 +[lib.adjacent.difference]: +

      + +

      +The type of *first shall meet the requirements of +CopyConstructible (20.1.3) and Assignable (23.1) types." +

      +The intent of the algorithms is to perform their calculations using the type of the input iterator. +Proposed wording provided. +
      + +

      [ +Sophia Antipolis: +]

      + + +
      +We did not agree that the proposed resolution was correct. For example, +when the arguments are types (float*, float*, double*), the +highest-quality solution would use double as the type of the +accumulator. If the intent of the wording is to require that the type of +the accumulator must be the input_iterator's value_type, the wording +should specify it. +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-09 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Now that we have the facility, the 'best' accumulator type could probably be +deduced as: +

      +
      std::common_type<InIter::value_type, OutIter::reference>::type
      +
      +

      +This type would then have additional requirements of constructability and +incrementability/assignability. +

      +

      +If this extracting an accumulator type from a pair/set of iterators (with +additional requirements on that type) is a problem for multiple functions, +it might be worth extracting into a SharedAccumulator concept or similar. +

      +

      +I'll go no further in writing up wording now, until the group gives a +clearer indication of preferred direction. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Is the void specialization of the template assignment operator taking +a shared_ptr<void> as an argument supposed be well-formed? +

      +

      +I.e., is this snippet well-formed: +

      +
      shared_ptr<void> p;
      +p.operator=<void>(p);
      +
      + +

      +Gcc complains about auto_ptr<void>::operator*() returning a reference +to void. I suspect it's because shared_ptr has two template assignment +operators, one of which takes auto_ptr, and the auto_ptr template gets +implicitly instantiated in the process of overload resolution. +

      + +

      +The only way I see around it is to do the same trick with auto_ptr<void> +operator*() as with the same operator in shared_ptr<void>. +

      + +

      543. valarray slice default constructor

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +If one explicitly constructs a slice or glice with the default +constructor, does the standard require this slice to have any usable +state? It says "creates a slice which specifies no elements", which +could be interpreted two ways: +

      +
        +
      1. There are no elements to which the slice refers (i.e. undefined).
      2. +
      3. The slice specifies an array with no elements in it (i.e. defined).
      4. +
      +

      +Here is a bit of code to illustrate: +

      +
      #include <iostream>
      +#include <valarray>
      +
      +int main()
      +{
      +    std::valarray<int> v(10);
      +    std::valarray<int> v2 = v[std::slice()];
      +    std::cout << "v[slice()].size() = " << v2.size() << '\n';
      +}
      +
      + +

      +Is the behavior undefined? Or should the output be: +

      + +
      v[slice()].size() = 0
      +
      + +

      +There is a similar question and wording for gslice at 26.3.6.1p1. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      [Martin suggests removing the second sentence in 26.6.4.1 [cons.slice] as well.]

      + + +

      +Change 26.6.4.1 [cons.slice]: +

      + +

      +1 - The default constructor for slice creates a slice +which specifies no elements. The default constructor is equivalent to +slice(0, 0, 0). A default constructor is provided only to permit +the declaration of arrays of slices. The constructor with arguments for a slice +takes a start, length, and stride parameter. +

      + +

      +Change 26.6.6.1 [gslice.cons]: +

      + +

      +1 - The default constructor creates a gslice which specifies no +elements. The default constructor is equivalent to gslice(0, +valarray<size_t>(), valarray<size_t>()). The constructor +with arguments builds a gslice based on a specification of start, +lengths, and strides, as explained in the previous section. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The description of ~shared_ptr doesn't say when the shared_ptr's deleter, if +any, is destroyed. In principle there are two possibilities: it is destroyed +unconditionally whenever ~shared_ptr is executed (which, from an implementation +standpoint, means that the deleter is copied whenever the shared_ptr is copied), +or it is destroyed immediately after the owned pointer is destroyed (which, from +an implementation standpoint, means that the deleter object is shared between +instances). We should say which it is. +

      + + +

      +The returned pointer remains valid as long as there exists a shared_ptr instance +that owns d. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Assuming we adopt the +C +compatibility package from C99 what should be the return type of the +following signature be: +

      +
      ?  pow(float, int);
      +
      +

      +C++03 says that the return type should be float. + +TR1 and C90/99 say the return type should be double. This can put +clients into a situation where C++03 provides answers that are not as high +quality as C90/C99/TR1. For example: +

      +
      #include <math.h>
      +
      +int main()
      +{
      +    float x = 2080703.375F;
      +    double y = pow(x, 2);
      +}
      +
      +

      +Assuming an IEEE 32 bit float and IEEE 64 bit double, C90/C99/TR1 all suggest: +

      + +
      y = 4329326534736.390625
      +
      + +

      +which is exactly right. While C++98/C++03 demands: +

      + +
      y = 4329326510080.
      +
      + +

      +which is only approximately right. +

      + +

      +Howard, post Kona: +

      +
      +

      +Unfortunately I strongly disagree with a part of the resolution +from Kona. I am moving from New to Open instead of to Review because I do not believe +we have consensus on the intent of the resolution. +

      +

      +This issue does not include ldexp, scalbln, and scalbn because +the second integral parameter in each of these signatures (from C99) is not a +generic parameter according to C99 7.22p2. The corresponding C++ overloads are +intended (as far as I know) to correspond directly to C99's definition of generic parameter. +

      +

      +For similar reasons, I do not believe that the second long double parameter of +nexttoward, nor the return type of this function, is in error. I believe the +correct signature is: +

      +
      +
      float nexttoward(float, long double);
      +
      +
      +

      +which is what both the C++0X working paper and C99 state (as far as I currently understand). +

      +

      +This is really only about pow(float, int). And this is because C++98 took one +route (with pow only) and C99 took another (with many math functions in <tgmath.h>. +The proposed resolution basically says: C++98 got it wrong and C99 got it right; let's go with C99. +

      +]

      + + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +This signature was not picked up from C99. Instead, if one types +pow(2.0f,2), the promotion rules will invoke "double pow(double, +double)", which generally gives special treatment for integral +exponents, preserving full accuracy of the result. New proposed +wording provided. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +In 25, p8 we allow BinaryPredicates to return a type that's convertible +to bool but need not actually be bool. That allows predicates to return +things like proxies and requires that implementations be careful about +what kinds of expressions they use the result of the predicate in (e.g., +the expression in if (!pred(a, b)) need not be well-formed since the +negation operator may be inaccessible or return a type that's not +convertible to bool). +

        +8 The BinaryPredicate parameter is used whenever an algorithm expects a +function object that when applied to the result of dereferencing two +corresponding iterators or to dereferencing an iterator and type T when +T is part of the signature returns a value testable as true. +In other words, if an algorithm takes BinaryPredicate +binary_pred as its argument and first1 and first2 as +its iterator arguments, it should work correctly in the construct if +(binary_pred(*first1, *first2)){...} binary_pred(*first1, +*first2) contextually converted to bool (4 [conv]).

      +inserter(Container& x, Iterator i);
      +
      + +

      +The template parameter Iterator in this function is completely unrelated +to the template parameter Container when it doesn't need to be. This +causes the code to be overly generic. That is, any type at all can be deduced +as Iterator, whether or not it makes sense. Now the same is true of +Container. However, for every free (unconstrained) template parameter +one has in a signature, the opportunity for a mistaken binding grows geometrically. +

      +
      + +

      +Now there is only one free template parameter. And the second argument to +inserter must be implicitly convertible to the container's iterator, +else the call will not be a viable overload (allowing other functions in the +overload set to take precedence). Furthermore, the first parameter must have a +nested type named iterator, or again the binding to std::inserter +is not viable. Contrast this with the current situation +where any type can bind to Container or Iterator and those +types need not be anything closely related to containers or iterators. +

      + +

      +This can adversely impact well written code. Consider: +

      + +
      #include <iterator>
      +#include <string>
      +
      +namespace my
      +{
      +
      +template <class String>
      +struct my_type {};
      +
      +struct my_container
      +{
      +template <class String>
      +void push_back(const my_type<String>&);
      +};
      +
      +template <class String>
      +void inserter(const my_type<String>& m, my_container& c) {c.push_back(m);}
      +
      +}  // my
      +
      +int main()
      +{
      +    my::my_container c;
      +    my::my_type<std::string> m;
      +    inserter(m, c);
      +}
      +
      + +

      +Today this code fails because the call to inserter binds to +std::inserter instead of to my::inserter. However with the +proposed change std::inserter will no longer be a viable function which +leaves only my::inserter in the overload resolution set. Everything +works as the client intends. +

      + +

      +To make matters a little more insidious, the above example works today if you +simply change the first argument to an rvalue: +

      + +
          inserter(my::my_type(), c);
      +
      + +

      +It will also work if instantiated with some string type other than +std::string (or any other std type). It will also work if +<iterator> happens to not get included. +

      + +

      +And it will fail again for such inocuous reaons as my_type or +my_container privately deriving from any std type. +

      + +

      +It seems unfortunate that such simple changes in the client's code can result +in such radically differing behavior. +

      562. stringbuf ctor inefficient

      Discussion:

      +

      + +For better efficiency, the requirement on the stringbuf ctor that +takes a string argument should be loosened up to let it set +epptr() beyond just one past the last initialized +character just like overflow() has been changed to be +allowed to do (see issue 432). That way the first call to +sputc() on an object won't necessarily cause a call to +overflow. The corresponding change should be made to the +string overload of the str() member function. + +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      + +Change 27.7.1.1, p3 of the Working Draft, N1804, as follows: + +

      + +
      explicit basic_stringbuf(const basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>& str,
      +               ios_base::openmode which = ios_base::in | ios_base::out);
      +
      + +

      +-3- Effects: Constructs an object of class basic_stringbuf, +initializing the base class with basic_streambuf() +(27.5.2.1), and initializing mode with which. +Then calls str(s). copies the content of +str into the basic_stringbuf underlying character +sequence. If which & ios_base::out is true, initializes the +output sequence such that pbase() points to the first underlying +character, epptr() points one past the last underlying character, and +pptr() is equal to epptr() if which & ios_base::ate +is true, otherwise pptr() is equal to pbase(). If +which & ios_base::in is true, initializes the input sequence such +that eback() and gptr() point to the first underlying +character and egptr() points one past the last underlying character. +

      +
      + +

      + +Change the Effects clause of the str() in 27.7.1.2, p2 to +read: + +

      +
      +

      +-2- Effects: Copies the contents of s into the +basic_stringbuf underlying character sequence and +initializes the input and output sequences according to mode. +If +mode & ios_base::out is true, initializes the output +sequence such that pbase() points to the first underlying character, +epptr() points one past the last underlying character, and pptr() +is equal to epptr() if mode & ios_base::in +is true, otherwise pptr() is equal to pbase(). If +mode & ios_base::in is true, initializes the input sequence +such that eback() and gptr() point to the first underlying +character and egptr() points one past the last underlying character. +

      + +

      + +-3- Postconditions: If mode & ios_base::out is true, +pbase() points to the first underlying character and +(epptr() >= pbase() + s.size()) holds; in addition, if +mode & ios_base::in is true, (pptr() == pbase() ++ s.data()) holds, otherwise (pptr() == pbase()) +is true. If mode & ios_base::in is true, +eback() points to the first underlying character, and +(gptr() == eback()) and (egptr() == eback() + +s.size()) hold. + +

      Discussion:

      +

      +According to Table 92 (unchanged by issue 432), when (way == +end) the newoff value in out mode is computed as +the difference between epptr() and pbase(). +

      +

      + +This value isn't meaningful unless the value of epptr() +can be precisely controlled by a program. That used to be possible +until we accepted the resolution of issue 432, but since then the +requirements on overflow() have been relaxed to allow it +to make more than 1 write position available (i.e., by setting +epptr() to some unspecified value past +pptr()). So after the first call to +overflow() positioning the output sequence relative to +end will have unspecified results. + +

      +

      + +In addition, in in|out mode, since (egptr() == +epptr()) need not hold, there are two different possible values +for newoff: epptr() - pbase() and +egptr() - eback(). + +

      + +streambuf::xsputn() is specified to have the effect of +"writing up to n characters to the output sequence as if by +repeated calls to sputc(c)." + +

      +

      + +Since sputc() is required to call overflow() when +(pptr() == epptr()) is true, strictly speaking +xsputn() should do the same. However, doing so would be +suboptimal in some interesting cases, such as in unbuffered mode or +when the buffer is basic_stringbuf. + +

      +

      + +Assuming calling overflow() is not really intended to be +required and the wording is simply meant to describe the general +effect of appending to the end of the sequence it would be worthwhile +to mention in xsputn() that the function is not actually +required to cause a call to overflow(). + +

      + +The array forms of unformatted input functions don't have well-defined +semantics for zero-element arrays in a couple of cases.

      Discussion:

      +

      +[tr.util.smartptr.shared.dest] says in its second bullet: +

      + +

      +"If *this shares ownership with another shared_ptr instance (use_count() > 1), +decrements that instance's use count." +

      + +

      +The problem with this formulation is that it presupposes the existence of an +"use count" variable that can be decremented and that is part of the state of a +shared_ptr instance (because of the "that instance's use count".) +

      + +

      +This is contrary to the spirit of the rest of the specification that carefully +avoids to require an use count variable. Instead, use_count() is specified to +return a value, a number of instances. +

      + +

      +In multithreaded code, the usual implicit assumption is that a shared variable +should not be accessed by more than one thread without explicit synchronization, +and by introducing the concept of an "use count" variable, the current wording +implies that two shared_ptr instances that share ownership cannot be destroyed +simultaneously. +

      + +

      +In addition, if we allow the interpretation that an use count variable is part +of shared_ptr's state, this would lead to other undesirable consequences WRT +multiple threads. For example, +

      + +
      p1 = p2;
      +
      + +

      +would now visibly modify the state of p2, a "write" operation, requiring a lock. +

      • If *this is empty or shares ownership with another +shared_ptr instance (use_count() > 1), there are no side effects.
      • +
      • If *this shares ownership with another shared_ptr instance +(use_count() > 1), decrements that instance's use count.

      + +

      +[Note: since the destruction of *this decreases the number of instances in +*this's ownership group by one, all shared_ptr instances that share ownership +with *this will report an use_count() that is one lower than its previous value +after *this is destroyed. --end note] +

      +In 25.1.4 Find First [lib.alg.find.first], the two iterator type parameters to +find_first_of are specified to require Forward Iterators, as follows: +

      + +The description of the allocator member function +allocate() requires that the hint argument be +either 0 or a value previously returned from allocate(). +Footnote 227 further suggests that containers may pass the address of +an adjacent element as this argument. + +

      +

      + +I believe that either the footnote is wrong or the normative +requirement that the argument be a value previously returned from a +call to allocate() is wrong. The latter is supported by +the resolution to issue 20-004 proposed in c++std-lib-3736 by Nathan +Myers. In addition, the hint is an ordinary void* and not the +pointer type returned by allocate(), with +the two types potentially being incompatible and the requirement +impossible to satisfy. + +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +The resolution of issue 60 changed basic_ostream::flush() +so as not to require it to behave as an unformatted output function. +That has at least two in my opinion problematic consequences: + +

      +

      + +First, flush() now calls rdbuf()->pubsync() +unconditionally, without regard to the state of the stream. I can't +think of any reason why flush() should behave differently +from the vast majority of stream functions in this respect. + +

      +

      + +Second, flush() is not required to catch exceptions from +pubsync() or set badbit in response to such +events. That doesn't seem right either, as most other stream functions +do so. + +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      + +I propose to revert the resolution of issue 60 with respect to +flush(). Specifically, I propose to change 27.6.2.6, p7 +as follows: + +

      + +

      +Effects: Behaves as an unformatted output function (as described +in 27.6.2.6, paragraph 1). If rdbuf() is not a null +pointer, constructs a sentry object. If this object returns +true when converted to a value of type bool the function +calls rdbuf()->pubsync(). If that function returns +-1 calls setstate(badbit) (which may throw +ios_base::failure (27.4.4.3)). Otherwise, if the +sentry object returns false, does nothing.Does +not behave as an unformatted output function (as described in +27.6.2.6, paragraph 1). +

      586. string inserter not a formatted function

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +Section and paragraph numbers in this paper are relative to the +working draft document number N2009 from 4/21/2006. + +

      + +

      + +The basic_string extractor in 21.3.7.9, p1 is clearly +required to behave as a formatted input function, as is the +std::getline() overload for string described in p7. + +

      +

      + +However, the basic_string inserter described in p5 of the +same section has no such requirement. This has implications on how the +operator responds to exceptions thrown from xsputn() +(formatted output functions are required to set badbit +and swallow the exception unless badbit is also set in +exceptions(); the string inserter doesn't have any such +requirement). + +

      +

      + +I don't see anything in the spec for the string inserter that would +justify requiring it to treat exceptions differently from all other +similar operators. (If it did, I think it should be made this explicit +by saying that the operator "does not behave as a formatted output +function" as has been made customary by the adoption of the resolution +of issue 60). + +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      + +I propose to change the Effects clause in 21.3.7.9, p5, as follows: + +

      +
      +

      + +Effects: Begins by constructing a sentry object k as if k +were constructed by typename basic_ostream<charT, +traits>::sentry k (os). If bool(k) is +true, Behaves as a formatted output function +(27.6.2.5.1). After constructing a sentry object, if +this object returns true when converted to a value of +type bool, determines padding as described in +22.2.2.2.2, then inserts the resulting sequence of characters +seq as if by calling os.rdbuf()->sputn(seq , +n), where n is the larger of +os.width() and str.size(); then calls +os.width(0). If the call to sputn fails, calls +os.setstate(ios_base::failbit). + +

      +
      +

      + +This proposed resilution assumes the resolution of issue 394 (i.e., +that all formatted output functions are required to set +ios_base::badbit in response to any kind of streambuf +failure), and implicitly assumes that a return value of +sputn(seq, n) other than n +indicates a failure. + +

      +There appears to be no requirements on the InputIterators used in sequences in 23.1.1 in +terms of their value_type, and the requirements in 23.1.2 appear to be overly strict +(requires InputIterator::value_type be the same type as the container's value_type). +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      +Change 23.1.2 p7: +

      + +

      +In Table 84, X is an associative container class, a is a value +of X, a_uniq is a value of X when X supports +unique keys, and a_eq is a value of X when X supports +multiple keys, i and j satisfy input iterator requirements and +refer to elements of implicitly convertible to +value_type, [i, j) is a valid range, p is a valid +iterator to a, q is a valid dereferenceable iterator to +a, [q1, q2) is a valid range in a, t is a +value of X::value_type, k is a value of X::key_type +and c is a value of type X::key_compare. +

      +

      +Clause 18.3 of the current Working Paper (N2009) deals with the new C++ headers +<cstdint> and <stdint.h>. These are of course based on the C99 header +<stdint.h>, and were part of TR1. +

      + +

      +Per 18.3.1/1, these headers define a number of macros and function macros. +While the WP does not mention __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS in this context, C99 +footnotes do mention __STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS.

      594. Disadvantages of defining Swappable in terms of CopyConstructible and Assignable

      +

      Discussion:

      + +

      +It seems undesirable to define the Swappable requirement in terms of +CopyConstructible and Assignable requirements. And likewise, once the +MoveConstructible and MoveAssignable requirements (N1860) have made it +into the Working Draft, it seems undesirable to define the Swappable +requirement in terms of those requirements. Instead, it appears +preferable to have the Swappable requirement defined exclusively in +terms of the existence of an appropriate swap function. +

      + +

      +Section 20.1.4 [lib.swappable] of the current Working Draft (N2009) +says: +

      + +

      +The Swappable requirement is met by satisfying one or more of the +following conditions:

      +
        +
      • +T is Swappable if T satisfies the CopyConstructible requirements +(20.1.3) and the Assignable requirements (23.1); +
      • +
      • +T is Swappable if a namespace scope function named swap exists in the +same namespace as the definition of T, such that the expression +swap(t,u) is valid and has the semantics described in Table 33. +
      • +
      +
      + +

      +I can think of three disadvantages of this definition: +

      + +
        +
      1. +

        +If a client's type T satisfies the first condition (T is both +CopyConstructible and Assignable), the client cannot stop T from +satisfying the Swappable requirement without stopping T from +satisfying the first condition. +

        +

        +A client might want to stop T from satisfying the Swappable +requirement, because swapping by means of copy construction and +assignment might throw an exception, and she might find a throwing +swap unacceptable for her type. On the other hand, she might not feel +the need to fully implement her own swap function for this type. In +this case she would want to be able to simply prevent algorithms that +would swap objects of type T from being used, e.g., by declaring a +swap function for T, and leaving this function purposely undefined. +This would trigger a link error, if an attempt would be made to use +such an algorithm for this type. For most standard library +implementations, this practice would indeed have the effect of +stopping T from satisfying the Swappable requirement. +

        +
      2. +
      3. +

        +A client's type T that does not satisfy the first condition can not be +made Swappable by providing a specialization of std::swap for T. +

        +

        +While I'm aware about the fact that people have mixed feelings about +providing a specialization of std::swap, it is well-defined to do so. +It sounds rather counter-intuitive to say that T is not Swappable, if +it has a valid and semantically correct specialization of std::swap. +Also in practice, providing such a specialization will have the same +effect as satisfying the Swappable requirement. +

        +
      4. +
      5. +

        +For a client's type T that satisfies both conditions of the Swappable +requirement, it is not specified which of the two conditions prevails. +After reading section 20.1.4 [lib.swappable], one might wonder whether +objects of T will be swapped by doing copy construction and +assignments, or by calling the swap function of T. +

        +

        +I'm aware that the intention of the Draft is to prefer calling the +swap function of T over doing copy construction and assignments. Still +in my opinion, it would be better to make this clear in the wording of +the definition of Swappable. +

        +
      6. +
      + +

      +I would like to have the Swappable requirement defined in such a way +that the following code fragment will correctly swap two objects of a +type T, if and only if T is Swappable: +

      + +
         using std::swap;
      +   swap(t, u);  // t and u are of type T.
      +
      + +

      +This is also the way Scott Meyers recommends calling a swap function, +in Effective C++, Third Edition, item 25. +

      + +

      +Most aspects of this issue have been dealt with in a discussion on +comp.std.c++ about the Swappable requirement, from 13 September to 4 +October 2006, including valuable input by David Abrahams, Pete Becker, +Greg Herlihy, Howard Hinnant and others. +

      + +

      +This wording I suggested would also make overloads visible in the same scope as +the `using std::swap` valid for Swappable requirements; a more complex wording +limiting the non-ADL overload set to std::swap might be required. +

      +
      +1 Effects: Behaves the same as C99 function cabs, defined in
      +  subclause 7.3.8.1.
      +----- SNIP -----
      +
      + +

      +The current C++0X draft document (n2009.pdf) adopted this +definition in chapter 26.3.1 (under the comment // 26.3.7 values) +and 26.3.7/7. +

      +

      +But in C99 (ISO/IEC 9899:1999 as well as the 9899:TC2 draft document +n1124), the referenced subclause reads +

      + +
      ----- SNIP -----
      +7.3.8.1 The cabs functions
      +
      +  Synopsis
      +
      +1 #include <complex.h>
      +  double cabs(double complex z);
      +  float cabsf(float complex z);
      +  long double cabsl(long double z);
      +
      +  Description
      +
      +2 The cabs functions compute the complex absolute value (also called
      +  norm, modulus, or magnitude) of z.
      +
      +  Returns
      +
      +3 The cabs functions return the complex absolute value.
      +----- SNIP -----
      +
      + +

      +Note that the return type of the cabs*() functions is not a complex +type. Thus, they are equivalent to the already well established + template<class T> T abs(const complex<T>& x); +(26.2.7/2 in ISO/IEC 14882:1998, 26.3.7/2 in the current draft +document n2009.pdf). +

      +

      +So either the return value of fabs() is specified wrongly, or fabs() +does not behave the same as C99's cabs*(). +

      + +Possible Resolutions + +

      +This depends on the intention behind the introduction of fabs(). +

      +

      +If the intention was to provide a /complex/ valued function that +calculates the magnitude of its argument, this should be +explicitly specified. In TR1, the categorization under "C +compatibility" is definitely wrong, since C99 does not provide +such a complex valued function. +

      +

      +Also, it remains questionable if such a complex valued function +is really needed, since complex<T> supports construction and +assignment from real valued arguments. There is no difference +in observable behaviour between +

      +
        complex<double> x, y;
      +  y = fabs(x);
      +  complex<double> z(fabs(x));
      +
      +

      +and +

      +
        complex<double> x, y;
      +  y = abs(x);
      +  complex<double> z(abs(x));
      +
      +

      +If on the other hand the intention was to provide the intended +functionality of C99, fabs() should be either declared deprecated +or (for C++0X) removed from the standard, since the functionality +is already provided by the corresponding overloads of abs(). +

      + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +Bill believes that abs() is a suitable overload. We should remove fabs(). +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      Discussion:

      +

      +In testing 27.9.1.4 [filebuf.members], Table 112 (in the latest N2009 draft), we invoke +

      +
         ostr.open("somename", ios_base::out | ios_base::in | ios_base::app)
      +
      +

      +and we expect the open to fail, because out|in|app is not listed in +Table 92, and just before the table we see very specific words: +

      +

      + If mode is not some combination of flags shown in the table + then the open fails. +

      +

      +But the corresponding table in the C standard, 7.19.5.3, provides two +modes "a+" and "a+b", to which the C++ modes out|in|app and +out|in|app|binary would presumably apply. +

      +

      +We would like to argue that the intent of Table 112 was to match the +semantics of 7.19.5.3 and that the omission of "a+" and "a+b" was +unintentional. (Otherwise there would be valid and useful behaviors +available in C file I/O which are unavailable using C++, for no +valid functional reason.) +

      +

      +We further request that the missing modes be explicitly restored to +the WP, for inclusion in C++0x. +

      + +

      [ +Martin adds: +]

      + + +

      +...besides "a+" and "a+b" the C++ table is also missing a row +for a lone app bit which in at least two current implementation +as well as in Classic Iostreams corresponds to the C stdio "a" +mode and has been traditionally documented as implying ios::out. +Which means the table should also have a row for in|app meaning +the same thing as "a+" already proposed in the issue. +

      + + +

      +

      +I would like to +ask, what where the reason for the decision to +define the semantics of the integral conversion of the decimal types, namely +

      +
      "operator long long() const;
      +
      +     Returns: Returns the result of the 
      +conversion of *this to the type long long, as if 
      +performed by the expression llrounddXX(*this)."
      +
      +

      +where XX stands for either 32, 64, or 128, +corresponding to the proper decimal type. The +exact meaning of llrounddXX is not given in that +paper, so I compared it to the corresponding +definition given in C99, 2nd edition (ISO 9899), which says in 7.12.9.7 p. 2: +

      +

      +"The lround and llround functions round their +argument to the nearest integer value, +rounding halfway cases away from zero, regardless +of the current rounding direction. [..]" +

      +

      +Now considering the fact that integral conversion +of the usual floating-point types ("4.9 +Floating-integral conversions") has truncation +semantic I wonder why this conversion behaviour +has not been transferred for the decimal types. +

      +

      +Robert comments: +

      +

      +Also, there is a further error in the Returns: clause for converting decimal::decimal128 to long long. It currently calls llroundd64, not llroundd128. +

      +

      +In c++std-lib-17197, Martin writes: +

      +

      +The extended_num_get and extended_num_put facets are designed +to store a reference to a num_get or num_put facet which the +extended facets delegate the parsing and formatting of types +other than decimal. One form of the extended facet's ctor (the +default ctor and the size_t overload) obtains the reference +from the global C++ locale while the other form takes this +reference as an argument. +

      +

      +The problem with storing a reference to a facet in another +object (as opposed to storing the locale object in which the +facet is installed) is that doing so bypasses the reference +counting mechanism designed to prevent a facet that is still +being referenced (i.e., one that is still installed in some +locale) from being destroyed when another locale that contains +it is destroyed. Separating a facet reference from the locale +it comes from van make it cumbersome (and in some cases might +even make it impossible) for programs to prevent invalidating +the reference. (The danger of this design is highlighted in +the paper.) +

      +

      +This problem could be easily avoided by having the extended +facets store a copy of the locale from which they would extract +the base facet either at construction time or when needed. To +make it possible, the forms of ctors of the extended facets that +take a reference to the base facet would need to be changed to +take a locale argument instead. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +1. Change the extended_num_get synopsis in 3.10.2 as follows: +

      +
                  extended_num_get(const std::num_get<charT, InputIterator> std::locale & b, size_t refs = 0);
      +
      +            /* ... */
      +
      +            // const std::num_get<charT, InputIterator> & base;        exposition only
      +            // std::locale baseloc;                                    exposition only
      +
      +

      +2. Change the description of the above constructor in 3.10.2.1: +

      +
                  extended_num_get(const std::num_get<charT, InputIterator> std::locale & b, size_t refs = 0);
      +
      +
      +
      +

      +Effects: Constructs an extended_num_get facet as if by: +

      +
             extended_num_get(const std::num_get<charT, InputIterator> std::locale & b, size_t refs = 0)
      +                : facet(refs), baseloc(b)
      +                { /* ... */ }
      +
      +
      +

      +Notes: Care must be taken by the implementation to ensure that the lifetime of the facet referenced by base exceeds that of the resulting extended_num_get facet. +

      +
      +

      +3. Change the Returns: clause for do_get(iter_type, iter_type, ios_base &, ios_base::iostate &, bool &) const, et al to +

      +

      +Returns: base std::use_facet<std::num_get<charT, InputIterator> >(baseloc).get(in, end, str, err, val). +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +In Berlin, WG14 decided to drop the <decfloat.h> header. The contents of that header have been moved into <float.h>. For the sake of C compatibility, we should make corresponding changes. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +1. Change the heading of subclause 3.4, "Headers <cdecfloat> and <decfloat.h>" to "Additions to headers <cfloat> and <float.h>." +

      +

      +2. Change the text of subclause 3.4 as follows: +

      +
      +

      +The standard C++ headers <cfloat> and <float.h> define characteristics of the floating-point types float, double, and long double. Their contents remain unchanged by this Technical Report. +

      +

      +Headers <cdecfloat> and <decfloat.h> define characteristics of the decimal floating-point types decimal32, decimal64, and decimal128. As well, <decfloat.h> defines the convenience typedefs _Decimal32, _Decimal64, and _Decimal128, for compatibilty with the C programming language. +

      +

      +The header <cfloat> is described in [tr.c99.cfloat]. The header <float.h> is described in [tr.c99.floath]. These headers are extended by this Technical Report to define characteristics of the decimal floating-point types decimal32, decimal64, and decimal128. As well, <float.h> is extended to define the convenience typedefs _Decimal32, _Decimal64, and _Decimal128 for compatibility with the C programming language. +

      +
      +

      +3. Change the heading of subclause 3.4.1, "Header <cdecfloat> synopsis" to "Additions to header <cfloat> synopsis." +

      +

      +4. Change the heading of subclause 3.4.2, "Header <decfloat.h> synopsis" to "Additions to header <float.h> synopsis." +

      +

      +5. Change the contents of 3.4.2 as follows: +

      +
            #include <cdecfloat>
      +
      +      // C-compatibility convenience typedefs:
      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +My suggestion is that implementers of both tr1::function and its +official C++0x successor be explicitly encouraged (but not required) to +optimize for the cases mentioned above, i.e., function pointers and +small function objects. They could do this by using a small internal +buffer akin to the buffer used by implementations of the small string +optimization. (That would make this the small functor optimization -- +SFO :-}) The form of this encouragement could be a note in the standard +akin to footnote 214 of the current standard. +

      + +

      +Dave Abrahams notes: +

      + +

      +"shall not throw exceptions" should really be "nothing," both to be more +grammatical and to be consistent with existing wording in the standard. +

      + +

      +Doug Gregor comments: I think this is a good idea. Currently, implementations of +tr1::function are required to have non-throwing constructors and assignment +operators when the target function object is a function pointer or a +reference_wrapper. The common case, however, is for a tr1::function to store +either an empty function object or a member pointer + an object pointer. +

      +

      +The function implementation in the upcoming Boost 1.34.0 uses the +"SFO", so that the function objects for typical bind expressions like +

      +
      bind(&X::f, this, _1, _2, _3)
      +
      + +

      +do not require heap allocation when stored in a boost::function. I +believe Dinkumware's implementation also performs this optimization. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Revise 20.5.14.2.1 p6 [func.wrap.func.con] to add a note as follows: +

      + +
      +

      +Throws: shall not throw exceptions if f's target is a function +pointer or a function object passed via reference_wrapper. Otherwise, +may throw bad_alloc or any exception thrown by the copy constructor of +the stored function object. +

      +

      +Note: Implementations are encouraged to avoid the use of dynamically +allocated memory for "small" function objects, e.g., where f's target +is an object holding only a pointer or reference to an object and a member +function pointer (a "bound member function"). +

      +18.2.1.2 55 states that "A type is modulo if it is possible to add two +positive numbers together and have a result that wraps around to a +third number that is less". +This seems insufficient for the following reasons: +

      + +
        +
      1. Doesn't define what that value received is.
      2. +
      3. Doesn't state the result is repeatable

      +Section 18.3.1.5 [numeric.special] starts out by saying that "All members shall be provided +for all specializations." +

      +

      +Then it goes on to show specializations for float and bool, where one member +is missing (max_digits10). +

      + +

      +Maarten Kronenburg adds: +

      + +

      +I agree, just adding the comment that the exact number of decimal digits +is digits * ln(radix) / ln(10), where probably this real number is +rounded downward for digits10, and rounded upward for max_digits10 +(when radix=10, then digits10=max_digits10). +Why not add this exact definition also to the standard, so the user +knows what these numbers exactly mean. +

      + +

      +Howard adds: +

      + +

      +For reference, here are the correct formulas from +N1822: +

      digits10 = floor((digits-1) * log10(2))
      +max_digits10 = ceil((1 + digits) * log10(2))
      +

      +

      +I would respectfully request an issue be opened with the intention to +clarify the wording for size() == 0 for cshift. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change 26.6.2.7 [valarray.members], paragraph 10: +

      + +
      + +
      valarray<T> cshift(int n) const;
      +
      + +
      +

      +This function returns an object of class valarray<T>, of +length size(), each of whose elements I is +(*this)[(I + n ) % size()]. Thus, if element zero is taken as +the leftmost element, a positive value of n shifts the elements +circularly left n places. that is a circular shift of *this. If +element zero is taken as the leftmost element, a non-negative value of +n shifts the elements circularly left n places and a +negative value of n shifts the elements circularly right +-n places. +

      +
      +
      + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      +We do not believe that there is any real ambiguity about what happens +when size() == 0, but we do believe that spelling this out as a C++ +expression causes more trouble that it solves. The expression is +certainly wrong when n < 0, since the sign of % with negative arguments +is implementation defined. +

      +The wording for longjmp is confusing. +

      +

      +18.10 [support.runtime] -4- Other runtime support +

      +

      +The function signature longjmp(jmp_buf jbuf, int val) has more restricted +behavior in this International Standard. If any automatic objects would +be destroyed by a thrown exception transferring control to another +(destination) point in the program, then a call to longjmp(jbuf, val) that +the throw point that transfers control to the same (destination) point has +undefined behavior. +

      +

      +Someone at Google thinks that should say "then a call to longjmp(jbuf, val) +*at* the throw point that transfers control". +

      +

      +Bill Gibbons thinks it should say something like "If any automatic objects +would be destroyed by an exception thrown at the point of the longjmp and +caught only at the point of the setjmp, the behavior is undefined." +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +In general, accept Bill Gibbons' recommendation, +but add "call" to indicate that the undefined behavior +comes from the dynamic call, not from its presence in the code. +In 18.10 [support.runtime] paragraph 4, change +

      + +

      +The function signature longjmp(jmp_buf jbuf, int val) has more +restricted behavior in this International Standard. If any automatic +objects would be destroyed by a thrown exception transferring control to another +(destination) point in the program, then a call to longjmp(jbuf, val) +that the throw point that transfers control to the same (destination) point has +undefined behavior. A setjmp/longjmp call pair has +undefined behavior if replacing the setjmp and longjmp by +catch and throw would destroy any automatic objects. +

      +

      621. non-const copy assignment operators of helper arrays

      Discussion:

      +

      + +The computed and "fill" assignment operators of valarray +helper array class templates (slice_array, +gslice_array, mask_array, and +indirect_array) are const member functions of each class +template (the latter by the resolution of 123 +since they have reference semantics and thus do not affect +the state of the object on which they are called. However, the copy +assignment operators of these class templates, which also have +reference semantics, are non-const. The absence of constness opens +the door to speculation about whether they really are intended to have +reference semantics (existing implementations vary widely). + +

      + +

      +Pre-Kona, Martin adds: +

      + +

      +I realized that adding the const qualifier to the +functions as I suggested would break the const correctness of the +classes. A few possible solutions come to mind: +

      + +
        +
      1. Add the const qualifier to the return types of these functions.
      2. +
      3. Change the return type of all the functions to void to match +the signatures of all the other assignment operators these classes +define.
      4. +
      5. Prohibit the copy assignment of these classes by declaring the +copy assignment operators private (as is done and documented by +some implementations).
      6. +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      + +Declare the copy assignment operators of all four helper array +class templates const. + +

      +

      + +Specifically, make the following edits: + +

      +

      + +Change the signature in 26.6.5 [template.slice.array] and +26.6.5.1 [slice.arr.assign] as follows: + +

      +
      +const slice_array& operator= (const slice_array&) const;
      +
      +        
      +

      + +Change the signature in 26.6.7 [template.gslice.array] and +26.6.7.1 [gslice.array.assign] as follows: + +

      +
      +

      622. behavior of filebuf dtor and close on error

      +

      Section: 27.9.1.17 [fstream.members] Status: CD1 + Submitter: Martin Sebor Opened: 2007-01-20 Last modified: 2010-10-29

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +basic_filebuf dtor is specified to have the following +straightforward effects: + +

      +

      + +Effects: Destroys an object of class +basic_filebuf. Calls close(). + +

      +

      + +close() does a lot of potentially complicated processing, +including calling overflow() to write out the termination +sequence (to bring the output sequence to its initial shift +state). Since any of the functions called during the processing can +throw an exception, what should the effects of an exception be on the +dtor? Should the dtor catch and swallow it or should it propagate it +to the caller? The text doesn't seem to provide any guidance in this +regard other than the general restriction on throwing (but not +propagating) exceptions from destructors of library classes in +17.6.4.12 [res.on.exception.handling]. + +

      +

      + +Further, the last thing close() is specified to do is +call fclose() to close the FILE pointer. The +last sentence of the Effects clause reads: + +

      +

      + +... If any of the calls to overflow or +std::fclose fails then close fails. + +

      +

      + +This suggests that close() might be required to call +fclose() if and only if none of the calls to +overflow() fails, and avoid closing the FILE +otherwise. This way, if overflow() failed to flush out +the data, the caller would have the opportunity to try to flush it +again (perhaps after trying to deal with whatever problem may have +caused the failure), rather than losing it outright. + +

      +

      + +On the other hand, the function's Postcondition specifies that +is_open() == false, which suggests that it should call +fclose() unconditionally. However, since +Postcondition clauses are specified for many functions in the +standard, including constructors where they obviously cannot apply +after an exception, it's not clear whether this Postcondition +clause is intended to apply even after an exception. + +

      +

      + +It might be worth noting that the traditional behavior (Classic +Iostreams fstream::close() and C fclose()) +is to close the FILE unconditionally, regardless of +errors. + +

      + +

      [ +See 397 and 418 for related issues. +]

      + + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      + +After discussing this on the reflector (see the thread starting with +c++std-lib-17650) we propose that close() be clarified to +match the traditional behavior, that is to close the FILE +unconditionally, even after errors or exceptions. In addition, we +propose the dtor description be amended so as to explicitly require it +to catch and swallow any exceptions thrown by close(). + +

      +

      + +Specifically, we propose to make the following edits in +27.9.1.4 [filebuf.members]: + +

      +
      +
      +basic_filebuf<charT,traits>* close();
      +
      +            
      +

      + +Effects: If is_open() == false, returns a null +pointer. If a put area exists, calls +overflow(traits::eof()) to flush characters. If the last +virtual member function called on *this (between +underflow, overflow, seekoff, +and seekpos) was overflow then calls +a_codecvt.unshift (possibly several times) to determine a +termination sequence, inserts those characters and calls +overflow(traits::eof()) again. Finally, regardless +of whether any of the preceding calls fails or throws an exception, +the function it closes the file ("as if" by calling +std::fclose(file)).334) If any of the calls +made by the functionto overflow +or, including std::fclose, +fails then close fails by returning a null pointer. +If one of these calls throws an exception, the exception is caught and +rethrown after closing the file. + +

      +
      +

      + +And to make the following edits in 27.9.1.2 [filebuf.cons]. + +

      +
      +
      +virtual ~basic_filebuf();
      +
      +            
      +

      + +Effects: Destroys an object of class +basic_filebuf<charT,traits>. Calls +close(). If an exception occurs during the +destruction of the object, including the call to close(), +the exception is caught but not rethrown (see +17.6.4.12 [res.on.exception.handling]). + +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +27.2.1 [iostream.limits.imbue] specifies that "no function described in +clause 27 except for ios_base::imbue causes any instance +of basic_ios::imbue or +basic_streambuf::imbue to be called." + +

      +

      + +That contradicts the Effects clause for +basic_streambuf::pubimbue() which requires the function +to do just that: call basic_streambuf::imbue(). + +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      + +To fix this, rephrase the sentence above to allow +pubimbue to do what it was designed to do. Specifically. +change 27.2.1 [iostream.limits.imbue], p1 to read: + +

      624. valarray assignment and arrays of unequal length

      +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +The behavior of the valarray copy assignment operator is +defined only when both sides have the same number of elements and the +spec is explicit about assignments of arrays of unequal lengths having +undefined behavior. + +

      +

      + +However, the generalized subscripting assignment operators overloaded +on slice_array et al (26.6.2.2 [valarray.assign]) don't have any +such restriction, leading the reader to believe that the behavior of +these overloads is well defined regardless of the lengths of the +arguments. + +

      +

      + +For example, based on the reading of the spec the behavior of the +snippet below can be expected to be well-defined: + +

      +
          const std::slice from_0_to_3 (0, 3, 1);   // refers to elements 0, 1, 2
      +    const std::valarray<int> a (1, 3);        // a = { 1, 1, 1 }
      +    std::valarray<int>       b (2, 4);        // b = { 2, 2, 2, 2 }
      +
      +    b = a [from_0_to_3];
      +        
      +

      + +In practice, b may end up being { 1, 1, 1 }, +{ 1, 1, 1, 2 }, or anything else, indicating that +existing implementations vary. + +

      + +

      +Quoting from Section 3.4, Assignment operators, of Al Vermeulen's +Proposal for Standard C++ Array Classes (see c++std-lib-704; +N0308): +

      +

      + ...if the size of the array on the right hand side of the equal + sign differs from the size of the array on the left, a run time + error occurs. How this error is handled is implementation + dependent; for compilers which support it, throwing an exception + would be reasonable. +

      + +

      +And see more history in +N0280. +

      + +

      + +It has been argued in discussions on the committee's reflector that +the semantics of all valarray assignment operators should +be permitted to be undefined unless the length of the arrays being +assigned is the same as the length of the one being assigned from. See +the thread starting at c++std-lib-17786. + +

      +

      + +In order to reflect such views, the standard must specify that the +size of the array referred to by the argument of the assignment must +match the size of the array under assignment, for example by adding a +Requires clause to 26.6.2.2 [valarray.assign] as follows: + +

      +

      + +Requires: The length of the array to which the argument refers +equals size(). + +

      + +

      + +Note that it's far from clear that such leeway is necessary in order +to implement valarray efficiently. + +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Insert new paragraph into 26.6.2.2 [valarray.assign]: +

      + +
      +
      valarray<T>& operator=(const slice_array<T>&); 
      +valarray<T>& operator=(const gslice_array<T>&); 
      +valarray<T>& operator=(const mask_array<T>&); 
      +valarray<T>& operator=(const indirect_array<T>&);
      +
      +
      +

      +Requires: The length of the array to which the argument refers +equals size(). +

      +

      +These operators allow the results of a generalized subscripting operation to be assigned directly to a valarray. +

      +
      +
      + + + + + +
      +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +Many member functions of basic_string are overloaded, +with some of the overloads taking a string argument, +others value_type*, others size_type, and +others still iterators. Often, the requirements on one of +the overloads are expressed in the form of Effects, +Throws, and in the Working Paper +(N2134) +also Remark clauses, while those on the rest of the overloads +via a reference to this overload and using a Returns clause. +

      + +

      +The difference between the two forms of specification is that per +17.5.1.4 [structure.specifications], p3, an Effects clause specifies +"actions performed by the functions," i.e., its observable +effects, while a Returns clause is "a description of the +return value(s) of a function" that does not impose any +requirements on the function's observable effects. +

      + +

      +Since only Notes are explicitly defined to be informative and +all other paragraphs are explicitly defined to be normative, like +Effects and Returns, the new Remark clauses also +impose normative requirements. +

      + +

      +So by this strict reading of the standard there are some member +functions of basic_string that are required to throw an +exception under some conditions or use specific traits members while +many other otherwise equivalent overloads, while obliged to return the +same values, aren't required to follow the exact same requirements +with regards to the observable effects. +

      + +

      +Here's an example of this problem that was precipitated by the change +from informative Notes to normative Remarks (presumably made to +address 424): +

      + +

      +In the Working Paper, find(string, size_type) contains a +Remark clause (which is just a Note in the current +standard) requiring it to use traits::eq(). +

      + +

      +find(const charT *s, size_type pos) is specified to +return find(string(s), pos) by a Returns clause +and so it is not required to use traits::eq(). However, +the Working Paper has replaced the original informative Note +about the function using traits::length() with a +normative requirement in the form of a Remark. Calling +traits::length() may be suboptimal, for example when the +argument is a very long array whose initial substring doesn't appear +anywhere in *this. +

      + +

      +Here's another similar example, one that existed even prior to the +introduction of Remarks: +

      + +

      + insert(size_type pos, string, size_type, size_type) is +required to throw out_of_range if pos > +size(). +

      + +

      +insert(size_type pos, string str) is specified to return +insert(pos, str, 0, npos) by a Returns clause and +so its effects when pos > size() are strictly speaking +unspecified. +

      + +

      +I believe a careful review of the current Effects and +Returns clauses is needed in order to identify all such +problematic cases. In addition, a review of the Working Paper should +be done to make sure that the newly introduced normative Remark +clauses do not impose any undesirable normative requirements in place +of the original informative Notes. +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +Section 26.2 [numeric.requirements], p1 suggests that a +valarray specialization on a type T that +satisfies the requirements enumerated in the paragraph is itself a +valid type on which valarray may be instantiated +(Footnote 269 makes this clear). I.e., +valarray<valarray<T> > is valid as long as +T is valid. However, since implementations of +valarray are permitted to initialize storage allocated by +the class by invoking the default ctor of T followed by +the copy assignment operator, such implementations of +valarray wouldn't work with (perhaps user-defined) +specializations of valarray whose assignment operator had +undefined behavior when the size of its argument didn't match the size +of *this. By "wouldn't work" I mean that it would +be impossible to resize such an array of arrays by calling the +resize() member function on it if the function used the +copy assignment operator after constructing all elements using the +default ctor (e.g., by invoking new value_type[N]) to +obtain default-initialized storage) as it's permitted to do. + +

      + +Stated more generally, the problem is that +valarray<valarray<T> >::resize(size_t) isn't +required or guaranteed to have well-defined semantics for every type +T that satisfies all requirements in +26.2 [numeric.requirements]. + +

      +

      + +I believe this problem was introduced by the adoption of the +resolution outlined in N0857, +Assignment of valarrays, from 1996. The copy assignment +operator of the original numerical array classes proposed in N0280, +as well as the one proposed in N0308 +(both from 1993), had well-defined semantics for arrays of unequal +size (the latter explicitly only when *this was empty; +assignment of non empty arrays of unequal size was a runtime error). + +

      +

      + +The justification for the change given in N0857 was the "loss of +performance [deemed] only significant for very simple operations on +small arrays or for architectures with very few registers." + +

      +

      + +Since tiny arrays on a limited subset of hardware architectures are +likely to be an exceedingly rare case (despite the continued +popularity of x86) I propose to revert the resolution and make the +behavior of all valarray assignment operators +well-defined even for non-conformal arrays (i.e., arrays of unequal +size). I have implemented this change and measured no significant +degradation in performance in the common case (non-empty arrays of +equal size). I have measured a 50% (and in some cases even greater) +speedup in the case of assignments to empty arrays versus calling +resize() first followed by an invocation of the copy +assignment operator. + +

      +
      +
      + +

      +20.9.5.1 [allocator.members] defines CopyConstructible which currently not +only defines the semantics of copy construction, but also restricts what an overloaded +operator& may do. I believe proposals are in the works (such as concepts +and rvalue reference) to decouple these two requirements. Indeed it is not evident +that we should disallow overloading operator& to return something other +than the address of *this. +

      + +

      +An example of when you want to overload operator& to return something +other than the object's address is proxy references such as vector<bool> +(or its replacement, currently code-named bit_vector). Taking the address of +such a proxy reference should logically yield a proxy pointer, which when dereferenced, +yields a copy of the original proxy reference again. +

      + +

      +On the other hand, some code truly needs the address of an object, and not a proxy +(typically for determining the identity of an object compared to a reference object). +boost has long recognized this dilemma and solved it with +boost::addressof. +It appears to me that this would be useful functionality for the default allocator. Adopting +this definition for allocator::address would free the standard of requiring +anything special from types which overload operator&. Issue 580 +is expected to make use of allocator::address mandatory for containers. +

      +

      +The table of allocator requirements in 20.2.5 [allocator.requirements] describes +allocator::address as: +

      +
      a.address(r)
      +a.address(s)
      +
      +

      +where r and s are described as: +

      +

      +a value of type X::reference obtained by the expression *p. +

      + +

      +and p is +

      + +

      +a value of type X::pointer, obtained by calling a1.allocate, +where a1 == a +

      + +

      +This all implies that to get the address of some value of type T that +value must have been allocated by this allocator or a copy of it. +

      + +

      +However sometimes container code needs to compare the address of an external value of +type T with an internal value. For example list::remove(const T& t) +may want to compare the address of the external value t with that of a value +stored within the list. Similarly vector or deque insert may +want to make similar comparisons (to check for self-referencing calls). +

      +Mandating that allocator::address can only be called for values which the +allocator allocated seems overly restrictive. +

      638. deque end invalidation during erase

      +

      +The standard states at 23.3.2.3 [deque.modifiers]/4: +

      +
      deque erase(...)
      +
      +

      +Effects: ... An erase at either end of the deque invalidates only +the iterators and the references to the erased elements. +

      +
      +

      +This does not state that iterators to end will be invalidated. +It needs to be amended in such a way as to account for end invalidation. +

      +

      +Something like: +

      +

      +Any time the last element is erased, iterators to end are invalidated. +

      + +

      +This would handle situations like: +

      +
      erase(begin(), end())
      +erase(end() - 1)
      +pop_back()
      +resize(n, ...) where n < size()
      +pop_front() with size() == 1
      +
      +
      + +

      [ +Post Kona, Steve LoBasso notes: +]

      + + +
      +My only issue with the proposed resolution is that it might not be clear +that pop_front() [where size() == 1] can invalidate past-the-end +iterators. +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change 23.3.2.3 [deque.modifiers], p4: +

      + +
      +
      iterator erase(const_iterator position); 
      +iterator erase(const_iterator first, const_iterator last);
      +
      + +
      +

      +-4- Effects: An erase in the middle of the deque +invalidates all the iterators and references to elements of the +deque and the past-the-end iterator. An erase at +either end of the deque invalidates only the iterators and the +references to the erased elements, except that erasing at the end +also invalidates the past-the-end iterator. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Table 98 and para 5 in 26.5.1.4 [rand.req.eng] specify +the IO insertion and extraction semantic of random +number engines. It can be shown, v.i., that the specification +of the extractor cannot guarantee to fulfill the requirement +from para 5: +

      + +

      +If a textual representation written via os << x was +subsequently read via is >> v, then x == v provided that +there have been no intervening invocations of x or of v. +

      + +

      +The problem is, that the extraction process described in +table 98 misses to specify that it will initially set the +if.fmtflags to ios_base::dec, see table 104: +

      + +

      +dec: converts integer input or generates integer output +in decimal base +

      + +

      +Proof: The following small program demonstrates the violation +of requirements (exception safety not fulfilled): +

      + +
      #include <cassert>
      +#include <ostream>
      +#include <iostream>
      +#include <iomanip>
      +#include <sstream>
      +
      +class RanNumEngine {
      +  int state;
      +public:
      +  RanNumEngine() : state(42) {}
      +
      +  bool operator==(RanNumEngine other) const {
      +      return state == other.state;
      +  }
      +
      +  template <typename Ch, typename Tr>
      +  friend std::basic_ostream<Ch, Tr>& operator<<(std::basic_ostream<Ch, Tr>& os, RanNumEngine engine) {
      +    Ch old = os.fill(os.widen(' ')); // Sets space character
      +    std::ios_base::fmtflags f = os.flags();
      +    os << std::dec << std::left << engine.state; // Adds ios_base::dec|ios_base::left
      +    os.fill(old); // Undo
      +    os.flags(f);
      +    return os;
      +  }
      +
      +  template <typename Ch, typename Tr>
      +  friend std::basic_istream<Ch, Tr>& operator>>(std::basic_istream<Ch, Tr>& is, RanNumEngine& engine) {
      +       // Uncomment only for the fix.
      +
      +    //std::ios_base::fmtflags f = is.flags();
      +    //is >> std::dec;
      +    is >> engine.state;
      +    //is.flags(f);
      +    return is;
      +  }
      +};
      +
      +int main() {
      +    std::stringstream s;
      +    s << std::setfill('#'); // No problem
      +        s << std::oct; // Yikes!
      +        // Here starts para 5 requirements:
      +    RanNumEngine x;
      +    s << x;
      +    RanNumEngine v;
      +    s >> v;
      +    assert(x == v); // Fails: 42 == 34
      +}
      +
      + +

      +A second, minor issue seems to be, that the insertion +description from table 98 unnecessarily requires the +addition of ios_base::fixed (which only influences floating-point +numbers). Its not entirely clear to me whether the proposed +standard does require that the state of random number engines +is stored in integral types or not, but I have the impression +that this is the indent, see e.g. p. 3 +

      + +

      +The specification of each random number engine defines the +size of its state in multiples of the size of its result_type. +

      + +

      +If other types than integrals are supported, then I wonder why +no requirements are specified for the precision of the stream. +

      + +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The header <functional> synopsis in 20.8 [function.objects] +contains the following two free comparison operator templates +for the function class template +

      + +
      template<class Function1, class Function2>
      +void operator==(const function<Function1>&, const function<Function2>&);
      +template<class Function1, class Function2>
      +void operator!=(const function<Function1>&, const function<Function2>&);
      +
      + +

      +which are nowhere described. I assume that they are relicts before the +corresponding two private and undefined member templates in the function +template (see 20.8.14.2 [func.wrap.func] and [func.wrap.func.undef]) have been introduced. The original free +function templates should be removed, because using an undefined entity +would lead to an ODR violation of the user. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Remove the above mentioned two function templates from +the header <functional> synopsis (20.8 [function.objects]) +

      659. istreambuf_iterator should have an operator->()

      +

      Section: 24.6.3 [istreambuf.iterator] Status: WP + Submitter: Niels Dekker Opened: 2007-03-25 Last modified: 2010-10-29

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Greg Herlihy has clearly demonstrated that a user defined input +iterator should have an operator->(), even if its +value type is a built-in type (comp.std.c++, "Re: Should any iterator +have an operator->() in C++0x?", March 2007). And as Howard +Hinnant remarked in the same thread that the input iterator +istreambuf_iterator doesn't have one, this must be a +defect! +

      +

      +Based on Greg's example, the following code demonstrates the issue: +

       #include <iostream> 
      + #include <fstream>
      + #include <streambuf> 
      +
      + typedef char C;
      + int main ()
      + {
      +   std::ifstream s("filename", std::ios::in);
      +   std::istreambuf_iterator<char> i(s);
      +
      +   (*i).~C();  // This is well-formed...
      +   i->~C();  // ... so this should be supported!
      + }
      +
      +

      +

      +Of course, operator-> is also needed when the value_type of +istreambuf_iterator is a class. +

      +

      +The operator-> could be implemented in various ways. For instance, +by storing the current value inside the iterator, and returning its +address. Or by returning a proxy, like operator_arrow_proxy, from +http://www.boost.org/boost/iterator/iterator_facade.hpp +

      +

      +I hope that the resolution of this issue will contribute to getting a +clear and consistent definition of iterator concepts. +

      + +

      [ +Kona (2007): The proposed resolution is inconsistent because the return +type of istreambuf_iterator::operator->() is specified to be pointer, +but the proposed text also states that "operator-> may return a proxy." +]

      + + +

      [ +Niels Dekker (mailed to Howard Hinnant): +]

      + +
      +

      +The proposed resolution does +not seem inconsistent to me. istreambuf_iterator::operator->() should +have istreambuf_iterator::pointer as return type, and this return type +may in fact be a proxy. +

      +

      +AFAIK, the resolution of 445 ("iterator_traits::reference +unspecified for some iterator categories") implies that for any iterator +class Iter, the return type of operator->() is Iter::pointer, by +definition. I don't think Iter::pointer needs to be a raw pointer. +

      +

      +Still I wouldn't mind if the text "operator-> may return a proxy" would +be removed from the resolution. I think it's up to the library +implementation, how to implement istreambuf_iterator::operator->(). As +longs as it behaves as expected: i->m should have the same effect as +(*i).m. Even for an explicit destructor call, i->~C(). The main issue +is just: istreambuf_iterator should have an operator->()! +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-04-30 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +Note that operator-> is now a requirement in the InputIterator concept, so +this issue cannot be ignored or existing valid programs will break when +compiled with an 0x library. +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-29 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +I agree with the observation that in principle the type 'pointer' may be a +proxy, and the words highlighting this are redundant. +

      +

      +However, in the current draught pointer is required to be exactly 'charT *' +by the derivation from std::iterator. At a minimum, the 4th parameter of +this base class template should become unspecified. That permits the +introduction of a proxy as a nested class in some further undocumented (not +even exposition-only) base. +

      +

      +It also permits the istream_iterator approach where the cached value is +stored in the iterator itself, and the iterator serves as its own proxy for +post-increment operator++ - removing the need for the existing +exposition-only nested class proxy. +

      +

      +Note that the current proxy class also has exactly the right properties to +serve as the pointer proxy too. This is likely to be a common case where an +InputIterator does not hold internal state but delegates to another class. +

      +

      +Proposed Resolution: +

      +

      +In addition to the current proposal: +

      +

      +24.6.3 [istreambuf.iterator] +

      +
      template<class charT, class traits = char_traits<charT> >
      +class istreambuf_iterator
      +  : public iterator<input_iterator_tag, charT,
      +                    typename traits::off_type, charT* unspecified, charT> {
      +
      +
      + +

      [ +2009-07 Frankfurt +]

      + + +
      +

      +Move the additional part into the proposed resolution, and wrap the +descriptive text in a Note. +

      +

      [Howard: done.]

      + +

      +Move to Ready. +

      +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add to the synopsis in 24.6.3 [istreambuf.iterator]: +

      + +
      charT operator*() const;
      +pointer operator->() const;
      +istreambuf_iterator<charT,traits>& operator++();
      +

      +
      + +

      +Change 24.6.3 [istreambuf.iterator], p1: +

      + +

      +The class template istreambuf_iterator reads successive +characters from the streambuf for which it was constructed. +operator* provides access to the current input character, if +any. [Note: operator-> may return a proxy. — +end note] Each time +operator++ is evaluated, the iterator advances to the next +input character. If the end of stream is reached +(streambuf_type::sgetc() returns traits::eof()), the +iterator becomes equal to the end of stream iterator value. The default +constructor istreambuf_iterator() and the constructor +istreambuf_iterator(0) both construct an end of stream iterator +object suitable for use as an end-of-range. +

      660. Missing Bitwise Operations

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      Section 20.8 [function.objects] provides function +objects for some unary and binary +operations, but others are missing. In a LWG reflector discussion, beginning +with c++std-lib-18078, pros and cons of adding some of the missing operations +were discussed. Bjarne Stroustrup commented "Why standardize what isn't used? +Yes, I see the chicken and egg problems here, but it would be nice to see a +couple of genuine uses before making additions."

      +

      A number of libraries, including Rogue Wave, GNU, Adobe ASL, and Boost, have +already added these functions, either publicly or for internal use. For example, +Doug Gregor commented: "Boost will also add ... (|, &, ^) in 1.35.0, because we +need those function +objects to represent various parallel +collective operations (reductions, prefix reductions, etc.) in the new Message +Passing Interface (MPI) library."

      +

      Because the bitwise operators have the strongest use cases, the proposed +resolution is limited to them.

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      To 20.8 [function.objects], Function objects, paragraph 2, add to the header +<functional> synopsis:

      +
      +
      template <class T> struct bit_and;
      +template <class T> struct bit_or;
      +template <class T> struct bit_xor;
      +
      +

      At a location in clause 20 to be determined by the Project Editor, add:

      +
      +

      The library provides basic function object classes for all of the bitwise + operators in the language ([expr.bit.and], [expr.or], [exp.xor]).

      +
      template <class T> struct bit_and : binary_function<T,T,T> {
      +  T operator()(const T& x , const T& y ) const;
      +};
      +
      +

      operator() returns x & y .

      +
      +
      template <class T> struct bit_or : binary_function<T,T,T> {
      +  T operator()(const T& x , const T& y ) const;
      +};
      +
      +

      operator() returns x | y .

      +
      +
      template <class T> struct bit_xor : binary_function<T,T,T> {
      +  T operator()(const T& x , const T& y ) const;
      +};
      +

      operator() returns x ^ y .

      Discussion:

      +

      +To the more drastic changes of 27.7.1.2.2 [istream.formatted.arithmetic] in the current draft N2134 belong +the explicit description of the extraction of the types short and int in +terms of as-if code fragments. +

      + +
        +
      1. +The corresponding as-if extractions in paragraph 2 and 3 will never +result in a change of the operator>> argument val, because the +contents of the local variable lval is in no case written into val. +Furtheron both fragments need a currently missing parentheses in the +beginning of the if-statement to be valid C++. +
      2. +
      3. +I would like to ask whether the omission of a similar explicit +extraction of unsigned short and unsigned int in terms of long - +compared to their corresponding new insertions, as described in 27.7.2.6.2 [ostream.inserters.arithmetic], is a deliberate decision or an +oversight. +
      4. +

        +iostate err = 0;

        +      err = ios_base::failbit;

        +}
        +setstate(err);
        +
        + +

        +Similarily in 27.7.1.2.2 [istream.formatted.arithmetic]/3 change the current as-if fragment +

        + +
        typedef num_get<charT,istreambuf_iterator<charT,traits> > numget;

      [ +Kona (2007): Note to the editor: the name lval in the call to use_facet +is incorrectly italicized in the code fragments corresponding to +operator>>(short &) and operator >>(int &).

      +22.4.1.4.2 [locale.codecvt.virtuals], para 7 says (regarding do_unshift): +

      +Effects: Places characters starting at to that should be appended to +terminate a sequence when the current stateT is given by +state.237) Stores no more than (to_limit - +to) destination elements, and leaves the to_next +pointer pointing one beyond the last element successfully stored. +codecvt<char, char, mbstate_t> stores no characters. +

      + +

      +The following objection has been raised: +

      + +

      +Since the C++ Standard permits a nontrivial conversion for the required +instantiations of codecvt, it is overly restrictive to say that +do_unshift must store no characters and return noconv. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +I am trying to understand how TR1 supports hex float (%a) output. +

      +

      +As far as I can tell, it does so via the following: +

      +

      +8.15 Additions to header <locale> [tr.c99.locale] +

      +

      +In subclause 22.4.2.2.2 [facet.num.put.virtuals], Table 58 Floating-point conversions, after +the line: +floatfield == ios_base::scientific %E +

      +

      +add the two lines: +

      +
      floatfield == ios_base::fixed | ios_base::scientific && !uppercase %a
      +floatfield == ios_base::fixed | ios_base::scientific %A 2
      +
      +

      +[Note: The additional requirements on print and scan functions, later +in this clause, ensure that the print functions generate hexadecimal +floating-point fields with a %a or %A conversion specifier, and that +the scan functions match hexadecimal floating-point fields with a %g +conversion specifier. end note] +

      +

      +Following the thread, in 22.4.2.2.2 [facet.num.put.virtuals], we find: +

      +

      +For conversion from a floating-point type, if (flags & fixed) != 0 or +if str.precision() > 0, then str.precision() is specified in the +conversion specification. +

      +

      +This would seem to imply that when floatfield == fixed|scientific, the +precision of the conversion specifier is to be taken from +str.precision(). Is this really what's intended? I sincerely hope +that I'm either missing something or this is an oversight. Please +tell me that the committee did not intend to mandate that hex floats +(and doubles) should by default be printed as if by %.6a. +

      + +

      [ +Howard: I think the fundamental issue we overlooked was that with %f, +%e, %g, the default precision was always 6. With %a the default +precision is not 6, it is infinity. So for the first time, we need to +distinguish between the default value of precision, and the precision +value 6. +]

      + + +

      672. Swappable requirements need updating

      +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The current Swappable is: +

      + +
      + + + + + +
      Table 37: Swappable requirements [swappable]
      expressionreturn typepost-condition
      swap(s,t)voidt has the value originally held by u, and u has the value originally +held by t
      +

      +The Swappable requirement is met by satisfying one or more of the following conditions: +

      +
        +
      • +T is Swappable if T satisfies the CopyConstructible requirements (Table 34) +and the CopyAssignable requirements (Table 36); +
      • +
      • +T is Swappable if a namespace scope function named swap exists in the same +namespace as the definition of T, such that the expression swap(t,u) is valid +and has the semantics described in this table. +
      • +
      +
      +
      + +

      +With the passage of rvalue reference into the language, Swappable needs to be updated to +require only MoveConstructible and MoveAssignable. This is a minimum. +

      + +

      +Additionally we may want to support proxy references such that the following code is acceptable: +

      + +
      namespace Mine {
      +
      +template <class T>
      +struct proxy {...};
      +
      +template <class T>
      +struct proxied_iterator
      +{
      +   typedef T value_type;
      +   typedef proxy<T> reference;
      +   reference operator*() const;
      +   ...
      +};
      +
      +struct A
      +{
      +   // heavy type, has an optimized swap, maybe isn't even copyable or movable, just swappable
      +   void swap(A&);
      +   ...
      +};
      +
      +void swap(A&, A&);
      +void swap(proxy<A>, A&);
      +void swap(A&, proxy<A>);
      +void swap(proxy<A>, proxy<A>);
      +
      +}  // Mine
      +
      +...
      +
      +Mine::proxied_iterator<Mine::A> i(...)
      +Mine::A a;
      +swap(*i1, a);
      +
      + +

      +I.e. here is a call to swap which the user enables swapping between a proxy to a class and the class +itself. We do not need to anything in terms of implementation except not block their way with overly +constrained concepts. That is, the Swappable concept should be expanded to allow swapping +between two different types for the case that one is binding to a user-defined swap. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      +Change 20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements]: +

      + +
      + +

      +-1- The template definitions in the C++ Standard Library refer to various +named requirements whose details are set out in tables 31-38. In these +tables, T is a type to be supplied by a C++ program +instantiating a template; a, b, and c are +values of type const T; s and t are modifiable +lvalues of type T; u is a value of type (possibly +const) T; and rv is a non-const +rvalue of type T. +

      + + + + + + + +
      Table 37: Swappable requirements [swappable]
      expressionreturn typepost-condition
      swap(s,t)voidt has the value originally +held by u, and +u has the value originally held +by t
      +

      +The Swappable requirement is met by satisfying one or more of the following conditions: +

      +
        +
      • +T is Swappable if T satisfies the +CopyConstructible MoveConstructible +requirements (Table 34 33) and the CopyAssignable MoveAssignable +requirements (Table 36 35); +
      • +
      • +T is Swappable if a namespace scope function named +swap exists in the same namespace as the definition of +T, such that the expression +swap(t,u) is valid and has the +semantics described in this table. +
      • +
      +
      +
      + + + +

      [ +Kona (2007): We like the change to the Swappable requirements to use +move semantics. The issue relating to the support of proxies is +separable from the one relating to move semantics, and it's bigger than +just swap. We'd like to address only the move semantics changes under +this issue, and open a separated issue (742) to handle proxies. Also, there +may be a third issue, in that the current definition of Swappable does +not permit rvalues to be operands to a swap operation, and Howard's +proposed resolution would allow the right-most operand to be an rvalue, +but it would not allow the left-most operand to be an rvalue (some swap +functions in the library have been overloaded to permit left operands to +swap to be rvalues). +]

      673. unique_ptr update

      Discussion:

      +

      +Since the publication of +N1856 +there have been a few small but significant advances which should be included into +unique_ptr. There exists a +example implmenation +for all of these changes. +

      + +
        + +
      • +

        +Even though unique_ptr<void> is not a valid use case (unlike for shared_ptr<void>), +unexpected cases to crop up which require the instantiation of the interface of unique_ptr<void> +even if it is never used. For example see +LWG 541 for how this accidently +happened to auto_ptr. I believe the most robust way to protect unique_ptr against this +type of failure is to augment the return type of unique_ptr<T>:operator*() with +add_lvalue_reference<T>::type. This means that given an instantiated unique_ptr<void> +the act of dereferencing it will simply return void instead of causing a compile time failure. +This is simpler than creating a unique_ptr<void> specialization which isn't robust in the +face of cv-qualified void types. +

        + +

        +This resolution also supports instantiations such as unique_ptr<void, free_deleter> +which could be very useful to the client. +

        + +
      • + +
      • +

        +Efforts have been made to better support containers and smart pointers in shared +memory contexts. One of the key hurdles in such support is not assuming that a +pointer type is actually a T*. This can easily be accomplished +for unique_ptr by having the deleter define the pointer type: +D::pointer. Furthermore this type can easily be defaulted to +T* should the deleter D choose not to define a pointer +type (example implementation +here). +This change has no run time overhead. It has no interface overhead on +authors of custom delter types. It simply allows (but not requires) +authors of custom deleter types to define a smart pointer for the +storage type of unique_ptr if they find such functionality +useful. std::default_delete is an example of a deleter which +defaults pointer to T* by simply ignoring this issue +and not including a pointer typedef. +

        +
      • + +
      • +

        +When the deleter type is a function pointer then it is unsafe to construct +a unique_ptr without specifying the function pointer in the constructor. +This case is easy to check for with a static_assert assuring that the +deleter is not a pointer type in those constructors which do not accept deleters. +

        + +
        unique_ptr<A, void(*)(void*)> p(new A);  // error, no function given to delete the pointer!
        +
        + +
      • + +
      + +

      [ +Kona (2007): We don't like the solution given to the first bullet in +light of concepts. The second bullet solves the problem of supporting +fancy pointers for one library component only. The full LWG needs to +decide whether to solve the problem of supporting fancy pointers +piecemeal, or whether a paper addressing the whole library is needed. We +think that the third bullet is correct. +]

      + + +

      [ +Post Kona: Howard adds example user code related to the first bullet: +]

      + + +
      +
      void legacy_code(void*, std::size_t);
      +
      +void foo(std::size_t N)
      +{
      +    std::unique_ptr<void, void(*)(void*)> ptr(std::malloc(N), std::free);
      +    legacy_code(ptr.get(), N);
      +}   // unique_ptr used for exception safety purposes
      +
      +
      + +

      +I.e. unique_ptr<void> is a useful tool that we don't want +to disable with concepts. The only part of unique_ptr<void> we +want to disable (with concepts or by other means) are the two member functions: +

      + +
      T& operator*() const;

      +

      +N1856 does not propose +any changes to shared_ptr. It needs to be updated to use a rvalue reference where appropriate +and to interoperate with unique_ptr as it does with auto_ptr. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      +Change 20.9.10.2 [util.smartptr.shared] as follows: +

      + +
      +
      template<class Y> explicit shared_ptr(auto_ptr<Y>&&& r);
      +template<class Y, class D> explicit shared_ptr(const unique_ptr<Y,D>& r) = delete;
      +template<class Y, class D> explicit shared_ptr(unique_ptr<Y,D>&& r);
      +...
      +template<class Y> shared_ptr& operator=(auto_ptr<Y>&&& r);
      +template<class Y, class D> shared_ptr& operator=(const unique_ptr<Y,D>& r) = delete;
      +template<class Y, class D> shared_ptr& operator=(unique_ptr<Y,D>&& r);
      +
      + +

      +Change 20.9.10.2.1 [util.smartptr.shared.const] as follows: +

      + +
      +
      template<class Y> shared_ptr(auto_ptr<Y>&&& r);
      +
      + +

      +Add to 20.9.10.2.1 [util.smartptr.shared.const]: +

      + +
      +
      template<class Y, class D> shared_ptr(unique_ptr<Y, D>&& r);
      +
      + +

      +Effects: Equivalent to shared_ptr( r.release(), r.get_deleter() ) when D is + not a reference type, shared_ptr( r.release(), ref( r.get_deleter() ) ) + otherwise. +

      + +

      +Exception safety: If an exception is thrown, the constructor has no effect. +

      +
      + +
      + +

      +Change 20.9.10.2.3 [util.smartptr.shared.assign] as follows: +

      + +
      +
      template<class Y> shared_ptr& operator=(auto_ptr<Y>&&& r);
      +
      + +

      +Add to 20.9.10.2.3 [util.smartptr.shared.assign]: +

      + +
      +
      template<class Y, class D> shared_ptr& operator=(unique_ptr<Y,D>&& r);
      + +
      +

      +-4- Effects: Equivalent to shared_ptr(std::move(r)).swap(*this). +

      +

      +-5- Returns: *this. +

      675. Move assignment of containers

      Discussion:

      +

      +James Hopkin pointed out to me that if vector<T> move assignment is O(1) +(just a swap) then containers such as vector<shared_ptr<ostream>> might have +the wrong semantics under move assignment when the source is not truly an rvalue, but a +moved-from lvalue (destructors could run late). +

      + +
      vector<shared_ptr<ostream>> v1;
      +vector<shared_ptr<ostream>> v2;
      +...
      +v1 = v2;               // #1
      +v1 = std::move(v2);    // #2
      +
      + +

      +Move semantics means not caring what happens to the source (v2 in this example). +It doesn't mean not caring what happens to the target (v1). In the above example +both assignments should have the same effect on v1. Any non-shared ostream's +v1 owns before the assignment should be closed, whether v1 is undergoing +copy assignment or move assignment. +

      + +

      +This implies that the semantics of move assignment of a generic container should be +clear, swap instead of just swap. An alternative which could achieve the same +effect would be to move assign each element. In either case, the complexity of move +assignment needs to be relaxed to O(v1.size()). +

      + +

      +The performance hit of this change is not nearly as drastic as it sounds. +In practice, the target of a move assignment has always just been move constructed +or move assigned from. Therefore under clear, swap semantics (in +this common use case) we are still achieving O(1) complexity. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change 23.2 [container.requirements]: +

      +Notes: the algorithms swap(), equal() and +lexicographical_compare() are defined in clause 25. Those +entries marked "(Note A)" should have constant complexity.

      +

      +Move semantics are missing from the unordered containers. The proposed +resolution below adds move-support consistent with +N1858 +and the current working draft. +

      + +

      +The current proposed resolution simply lists the requirements for each function. +These might better be hoisted into the requirements table for unordered associative containers. +Futhermore a mild reorganization of the container requirements could well be in order. +This defect report is purposefully ignoring these larger issues and just focusing +on getting the unordered containers "moved". +

      [ +post Bellevue, Pete notes: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Please remind people who are reviewing issues to check that the text +modifications match the current draft. Issue 676, for example, adds two +overloads for unordered_map::insert taking a hint. One takes a +const_iterator and returns a const_iterator, and the other takes an +iterator and returns an iterator. This was correct at the time the issue +was written, but was changed in Toronto so there is only one hint +overload, taking a const_iterator and returning an iterator. +

      +

      +This issue is not ready. In addition to the relatively minor signature +problem I mentioned earlier, it puts requirements in the wrong places. +Instead of duplicating requirements throughout the template +specifications, it should put them in the front matter that talks about +requirements for unordered containers in general. This presentation +problem is editorial, but I'm not willing to do the extensive rewrite +that it requires. Please put it back into Open status. +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +seed_seq::randomize provides a mechanism for initializing random number +engines which ideally would yield "distant" states when given "close" +seeds. The algorithm for seed_seq::randomize given in the current +Working Draft for C++, +N2284 +(2007-05-08), has 3 weaknesses +

      + +
        +
      1. +

        Collisions in state. Because of the way the state is initialized, + seeds of different lengths may result in the same state. The + current version of seed_seq has the following properties:

        +
          +
        • For a given s <= n, each of the 2^(32s) seed vectors results in a + distinct state.
        • +
        +

        + The proposed algorithm (below) has the considerably stronger + properties:

        +
          +
        • All of the (2^(32n)-1)/(2^32-1) seed vectors of lengths s < n + result in distinct states. +
        • +
        • All of the 2^(32n) seed vectors of length s == n result in + distinct states. +
        • +
        +
      2. +
      3. +

        Poor mixing of v's entropy into the state. Consider v.size() == n + and hold v[n/2] thru v[n-1] fixed while varying v[0] thru v[n/2-1], + a total of 2^(16n) possibilities. Because of the simple recursion + used in seed_seq, begin[n/2] thru begin[n-1] can take on only 2^64 + possible states.

        + +

        The proposed algorithm uses a more complex recursion which results + in much better mixing.

        +
      4. +
      5. seed_seq::randomize is undefined for v.size() == 0. The proposed + algorithm remedies this. +
      6. +
      +

      +The current algorithm for seed_seq::randomize is adapted by me from the +initialization procedure for the Mersenne Twister by Makoto Matsumoto +and Takuji Nishimura. The weakness (2) given above was communicated to +me by Matsumoto last year. +

      +

      +The proposed replacement for seed_seq::randomize is due to Mutsuo Saito, +a student of Matsumoto, and is given in the implementation of the +SIMD-oriented Fast Mersenne Twister random number generator SFMT. +http://www.math.sci.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~m-mat/MT/SFMT/index.html +http://www.math.sci.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~m-mat/MT/SFMT/SFMT-src-1.2.tar.gz +

      +

      +See +Mutsuo Saito, +An Application of Finite Field: Design and Implementation of 128-bit +Instruction-Based Fast Pseudorandom Number Generator, +Master's Thesis, Dept. of Math., Hiroshima University (Feb. 2007) +http://www.math.sci.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~m-mat/MT/SFMT/M062821.pdf +

      +

      +One change has been made here, namely to treat the case of small n +(setting t = (n-1)/2 for n < 7). +

      +

      +Section 26.5.1.4 [rand.req.eng] Random number engine requirements: +

      + +

      +This change follows naturally from the proposed change to +seed_seq::randomize in 677. +

      + +

      +In table 104 the description of X(q) contains a special treatment of +the case q.size() == 0. This is undesirable for 4 reasons: +

      + +
        +
      1. It replicates the functionality provided by X().
      2. +
      3. It leads to the possibility of a collision in the state provided + by some other X(q) with q.size() > 0.
      4. +
      5. It is inconsistent with the description of the X(q) in +paragraphs 26.5.3.1 [rand.eng.lcong] p5, 26.5.3.2 [rand.eng.mers] p8, and 26.5.3.3 [rand.eng.sub] p10 where +there is no special treatment of q.size() == 0.
      6. +
      7. The proposed replacement for seed_seq::randomize given above + allows for the case q.size() == 0.

      679. resize parameter by value

      +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The C++98 standard specifies that one member function alone of the containers +passes its parameter (T) by value instead of by const reference: +

      + +
      void resize(size_type sz, T c = T());
      +
      + +

      +This fact has been discussed / debated repeatedly over the years, the first time +being even before C++98 was ratified. The rationale for passing this parameter by +value has been: +

      + +
      +

      +So that self referencing statements are guaranteed to work, for example: +

      +
      v.resize(v.size() + 1, v[0]);
      +
      +
      + +

      +However this rationale is not convincing as the signature for push_back is: +

      + +
      void push_back(const T& x);
      +
      + +

      +And push_back has similar semantics to resize (append). +And push_back must also work in the self referencing case: +

      + +
      v.push_back(v[0]);  // must work
      +
      + +

      +The problem with passing T by value is that it can be significantly more +expensive than passing by reference. The converse is also true, however when it is +true it is usually far less dramatic (e.g. for scalar types). +

      + +

      +Even with move semantics available, passing this parameter by value can be expensive. +Consider for example vector<vector<int>>: +

      + +
      std::vector<int> x(1000);
      +std::vector<std::vector<int>> v;
      +...
      +v.resize(v.size()+1, x);
      +
      + +

      +In the pass-by-value case, x is copied once to the parameter of +resize. And then internally, since the code can not know at compile +time by how much resize is growing the vector, x is +usually copied (not moved) a second time from resize's parameter into its proper place +within the vector. +

      + +

      +With pass-by-const-reference, the x in the above example need be copied +only once. In this case, x has an expensive copy constructor and so any +copies that can be saved represents a significant savings. +

      + +

      +If we can be efficient for push_back, we should be efficient for resize +as well. The resize taking a reference parameter has been coded and shipped in the +CodeWarrior library with no reports of problems which I am aware of. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change 23.3.2 [deque], p2: +

      + +
      class deque {
      +   ...

      Discussion:

      +

      +move_iterator's operator-> return type pointer +does not consistently match the type which is returned in the description +in 24.5.3.3.5 [move.iter.op.ref]. +

      + +
      template <class Iterator>
      +class move_iterator {
      +public:
      +    ...
      +    typedef typename iterator_traits<Iterator>::pointer pointer;
      +    ...
      +    pointer operator->() const {return current;}
      +    ...
      +private: 
      +    Iterator current; // exposition only
      +};
      +
      + + +

      +There are two possible fixes. +

      + +
        +
      1. pointer operator->() const {return &*current;}
      2. +
      3. typedef Iterator pointer;
      4. +
      + +

      +The first solution is the one chosen by reverse_iterator. A potential +disadvantage of this is it may not work well with iterators which return a +proxy on dereference and that proxy has overloaded operator&(). Proxy +references often need to overloaad operator&() to return a proxy +pointer. That proxy pointer may or may not be the same type as the iterator's +pointer type. +

      + +

      +By simply returning the Iterator and taking advantage of the fact that +the language forwards calls to operator-> automatically until it +finds a non-class type, the second solution avoids the issue of an overloaded +operator&() entirely. +

      + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change the synopsis in 24.5.3.1 [move.iterator]: +

      + +
      typedef typename iterator_traits<Iterator>::pointer pointer;

      Discussion:

      +

      +In 28.9.2 [re.submatch.op] of N2284, +operator functions numbered 31-42 seem impossible to compare. E.g.: +

      + +
      +
      template <class BiIter>
      +   bool operator==(typename iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type const& lhs,
      +                    const sub_match<BiIter>& rhs);
      +
      +
      +

      +-31- Returns: lhs == rhs.str(). +

      +
      +
      + +

      +When char* is used as BiIter, iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type would be +char, so that lhs == rhs.str() ends up comparing a char value and an object +of std::basic_string<char>. However, the behaviour of comparison between +these two types is not defined in 21.4.8 [string.nonmembers] of N2284. + This applies when wchar_t* is used as BiIter. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      682. basic_regex ctor takes InputIterator or ForwardIterator?

      Discussion:

      +

      +Looking at N2284, 28.8 [re.regex], p3 basic_regex class template synopsis shows this +constructor: +

      +
      template <class InputIterator>
      +     basic_regex(InputIterator first, InputIterator last, 
      +                 flag_type f = regex_constants::ECMAScript);
      +
      + +

      +In 28.8.2 [re.regex.construct], p15, the constructor appears with this signature: +

      + +
      template <class ForwardIterator>
      +     basic_regex(ForwardIterator first, ForwardIterator last, 
      +                 flag_type f = regex_constants::ECMAScript);
      +
      + +

      +ForwardIterator is probably correct, so the synopsis is wrong. +

      + +

      [ +John adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +I think either could be implemented? Although an input iterator would +probably require an internal copy of the string being made. +

      +I have no strong feelings either way, although I think my original intent +was InputIterator. +

      685. reverse_iterator/move_iterator difference has invalid signatures

      Discussion:

      +

      +In C++03 the difference between two reverse_iterators +

      +
      ri1 - ri2
      +
      +

      +is possible to compute only if both iterators have the same base +iterator. The result type is the difference_type of the base iterator. +

      +

      +In the current draft, the operator is defined as 24.5.1.3.19 [reverse.iter.opdiff] +

      +
      template<class Iterator1, class Iterator2> 
      +typename reverse_iterator<Iterator>::difference_type 
      +   operator-(const reverse_iterator<Iterator1>& x, 
      +                    const reverse_iterator<Iterator2>& y);
      +
      +

      +The return type is the same as the C++03 one, based on the no longer +present Iterator template parameter. +

      +

      +Besides being slightly invalid, should this operator work only when +Iterator1 and Iterator2 has the same difference_type? Or should the +implementation choose one of them? Which one? +

      +

      +The same problem now also appears in operator-() for move_iterator +24.5.3.3.14 [move.iter.nonmember]. +

      +

      +Change the synopsis in 24.5.1.1 [reverse.iterator]: +

      + +
      +

      687. shared_ptr conversion constructor not constrained

      Discussion:

      +

      +Since all conversions from shared_ptr<T> to shared_ptr<U> have the same +rank regardless of the relationship between T and U, reasonable user +code that works with raw pointers fails with shared_ptr: +

      + +
      void f( shared_ptr<void> );

      +}

      Discussion:

      +

      +A reference_wrapper can be constructed from an rvalue, either by using +the constructor, or via cref (and ref in some corner cases). This leads +to a dangling reference being stored into the reference_wrapper object. +Now that we have a mechanism to detect an rvalue, we can fix them to +disallow this source of undefined behavior. +

      + +

      +Also please see the thread starting at c++std-lib-17398 for some good discussion on this subject. +

      + +

      [ +2009-05-09 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Now that ref/cref are constained that T must be an ObjectType, I do not +believe there is any risk of binding ref to a temporary (which would rely on +deducing T to be an rvalue reference type) +

      +

      +However, the problem for cref remains, so I recommend retaining that deleted +overload. +

      #include <functional>
      +
      +struct A {};
      +
      +const A source() {return A();}

      + +

      +this: +

      + +
      ref(source())

      ref(const A& t)
      +
      + +

      +will bind to a temporary (tested with a pre-concepts rvalue-ref enabled compiler). +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The constructor of reference_wrapper is currently explicit. The primary +motivation behind this is the safety problem with respect to rvalues, +which is addressed by the proposed resolution of the previous issue. +Therefore we should consider relaxing the requirements on the +constructor since requests for the implicit conversion keep resurfacing. +

      +

      +Also please see the thread starting at c++std-lib-17398 for some good discussion on this subject. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Remove the explicit from the constructor of reference_wrapper. If the +proposed resolution of the previous issue is accepted, remove the +explicit from the T&& constructor as well to keep them in sync. +

      +The last version of TR1 does not include the following member +functions +for unordered containers: +

      + +
      const_local_iterator cbegin(size_type n) const;
      +const_local_iterator cend(size_type n) const;
      +
      + +

      +which looks like an oversight to me. I've checked th TR1 issues lists +and the latest working draft of the C++0x std (N2284) and haven't +found any mention to these menfuns or to their absence. +

      +

      +Is this really an oversight, or am I missing something? +

      +

      +In a private email Bill Plauger notes: +

      +

      +I believe that the function that implements get_money +[from N2072] +should behave as a formatted input function, and the function that +implements put_money should behave as a formatted output +function. This has implications regarding the skipping of whitespace +and the handling of errors, among other things. +

      +

      +The words don't say that right now and I'm far from convinced that +such a change is editorial. +

      +

      +Martin's response: +

      +

      +I agree that the manipulators should handle exceptions the same way as +formatted I/O functions do. The text in N2072 assumes so but the +Returns clause explicitly omits exception handling for the sake +of brevity. The spec should be clarified to that effect. +

      +

      +As for dealing with whitespace, I also agree it would make sense for +the extractors and inserters involving the new manipulators to treat +it the same way as formatted I/O. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add a new paragraph immediately above p4 of 27.7.4 [ext.manip] with the +following text: +

      +

      +Effects: The expression in >> get_money(mon, intl) +described below behaves as a formatted input function (as +described in 27.7.1.2.1 [istream.formatted.reqmts]). +

      +

      +Also change p4 of 27.7.4 [ext.manip] as follows: +

      +

      +Returns: An object s of unspecified type such that +if in is an object of type basic_istream<charT, +traits> then the expression in >> get_money(mon, intl) behaves as a formatted input function +that calls f(in, mon, intl) were +called. The function f can be defined as... +

      + + +

      [ +post Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +We recommend moving immediately to Review. We've looked at the issue and +have a consensus that the proposed resolution is correct, but want an +iostream expert to sign off.

      Discussion:

      +

      +The bitset class template provides the member function +any() to determine whether an object of the type has any +bits set, and the member function none() to determine +whether all of an object's bits are clear. However, the template does +not provide a corresponding function to discover whether a +bitset object has all its bits set. While it is +possible, even easy, to obtain this information by comparing the +result of count() with the result of size() +for equality (i.e., via b.count() == b.size()) the +operation is less efficient than a member function designed +specifically for that purpose could be. (count() must +count all non-zero bits in a bitset a word at a time +while all() could stop counting as soon as it encountered +the first word with a zero bit). +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add a declaration of the new member function all() to the +defintion of the bitset template in 20.5 [template.bitset], p1, +right above the declaration of any() as shown below: +

      + +
      bool operator!=(const bitset<N>& rhs) const;
      +bool test(size_t pos) const;
      +bool all() const;
      +bool any() const;
      +bool none() const;
      +
      + +

      +Add a description of the new member function to the end of 20.5.2 [bitset.members] with the following text: +

      +

      +bool all() const; +

      +
      +Returns: count() == size(). +
      +
      + +

      +In addition, change the description of any() and +none() for consistency with all() as +follows: +

      +

      +bool any() const; +

      +
      +

      +Returns: true if any bit in *this +is onecount() != 0. +

      +
      +

      +bool none() const; +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Objects of the bitset class template specializations can +be constructed from and explicitly converted to values of the widest +C++ integer type, unsigned long. With the introduction +of long long into the language the template should be +enhanced to make it possible to interoperate with values of this type +as well, or perhaps uintmax_t. See c++std-lib-18274 for +a brief discussion in support of this change. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +For simplicity, instead of adding overloads for unsigned long +long and dealing with possible ambiguities in the spec, replace +the bitset ctor that takes an unsigned long +argument with one taking unsigned long long in the +definition of the template as shown below. (The standard permits +implementations to add overloads on other integer types or employ +template tricks to achieve the same effect provided they don't cause +ambiguities or changes in behavior.) +

      +
      +
      // [bitset.cons] constructors:
      +bitset();
      +bitset(unsigned long long val);
      +template<class charT, class traits, class Allocator>
      +explicit bitset(
      +                const basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>& str,
      +                typename basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>::size_type pos = 0,
      +                typename basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>::size_type n =
      +                    basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>::npos);
      +
      +
      +

      +Make a corresponding change in 20.5.1 [bitset.cons], p2: +

      +
      +

      +bitset(unsigned long long val); +

      +
      +Effects: Constructs an object of class bitset<N>, +initializing the first M bit positions to the +corresponding bit values in val. +M is the smaller of N and the +number of bits in the value representation (section [basic.types]) of +unsigned long long. If M < +N is true, the remaining bit +positions are initialized to zero. +
      +
      + +

      +Additionally, introduce a new member function to_ullong() +to make it possible to convert bitset to values of the +new type. Add the following declaration to the definition of the +template, immediate after the declaration of to_ulong() +in 20.5 [template.bitset], p1, as shown below: +

      +
      +
      // element access:
      +bool operator[](size_t pos) const; // for b[i];
      +reference operator[](size_t pos); // for b[i];
      +unsigned long to_ulong() const;
      +unsigned long long to_ullong() const;
      +template <class charT, class traits, class Allocator>
      +basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator> to_string() const;
      +
      +
      +

      +And add a description of the new member function to 20.5.2 [bitset.members], +below the description of the existing to_ulong() (if +possible), with the following text: +

      +
      +

      +unsigned long long to_ullong() const; +

      +
      +Throws: overflow_error if the integral value +x corresponding to the bits in *this +cannot be represented as type unsigned long long. +
      +
      +Returns: x. +

      695. ctype<char>::classic_table() not accessible

      Discussion:

      +

      +The ctype<char>::classic_table() static member +function returns a pointer to an array of const +ctype_base::mask objects (enums) that contains +ctype<char>::table_size elements. The table +describes the properties of the character set in the "C" locale (i.e., +whether a character at an index given by its value is alpha, digit, +punct, etc.), and is typically used to initialize the +ctype<char> facet in the classic "C" locale (the +protected ctype<char> member function +table() then returns the same value as +classic_table()). +

      +

      +However, while ctype<char>::table_size (the size of +the table) is a public static const member of the +ctype<char> specialization, the +classic_table() static member function is protected. That +makes getting at the classic data less than convenient (i.e., one has +to create a whole derived class just to get at the masks array). It +makes little sense to expose the size of the table in the public +interface while making the table itself protected, especially when the +table is a constant object. +

      +

      +The same argument can be made for the non-static protected member +function table(). +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Make the ctype<char>::classic_table() and +ctype<char>::table() member functions public by +moving their declarations into the public section of the definition of +specialization in 22.4.1.3 [facet.ctype.special] as shown below: +

      +
      +
        static locale::id id;
      +  static const size_t table_size = IMPLEMENTATION_DEFINED;

      +  static const mask* classic_table() throw();

      +~ctype(); // virtual
      +virtual char do_toupper(char c) const;

      Discussion:

      +

      +From message c++std-lib-17897: +

      +

      +The code shown in 27.7.1.2.2 [istream.formatted.arithmetic] as the "as if" +implementation of the two arithmetic extractors that don't have a +corresponding num_get interface (i.e., the +short and int overloads) is subtly buggy in +how it deals with EOF, overflow, and other similar +conditions (in addition to containing a few typos). +

      +

      +One problem is that if num_get::get() reaches the EOF +after reading in an otherwise valid value that exceeds the limits of +the narrower type (but not LONG_MIN or +LONG_MAX), it will set err to +eofbit. Because of the if condition testing for +(err == 0), the extractor won't set +failbit (and presumably, return a bogus value to the +caller). +

      +

      +Another problem with the code is that it never actually sets the +argument to the extracted value. It can't happen after the call to +setstate() since the function may throw, so we need to +show when and how it's done (we can't just punt as say: "it happens +afterwards"). However, it turns out that showing how it's done isn't +quite so easy since the argument is normally left unchanged by the +facet on error except when the error is due to a misplaced thousands +separator, which causes failbit to be set but doesn't +prevent the facet from storing the value. +

      + +

      [ +Batavia (2009-05): +]

      + +
      +

      +We believe this part of the Standard has been recently adjusted +and that this issue was addressed during that rewrite. +

      +

      +Move to NAD. +

      [ +2009-05-28 Howard adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +I've moved this issue from Tentatively NAD to Open. +

      + +

      +The current wording of +N2857 +in 22.4.2.1.2 [facet.num.get.virtuals] p3, stage 3 appears to indicate that +in parsing arithmetic types, the value is always set, but sometimes in addition +to setting failbit. +

      + +
        +
      • +If there is a range error, the value is set to min or max, else +
      • +
      • +if there is a conversion error, the value is set to 0, else +
      • +
      • +if there is a grouping error, the value is set to whatever it would be if grouping were ignored, else +
      • +
      • +the value is set to its error-free result. +
      • +
      + +

      +However there is a contradictory sentence in 22.4.2.1.2 [facet.num.get.virtuals] p1. +

      + +

      +27.7.1.2.2 [istream.formatted.arithmetic] should mimic the behavior of 22.4.2.1.2 [facet.num.get.virtuals] +(whatever we decide that behavior is) for +int and short, and currently does not. I believe that the +correct code fragment should look like: +

      + +
      typedef num_get<charT,istreambuf_iterator<charT,traits> > numget;
      +iostate err = ios_base::goodbit;
      +long lval;
      +use_facet<numget>(loc).get(*this, 0, *this, err, lval);

      +{
      +  err |= ios_base::failbit;

      +I propose that this enumeration type (and probably the remaining parts +of +<system_error> as well) should be moved into one additional inner +namespace, e.g. sys or system to reduce foreseeable future clashes +due +to the great number of members that std::posix_errno already contains +(Btw.: Why has the already proposed std::sys sub-namespace from +N2066 +been rejected?). A further clash candidate seems to be +std::protocol_error +(a reasonable name for an exception related to a std network library, +I guess). +

      + +

      +Another possible resolution would rely on the proposed strongly typed +enums, +as described in N2213. +But maybe the forbidden implicit conversion to integral types would +make +these enumerators less attractive in this special case? +

      698. system_error needs const char* constructors

      Discussion:

      +

      +In 19.5.6.1 [syserr.syserr.overview] we have the class definition of +std::system_error. In contrast to all exception classes, which +are constructible with a what_arg string (see 19.2 [std.exceptions], +or ios_base::failure in 27.5.2.1.1 [ios::failure]), only overloads with with +const string& are possible. For consistency with the re-designed +remaining exception classes this class should also provide +c'tors which accept a const char* what_arg string. +

      +

      +Please note that this proposed addition makes sense even +considering the given implementation hint for what(), because +what_arg is required to be set as what_arg of the base class +runtime_error, which now has the additional c'tor overload +accepting a const char*. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      704. MoveAssignable requirement for container value type overly strict

      Discussion:

      +

      +The move-related changes inadvertently overwrote the intent of 276. +Issue 276 removed the requirement of CopyAssignable from +most of the member functions of node-based containers. But the move-related changes +unnecessarily introduced the MoveAssignable requirement for those members which used to +require CopyAssignable. +

      + +

      +We also discussed (c++std-lib-18722) the possibility of dropping MoveAssignable +from some of the sequence requirements. Additionally the in-place construction +work may further reduce requirements. For purposes of an easy reference, here are the +minimum sequence requirements as I currently understand them. Those items in requirements +table in the working draft which do not appear below have been purposefully omitted for +brevity as they do not have any requirements of this nature.

      +

      +This is one of the issues that was "solved by concepts" and is now no longer solved. +

      + +

      +In a nutshell, concepts adopted the "minimum requirements" philosophy outlined +in the discussion of this issue, and enforced it. My strong suggestion is that +we translate the concepts specification into documentation for the containers. +

      + +

      +What this means for vendors is that they will have to implement container members +being careful to only use those characteristics of a type that the concepts specification +formally allowed. Note that I am not talking about enable_if'ing +everything. I am simply suggesting that (for example) we tell the vendor he can't call T's +copy constructor or move constructor within the emplace member function, etc. +

      + +

      +What this means for customers is that they will be able to use types within C++03 +containers which are sometimes not CopyConstructible, and sometimes not even +MoveConstructible, etc. +

      +I took the task to see whether 868 is covered by 704 +already. +However, by doing that I have the impression that +704 is a big mistake. +

      + +

      +Take e.g. the second change of 868: +

      + +
      +

      +Change 23.3.2.1 [deque.cons] para 5: +

      +
      +Effects: Constructs a deque with n default constructed +elements. +
      +

      +where "default constructed" should be replaced by "value-initialized". +This is the constructor out of a number of elements: +

      +
      ContType c(num)
      +
      + +

      +704 says: +

      + +
      +

      +Remove the entire section 23.3.2.1 [deque.cons]. +

      +
      +[ This section is already specified by the requirements tables. ] +
      +
      + +

      +BUT, there is no requirement table that lists this constructor at all, +which means that we would lose the entire specification of this function +!!! +

      + +

      +In fact, I found with further investigation, if we follow +704 to remove 23.3.2.1 we +

      +
        +
      • +have no semantics for + ContType c(num) +
      • +
      • +have no complexity and no allocator specification for + ContType c(num,val) +
      • +
      • +have no semantics for + ContType c(num,val,alloc) +

      • +
      • +- have different wording (which might or might not give + the same guarantees) for the assign functions +
      • +
      + +

      +because all these guarantees are given in the removed +section but nowhere else (as far as I saw). +

      +

      +Looks to me that 704 need a significant review before we +take that change, because chances are high that there +are similar flaws in other proposed changes there +(provided I am not missing anything). +

      +Unless otherwise specified (see 23.2.4.1, 23.2.5.1, 23.3.2.3, and 23.3.6.4) all +container types defined in this Clause meet the following additional +requirements: +

      + +
      +

      +The descriptions of the requirements of the type T in this section +use the terms CopyConstructible, MoveConstructible, constructible +from *i, and constructible from args. These terms +are equivalent to the following expression using the appropriate arguments: +

      +allocator_traits<allocator_type>::construct(x.get_allocator(), q, args...);
      +

      + +
      
      +allocator_traits<allocator_type>::construct(get_allocator(), q, std::move(t));
      +
      + +

      +The default implementation of construct will call: +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The current working draft has a type-trait decay in 20.7.7.6 [meta.trans.other]. +

      + +

      +Its use is to turn C++03 pass-by-value parameters into efficient C++0x +pass-by-rvalue-reference parameters. However, the current definition +introduces an incompatible change where the cv-qualification of the +parameter type is retained. The deduced type should loose such +cv-qualification, as pass-by-value does. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +In 20.7.7.6 [meta.trans.other] change the last sentence: +

      + +

      +Otherwise the member typedef type equals remove_cv<U>::type. +

      + +

      +In 20.4.2.4 [tuple.creation]/1 change: +

      + +

      +where each Vi in VTypes is X& if, for the +corresponding type Ti in Types, +remove_cv<remove_reference<Ti>::type>::type equals +reference_wrapper<X>, otherwise Vi is +decay<Ti>::type. +Let Ui be decay<Ti>::type for each +Ti in Types. Then each Vi in VTypes +is X& if Ui equals +reference_wrapper<X>, otherwise Vi is +Ui. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The current draft has make_pair() in 20.3.5 [pairs]/16 +and make_tuple() in 20.4.2.4 [tuple.creation]. +make_tuple() detects the presence of +reference_wrapper<X> arguments and "unwraps" the reference in +such cases. make_pair() would OTOH create a +reference_wrapper<X> member. I suggest that the two +functions are made to behave similar in this respect to minimize +confusion. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The changes made for constexpr in 21.2.3 [char.traits.specializations] have +not only changed the not_eof function from pass by const reference to +pass by value, it has also changed the parameter type from int_type to +char_type. +

      +

      +This doesn't work for type char, and is inconsistent with the +requirements in Table 56, Traits requirements, 21.2.1 [char.traits.require]. +

      + +

      +Pete adds: +

      + +

      +For what it's worth, that may not have been an intentional change. +N2349, which detailed the changes for adding constant expressions to +the library, has strikeout bars through the const and the & that +surround the char_type argument, but none through char_type itself. +So the intention may have been just to change to pass by value, with +text incorrectly copied from the standard. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change the signature in 21.2.3.1 [char.traits.specializations.char], +21.2.3.2 [char.traits.specializations.char16_t], 21.2.3.3 [char.traits.specializations.char32_t], +and 21.2.3.4 [char.traits.specializations.wchar.t] to +

      Discussion:

      +

      +A discussion on +comp.std.c++ +has identified a contradiction in the shared_ptr specification. +The shared_ptr move constructor and the cast functions are +missing postconditions for the get() accessor. +

      + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Move to "ready", adopting the first (Peter's) proposed resolution. +

      +

      +Note to the project editor: there is an editorial issue here. The +wording for the postconditions of the casts is slightly awkward, and the +editor should consider rewording "If w is the return value...", e. g. as +"For a return value w...". +

      +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add to 20.9.10.2.1 [util.smartptr.shared.const]: +

      + +
      +
      shared_ptr(shared_ptr&& r);
      +template<class Y> shared_ptr(shared_ptr<Y>&& r);
      +
      +
      +

      +Postconditions: *this shall contain the old value of r. r +shall be empty. r.get() == 0. +

      +
      +
      + +

      +Add to 20.9.10.2.10 [util.smartptr.shared.cast]: +

      + +
      +
      template<class T, class U> shared_ptr<T> static_pointer_cast(shared_ptr<U> const& r);
      +
      +
      +

      +Postconditions: If w is the return value, +w.get() == static_cast<T*>(r.get()) && w.use_count() == r.use_count(). +

      +
      +
      + +
      +
      template<class T, class U> shared_ptr<T> dynamic_pointer_cast(shared_ptr<U> const& r);
      +
      +
      +

      +Postconditions: If w is the return value, w.get() == dynamic_cast<T*>(r.get()). +

      +
      +
      + +
      +
      template<class T, class U> shared_ptr<T> const_pointer_cast(shared_ptr<U> const& r);
      +
      +
      +

      +Postconditions: If w is the return value, +w.get() == const_cast<T*>(r.get()) && w.use_count() == r.use_count(). +

      +
      +
      + +

      +Alberto Ganesh Barbati has written an +alternative proposal +where he suggests (among other things) that the casts be respecified in terms of +the aliasing constructor as follows: +

      + +

      +Change 20.9.10.2.10 [util.smartptr.shared.cast]: +

      + +
      +

      +-2- Returns: If r is empty, an empty +shared_ptr<T>; otherwise, a shared_ptr<T> +object that stores static_cast<T*>(r.get()) and shares ownership with +r. shared_ptr<T>(r, static_cast<T*>(r.get()). +

      +
      + +
      +

      +-6- Returns: +

      +
        +
      • When dynamic_cast<T*>(r.get()) returns a nonzero value, +a shared_ptr<T> object that stores a copy +of it and shares ownership with r;
      • +
      • Otherwise, an empty shared_ptr<T> object.
      • +
      • If p = dynamic_cast<T*>(r.get()) is a non-null pointer, shared_ptr<T>(r, p);
      • +
      • Otherwise, shared_ptr<T>().
      • +
      +
      + +
      +

      +-10- Returns: If r is empty, an empty +shared_ptr<T>; otherwise, a shared_ptr<T> +object that stores const_cast<T*>(r.get()) and shares ownership with +r. shared_ptr<T>(r, const_cast<T*>(r.get()). +

      +
      + +

      +This takes care of the missing postconditions for the casts by bringing +in the aliasing constructor postcondition "by reference". +

      Discussion:

      +

      +A discussion on +comp.std.c++ +has identified a contradiction in the shared_ptr specification. +The note: +

      + +

      +[ Note: this constructor allows creation of an empty shared_ptr instance with a non-NULL stored pointer. +-end note ] +

      + +

      +after the aliasing constructor +

      + +
      template<class Y> shared_ptr(shared_ptr<Y> const& r, T *p);
      +
      + +

      +reflects the intent of +N2351 +to, well, allow the creation of an empty shared_ptr +with a non-NULL stored pointer. +

      + +

      +This is contradicted by the second sentence in the Returns clause of 20.9.10.2.5 [util.smartptr.shared.obs]: +

      + +
      +
      T* get() const;
      +
      +

      +Returns: the stored pointer. Returns a null pointer if *this is empty. +

      +
      + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Adopt option 1 and move to review, not ready. +

      +

      +There was a lot of confusion about what an empty shared_ptr is (the term +isn't defined anywhere), and whether we have a good mental model for how +one behaves. We think it might be possible to deduce what the definition +should be, but the words just aren't there. We need to open an issue on +the use of this undefined term. (The resolution of that issue might +affect the resolution of issue 711.) +

      +

      +The LWG is getting more uncomfortable with the aliasing proposal (N2351) +now that we realize some of its implications, and we need to keep an eye +on it, but there isn't support for removing this feature at this time. +

      +
      + +

      [ +Sophia Antipolis: +]

      + + +
      +

      +We heard from Peter Dimov, who explained his reason for preferring solution 1. +

      +

      +Because it doesn't seem to add anything. It simply makes the behavior +for p = 0 undefined. For programmers who don't create empty pointers +with p = 0, there is no difference. Those who do insist on creating them +presumably have a good reason, and it costs nothing for us to define the +behavior in this case. +

      +

      +The aliasing constructor is sharp enough as it is, so "protecting" users +doesn't make much sense in this particular case. +

      +

      +> Do you have a use case for r being empty and r being non-null? +

      +

      +I have received a few requests for it from "performance-conscious" +people (you should be familiar with this mindset) who don't like the +overhead of allocating and maintaining a control block when a null +deleter is used to approximate a raw pointer. It is obviously an "at +your own risk", low-level feature; essentially a raw pointer behind a +shared_ptr facade. +

      +

      +We could not agree upon a resolution to the issue; some of us thought +that Peter's description above is supporting an undesirable behavior. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-07 Frankfurt: +]

      + +
      + + + +

      +

      +In keeping the N2351 spirit and obviously my preference, change 20.9.10.2.5 [util.smartptr.shared.obs]: +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The complexity of sort() is specified as "Approximately N +log(N) (where N == last - first ) comparisons on the +average", with no worst case complicity specified. The intention was to +allow a median-of-three quicksort implementation, which is usually O(N +log N) but can be quadratic for pathological inputs. However, there is +no longer any reason to allow implementers the freedom to have a +worst-cast-quadratic sort algorithm. Implementers who want to use +quicksort can use a variant like David Musser's "Introsort" (Software +Practice and Experience 27:983-993, 1997), which is guaranteed to be O(N +log N) in the worst case without incurring additional overhead in the +average case. Most C++ library implementers already do this, and there +is no reason not to guarantee it in the standard. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +In 25.4.1.1 [sort], change the complexity to "O(N log N)", and remove footnote 266: +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Since the inclusion of constexpr in the standard draft N2369 we have +a new type category "literal", which is defined in 3.9 [basic.types]/p.11: +

      + +
      +

      +-11- A type is a literal type if it is: +

      +
        +
      • a scalar type; or
      • +
      • a class type (clause 9) with

        +
          +
        • a trivial copy constructor,
        • +
        • a trivial destructor,
        • +
        • at least one constexpr constructor other than the copy constructor,
        • +
        • no virtual base classes, and
        • +
        • all non-static data members and base classes of literal types; or
        • +
        +
      • +
      • an array of literal type.
      • +
      +
      + +

      +I strongly suggest that the standard provides a type traits for +literal types in 20.7.4.3 [meta.unary.prop] for several reasons: +

      + +
        +
      1. To keep the traits in sync with existing types.
      2. +
      3. I see many reasons for programmers to use this trait in template + code to provide optimized template definitions for these types, + see below.
      4. +
      5. A user-provided definition of this trait is practically impossible +to write portably.
      6. +
      + +

      +The special problem of reason (c) is that I don't see currently a +way to portably test the condition for literal class types: +

      1. +The member function bool array<T,N>::empty() const should be a +constexpr because this is easily to proof and to implement following it's operational +semantics defined by Table 87 (Container requirements) which says: a.size() == 0. +
      2. +
      3. +The member function bool bitset<N>::test() const must be a +constexpr (otherwise it would violate the specification of constexpr +bitset<N>::operator[](size_t) const, because it's return clause delegates to test()). +
      4. +
      5. +I wonder how the constructor bitset<N>::bitset(unsigned long) can +be declared as a constexpr. Current implementations usually have no such bitset +c'tor which would fulfill the requirements of a constexpr c'tor because they have a +non-empty c'tor body that typically contains for-loops or memcpy to compute the +initialisation. What have I overlooked here? +

      +According to the current state of the standard draft, the class +template basic_regex, as described in 28.8 [re.regex]/3, is +neither MoveConstructible nor MoveAssignable. +IMO it should be, because typical regex state machines tend +to have a rather large data quantum and I have seen several +use cases, where a factory function returns regex values, +which would take advantage of moveabilities. +

      +The DefaultConstructible requirement is referenced in +several places in the August 2007 working draft +N2369, +but is not defined anywhere. +

      +

      +Walking into the default/value-initialization mess... +

      +

      +Why two lines? Because we need both expressions to be valid. +

      +

      +AJM not sure what the phrase "default constructed" means. This is +unfortunate, as the phrase is already used 24 times in the library! +

      +

      +Example: const int would not accept first line, but will accept the second. +

      +

      +This is an issue that must be solved by concepts, but we might need to solve it independantly first. +

      +

      +It seems that the requirements are the syntax in the proposed first +column is valid, but not clear what semantics we need. +

      +

      +A table where there is no post-condition seems odd, but appears to sum up our position best. +

      [ +2009-10-03 Daniel adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +The suggested definition T{} describing it as +value-initialization is wrong, because it belongs to list-initialization +which would - as the current rules are - always prefer a +initializer-list constructor over a default-constructor. I don't +consider this as an appropriate definition of +DefaultConstructible. My primary suggestion is to ask core, +whether the special case T{} (which also easily leads to +ambiguity situations for more than one initializer-list in a class) +would always prefer a default-constructor - if any - before considering +an initializer-list constructor or to provide another syntax form to +prefer value-initialization over list-initialization. If that fails I +would fall back to suggest to use the expression T() instead of +T{} with all it's disadvantages for the meaning of the +expression +

      +

      +regex_match() and regex_search() take const basic_string<charT, ST, +SA>&. regex_replace() takes const basic_string<charT>&. This prevents +regex_replace() from accepting basic_strings with custom traits and +allocators. +

      + +

      +Overloads of regex_replace() taking basic_string should be additionally +templated on class ST, class SA and take const basic_string<charT, ST, +SA>&.

      +One relevant part of the proposed resolution below suggests +to add a new overload of the format member function in the +match_results class template that accepts two character pointers +defining the begin and end of a format range. A more general +approach could have proposed a pair of iterators instead, but +the used pair of char pointers reflects existing practice. If the +committee strongly favors an iterator-based signature, this +could be simply changed.

      Discussion:

      +

      +The mersenne_twister_engine is required to use a seeding method that is given +as an algorithm parameterized over the number of bits W. I doubt whether the given generalization +of an algorithm that was originally developed only for unsigned 32-bit integers is appropriate +for other bit widths. For instance, W could be theoretically 16 and UIntType a 16-bit integer, in +which case the given multiplier would not fit into the UIntType. Moreover, T. Nishimura and M. +Matsumoto have chosen a dif ferent multiplier for their 64 bit Mersenne Twister +[reference]. +

      + +

      +I see two possible resolutions: +

      + +
        +
      1. Restrict the parameter W of the mersenne_twister_template to values of 32 or 64 and use the +multiplier from [the above reference] for the 64-bit case (my preference)
      2. +
      3. Interpret the state array for any W as a 32-bit array of appropriate length (and a specified byte +order) and always employ the 32-bit algorithm for seeding +
      4. +

      734. Unnecessary restriction in [rand.dist.norm.chisq]

      Discussion:

      +

      +chi_squared_distribution, fisher_f_distribution and student_t_distribution +have parameters for the "degrees of freedom" n and m that are specified as integers. For the +following two reasons this is an unnecessary restriction: First, in many applications such as +Bayesian inference or Monte Carlo simulations it is more convenient to treat the respective param- +eters as continuous variables. Second, the standard non-naive algorithms (i.e. +O(1) algorithms) +for simulating from these distributions work with floating-point parameters anyway (all three +distributions could be easily implemented using the Gamma distribution, for instance). +

      + +

      +Similar arguments could in principle be made for the parameters t and k of the discrete +binomial_distribution and negative_binomial_distribution, though in both cases continuous +parameters are less frequently used in practice and in case of the binomial_distribution +the implementation would be significantly complicated by a non-discrete parameter (in most +implementations one would need an approximation of the log-gamma function instead of just the +log-factorial function). +

      + +

      +Possible resolution: For these reasons, I propose to change the type of the respective parameters +to double. +

      740. Please remove *_ptr<T[N]>

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Please don't provide *_ptr<T[N]>. It doesn't enable any useful +bounds-checking (e.g., you could imagine that doing op++ on a +shared_ptr<T[N]> yields a shared_ptr<T[N-1]>, but that promising path +immediately falters on op-- which can't reliably dereference because we +don't know the lower bound). Also, most buffers you'd want to point to +don't have a compile-time known size. +

      + +

      +To enable any bounds-checking would require run-time information, with +the usual triplet: base (lower bound), current offset, and max offset +(upper bound). And I can sympathize with the point of view that you +wouldn't want to require this on *_ptr itself. But please let's not +follow the <T[N]> path, especially not with additional functions to +query the bounds etc., because this sets wrong user expectations by +embarking on a path that doesn't go all the way to bounds checking as it +seems to imply. +

      + +

      +If bounds checking is desired, consider a checked_*_ptr instead (e.g., +checked_shared_ptr). And make the interfaces otherwise identical so that +user code could easily #define/typedef between prepending checked_ on +debug builds and not doing so on release builds (for example). +

      + +

      +Note that some may object that checked_*_ptr may seem to make the smart +pointer more like vector, and we don't want two ways to spell vector. I +don't agree, but if that were true that would be another reason to +remove *_ptr<T[N]> which equally makes the smart pointer more like +std::array. :-) +

      + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Suggestion that fixed-size array instantiations are going to fail at compile time anyway (if we remove specialization) due to pointer decay, at least that appears to be result from available compilers. +

      +

      +So concerns about about requiring static_assert seem unfounded. +

      +

      +After a little more experimentation with compiler, it appears that fixed size arrays would only work at all if we supply these explicit specialization. So removing them appears less breaking than originally thought. +

      +

      +straw poll unanimous move to Ready. +

      +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      +The key point to note in the above code is that in the call to swap, *i1 +and a are different types (currently types can only be Swappable with the +same type). A secondary point is that to support proxies, one must be able to pass rvalues +to swap. But note that I am not stating that the general purpose std::swap +should accept rvalues! Only that overloaded swaps, as in the example above, be allowed +to take rvalues. +

      + +

      +That is, no standard library code needs to change. We simply need to have a more flexible +definition of Swappable. +

      +

      +While we believe Concepts work will define a swappable concept, we +should still resolve this issue if possible to give guidance to the +Concepts work. +

      +

      +Would an ambiguous swap function in two namespaces found by ADL break +this wording? Suggest that the phrase "valid expression" means such a +pair of types would still not be swappable. +

      +

      +Motivation is proxy-iterators, but facility is considerably more +general. Are we happy going so far? +

      +

      +We think this wording is probably correct and probably an improvement on +what's there in the WP. On the other hand, what's already there in the +WP is awfully complicated. Why do we need the two bullet points? They're +too implementation-centric. They don't add anything to the semantics of +what swap() means, which is there in the post-condition. What's wrong +with saying that types are swappable if you can call swap() and it +satisfies the semantics of swapping? +

      +

      +When the LWG looked at 674 in Kona the following note was made: +

      + +

      +We may need to open an issue to deal with the question of +whether shared_ptr needs an rvalue swap. +

      + +

      +This issue was opened in response to that note. +

      + +

      +I believe allowing rvalue shared_ptrs to swap is both +appropriate, and consistent with how other library components are currently specified. +

      + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Concern that the three signatures for swap is needlessly complicated, +but this issue merely brings shared_ptr into equal complexity with the +rest of the library. Will open a new issue for concern about triplicate +signatures. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Without some lifetime guarantee, it is hard to know how this type can be +used. Very specifically, I don't see how the current wording would +guarantee and exception_ptr caught at the end of one thread could be safely +stored and rethrown in another thread - the original motivation for this +API. +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Agree the issue is real. +

      +

      +Intent is lifetime is similar to a shared_ptr (and we might even want to +consider explicitly saying that it is a shared_ptr< unspecified type >). +

      +

      +We expect that most implementations will use shared_ptr, and the +standard should be clear that the exception_ptr type is intended to be +something whose semantics are smart-pointer-like so that the user does +not need to worry about lifetime management. We still need someone to +draught those words - suggest emailing Peter Dimov. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +I understand that the attempt to copy an exception may run out of memory, +but I believe this is the only part of the standard that mandates failure +with specifically bad_alloc, as opposed to allowing an +implementation-defined type derived from bad_alloc. For instance, the Core +language for a failed new expression is: +

      +
      +

      +Any other allocation function that fails to allocate storage shall indicate +failure only by throwing an exception of a type that would match a handler +(15.3) of type std::bad_alloc (18.5.2.1). +

      +
      +

      +I think we should allow similar freedom here (or add a blanket +compatible-exception freedom paragraph in 17) +

      +

      +I prefer the clause 17 approach myself, and maybe clean up any outstanding +wording that could also rely on it. +

      +

      +Did LWG recently discuss 20.2.5 [allocator.requirements]-2, which states that "All the operations +on the allocators are expected to be amortized constant time."? +

      +

      +As I think I pointed out earlier, this is currently fiction for +allocate() if it has to obtain memory from the OS, and it's unclear to +me how to interpret this for construct() and destroy() if they deal with +large objects. Would it be controversial to officially let these take +time linear in the size of the object, as they already do in real life? +

      +

      +Allocate() more blatantly takes time proportional to the size of the +object if you mix in GC. But it's not really a new problem, and I think +we'd be confusing things by leaving the bogus requirements there. The +current requirement on allocate() is generally not important anyway, +since it takes O(size) to construct objects in the resulting space. +There are real performance issues here, but they're all concerned with +the constants, not the asymptotic complexity. +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The draft standard n2369 uses the term move constructor in a few +places, but doesn't seem to define it. +

      + +

      +MoveConstructible requirements are defined in Table 33 in 20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements] as +follows: +

      + +
      + + + + + + + + + + + +
      MoveConstructible requirements
      expression post-condition
      T t = rv t is equivalent to the value of rv before the construction
      [Note: There is no requirement on the value of rv after the +construction. -- end note]
      +
      + +

      +(where rv is a non-const rvalue of type T). +

      + +

      +So I assume the move constructor is the constructor that would be used +in filling the above requirement. +

      + +

      +For vector::reserve, vector::resize and the vector modifiers given in +23.4.1.4 [vector.modifiers] we have +

      + +
      +Requires: If value_type has a move constructor, that constructor shall +not throw any exceptions. +
      + +

      +Firstly "If value_type has a move constructor" is superfluous; every +type which can be put into a vector has a move constructor (a copy +constructor is also a move constructor). Secondly it means that for +any value_type which has a throwing copy constructor and no other move +constructor these functions cannot be used -- which I think will come +as a shock to people who have been using such types in vector until +now! +

      + +

      +I can see two ways to correct this. The simpler, which is presumably +what was intended, is to say "If value_type has a move constructor and +no copy constructor, the move constructor shall not throw any +exceptions" or "If value_type has a move constructor which changes the +value of its parameter,". +

      + +

      +The other alternative is add to MoveConstructible the requirement that +the expression does not throw. This would mean that not every type +that satisfies the CopyConstructible requirements also satisfies the +MoveConstructible requirements. It would mean changing requirements in +various places in the draft to allow either MoveConstructible or +CopyConstructible, but I think the result would be clearer and +possibly more concise too. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add new defintions to 17.3 [definitions]: +

      + +
      +

      +move constructor +

      +

      +a constructor which accepts only rvalue arguments of that type, and modifies the rvalue as a +side effect during the construction. +

      +

      +move assignment operator +

      +

      +an assignment operator which accepts only rvalue arguments of that type, and modifies the rvalue as a +side effect during the assignment. +

      +

      +move assignment +

      +

      +use of the move assignment operator. +

      +
      + +

      [ +Howard adds post-Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Unfortunately I believe the wording recommended by the LWG in Bellevue is incorrect. reserve et. al. will use a move constructor +if one is available, else it will use a copy constructor. A type may have both. If the move constructor is +used, it must not throw. If the copy constructor is used, it can throw. The sentence in the proposed wording +is correct without the recommended insertion. The Bellevue LWG recommended moving this issue to Ready. I am +unfortunately pulling it back to Open. But I'm drafting wording to atone for this egregious action. :-) +

      Discussion:

      +

      +A std::vector can be shrunk-to-fit via the swap idiom: +

      + +
      vector<int> v;
      +...
      +v.swap(vector<int>(v));  // shrink to fit
      +
      +

      +or: +

      +
      vector<int>(v).swap(v);  // shrink to fit
      +
      +

      +or: +

      +
      swap(v, vector<int>(v));  // shrink to fit
      +
      +
      + +

      +A non-binding request for shrink-to-fit can be made to a std::string via: +

      + +
      string s;
      +...
      +s.reserve(0);
      +
      + +

      +Neither of these is at all obvious to beginners, and even some +experienced C++ programmers are not aware that shrink-to-fit is +trivially available. +

      +

      +Lack of explicit functions to perform these commonly requested +operations makes vector and string less usable for non-experts. Because +the idioms are somewhat obscure, code readability is impaired. It is +also unfortunate that two similar vector-like containers use different +syntax for the same operation. +

      +

      +The proposed resolution addresses these concerns. The proposed function +takes no arguments to keep the solution simple and focused. +

      +According +to N2431, +the conversion from nullptr_t to Y * is not +deducible, so the above constructor will not be found. There are similar problems with the +constructors that take a pointer and a deleter or a +pointer, a deleter and an allocator, as well as the +corresponding forms of reset(). Note that N2435 +will solve this problem for constructing from just nullptr, but not for constructors that use +deleters or allocators or for reset(). +

      + +

      +In the case of the functions that take deleters, there is the additional +question of what argument should be passed to the deleter when it is +eventually called. There are two reasonable possibilities: nullptr or +static_cast<T *>(0), where T is the template argument of the +shared_ptr. It is not immediately clear which of these is better. If +D::operator() is a template function similar to shared_ptr's +constructor, then d(static_cast<T*>(0)) will compile and d(nullptr) +will not. On the other hand, if D::operator()() takes a parameter that +is a pointer to some type other that T (for instance U* where U derives +from T) then d(nullptr) will compile and d(static_cast<T *>(0)) may not. +

      + + +
      +

      +The general idea is right, we need to be able to pass a nullptr to a +shared_ptr, but there are a few borderline editorial issues here. (For +example, the single-argument nullptr_t constructor in the class synopsis +isn't marked explicit, but it is marked explicit in the proposed wording +for 20.6.6.2.1. There is a missing empty parenthesis in the form that +takes a nullptr_t, a deleter, and an allocator.) +

      +

      +More seriously: this issue says that a shared_ptr constructed from a +nullptr is empty. Since "empty" is undefined, it's hard to know whether +that's right. This issue is pending on handling that term better. +

      +

      +Peter suggests definition of empty should be "does not own anything" +

      +

      +Is there an editorial issue that post-conditions should refer to get() = +nullptr, rather than get() = 0? +

      +

      +No strong feeling towards accept or NAD, but prefer to make a decision than leave it open. +

      + +

      +px.reset( nullptr ) seems a somewhat contrived way to write px.reset(), so +I'm not convinced of its utility. +

      +

      +It's similarly not clear to me whether the deleter constructors need to be +extended to take nullptr, but if they need to: +

      +

      +Add +

      template<class D> shared_ptr(nullptr_t p, D d);

      + +

      +Note that this changes the semantics of the new constructors such that they +consistently call d(p) instead of d((T*)0) when p is nullptr. +

      +

      +The ability to be able to pass 0/NULL to a function that takes a shared_ptr +has repeatedly been requested by users, but the other additions that the +proposed resolution makes are not supported by real world demand or +motivating examples. +

      +

      +It might be useful to split the obvious and non-controversial nullptr_t +constructor into a separate issue. Waiting for "empty" to be clarified is +unnecessary; this is effectively an alias for the default constructor. +

      +

      +The new member function at() was recently added to std::map(). It acts +like operator[](), except it throws an exception when the input key is +not found. It is useful when the map is const, the value_type of the +key doesn't have a default constructor, it is an error if the key is +not found, or the user wants to avoid accidentally adding an element to +the map.

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +In contrast to the proposed std::shared_ptr, std::unique_ptr +does currently not support incomplete types, because it +gives no explicit grant - thus instantiating unique_ptr with +an incomplete pointee type T automatically belongs to +undefined behaviour according to 17.6.3.8 [res.on.functions]/2, last +bullet. This is an unnecessary restriction and prevents +many well-established patterns - like the bridge pattern - +for std::unique_ptr. +

      + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +Move to open. The LWG is comfortable with the intent of allowing +incomplete types and making unique_ptr more like shared_ptr, but we are +not comfortable with the wording. The specification for unique_ptr +should be more like that of shared_ptr. We need to know, for individual +member functions, which ones require their types to be complete. The +shared_ptr specification is careful to say that for each function, and +we need the same level of care here. We also aren't comfortable with the +"part of the operational semantic" language; it's not used elsewhere in +the standard, and it's not clear what it means. We need a volunteer to +produce new wording. +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +The proposed changes in the following revision refers to the current state of +N2521 including the assumption that X [unique.ptr.compiletime] will be removed +according to the current state of 740. +

      +

      +The specialization unique_ptr<T[]> has some more restrictive constraints on +type-completeness on T than unique_ptr<T>. The following proposed wordings +try to cope with that. If the committee sees less usefulness on relaxed +constraints on unique_ptr<T[]>, the alternative would be to stop this relaxation +e.g. by adding one further bullet to 20.9.9.3 [unique.ptr.runtime]/1: +"T shall be a complete type, if used as template argument of +unique_ptr<T[], D> +

      +

      +This issue has some overlap with 673, but it seems not to cause any +problems with this one, +because 673 adds only optional requirements on D that do not conflict +with the here discussed +ones, provided that D::pointer's operations (including default +construction, copy construction/assignment, +and pointer conversion) are specified not to throw, otherwise this +would have impact on the +current specification of unique_ptr. +

      + +
        +
      1. +

        +In 20.9.9 [unique.ptr]/2 add as the last sentence to the existing para: +

        + +
        +The unique_ptr provides a semantics of strict ownership. A +unique_ptr owns the object it holds a pointer to. A +unique_ptr is not CopyConstructible, nor +CopyAssignable, however it is MoveConstructible and +MoveAssignable. The template parameter T of +unique_ptr may be an incomplete type.

        +Requires: The expression D()(p) shall be well formed. The default constructor +of D shall not throw an exception. +D must not be a reference type. + +D shall be default constructible, and that construction +shall not throw an exception. + +

        +

        [ +N.B.: There is no need that the expression D()(p) is well-formed at +this point. I assume that the current wording is based on the +corresponding shared_ptr wording. In case of shared_ptr this +requirement is necessary, because the corresponding c'tor *can* fail +and must invoke delete p/d(p) in this case. Unique_ptr is simpler in +this regard. The *only* functions that must insist on well-formedness +and well-definedness of the expression get_deleter()(get()) are (1) +the destructor and (2) reset. The reasoning for the wording change to +explicitly require DefaultConstructible of D is to guarantee that +invocation of +D's default c'tor is both well-formed and well-defined. Note also that +we do *not* need the +requirement that T must be complete, also in contrast to shared_ptr. +Shared_ptr needs this, because it's c'tor is a template c'tor which +potentially requires Convertible<Y*, X*>, which +again requires Completeness of Y, if !SameType<X, Y> +]

      Discussion:

      +

      + +Issue 278 +defines the meaning of the term "invalid iterator" as one that may be +singular. + +

      +

      + +Consider the following code: + +

      +
         std::deque<int> x, y;
      +   std::deque<int>::iterator i = x.end(), j = y.end();
      +   x.swap(y);
      +       
      +

      + +Given that swap() is required not to invalidate iterators +and using the definition above, what should be the expected result of +comparing i and j to x.end() +and y.end(), respectively, after the swap()? + +

      +

      + +I.e., is the expression below required to evaluate +to true? + +

      +
         i == y.end() && j == x.end()
      +       
      +

      + +(There are at least two implementations where the expression +returns false.) + +

      +

      + +More generally, is the definition introduced in issue 278 meant to +make any guarantees about whether iterators actually point to the same +elements or be associated with the same containers after a +non-invalidating operation as they did before? + +

      +

      + +Here's a motivating example intended to demonstrate the importance of +the question: + +

      +
         Container x, y ({ 1, 2});   // pseudocode to initialize y with { 1, 2 }
      +   Container::iterator i = y.begin() + 1;
      +   Container::iterator j = y.end();
      +   std::swap(x, y);
      +   std::find(i, j, 3);
      +       
      +

      + +swap() guarantees that i and j +continue to be valid. Unless the spec says that even though they are +valid they may no longer denote a valid range the code above must be +well-defined. Expert opinions on this differ as does the behavior of +popular implementations for some standard Containers. + +

      +

      +23.2 [container.requirements]p10 states: +

      + +
      +

      +Unless otherwise specified (see 23.2.2.3 and 23.2.5.4) all container types defined in this clause meet the following +additional requirements: +

      +
        + +
      • [...]
      • + +
      • no erase(), pop_back() or pop_front() function throws an exception.
      • + +
      +
      + +

      +23.3.2.3 [deque.modifiers] and 23.4.1.4 [vector.modifiers] offer +additional guarantees for deque/vector insert() and +erase() members. However, 23.2 [container.requirements]p10 does not mention 23.2.5.1 [unord.req.except] that specifies exception safety guarantees +for unordered containers. In addition, 23.2.5.1 [unord.req.except]p1 offers the following guaratee for +erase(): +

      + +
      +No erase() function throws an exception unless that exception +is thrown by the container's Hash or Pred object (if any). +
      + +

      +Summary: +

      + +

      +According to 23.2 [container.requirements]p10 no +erase() function should throw an exception unless otherwise +specified. Although does not explicitly mention 23.2.5.1 [unord.req.except], this section offers additional guarantees +for unordered containers, allowing erase() to throw if +predicate or hash function throws. +

      + +

      +In contrast, associative containers have no exception safety guarantees +section so no erase() function should throw, including +erase(k) that needs to use the predicate function to +perform its work. This means that the predicate of an associative +container is not allowed to throw. +

      + +

      +So: +

      + +
        +
      1. +erase(k) for associative containers is not allowed to throw. On +the other hand, erase(k) for unordered associative containers +is allowed to throw. +
      2. +
      3. +erase(q) for associative containers is not allowed to throw. On +the other hand, erase(q) for unordered associative containers +is allowed to throw if it uses the hash or predicate. +
      4. +
      5. +To fulfill 1), predicates of associative containers are not allowed to throw. +Predicates of unordered associative containers are allowed to throw. +
      6. +
      7. +2) breaks a widely used programming pattern (flyweight pattern) for +unordered containers, where objects are registered in a global map in +their constructors and unregistered in their destructors. If erase(q) is +allowed to throw, the destructor of the object would need to rethrow the +exception or swallow it, leaving the object registered. +
      8. +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Create a new sub-section of 23.2.4 [associative.reqmts] (perhaps [associative.req.except]) titled "Exception +safety guarantees". +

      + +
      +

      +1 For associative containers, no clear() function throws an exception. +erase(k) does not throw an exception unless that exception is thrown by +the container's Pred object (if any). +

      + +

      +2 For associative containers, if an exception is thrown by any operation +from within an insert() function inserting a single element, the +insert() function has no effect. +

      + +

      +3 For associative containers, no swap function throws an exception +unless that exception is thrown by the copy constructor or copy +assignment operator of the container's Pred object (if any). +

      +
      + +

      +Change 23.2.5.1 [unord.req.except]p1: +

      + +
      +For unordered associative containers, no clear() function +throws an exception. No erase(k) +function does not throws an exception +unless that exception is thrown by the container's Hash or Pred object +(if any). +
      + +

      +Change 23.2 [container.requirements]p10 to add references to new sections: +

      + +
      +Unless otherwise specified (see [deque.modifiers], +and [vector.modifiers], [associative.req.except], +[unord.req.except]) all container types defined in this clause meet +the following additional requirements: +
      + +

      +Change 23.2 [container.requirements]p10 referring to swap: +

      + +
      +
        +
      • +no swap() function throws an exception unless that exception is thrown +by the copy constructor or assignment operator of the container's +Compare object (if any; see [associative.reqmts]). +

      Discussion:

      +

      +in the latest publicly available draft, paper +N2641, +in section 29.5 [atomics.types.generic], the following specialization of the template +atomic<> is provided for pointers: +

      + +
      template <class T> struct atomic<T*> : atomic_address { 
      +  T* fetch_add(ptrdiff_t, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile; 
      +  T* fetch_sub(ptrdiff_t, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile; 
      +
      +  atomic() = default; 
      +  constexpr explicit atomic(T); 
      +  atomic(const atomic&) = delete; 
      +  atomic& operator=(const atomic&) = delete; 
      +
      +  T* operator=(T*) volatile; 
      +  T* operator++(int) volatile; 
      +  T* operator--(int) volatile; 
      +  T* operator++() volatile; 
      +  T* operator--() volatile; 
      +  T* operator+=(ptrdiff_t) volatile;
      +  T* operator-=(ptrdiff_t) volatile; 
      +};
      +
      + +

      +First of all, there is a typo in the non-default constructor which +should take a T* rather than a T. +

      + +

      +As you can see, the specialization redefine and therefore hide a few +methods from the base class atomic_address, namely fetch_add, fetch_sub, +operator=, operator+= and operator-=. That's good, but... what happened +to the other methods, in particular these ones: +

      + +
      void store(T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile;
      +T* load( memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      +T* swap( T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      +bool compare_swap( T*&, T*, memory_order, memory_order ) volatile;
      +bool compare_swap( T*&, T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      +
      + +

      +By reading paper +N2427 "C++ Atomic Types and Operations", +I see that the +definition of the specialization atomic<T*> matches the one in the +draft, but in the example implementation the methods load(), swap() +and compare_swap() are indeed present. +

      + +

      +Strangely, the example implementation does not redefine the method +store(). It's true that a T* is always convertible to void*, but not +hiding the void* signature from the base class makes the class +error-prone to say the least: it lets you assign pointers of any type to +a T*, without any hint from the compiler. +

      + +

      +Is there a true intent to remove them from the specialization or are +they just missing from the definition because of a mistake? +

      + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +

      +The proposed revisions are accepted. +

      +

      +Further discussion: why is the ctor labeled "constexpr"? Lawrence said +this permits the object to be statically initialized, and that's +important because otherwise there would be a race condition on +initialization. +

      +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change the synopsis in 29.5 [atomics.types.generic]: +

      + +
      template <class T> struct atomic<T*> : atomic_address { 
      +  void store(T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile;
      +  T* load( memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      +  T* swap( T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      +  bool compare_swap( T*&, T*, memory_order, memory_order ) volatile;
      +  bool compare_swap( T*&, T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      +
      +  T* fetch_add(ptrdiff_t, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile; 
      +  T* fetch_sub(ptrdiff_t, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile; 
      +
      +  atomic() = default; 
      +  constexpr explicit atomic(T*); 
      +  atomic(const atomic&) = delete; 
      +  atomic& operator=(const atomic&) = delete; 
      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The new to_string and to_wstring functions described in 21.5 [string.conversions] +have throws clauses (paragraphs 8 and 16) which say: +

      + +
      +Throws: nothing +
      + +

      +Since all overloads return either a std::string or a std::wstring by value +this throws clause is impossible to realize in general, since the basic_string +constructors can fail due to out-of-memory conditions. Either these throws +clauses should be removed or should be more detailled like: +

      + +
      +Throws: Nothing if the string construction throws nothing +
      + +

      +Further there is an editorial issue in p. 14: All three to_wstring +overloads return a string, which should be wstring instead (The +header <string> synopsis of 21.3 [string.classes] is correct in this +regard). +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +In 21.5 [string.conversions], remove the paragraphs 8 and 16. +

      + +
      +
      string to_string(long long val);

      Discussion:

      +

      +The return clause 21.5 [string.conversions]/paragraph 15 of the new to_wstring +overloads says: +

      + +
      +Returns: each function returns a wstring object holding the character +representation of the value of its argument that would be generated by +calling wsprintf(buf, fmt, val) with a format specifier of L"%lld", L"%ulld", +or L"%f", respectively. +
      + +

      +Problem is: There does not exist any wsprintf function in C99 (I checked +the 2nd edition of ISO 9899, and the first and the second corrigenda from +2001-09-01 and 2004-11-15). What probably meant here is the function +swprintf from <wchar.h>/<cwchar>, but this has the non-equivalent +declaration: +

      + +
      int swprintf(wchar_t * restrict s, size_t n,
      +const wchar_t * restrict format, ...);
      +
      + +

      +therefore the paragraph needs to mention the size_t parameter n. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change the current wording of 21.5 [string.conversions]/p. 15 to: +

      + +
      +Returns: eEach function returns a +wstring object holding the character representation of the +value of its argument that would be generated by calling +wsswprintf(buf, bufsz, fmt, +val) with a format specifier fmt of L"%lld", +L"%ulld", or L"%f", respectively, where buf +designates an internal character buffer of sufficient size bufsz. +
      + +

      +[Hint to the editor: The resolution also adds to mention the name of +the format specifier "fmt"] +

      + +

      +I also would like to remark that the current wording of it's equivalent +paragraph 7 should also mention the meaning of buf and fmt. +

      + +

      +Change the current wording of 21.5 [string.conversions]/p. 7 to: +

      + +
      +Returns: eEach function returns a string object holding the +character representation of the value of its argument that would be +generated by calling sprintf(buf, fmt, val) with a format specifier fmt of +"%lld", "%ulld", or "%f", respectively, where buf designates an internal +character buffer of sufficient size. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +It appears most containers declare but do not define a member-swap +function. +

      + +

      +This is unfortunate, as all overload the swap algorithm to call the +member-swap function! +(required for swappable guarantees [Table 37] and Container Requirements +[Table 87]) +

      + +

      +Note in particular that Table 87 gives semantics of a.swap(b) as swap(a,b), +yet for all containers we define swap(a,b) to call a.swap(b) - a circular +definition. +

      + +

      +A quick survey of clause 23 shows that the following containers provide a +definition for member-swap: +

      + +
      array
      +queue
      +stack
      +vector
      +
      + +

      +Whereas the following declare it, but do not define the semantics: +

      + +
      deque
      +list
      +map
      +multimap
      +multiset
      +priority_queue
      +set
      +unordered_map
      +unordered_multi_map
      +unordered_multi_set
      +unordered_set
      +
      + +

      +Suggested resolution: +

      +Provide a definition for each of the affected containers... +

      +Daniel to provide wording. +N2590 +is no longer applicable. +

      + + +
      +

      1. +It assumes that the proposed resolution for 883 is applied, +which breaks the circularity of definition between member +swap and free swap. +
      2. + +
      3. +It uses the notation of the pre-concept allocator trait +allocator_propagation_map, which might be renamed after the +next refactoring phase of generalized allocators. +
      4. + +
      5. +It requires that compare objects, key equal functions and +hash functions in containers are swapped via unqualified free +swap according to 594. +
      6. +
      +
      + +

      [ +2009-09-30 Daniel adds: +]

      + + +
      +The outcome of this issue should be considered with the outcome of 1198 both in style and in content (e.g. bullet 9 suggests to +define the semantic of void +priority_queue::swap(priority_queue&) in terms of the member +swap of the container). +

      + + +

      [ +2010 Pittsburgh: Ready for Pittsburgh. +]

      + + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      [ +This resolution is based on the September 2009 WP, +N2960, +except that it +assumes that +N2982 +and issues 883 and 1232 have already been applied. Note in +particular that Table 91 in +N2960 +is refered to as Table 90 because +N2982 +removed the old Table 90. This resolution also addresses issue 431. +]

      + +

      +In 23.2.1 [container.requirements.general], replace the a.swap(b) row in table 90, +"container requirements" (was table 91 before the application of N2982 to the +WP): +

      +
      + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
      a.swap(b)void   swap(a,b)Exchange the contents of a and b.(Note A)
      swap(a,b)void   a.swap(b)(Note A)
      +
      +

      +Modify the notes immediately following Table 90 in +23.2.1 [container.requirements.general] as follows (The wording below is after the +application of N2982 to N2960. The editor might also want to combine Notes +A and B into one.): +

      +

      +Notes: the algorithms swap(), equal() and lexicographical_compare() +are defined in Clause 25. Those entries marked "(Note A)" or "(Note B)" +should have linear complexity for array and constant +complexity for all other standard containers. +

      +

      +In 23.2.1 [container.requirements.general], before paragraph 8, add: +

      +

      +The expression a.swap(b), for containers a +and b of a standard container type other than array, +exchanges the values of a and b without invoking any +move, copy, or swap operations on the individual container elements. +Any Compare, Pred, or Hash function +objects belonging to a and b shall be +swappable and are exchanged by unqualified calls +to non-member swap. If +allocator_traits<allocator_type>::propagate_on_container_swap::value +== true, then the allocators of a and b are +also exchanged using an unqualified call to non-member swap. +Otherwise, the behavior is undefined unless a.get_allocator() == +b.get_allocator(). Each iterator refering to an element in one +container before the swap shall refer to the same element in the other +container after the swap. It is unspecified whether an iterator with +value a.end() before the swap will have +value b.end() after the swap. In addition to being available via +inclusion of the <utility> header, the swap +function template in 25.3.3 [alg.swap] is also available within the definition of +every standard container's swap function. +

      +

      [ +Note to the editor: Paragraph 2 starts with a sentence fragment, +clearly from an editing or source-control error. +]

      + +

      +

      +For associative containers, if an exception is thrown by any operation from +within an insert() function inserting a single element, +the insert() function has no effect. +

      +

      +For associative containers, no swap function throws an exception +unless that exception is thrown by the copy constructor +or copy assignment operatorswap of the +container's PredCompare object (if any). +

      775. Tuple indexing should be unsigned?

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The tuple element access API identifies the element in the sequence +using signed integers, and then goes on to enforce the requirement that +I be >= 0. There is a much easier way to do this - declare I as +unsigned. +

      +

      +In fact the proposal is to use std::size_t, matching the type used in the tuple_size API. +

      +

      +A second suggestion is that it is hard to imagine an API that deduces +and index at compile time and returns a reference throwing an exception. +Add a specific Throws: Nothing paragraph to each element +access API. +

      +

      +In addition to tuple, update the API applies to +pair and array, and should be updated +accordingly. +

      + +

      +A third observation is that the return type of the get +functions for std::pair is pseudo-code, but it is not +clearly marked as such. There is actually no need for pseudo-code as +the return type can be specified precisely with a call to +tuple_element. This is already done for +std::tuple, and std::array does not have a +problem as all elements are of type T. +

      + + +

      776. Undescribed assign function of std::array

      Discussion:

      +

      +The class template array synopsis in 23.3.1 [array]/3 declares a member +function +

      + +
      void assign(const T& u);
      +
      + +

      +which's semantic is no-where described. Since this signature is +not part of the container requirements, such a semantic cannot +be derived by those. +

      + +

      +I found only one reference to this function in the issue list, +588 where the question is raised: +

      + +
      +what's the effect of calling assign(T&) on a zero-sized array? +
      + +

      +which does not answer the basic question of this issue. +

      + +

      +If this function shall be part of the std::array, it's probable +semantic should correspond to that of boost::array, but of +course such wording must be added. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Just after the section 23.3.1.4 [array.data] add the following new section: +

      + +

      +23.2.1.5 array::fill [array.fill] +

      + +
      +
      void fill(const T& u);

      +1: Effects: fill_n(begin(), N, u) +

      +
      + +

      +[N.B: I wonder, why class array does not have a "modifiers" +section. If it had, then assign would naturally belong to it] +

      + +

      +Change the synopsis in 23.3.1 [array]/3: +

      + +
      template <class T, size_t N>
      +struct array { 
      +  ...

      +The load functions are defined as +

      C atomic_load(volatile A* object);
      +C atomic_load_explicit(volatile A* object, memory_order);
      +C A::load(memory_order order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile;
      +
      + +

      +which prevents their use in const contexts. +

      + +

      [ +post Bellevue Peter adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Issue 777 suggests making atomic_load operate on const objects. There is a +subtle point here. Atomic loads do not generally write to the object, except +potentially for the memory_order_seq_cst constraint. Depending on the +architecture, a dummy write with the same value may be required to be issued +by the atomic load to maintain sequential consistency. This, in turn, may +make the following code: +

      + +
      const atomic_int x{};
      +
      +int main()
      +{
      +  x.load();
      +}
      +
      + +

      +dump core under a straightforward implementation that puts const objects in +a read-only section. +

      +

      +There are ways to sidestep the problem, but it needs to be considered. +

      +

      +The tradeoff is between making the data member of the atomic types +mutable and requiring the user to explicitly mark atomic members as +mutable, as is already the case with mutexes. +

      +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add the const qualifier to *object and *this. +

      + +
      C atomic_load(const volatile A* object);
      +C atomic_load_explicit(const volatile A* object, memory_order);
      +C A::load(memory_order order = memory_order_seq_cst) const volatile;

      • +no assignment requirements are specified (neither implicit nor explicit). +

      Discussion:

      +

      +A comparision of the N2461 header <complex> synopsis ([complex.syn]) +with the C99 standard (ISO 9899, 2nd edition and the two corrigenda) show +some complex functions that are missing in C++. These are: +

      + +
        +
      1. +7.3.9.4: (required elements of the C99 library)
        +The cproj functions +
      2. +
      3. +7.26.1: (optional elements of the C99 library)
        +
        cerf    cerfc    cexp2
        +cexpm1  clog10   clog1p
        +clog2   clgamma  ctgamma
        +
        +
      4. +
      + +

      +I propose that at least the required cproj overloads are provided as equivalent +C++ functions. This addition is easy to do in one sentence (delegation to C99 +function). +

      + +

      +Please note also that the current entry polar +in 26.4.9 [cmplx.over]/1 +should be removed from the mentioned overload list. It does not make sense to require that a +function already expecting scalar arguments +should cast these arguments into corresponding +complex<T> arguments, which are not accepted by +this function. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +In 26.4.1 [complex.syn] add just between the declaration of conj and fabs: +

      + +
      template<class T> complex<T> conj(const complex<T>&);
      +template<class T> complex<T> proj(const complex<T>&);
      +template<class T> complex<T> fabs(const complex<T>&);
      +
      + +

      +In 26.4.7 [complex.value.ops] just after p.6 (return clause of conj) add: +

      + +
      +
      template<class T> complex<T> proj(const complex<T>& x);
      +
      +
      + +Effects: Behaves the same as C99 function cproj, defined in +subclause 7.3.9.4." +
      +
      + +

      +In 26.4.9 [cmplx.over]/1, add one further entry proj to +the overload list. +

      + +
      +

      +The following function templates shall have additional overloads: +

      +
      arg           norm 
      +conj          polar proj
      +imag          real

      782. Extended seed_seq constructor is useless

      Discussion:

      +

      +Part of the resolution of n2423, issue 8 was the proposal to +extend the seed_seq constructor accepting an input range +as follows (which is now part of N2461): +

      + +
      template<class InputIterator,
      +size_t u = numeric_limits<iterator_traits<InputIterator>::value_type>::digits>
      +seed_seq(InputIterator begin, InputIterator end);
      +
      + +

      +First, the expression iterator_traits<InputIterator>::value_type +is invalid due to missing typename keyword, which is easy to +fix. +

      + +

      +Second (and worse), while the language now supports default +template arguments of function templates, this customization +point via the second size_t template parameter is of no advantage, +because u can never be deduced, and worse - because it is a +constructor function template - it can also never be explicitly +provided (14.8.1 [temp.arg.explicit]/7). +

      + +

      +The question arises, which advantages result from a compile-time +knowledge of u versus a run time knowledge? If run time knowledge +suffices, this parameter should be provided as normal function +default argument [Resolution marked (A)], if compile-time knowledge +is important, this could be done via a tagging template or more +user-friendly via a standardized helper generator function +(make_seed_seq), which allows this [Resolution marked (B)]. +

      + +

      +

      +Fermilab does not have a strong opinion. Would prefer to go with +solution A. Bill agrees that solution A is a lot simpler and does the +job. +

      +

      +Proposed Resolution: Accept Solution A. +

        +In 26.5.7.1 [rand.util.seedseq]/2, class seed_seq synopsis replace: +

        +and do a similar replacement in the member description between +p.3 and p.4. +

      2. + +
      3. +

        +In 26.5.7.1 [rand.util.seedseq]/2, class seed_seq synopsis and in the +member description between p.3 and p.4 replace: +

        + +
        template<class InputIterator,

        +      seed_seq(InputIterator begin, InputIterator end);
        +template<class InputIterator, size_t u>
        +seed_seq(InputIterator begin, InputIterator end, implementation-defined s);
        +
        + +

        +In 26.5.2 [rand.synopsis], header <random> synopsis, immediately after the +class seed_seq declaration and in 26.5.7.1 [rand.util.seedseq]/2, immediately +after the class seed_seq definition add: +

        + +

        +  seed_seq make_seed_seq(InputIterator begin, InputIterator end);
        +
        + +

        +In 26.5.7.1 [rand.util.seedseq], just before p.5 insert two paragraphs: +

        + +
        +

        +The first constructor behaves as if it would provide an +integral constant expression u of type size_t of value +numeric_limits<typename iterator_traits<InputIterator>::value_type>::digits. +

        +

        +The second constructor uses an implementation-defined mechanism +to provide an integral constant expression u of type size_t and +is called by the function make_seed_seq. +

        +
        + +

        +In 26.5.7.1 [rand.util.seedseq], just after the last paragraph add: +

        + +
        +
        template<size_t u, class InputIterator>
        +   seed_seq make_seed_seq(InputIterator begin, InputIterator end);
        +
        +
        +

        +where u is used to construct an object s of implementation-defined type. +

      783. thread::id reuse

      Discussion:

      +

      +The current working paper +(N2497, +integrated just before Bellevue) is +not completely clear whether a given thread::id value may be reused once +a thread has exited and has been joined or detached. Posix allows +thread ids (pthread_t values) to be reused in this case. Although it is +not completely clear whether this originally was the right decision, it +is clearly the established practice, and we believe it was always the +intent of the C++ threads API to follow Posix and allow this. Howard +Hinnant's example implementation implicitly relies on allowing reuse +of ids, since it uses Posix thread ids directly. +

      + +

      +It is important to be clear on this point, since it the reuse of thread +ids often requires extra care in client code, which would not be +necessary if thread ids were unique across all time. For example, a +hash table indexed by thread id may have to be careful not to associate +data values from an old thread with a new one that happens to reuse the +id. Simply removing the old entry after joining a thread may not be +sufficient, if it creates a visible window between the join and removal +during which a new thread with the same id could have been created and +added to the table. +

      + +

      [ +post Bellevue Peter adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +There is a real issue with thread::id reuse, but I urge the LWG to +reconsider fixing this by disallowing reuse, rather than explicitly allowing +it. Dealing with thread id reuse is an incredibly painful exercise that +would just force the world to reimplement a non-conflicting thread::id over +and over. +

      +

      +In addition, it would be nice if a thread::id could be manipulated +atomically in a lock-free manner, as motivated by the recursive lock +example: +

      +http://www.decadentplace.org.uk/pipermail/cpp-threads/2006-August/001091.html +

      +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add a sentence to 30.3.1.1 [thread.thread.id]/p1: +

      + +
      +

      +An object of type thread::id provides +a unique identifier for each thread of execution +and a single distinct value for all thread objects +that do not represent a thread of execution ([thread.threads.class]). +Each thread of execution has a thread::id +that is not equal to the thread::id +of other threads of execution +and that is not equal to +the thread::id of std::thread objects +that do not represent threads of execution. +The library may reuse the value of a thread::id of a +terminated thread that can no longer be joined. +

      786. Thread library timed waits, UTC and monotonic clocks

      Discussion:

      +

      +The draft C++0x thread library requires that the time points of type +system_time and returned by get_system_time() represent Coordinated +Universal Time (UTC) (section [datetime.system]). This can lead to +surprising behavior when a library user performs a duration-based wait, +such as condition_variable::timed_wait(). A complete explanation of the +problem may be found in the +Rationale for the Monotonic Clock +section in POSIX, but in summary: +

      + +
        +
      • +Operations such as condition_variable::timed_wait() (and its POSIX +equivalent, pthread_cond_timedwait()) are specified using absolute times +to address the problem of spurious wakeups. +
      • + +
      • +The typical use of the timed wait operations is to perform a relative +wait. This may be achieved by first calculating an absolute time as the +sum of the current time and the desired duration. In fact, the C++0x +thread library includes duration-based overloads of +condition_variable::timed_wait() that behave as if by calling the +corresponding absolute time overload with a time point value of +get_system_time() + rel_time. +
      • + +
      • +A UTC clock may be affected by changes to the system time, such as +synchronization with an external source, leap seconds, or manual changes +to the clock. +
      • + +
      • +Should the clock change during a timed wait operation, the actual +duration of the wait will not be the expected length. For example, a +user may intend a timed wait of one second duration but, due to an +adjustment of the system clock backwards by a minute, the wait instead +takes 61 seconds. +
      • +
      + +

      +POSIX solves the problem by introducing a new monotonic clock, which is +unaffected by changes to the system time. When a condition variable is +initialized, the user may specify whether the monotonic clock is to be +used. (It is worth noting that on POSIX systems it is not possible to +use condition_variable::native_handle() to access this facility, since +the desired clock type must be specified during construction of the +condition variable object.) +

      + +

      +In the context of the C++0x thread library, there are added dimensions +to the problem due to the need to support platforms other than POSIX: +

      + +
        +
      • +Some environments (such as embedded systems) do not have a UTC clock, but do have a monotonic clock. +
      • + +
      • +Some environments do not have a monotonic clock, but do have a UTC clock. +
      • + +
      • +The Microsoft Windows API's synchronization functions use relative +timeouts based on an implied monotonic clock. A program that switches +from the Windows API to the C++0x thread library will now find itself +susceptible to clock changes. +
      • +
      + +

      +One possible minimal solution: +

      + +
        +
      • +Strike normative references to UTC and an epoch based on 1970-01-01. +
      • + +
      • +Make the semantics of system_time and get_system_time() +implementation-defined (i.e standard library implementors may choose the +appropriate underlying clock based on the capabilities of the target +platform). +
      • + +
      • +Add a non-normative note encouraging use of a monotonic clock. +
      • + +
      • +Remove system_time::seconds_since_epoch(). +
      • + +
      • +Change the constructor explicit system_time(time_t secs, nanoseconds ns += 0) to explicit system_time(nanoseconds ns). +

      + +
      +

      +It is not clear what the initial state of an istream_iterator should be. Is +_value_ initialized by reading the stream, or default/value initialized? If +it is initialized by reading the stream, what happens if the initialization +is deferred until first dereference, when ideally the iterator value should +have been that of an end-of-stream iterator which is not safely +dereferencable? +

      + +

      +Recommendation: Specify _value_ is initialized by reading the stream, or +the iterator takes on the end-of-stream value if the stream is empty. +

      +
      + +

      +The description of how an istream_iterator object becomes an +end-of-stream iterator is a) ambiguous and b) out of date WRT +issue 468: +

      + +
      +istream_iterator reads (using operator>>) successive elements from the +input stream for which it was constructed. After it is constructed, and +every time ++ is used, the iterator reads and stores a value of T. If +the end of stream is reached (operator void*() on the stream returns +false), the iterator becomes equal to the end-of-stream iterator value. +The constructor with no arguments istream_iterator() always constructs +an end of stream input iterator object, which is the only legitimate +iterator to be used for the end condition. The result of operator* on an +end of stream is not defined. For any other iterator value a const T& is +returned. The result of operator-> on an end of stream is not defined. +For any other iterator value a const T* is returned. It is impossible to +store things into istream iterators. The main peculiarity of the istream +iterators is the fact that ++ operators are not equality preserving, +that is, i == j does not guarantee at all that ++i == ++j. Every time ++ +is used a new value is read. +
      + +

      +istream::operator void*() returns null if istream::fail() is true, +otherwise non-null. istream::fail() returns true if failbit or +badbit is set in rdstate(). Reaching the end of stream doesn't +necessarily imply that failbit or badbit is set (e.g., after +extracting an int from stringstream("123") the stream object will +have reached the end of stream but fail() is false and operator +void*() will return a non-null value). +

      + +

      +Also I would prefer to be explicit about calling fail() here +(there is no operator void*() anymore.) +

      +N2521 +and its earlier predecessors have moved the old binders from +[lib.binders] to D.11 [depr.lib.binders] thereby introducing some renaming +of the template parameter names (Operation -> Fn). During this +renaming process the protected data member op was also renamed to +fn, which seems as an unnecessary interface breakage to me - even if +this user access point is probably rarely used. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change D.11.1 [depr.lib.binder.1st]: +

      + +
      +
      template <class Fn> 
      +class binder1st 
      +  : public unary_function<typename Fn::second_argument_type, 
      +                          typename Fn::result_type> { 
      +protected: 
      +  Fn fn op; 
      +  typename Fn::first_argument_type value; 
      +public: 
      +  binder1st(const Fn& x, 
      +            const typename Fn::first_argument_type& y); 
      +  typename Fn::result_type 
      +    operator()(const typename Fn::second_argument_type& x) const; 
      +  typename Fn::result_type 
      +    operator()(typename Fn::second_argument_type& x) const; 
      +};
      +
      + +
      +

      +-1- The constructor initializes fn op with x and value with y. +

      +

      +-2- operator() returns fnop(value,x). +

      +
      +
      + +

      +Change D.11.3 [depr.lib.binder.2nd]: +

      + +

      template <class Fn> 
      +class binder2nd

      801. tuple and pair trivial members

      Discussion:

      +

      +Classes with trivial special member functions are inherently more +efficient than classes without such functions. This efficiency is +particularly pronounced on modern ABIs that can pass small classes +in registers. Examples include value classes such as complex numbers +and floating-point intervals. Perhaps more important, though, are +classes that are simple collections, like pair and tuple. When the +parameter types of these classes are trivial, the pairs and tuples +themselves can be trivial, leading to substantial performance wins. +

      +

      +The current working draft make specification of trivial functions +(where possible) much easer through defaulted and deleted functions. +As long as the semantics of defaulted and deleted functions match +the intended semantics, specification of defaulted and deleted +functions will yield more efficient programs. +

      +

      +There are at least two cases where specification of an explicitly +defaulted function may be desirable. +

      +

      +First, the std::pair template has a non-trivial default constructor, +which prevents static initialization of the pair even when the +types are statically initializable. Changing the definition to +

      + +
      pair() = default;
      +
      + +

      +would enable such initialization. Unfortunately, the change is +not semantically neutral in that the current definition effectively +forces value initialization whereas the change would not value +initialize in some contexts. +

      + +

      +** Does the committee confirm that forced value initialization +was the intent? If not, does the committee wish to change the +behavior of std::pair in C++0x? +

      +

      +Second, the same default constructor issue applies to std::tuple. +Furthermore, the tuple copy constructor is current non-trivial, +which effectively prevents passing it in registers. To enable +passing tuples in registers, the copy constructor should be +make explicitly defaulted. The new declarations are: +

      + +
      tuple() = default;
      +tuple(const tuple&) = default;
      +
      + +

      +This changes is not implementation neutral. In particular, it +prevents implementations based on pointers to the parameter +types. It does however, permit implementations using the +parameter types as bases. +

      +

      +** How does the committee wish to trade implementation +efficiency versus implementation flexibility? +

      + +

      [ +Bellevue: +]

      + + +
      +

      +General agreement; the first half of the issue is NAD. +

      +

      +Before voting on the second half, it was agreed that a "Strongly Favor" +vote meant support for trivial tuples (assuming usual requirements met), +even at the expense of other desired qualities. A "Weakly Favor" vote +meant support only if not at the expense of other desired qualities. +

      +

      +Concensus: Go forward, but not at expense of other desired qualities. +

      +

      +It was agreed to Alisdair should fold this work in with his other +pair/tuple action items, above, and that issue 801 should be "open", but +tabled until Alisdair's proposals are disposed of. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-27 Daniel adds: +]

      + + +
      +This is partly solved by 1117. +

      + +

      [ +2009-07-20 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Basically, this issue is what should we do with the default constructor +for pairs and tuples of trivial types. The motivation of the issue was +to force static initialization rather than dynamic initialization, and +was rejected in the case of pair as it would change the meaning of +existing programs. The advice was "do the best we can" for tuple +without changing existing meaning. +

      + +

      +Frankfurt seems to simply wait and see the resolution on no-throw move +constructors, which (I believe) is only tangentially related to this +issue, but as good as any to defer until Santa Cruz. +

      + +

      +Looking again now, I think constant (static) initialization for pair can +be salvaged by making the default construct constexpr. I have a +clarification from Core that this is intended to work, even if the +constructor is not trivial/constexpr, so long as no temporaries are +implied in the process (even if elided). +

      +
      + +

      [ +2010 Rapperswil: +]

      + + +

        const error_category& cat_; // exposition only
        +
        +

        +which is used to define the semantics of several members. The decision +to use a member of reference type lead to several problems: +

        +
          +
        1. +The classes are not (Copy)Assignable, which is probably not the intent. +
        2. +
        3. +The post conditions of all modifiers from +19.5.2.3 [syserr.errcode.modifiers] and 19.5.3.3 [syserr.errcondition.modifiers], resp., +cannot be fulfilled. +
        4. +
        +

        +The simple fix would be to replace the reference by a pointer member. +

        +
      2. + +
      3. +I would like to give the editorial remark that in both classes the +constrained operator= +overload (template with ErrorCodeEnum argument) makes in invalid +usage of std::enable_if: By using the default value for the second enable_if +parameter the return type would be defined to be void& even in otherwise +valid circumstances - this return type must be explicitly provided (In +error_condition the first declaration uses an explicit value, but of wrong +type). +

      Names Considered
      portable +Too non-specific. Did not wish to reserve such a common word in +namespace std. Not quite the right meaning, either. +
      portable_error +Too long. Explicit qualification is always required for scoped enums, so +a short name is desirable. Not quite the right meaning, either. May be +misleading because *_error in the std lib is usually an exception class +name. +
      std_error +Fairly short, yet explicit. But in fully qualified names like +std::std_error::not_enough_memory, the std_ would be unfortunate. Not +quite the right meaning, either. May be misleading because *_error in +the std lib is usually an exception class name. +
      generic +Short enough. The category could be generic_category. Fully qualified +names like std::generic::not_enough_memory read well. Reserving in +namespace std seems dicey. +
      generic_error +Longish. The category could be generic_category. Fully qualified names +like std::generic_error::not_enough_memory read well. Misleading because +*_error in the std lib is usually an exception class name. +
      generic_err +A bit less longish. The category could be generic_category. Fully +qualified names like std::generic_err::not_enough_memory read well. +
      gen_err +Shorter still. The category could be generic_category. Fully qualified +names like std::gen_err::not_enough_memory read well. +
      generr +Shorter still. The category could be generic_category. Fully qualified +names like std::generr::not_enough_memory read well. +
      error +Shorter still. The category could be generic_category. Fully qualified +names like std::error::not_enough_memory read well. Do we want to use +this general a name? +

      806. unique_ptr::reset effects incorrect, too permissive

      Discussion:

      +

      +void unique_ptr::reset(T* p = 0) is currently specified as: +

      + +
      +Effects: If p == get() there are no effects. Otherwise get_deleter()(get()). +
      + +

      +There are two problems with this. One, if get() == 0 and p != 0, the +deleter is called with a NULL pointer, and this is probably not what's +intended (the destructor avoids calling the deleter with 0.) +

      + +

      +Two, the special check for get() == p is generally not needed and such a +situation usually indicates an error in the client code, which is being +masked. As a data point, boost::shared_ptr was changed to assert on such +self-resets in 2001 and there were no complaints. +

      + +

      +One might think that self-resets are necessary for operator= to work; it's specified to perform +

      + +
      reset( u.release() );
      +
      + +

      +and the self-assignment +

      + +
      p = move(p);
      +
      + +

      +might appear to result in a self-reset. But it doesn't; the release() is +performed first, zeroing the stored pointer. In other words, p.reset( +q.release() ) works even when p and q are the same unique_ptr, and there +is no need to special-case p.reset( q.get() ) to work in a similar +scenario, as it definitely doesn't when p and q are separate. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      +Change 20.9.9.2.5 [unique.ptr.single.modifiers]: +

      +p4 (forward) says: +

      +
      +Return type: If T is an lvalue-reference type, an lvalue; otherwise, an rvalue. +
      + +

      +First of all, lvalue-ness and rvalue-ness are properties of an expression, +not of a type (see 3.10 [basic.lval]). Thus, the phrasing "Return type" is wrong. +Second, the phrase says exactly what the core language wording says for +folding references in 14.3.1 [temp.arg.type]/p4 and for function return values +in 5.2.2 [expr.call]/p10. (If we feel the wording should be retained, it should +at most be a note with cross-references to those sections.) +

      +

      +The prose after the example talks about "forwarding as an int& (an lvalue)" etc. +In my opinion, this is a category error: "int&" is a type, "lvalue" is a +property of an expression, orthogonal to its type. (Btw, expressions cannot +have reference type, ever.) +

      +

      +Similar with move: +

      +

      809. std::swap should be overloaded for array types

      +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +For the sake of generic programming, the header <algorithm> should provide an +overload of std::swap for array types: +

      template<class T, size_t N> void swap(T (&a)[N], T (&b)[N]);
      +
      +

      + +

      +It became apparent to me that this overload is missing, when I considered how to write a swap +function for a generic wrapper class template. +(Actually I was thinking of Boost's value_initialized.) +Please look at the following template, W, and suppose that is intended to be a very +generic wrapper: +

      template<class T> class W {
      +public:
      +   T data;
      +};
      +
      +Clearly W<T> is CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable, and therefore +Swappable, whenever T is CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable. +Moreover, W<T> is also Swappable when T is an array type +whose element type is CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable. +Still it is recommended to add a custom swap function template to such a class template, +for the sake of efficiency and exception safety. +(E.g., Scott Meyers, Effective C++, Third Edition, item 25: Consider support for a non-throwing +swap.) +This function template is typically written as follows: +
      template<class T> void swap(W<T>& x, W<T>& y) {
      +  using std::swap;
      +  swap(x.data, y.data);
      +}
      +
      +Unfortunately, this will introduce an undesirable inconsistency, when T is an array. +For instance, W<std::string[8]> is Swappable, but the current Standard does not +allow calling the custom swap function that was especially written for W! +
      W<std::string[8]> w1, w2;  // Two objects of a Swappable type.
      +std::swap(w1, w2);  // Well-defined, but inefficient.
      +using std::swap;
      +swap(w1, w2);  // Ill-formed, just because ADL finds W's swap function!!!
      +
      + +W's swap function would try to call std::swap for an array, +std::string[8], which is not supported by the Standard Library. +This issue is easily solved by providing an overload of std::swap for array types. +This swap function should be implemented in terms of swapping the elements of the arrays, so that +it would be non-throwing for arrays whose element types have a non-throwing swap. +

      + +

      +Note that such an overload of std::swap should also support multi-dimensional +arrays. Fortunately that isn't really an issue, because it would do so automatically, by +means of recursion. +

      + +

      +For your information, there was a discussion on this issue at comp.lang.c++.moderated: [Standard +Library] Shouldn't std::swap be overloaded for C-style arrays? +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add an extra condition to the definition of Swappable requirements [swappable] in 20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements]: +

      +
      +- T is Swappable if T is an array type whose element type is Swappable. +
      +

      +Add the following to 25.3.3 [alg.swap]: +

      +
      +
      template<class T, size_t N> void swap(T (&a)[N], T (&b)[N]);
      +
      +
      +Requires: Type T shall be Swappable. +

      +Effects: swap_ranges(a, a + N, b); +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The recent draft (as well as the original proposal n2072) uses an +operational semantic +for get_money ([ext.manip]/4) and put_money ([ext.manip]/6), which uses +

      + +
      istreambuf_iterator<charT>
      +
      + +

      +and +

      + +
      ostreambuf_iterator<charT>
      +
      + +

      +resp, instead of the iterator instances, with explicitly provided +traits argument (The operational semantic defined by f is also traits +dependent). This is an obvious oversight because both *stream_buf +c'tors expect a basic_streambuf<charT,traits> as argument. +

      +

      +The same problem occurs within the get_time and put_time semantic +where additional to the problem we +have an editorial issue in get_time (streambuf_iterator instead of +istreambuf_iterator). +

      +I just got a bug report about that, because it's valid C++03, but not +C++0x. The important realization, for me, is that the emplace +proposal---which made push_back variadic, causing the push_back(0) +issue---didn't cause this break in backward compatibility. The break +actually happened when we added this pair constructor as part of adding +rvalue references into the language, long before variadic templates or +emplace came along: +

      + +
      template<class U, class V> pair(U&& x, V&& y);
      +
      + +

      +Now, concepts will address this issue by constraining that pair +constructor to only U's and V's that can properly construct "first" and +"second", e.g. (from +N2322): +

      template<class U , class V >

      Discussion:

      +

      +Several places in 20.9.10.2 [util.smartptr.shared] refer to an "empty" shared_ptr. +However, that term is nowhere defined. The closest thing we have to a +definition is that the default constructor creates an empty shared_ptr +and that a copy of a default-constructed shared_ptr is empty. Are any +other shared_ptrs empty? For example, is shared_ptr((T*) 0) empty? What +are the properties of an empty shared_ptr? We should either clarify this +term or stop using it. +

      +

      +One reason it's not good enough to leave this term up to the reader's +intuition is that, in light of +N2351 +and issue 711, most readers' +intuitive understanding is likely to be wrong. Intuitively one might +expect that an empty shared_ptr is one that doesn't store a pointer, +but, whatever the definition is, that isn't it. +

      + +

      [ +Peter adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Or, what is an "empty" shared_ptr? +

      + +
        +
      • +

        +Are any other shared_ptrs empty? +

        +

        +Yes. Whether a given shared_ptr instance is empty or not is (*) +completely specified by the last mutating operation on that instance. +Give me an example and I'll tell you whether the shared_ptr is empty or +not. +

        +
        +(*) If it isn't, this is a legitimate defect. +
        +
      • + +
      • +

        +For example, is shared_ptr((T*) 0) empty? +

        +

        +No. If it were empty, it would have a use_count() of 0, whereas it is +specified to have an use_count() of 1. +

        +
      • + +
      • +

        +What are the properties of an empty shared_ptr? +

        +

        +The properties of an empty shared_ptr can be derived from the +specification. One example is that its destructor is a no-op. Another is +that its use_count() returns 0. I can enumerate the full list if you +really like. +

        +
      • + +
      • +

        +We should either clarify this term or stop using it. +

        +

        +I don't agree with the imperative tone +

        +

        +A clarification would be either a no-op - if it doesn't contradict the +existing wording - or a big mistake if it does. +

        +

        +I agree that a clarification that is formally a no-op may add value. +

        +
      • + +
      • +

        +However, that term is nowhere defined. +

        +

        +Terms can be useful without a definition. Consider the following +simplistic example. We have a type X with the following operations +defined: +

        +
        X x;
        +X x2(x);
        +X f(X x);
        +X g(X x1, X x2);
        +
        +

        +A default-constructed value is green.
        +A copy has the same color as the original.
        +f(x) returns a red value if the argument is green, a green value otherwise.
        +g(x1,x2) returns a green value if the arguments are of the same color, a red value otherwise. +

        + +

        +Given these definitions, you can determine the color of every instance +of type X, even if you have absolutely no idea what green and red mean. +

        + +

        +Green and red are "nowhere defined" and completely defined at the same time. +

        +
      • +
      + +

      +Alisdair's wording is fine. +

      +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Append the following sentance to 20.9.10.2 [util.smartptr.shared] +

      +
      +The shared_ptr class template stores a pointer, usually obtained +via new. shared_ptr implements semantics of +shared ownership; the last remaining owner of the pointer is responsible for +destroying the object, or otherwise releasing the resources associated with +the stored pointer. A shared_ptr object that does not own +a pointer is said to be empty. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +std::function and reference_closure should use "perfect forwarding" as +described in the rvalue core proposal. +

      + +

      [ +Sophia Antipolis: +]

      + + +
      +According to Doug Gregor, as far as std::function is concerned, perfect +forwarding can not be obtained because of type erasure. Not everyone +agreed with this diagnosis of forwarding. +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-01 Howard adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Sebastian Gesemann brought to my attention that the CopyConstructible +requirement on function's ArgTypes... is an unnecessary +restriction. +

      + +
      template<Returnable R, CopyConstructible... ArgTypes>
      +class function<R(ArgTypes...)>
      +...
      +
      + +

      +On further investigation, this complaint seemed to be the same +issue as this one. I believe the reason CopyConstructible was put +on ArgTypes in the first place was because of the nature of the +invoke member: +

      + +
      template<class R, class ...ArgTypes>
      +R
      +function<R(ArgTypes...)>::operator()(ArgTypes... arg) const
      +{
      +    if (f_ == 0)
      +        throw bad_function_call();
      +    return (*f_)(arg...);
      +}
      +
      + +

      +However now with rvalue-refs, "by value" no longer implies CopyConstructible +(as Sebastian correctly points out). If rvalue arguments are supplied, MoveConstructible +is sufficient. Furthermore, the constraint need not be applied in function +if I understand correctly. Rather the client must apply the proper constraints +at the call site. Therefore, at the very least, I recommend that CopyConstructible +be removed from the template class function. +

      + +

      +Furthermore we need to mandate that the invoker is coded as: +

      + +
      template<class R, class ...ArgTypes>
      +R
      +function<R(ArgTypes...)>::operator()(ArgTypes... arg) const
      +{
      +    if (f_ == 0)
      +        throw bad_function_call();
      +    return (*f_)(std::forward<ArgTypes>(arg)...);
      +}
      +
      + +

      +Note that ArgTypes&& (the "perfect forwarding signature") is not +appropriate here as this is not a deduced context for ArgTypes. Instead +the client's arguments must implicitly convert to the non-deduced ArgType +type. Catching these arguments by value makes sense to enable decay. +

      + +

      +Next forward is used to move the ArgTypes as efficiently as +possible, and also with minimum requirements (not CopyConstructible) +to the type-erased functor. For object types, this will be a move. For +reference type ArgTypes, this will be a copy. The end result must be +that the following is a valid program: +

      + +
      #include <functional>
      +#include <memory>
      +#include <cassert>
      +
      +std::unique_ptr<int>
      +f(std::unique_ptr<int> p, int& i)
      +{
      +    ++i;
      +    return std::move(p);
      +}
      +
      +int main()
      +{
      +    int i = 2;
      +    std::function<std::unique_ptr<int>(std::unique_ptr<int>,
      +                                       int&> g(f);
      +    std::unique_ptr<int> p = g(std::unique_ptr<int>(new int(1)), i);
      +    assert(*p == 1);
      +    assert(i == 3);
      +}
      +
      + +

      [ +Tested in pre-concepts rvalue-ref-enabled compiler. +]

      + + +

      +In the example above, the first ArgType is unique_ptr<int> +and the second ArgType is int&. Both must work! +

      + +
        +
      1. +Recommends to replace the CopyConstructible requirement by a +MoveConstructible requirement +
      2. +
      3. +Says: "Furthermore, the constraint need not be applied in function if I +understand correctly. Rather the client must apply the proper constraints +at the call site" +
      4. +
      +

      +I'm fine with (a), but I think comment (b) is incorrect, at least in the +sense I read these sentences. Let's look at Howard's example code: +

      + +
      function<R(ArgTypes...)>::operator()(ArgTypes... arg) const
      +{
      +   if (f_ == 0)
      +       throw bad_function_call();
      +   return (*f_)(std::forward<ArgTypes>(arg)...);
      +}
      +
      + +

      +In the constrained scope of this operator() overload the expression +"(*f_)(std::forward<ArgTypes>(arg)...)" must be valid. How can it +do so, if ArgTypes aren't at least MoveConstructible? +

      +20.8.14.2 [func.wrap.func] says +

      + +
      +2 A function object f of type F is Callable for argument +types T1, T2, ..., TN in ArgTypes and a return type +R, if, given lvalues t1, t2, ..., tN of types T1, T2, ..., +TN, respectively, INVOKE (f, t1, t2, ..., tN) is well formed +(20.7.2) and, if R is not void, convertible to R. +
      + +

      +N.B. lvalues, which means you can't use function<R(T&&)> +or function<R(unique_ptr<T>)> +

      + +

      +I recently implemented rvalue arguments in GCC's std::function, all +that was needed was to use std::forward<ArgTypes> in a few +places. The example in issue 815 works. +

      + +

      +I think 815 could be resolved by removing the requirement that the target +function be callable with lvalues. Saying ArgTypes need to be +CopyConstructible is wrong, and IMHO saying MoveConstructible +is unnecessary, since the by-value signature implies that already, but if it is +needed it should only be on operator(), not the whole class (you could +in theory instantiate std::function<R(noncopyable)> as long as +you don't invoke the call operator.) +

      + +

      +I think defining invocation in terms of INVOKE already implies perfect +forwarding, so we don't need to say explicitly that std::forward should +be used (N.B. the types that are forwarded are those in ArgTypes, which +can differ from the actual parameter types of the target function. The actual +parameter types have gone via type erasure, but that's not a problem - IMHO +forwarding the arguments as ArgTypes is the right thing to do anyway.) +

      + +

      +Is it sufficient to simply replace "lvalues" with "values"? or do we need to say +something like "lvalues when Ti is an lvalue-reference and rvalues +otherwise"? I prefer the former, so I propose the following resolution for 815: +

      + +

      +Edit 20.8.14.2 [func.wrap.func] paragraph 2: +

      + +
      +2 A function object f of type F is Callable for argument +types T1, T2, ..., TN in ArgTypes and a return type +R, if, given lvalues t1, t2, ..., tN of types +T1, T2, ..., TN, respectively, INVOKE (f, t1, t2, ..., tN) is +well formed (20.7.2) and, if R is not void, convertible to +R. +

      + +

      [ +2009-12-12 Daniel adds: +]

      + + +
      +I don't like the reduction to "values" and prefer the alternative solution +suggested using "lvalues when Ti is an lvalue-reference and rvalues otherwise". +The reason why I dislike the shorter version is based on different usages of +"values" as part of defining the semantics of requirement tables via +expressions. E.g. 20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements]/1 says "a, +b, and c are values of type const T;" or similar in +23.2.1 [container.requirements.general]/4 or /14 etc. My current reading +of all these parts is that both rvalues and lvalues are required to be +supported, but this interpretation would violate the intention of the suggested +fix of #815, if I correctly understand Jonathan's rationale. +

      + + +
      +
      +"lvalues when Ti is an lvalue-reference and rvalues otherwise" +
      +

      +doesn't quite work here because the Ti aren't deduced. They are +specified by the function type. Ti might be const +int& (an lvalue reference) and a valid ti might be 2 +(a non-const rvalue). I've taken another stab at the wording using +"expressions" and "bindable to". +

      + +

      +The functor returned by bind() should have a move constructor that +requires only move construction of its contained functor and bound arguments. +That way move-only functors can be passed to objects such as thread. +

      +bind should support move-only functors and bound arguments. +
      + +

      +JP 38: +

      + +
      +

      +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 because 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. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +29.3 [atomics.order] p1 says in the table that +

      + +
      + + + + + + + + +
      ElementMeaning
      memory_order_acq_relthe operation has both acquire and release semantics
      +
      + +

      +To my naked eye, that seems to imply that even an atomic read has both +acquire and release semantics. +

      + +

      +Then, p1 says in the table: +

      + +
      + + + + + + + + +
      ElementMeaning
      memory_order_seq_cstthe operation has both acquire and release semantics, + and, in addition, has sequentially-consistent operation ordering
      +
      + +

      +So that seems to be "the same thing" as memory_order_acq_rel, with additional +constraints. +

      + +

      +I'm then reading p2, where it says: +

      + +
      +The memory_order_seq_cst operations that load a value are acquire operations +on the affected locations. The memory_order_seq_cst operations that store a value +are release operations on the affected locations. +
      + +

      +That seems to imply that atomic reads only have acquire semantics. If that +is intended, does this also apply to memory_order_acq_rel and the individual +load/store operations as well? +

      + +

      +Also, the table in p1 contains phrases with "thus" that seem to indicate +consequences of normative wording in 1.10 [intro.multithread]. That shouldn't be in +normative text, for the fear of redundant or inconsistent specification with +the other normative text. +

      + +

      +Double-check 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] that each +operation clearly says whether it's a load or a store operation, or +both. (It could be clearer, IMO. Solution not in current proposed resolution.) +

      + +

      +29.3 [atomics.order] p2: What's a "consistent execution"? It's not defined in +1.10 [intro.multithread], it's just used in notes there. +

      + +

      +And why does 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] p9 for "load" say: +

      + + +
      +Requires: The order argument shall not be memory_order_acquire +nor memory_order_acq_rel. +
      + +

      +(Since this is exactly the same restriction as for "store", it seems to be a typo.) +

      + +

      +And then: 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] p12: +

      + +
      +These operations are read-modify-write operations in the sense of the +"synchronizes with" definition (1.10 [intro.multithread]), so both such an operation and the +evaluation that produced the input value synchronize with any evaluation +that reads the updated value. +
      + +

      +This is redundant with 1.10 [intro.multithread], see above for the reasoning. +

      + +

      + + +
      +

      +Boehm: "I don't think that this changes anything terribly substantive, +but it improves the text." +

      +

      +The proposed resolution needs more work. Crowl volunteered to address +all of the atomics issues in one paper. +

      + +
      +

      +The enumeration memory_order +specifies the detailed regular (non-atomic) memory synchronization order +as defined in Clause 1.7 section 1.10 +and may provide for operation ordering. +Its enumerated values and their meanings are as follows: +

      +
      +
      +
      For memory_order_relaxed,
      +
      no operation orders memory.
      +
      For memory_order_release, +memory_order_acq_rel, +and memory_order_seq_cst,
      +
      a store operation performs a release operation +on the affected memory location.
      +
      For memory_order_consume,
      +
      a load operation performs a consume operation +on the affected memory location.
      +
      For memory_order_acquire, +memory_order_acq_rel, +and memory_order_seq_cst,
      +
      a load operation performs an acquire operation +on the affected memory location.
      +
      +
      +
      + +

      +remove table 136 in 29.3 [atomics.order]. +

      + +
      + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
      Table 136 — memory_order effects
      ElementMeaning
      memory_order_relaxedthe operation does not order memory
      memory_order_releasethe operation +performs a release operation on the affected memory location, +thus making regular memory writes visible to other threads +through the atomic variable to which it is applied
      memory_order_acquirethe operation +performs an acquire operation on the affected memory location, +thus making regular memory writes in other threads +released through the atomic variable to which it is applied +visible to the current thread
      memory_order_consumethe operation +performs a consume operation on the affected memory location, +thus making regular memory writes in other threads +released through the atomic variable to which it is applied +visible to the regular memory reads +that are dependencies of this consume operation.
      memory_order_acq_relthe operation has both acquire and release semantics
      memory_order_seq_cstthe operation has both acquire and release semantics, +and, in addition, has sequentially-consistent operation ordering
      +
      + +

      +edit 29.3 [atomics.order], paragraph 2 as follows. +

      + +
      +

      +The memory_order_seq_cst operations that load a value +are acquire operations on the affected locations. +The memory_order_seq_cst operations that store a value +are release operations on the affected locations. +In addition, in a consistent execution, +there There must be is +a single total order S +on all memory_order_seq_cst operations, +consistent with the happens before order +and modification orders for all affected locations, +such that each memory_order_seq_cst operation +observes either the last preceding modification +according to this order S, +or the result of an operation that is not memory_order_seq_cst. +[Note: +Although it is not explicitly required that S include locks, +it can always be extended to an order +that does include lock and unlock operations, +since the ordering between those +is already included in the happens before ordering. +—end note] +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Looking at the wording I submitted for rethrow_if_nested, I don't think I +got it quite right. +

      + +

      +The current wording says: +

      + +
      +
      template <class E> void rethrow_if_nested(const E& e);
      +
      +
      +

      +Effects: Calls e.rethrow_nested() only if e +is publicly derived from nested_exception. +

      +
      +
      + +

      +This is trying to be a bit subtle, by requiring e (not E) to be publicly +derived from nested_exception the idea is that a dynamic_cast would be +required to be sure. Unfortunately, if e is dynamically but not statically +derived from nested_exception, e.rethrow_nested() is ill-formed. +

      820. current_exception()'s interaction with throwing copy ctors

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +As of N2521, the Working Paper appears to be silent about what +current_exception() should do if it tries to copy the currently handled +exception and its copy constructor throws. 18.8.5 [propagation]/7 says "If the +function needs to allocate memory and the attempt fails, it returns an +exception_ptr object that refers to an instance of bad_alloc.", but +doesn't say anything about what should happen if memory allocation +succeeds but the actual copying fails. +

      + +

      +I see three alternatives: (1) return an exception_ptr object that refers +to an instance of some fixed exception type, (2) return an exception_ptr +object that refers to an instance of the copy ctor's thrown exception +(but if that has a throwing copy ctor, an infinite loop can occur), or +(3) call terminate(). +

      + +

      +I believe that terminate() is the most reasonable course of action, but +before we go implement that, I wanted to raise this issue. +

      + +

      [ +Peter's summary: +]

      + + +
      +

      +The current practice is to not have throwing copy constructors in +exception classes, because this can lead to terminate() as described in +15.5.1 [except.terminate]. Thus calling terminate() in this situation seems +consistent and does not introduce any new problems. +

      + +

      +However, the resolution of core issue 475 may relax this requirement: +

      + +
      +The CWG agreed with the position that std::uncaught_exception() should +return false during the copy to the exception object and that std::terminate() +should not be called if that constructor exits with an exception. +
      + +

      +Since throwing copy constructors will no longer call terminate(), option +(3) doesn't seem reasonable as it is deemed too drastic a response in a +recoverable situation. +

      + +

      +Option (2) cannot be adopted by itself, because a potential infinite +recursion will need to be terminated by one of the other options. +

      + +
      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add the following paragraph after 18.8.5 [propagation]/7: +

      + +
      +

      +Returns (continued): If the attempt to copy the current exception +object throws an exception, the function returns an exception_ptr that +refers to the thrown exception or, if this is not possible, to an +instance of bad_exception. +

      +

      +[Note: The copy constructor of the thrown exception may also fail, so +the implementation is allowed to substitute a bad_exception to avoid +infinite recursion. -- end note.] +

      +
      + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      [ +San Francisco: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Pete: there may be an implied assumption in the proposed wording that +current_exception() copies the existing exception object; the +implementation may not actually do that. +

      +

      +Pete will make the required editorial tweaks to rectify this. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Reading resolution of LWG issue 673 I noticed the following: +

      +
      void reset(T* pointer p = 0 pointer());
      +
      + +

      +-1- Requires: Does not accept pointer types which are convertible +to T* pointer (diagnostic +required). [Note: One implementation technique is to create a private +templated overload. -- end note] +

      +
      + +

      +This could be cleaned up by mandating the overload as a public deleted +function. In addition, we should probably overload reset on nullptr_t +to be a stronger match than the deleted overload. Words... +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      Discussion:

      +

      +N2588 seems to have added an operator() member function to the +identity<> helper in 20.3.3 [forward]. I believe this change makes it no +longer possible to instantiate identity<void>, as it would require +forming a reference-to-void type as this operator()'s parameter type. +

      + +

      +Suggested resolution: Specialize identity<void> so as not to require +the member function's presence. +

      + +

      + + +
      +

      [ +2009-07-30 Daniel reopens: +]

      + + +
      +

      +This issue became closed, because the ReferentType requirement +fixed the problem - this is no longer the case. In retrospective it seems +to be that the root of current issues around std::identity (823, 700, +939) +is that it was standardized as something very different (an unconditional +type mapper) than traditional usage indicated (a function object that should +derive from std::unary_function), as the SGI definition does. This issue could +be solved, if std::identity is removed (one proposal of 939), but until this +has been decided, this issue should remain open. An alternative for +removing it, would be, to do the following: +

      + +
        +
      1. +

        +Let identity stay as a real function object, which would +now properly +derive from unary_function: +

        + +
        template <class T> struct identity : unary_function<T, T> {
        +  const T& operator()(const T&) const;
        +};
        +
        +
      2. + +
      3. +

        +Invent (if needed) a generic type wrapper (corresponding to concept +IdentityOf), +e.g. identity_of, and move it's prototype description back to 20.3.3 [forward]: +

        + +
        template <class T> struct identity_of {
        +  typedef T type;
        +};
        +
        + +

        +and adapt the std::forward signature to use identity_of +instead of identity. +

      +Mark as NAD EditorialResolved, fixed by 939. +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change definition of identity in 20.3.3 [forward], paragraph 2, to: +

      + +
      template <class T>  struct identity {
      +    typedef T type;
      +
      +    requires ReferentType<T>

      +
        requires ReferentType<T>
      +    const T& operator()(const T& x) const;
      +
      + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      +The point here is to able to write T& given T and ReferentType is +precisely the concept that guarantees so, according to N2677 +(Foundational concepts). Because of this, it seems preferable than an +explicit check for cv void using SameType/remove_cv as it was suggested +in Sophia. In particular, Daniel remarked that there may be types other +than cv void which aren't referent types (int[], perhaps?). +

      Discussion:

      +

      +In the current working paper, the <string> header synopsis at the end of +21.3 [string.classes] lists a single operator<< overload +for basic_string. +

      + +
      template<class charT, class traits, class Allocator>
      + basic_ostream<charT, traits>&
      +   operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>&& os,
      +              const basic_string<charT,traits,Allocator>& str);
      +
      + +

      +The definition in 21.4.8.9 [string.io] lists two: +

      + +
      template<class charT, class traits, class Allocator>
      + basic_ostream<charT, traits>&
      +   operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os,

      Discussion:

      +

      +Would anyone object to making the default constructor of shared_ptr (and +weak_ptr and enable_shared_from_this) constexpr? This would enable +static initialization for shared_ptr variables, eliminating another +unfair advantage of raw pointers. +

      + +

      [ +San Francisco: +]

      + + +
      +

      +It's not clear to us that you can initialize a pointer with the literal +0 in a constant expression. We need to ask CWG to make sure this works. +Bjarne has been appointed to do this. +

      +

      +Core got back to us and assured as that nullptr would do the job +nicely here. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-01 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +I don't believe that constexpr will buy anything in this case. +shared_ptr/weak_ptr/enable_shared_from_this cannot be literal types as they +have a non-trivial copy constructor. As they do not produce literal types, +then the constexpr default constructor will not guarantee constant +initialization, and so not buy the hoped for optimization. +

      +

      +I recommend referring this back to Core to see if we can get static +initialization for types with constexpr constructors, even if they are not +literal types. Otherwise this should be closed as NAD. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-26 Daniel adds: +]

      + + +
      +If Alisdair's 2009-05-01 comment is correct, wouldn't that also make +constexpr mutex() useless, because this class has a non-trivial +destructor? (828) +
      + +

      [ +2009-07-21 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +The feedback from core is that this and similar uses of constexpr +constructors to force static initialization should be supported. If +there are any problems with this in the working draught, we should file +core issues. +

      + +

      +Recommend we declare the default constructor constexpr as the issue suggests +(proposed wording added). +

      Discussion:

      +

      Consider this code:

      + +
      +
      exception_ptr xp;
      +
      try {do_something(); }
      +
      +catch (const runtime_error& ) {xp = current_exception();}
      +
      +...
      +
      +rethrow_exception(xp);
      +
      + +

      +Say do_something() throws an exception object of type +range_error. What is the type of the exception object thrown by +rethrow_exception(xp) above? It must have a type of range_error; +if it were of type runtime_error it still isn't possible to +propagate an exception and the exception_ptr/current_exception/rethrow_exception +machinery serves no useful purpose. +

      + +

      +Unfortunately, the current wording does not explicitly say that. Different +people read the current wording and come to different conclusions. While it may +be possible to deduce the correct type from the current wording, it would be +much clearer to come right out and explicitly say what the type of the referred +to exception is. +

      + +

      [ +Peter adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +I don't like the proposed resolution of 829. The normative text is +unambiguous that the exception_ptr refers to the currently handled +exception. This term has a standard meaning, see 15.3 [except.handle]/8; this is the +exception that throw; would rethrow, see 15.1 [except.throw]/7. +

      +

      +A better way to address this is to simply add the non-normative example +in question as a clarification. The term currently handled exception +should be italicized and cross-referenced. A [Note: the currently +handled exception is the exception that a throw expression without an +operand (15.1 [except.throw]/7) would rethrow. --end note] is also an option. +

      +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      +After 18.8.5 [propagation] , paragraph 7, add the indicated text: +

      + +
      +
      exception_ptr current_exception();
      + +
      +

      +Returns: exception_ptr object that refers +to the currently handled exception (15.3 [except.handle]) or a copy of the currently handled +exception, or a null exception_ptr object if no exception is being handled. If +the function needs to allocate memory and the attempt fails, it returns an +exception_ptr object that refers to an instance of bad_alloc. +It is unspecified whether the return values of two successive calls to +current_exception refer to the same exception object. +[Note: that is, it +is unspecified whether current_exception +creates a new copy each time it is called. +-- end note] +

      +Throws: nothing. +

      834. Unique_ptr::pointer requirements underspecified

      Discussion:

      +

      +Issue 673 (including recent updates by 821) proposes a useful +extension point for unique_ptr by granting support for an optional +deleter_type::pointer to act as pointer-like replacement for element_type* +(In the following: pointer). +

      +

      +Unfortunately no requirements are specified for the type pointer which has +impact on at least two key features of unique_ptr: +

      + +
        +
      1. Operational fail-safety.
      2. +
      3. (Well-)Definedness of expressions.
      4. +
      + +

      +Unique_ptr specification makes great efforts to require that essentially *all* +operations cannot throw and therefore adds proper wording to the affected +operations of the deleter as well. If user-provided pointer-emulating types +("smart pointers") will be allowed, either *all* throw-nothing clauses have to +be replaced by weaker "An exception is thrown only if pointer's {op} throws +an exception"-clauses or it has to be said explicitly that all used +operations of +pointer are required *not* to throw. I understand the main focus of unique_ptr +to be as near as possible to the advantages of native pointers which cannot +fail and thus strongly favor the second choice. Also, the alternative position +would make it much harder to write safe and simple template code for +unique_ptr. Additionally, I assume that a general statement need to be given +that all of the expressions of pointer used to define semantics are required to +be well-formed and well-defined (also as back-end for 762). +

      +I hate to pull an issue out of Ready status, but I don't think 834 is +fully baked yet. +

      + +

      +For reference the proposed resolution is to add the following words: +

      + +
      +unique_ptr<T, D>::pointer's operations shall be +well-formed, shall have well defined behavior, and shall not throw +exceptions. +
      + +

      +This leaves me with a big question : which operations? +

      + +

      +Are all pointer operations required to be nothrow, including operations +that have nothing to do with interactions with unique_ptr? This was +much simpler with concepts where we could point to operations within a +certain concept, and so nail down the interactions. +

      [ +2009-12-22 Daniel provided wording and rationale. +]

      + + +

      [ +2010 Pittsburgh: Moved to NAD Editorial. Rationale added below. +]

      + + + + +

      Rationale:

      +

      +The here proposed resolution has considerable overlap with the requirements that +are used in the allocator requirements. +

      + +

      +This might be a convincing argument to isolate the common subset into one +requirement. The reason I did not do that is basically because we might find out +that they are either over-constraining or under-constraining at this late point +of specification. Note also that as a result of the idea of a general +requirement set I added the requirement +

      + +
      +A default-initialized object may have a singular value +
      + +

      +even though this does not play a relevant role for unique_ptr. +

      + +

      +One further characteristics of the resolution is that availability of relational +operators of unique_ptr<T, D>::pointer is not part of the basic +requirements, which is in sync with the allocator requirements on pointer-like +(this means that unique_ptr can hold a void_pointer or +const_void_pointer). +

      + +

      +Solved by +N3073. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +
        + +
      1. +

        +Change 20.9.9.2 [unique.ptr.single]/1 as indicated: [The intent is to +replace the coupling between T* and the deleter's operator() +by a coupling between unique_ptr<T, D>::pointer and this +operator()] +

        + +
        +1 - The default type for the template parameter D is +default_delete. A client-supplied template argument D shall be +a function pointer or functor for which, given a value d of type +D and a pointer value ptr of type +T* unique_ptr<T, D>::pointer, the +expression d(ptr) is valid and has the effect of deallocating the +pointer as appropriate for that deleter. D may also be an +lvalue-reference to a deleter. +
        +
      2. + +
      3. +

        +Change 20.9.9.2 [unique.ptr.single]/3 as indicated: +

        + +
        +

        +3 - If the type remove_reference<D>::type::pointer exists, then +unique_ptr<T, D>::pointer shall be a synonym for +remove_reference<D>::type::pointer. Otherwise +unique_ptr<T, D>::pointer shall be a synonym for T*. The +type unique_ptr<T, D>::pointer shall be satisfy +the requirements of EqualityComparable, +DefaultConstructible, CopyConstructible (Table 34) +and, CopyAssignable (Table 36), +Swappable, and Destructible (20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements]). A default-initialized object may have a +singular value. A value-initialized object produces the null value of the type. +The null value shall be equivalent only to itself. An object of this type can be +copy-initialized with a value of type nullptr_t, compared for equality +with a value of type nullptr_t, and assigned a value of type +nullptr_t. The effect shall be as if a value-initialized object had +been used in place of the null pointer constant. An object p of this +type can be contextually converted to bool. The effect shall be as if +p != nullptr had been evaluated in place of p. No operation on +this type which is part of the above mentioned requirements shall exit via an +exception. + +

        +

        +[Note: Given an allocator type X (20.2.5 [allocator.requirements]), the types X::pointer, +X::const_pointer, X::void_pointer, and +X::const_void_pointer may be used as unique_ptr<T, +D>::pointer — end note] +

        + +

        +In addition to being available via inclusion of the <utility> +header, the swap function template in 20.3.2 [utility.swap] is +also available within the definition of unique_ptr's swap +function. +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +The fix for +issue 581, +now integrated into the working paper, overlooks a couple of minor +problems. + +

      +

      + +First, being an unformatted function once again, flush() +is required to create a sentry object whose constructor must, among +other things, flush the tied stream. When two streams are tied +together, either directly or through another intermediate stream +object, flushing one will also cause a call to flush() on +the other tied stream(s) and vice versa, ad infinitum. The program +below demonstrates the problem. + +

      +

      + +Second, as Bo Persson notes in his +comp.lang.c++.moderated post, +for streams with the unitbuf flag set such +as std::stderr, the destructor of the sentry object will +again call flush(). This seems to create an infinite +recursion for std::cerr << std::flush; + +

      +
      +
      #include <iostream>
      +
      +int main ()
      +{
      +   std::cout.tie (&std::cerr);
      +   std::cerr.tie (&std::cout);
      +   std::cout << "cout\n";
      +   std::cerr << "cerr\n";
      +}

      + + +
      +

      +I think that the most recently suggested change in +27.7.2.4 [ostream::sentry] need some further word-smithing. As +written, it would make the behavior undefined, if under +conditions when pubsync() should be called, but when +in this scenario os.rdbuf() returns 0. +

      +

      +This case is explicitly handled in flush() and needs to be +taken care of. My suggested fix is: +

      + +
      +If ((os.flags() & ios_base::unitbuf) && !uncaught_exception() +&& os.rdbuf() != 0) is true, calls os.flush() +os.rdbuf()->pubsync(). +
      + +

      +Two secondary questions are: +

      + +
        +
      1. +Should pubsync() be invoked in any case or shouldn't a +base requirement for this trial be that os.good() == true +as required in the original flush() case? +
      2. +
      3. +Since uncaught_exception() is explicitly tested, shouldn't +a return value of -1 of pubsync() produce setstate(badbit) +(which may throw ios_base::failure)? +

      Discussion:

      +

      + +From message c++std-lib-20003... + +

      +

      + +The description of istream_iterator in +24.6.1 [istream.iterator], p1 specifies that objects of the +class become the end-of-stream (EOS) iterators under the +following condition (see also issue 788 another problem +with this paragraph): + +

      +
      + +If the end of stream is reached (operator void*() on the +stream returns false), the iterator becomes equal to +the end-of-stream iterator value. + +
      +

      + +One possible implementation approach that has been used in practice is +for the iterator to set its in_stream pointer to 0 when +it reaches the end of the stream, just like the default ctor does on +initialization. The problem with this approach is that +the Effects clause for operator++() says the +iterator unconditionally extracts the next value from the stream by +evaluating *in_stream >> value, without checking +for (in_stream == 0). + +

      +

      + +Conformance to the requirement outlined in the Effects clause +can easily be verified in programs by setting eofbit +or failbit in exceptions() of the associated +stream and attempting to iterate past the end of the stream: each +past-the-end access should trigger an exception. This suggests that +some other, more elaborate technique might be intended. + +

      +

      + +Another approach, one that allows operator++() to attempt +to extract the value even for EOS iterators (just as long +as in_stream is non-0) is for the iterator to maintain a +flag indicating whether it has reached the end of the stream. This +technique would satisfy the presumed requirement implied by +the Effects clause mentioned above, but it isn't supported by +the exposition-only members of the class (no such flag is shown). This +approach is also found in existing practice. + +

      +

      + +The inconsistency between existing implementations raises the question +of whether the intent of the specification is that a non-EOS iterator +that has reached the EOS become a non-EOS one again after the +stream's eofbit flag has been cleared? That is, are the +assertions in the program below expected to pass? + +

      +
      +
         sstream strm ("1 ");
      +   istream_iterator eos;
      +   istream_iterator it (strm);
      +   int i;
      +   i = *it++
      +   assert (it == eos);
      +   strm.clear ();
      +   strm << "2 3 ";
      +   assert (it != eos);
      +   i = *++it;
      +   assert (3 == i);
      +     
      +
      +

      + +Or is it intended that once an iterator becomes EOS it stays EOS until +the end of its lifetime? + +

      + +

      [ +San Francisco: +]

      + + +
      +

      +We like the direction of the proposed resolution. We're not sure about +the wording, and we need more time to reflect on it, +

      +

      +Move to Open. Detlef to rewrite the proposed resolution in such a way +that no reference is made to exposition only members of +istream_iterator. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-07 Frankfurt: +]

      + + +
      +Move to Ready. +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      + +The discussion of this issue on the reflector suggests that the intent +of the standard is for an istreambuf_iterator that has +reached the EOS to remain in the EOS state until the end of its +lifetime. Implementations that permit EOS iterators to return to a +non-EOS state may only do so as an extension, and only as a result of +calling istream_iterator member functions on EOS +iterators whose behavior is in this case undefined. + +

      +

      + +To this end we propose to change 24.6.1 [istream.iterator], p1, +as follows: + +

      +
      + +The result of operator-> on an end-of-stream +is not defined. For any other iterator value a const T* +is returned. Invoking operator++() on +an end-of-stream iterator is undefined. It is impossible +to store things into istream iterators... + +
      +

      + +Add pre/postconditions to the member function descriptions of istream_iterator like so: + +

      +
      + +
      istream_iterator();
      + +Effects: Constructs the end-of-stream iterator.
      +Postcondition: in_stream == 0. + +
      istream_iterator(istream_type &s);
      + +Effects: Initializes in_stream with &s. value +may be initialized during construction or the first time it is +referenced.
      +Postcondition: in_stream == &s. + +
      istream_iterator(const istream_iterator &x);
      + +Effects: Constructs a copy of x.
      +Postcondition: in_stream == x.in_stream. + +
      istream_iterator& operator++();
      + +Requires: in_stream != 0.
      +Effects: *in_stream >> value. + +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The std::reference_closure type has a deleted copy assignment operator +under the theory that references cannot be assigned, and hence the +assignment of its reference member must necessarily be ill-formed. +

      +

      +However, other types, notably std::reference_wrapper and std::function +provide for the "copying of references", and thus the current definition +of std::reference_closure seems unnecessarily restrictive. In particular, +it should be possible to write generic functions using both std::function +and std::reference_closure, but this generality is much harder when +one such type does not support assignment. +

      +

      +The definition of reference_closure does not necessarily imply direct +implementation via reference types. Indeed, the reference_closure is +best implemented via a frame pointer, for which there is no standard +type. +

      +

      +The semantics of assignment are effectively obtained by use of the +default destructor and default copy assignment operator via +

      + +
      x.~reference_closure(); new (x) reference_closure(y);
      +
      + +

      +So the copy assignment operator generates no significant real burden +to the implementation. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +In [func.referenceclosure] Class template reference_closure, +replace the =delete in the copy assignment operator in the synopsis +with =default. +

      + +
      template<class R , class... ArgTypes > 
      +  class reference_closure<R (ArgTypes...)> { 
      +  public:
      +     ...
      +     reference_closure& operator=(const reference_closure&) = delete default;
      +     ...
      +
      + +

      +In X [func.referenceclosure.cons] Construct, copy, destroy, +add the member function description +

      + +
      +
      reference_closure& operator=(const reference_closure& f)
      +
      +
      +

      +Postcondition: *this is a copy of f. +

      +

      +Returns: *this. +

      +The current working draft is in an inconsistent state. +

      + +

      +26.4.8 [complex.transcendentals] says that: +

      + +
      +pow(complex<float>(), int()) returns a complex<float>. +
      + +

      +26.4.9 [cmplx.over] says that: +

      +pow(complex<float>(), int()) returns a complex<double>. +
      + +

      [ +Sophia Antipolis: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Since int promotes to double, and C99 doesn't have an int-based +overload for pow, the C99 result is complex<double>, see also C99 +7.22, see also library issue 550. +

      847. string exception safety guarantees

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +In March, on comp.lang.c++.moderated, I asked what were the +string exception safety guarantees are, because I cannot see +*any* in the working paper, and any implementation I know offers +the strong exception safety guarantee (string unchanged if a +member throws exception). The closest the current draft comes to +offering any guarantees is 21.4 [basic.string], para 3: +

      + +
      +The class template basic_string conforms to the requirements +for a Sequence Container (23.1.1), for a Reversible Container (23.1), +and for an Allocator-aware container (91). The iterators supported by +basic_string are random access iterators (24.1.5). +
      + +

      +However, the chapter 23 only says, on the topic of exceptions: 23.2 [container.requirements], +para 10: +

      + +
      +

      +Unless otherwise specified (see 23.2.2.3 and 23.2.6.4) all container types defined in this clause meet the following +additional requirements: +

      + +
        +
      • if an exception is thrown by...
      • +
      +
      + +

      +I take it as saying that this paragraph has *no* implication on +std::basic_string, as basic_string isn't defined in Clause 23 and +this paragraph does not define a *requirement* of Sequence +nor Reversible Container, just of the models defined in Clause 23. +In addition, LWG Issue 718 proposes to remove 23.2 [container.requirements], para 3. +

      + +

      +Finally, the fact that no operation on Traits should throw +exceptions has no bearing, except to suggest (since the only +other throws should be allocation, out_of_range, or length_error) +that the strong exception guarantee can be achieved. +

      + +

      +The reaction in that group by Niels Dekker, Martin Sebor, and +Bo Persson, was all that this would be worth an LWG issue. +

      + +

      +A related issue is that erase() does not throw. This should be +stated somewhere (and again, I don't think that the 23.2 [container.requirements], para 1 +applies here). +

      + +

      +

      +- no erase() or pop_back() function throws. +

      +
      + +

      +As far as I can tell, this is achieved by any implementation. If I made a +mistake and it is not possible to offer this guarantee, then +either state all the functions for which this is possible +(certainly at least operator+=, append, assign, and insert), +or add paragraphs to Effects clauses wherever appropriate. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +In the current working draft, std::hash<T> is specialized for builtin +types and a few other types. Bitsets seems like one that is missing from +the list, not because it cannot not be done by the user, but because it +is hard or impossible to write an efficient implementation that works on +32bit/64bit chunks at a time. For example, std::bitset is too much +encapsulated in this respect. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Add the following to the synopsis in 20.8 [function.objects]/2: +

      + +
      template<class Allocator> struct hash<std::vector<bool,Allocator>>;

      Discussion:

      +

      +Issue 755 added a shrink_to_fit function to std::vector and std::string. +It did not yet deal with std::deque, because of the fundamental +difference between std::deque and the other two container types. The +need for std::deque may seem less evident, because one might think that +for this container, the overhead is a small map, and some number of +blocks that's bounded by a small constant. +

      +

      +The container overhead can in fact be arbitrarily large (i.e. is not +necessarily O(N) where N is the number of elements currently held by the +deque). As Bill Plauger noted in a reflector message, unless the map of +block pointers is shrunk, it must hold at least maxN/B pointers where +maxN is the maximum of N over the lifetime of the deque since its +creation. This is independent of how the map is implemented +(vector-like circular buffer and all), and maxN bears no relation to N, +the number of elements it currently holds. +

      +

      +Hervé Brönnimann reports a situation where a deque of requests grew very +large due to some temporary backup (the front request hanging), and the +map of the deque grew quite large before getting back to normal. Just +to put some color on it, assuming a deque with 1K pointer elements in +steady regime, that held, at some point in its lifetime, maxN=10M +pointers, with one block holding 128 elements, the spine must be at +least (maxN / 128), in that case 100K. In that case, shrink-to-fit +would allow to reuse about 100K which would otherwise never be reclaimed +in the lifetime of the deque. +

      +

      +An added bonus would be that it *allows* implementations to hang on to +empty blocks at the end (but does not care if they do or not). A +shrink_to_fit would take care of both shrinks, and guarantee that at +most O(B) space is used in addition to the storage to hold the N +elements and the N/B block pointers. +

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +To Class template deque 23.3.2 [deque] synopsis, add: +

      +
      void shrink_to_fit();
      +

      +To deque capacity 23.3.2.2 [deque.capacity], add: +

      +
      void shrink_to_fit();
      +
      + +
      +Remarks: shrink_to_fit is a non-binding request to reduce memory +use. [Note: The request is non-binding to allow latitude for +implementation-specific optimizations. -- end note] +

      +I believe we need to be careful to not outlaw the following use case, and +I believe the current proposed wording +(requires Convertible<U*, T*> && HasVirtualDestructor<T>) does so: +

      #include <memory>

      +

      +The meaning of the bool returned by condition_variable::timed_wait is so +obscure that even the class' designer can't deduce it correctly. Several +people have independently stumbled on this issue. +

      +

      +It might be simpler to change the return type to a scoped enum: +

      +
      enum class timeout { not_reached, reached };
      +
      + +

      +That's the same cost as returning a bool, but not subject to mistakes. Your example below would be: +

      + +
      if (cv.wait_until(lk, time_limit) == timeout::reached )
      +  throw time_out();

      Discussion:

      +

      +The first sentence of the Effects clause for undeclare_reachable seems +to be missing some words. I can't parse +

      +
      +... for all non-null p referencing the argument is no longer declared reachable... +
      +

      +I take it the intent is that undeclare_reachable should be called only +when there has been a corresponding call to declare_reachable. In +particular, although the wording seems to allow it, I assume that code +shouldn't call declare_reachable once then call undeclare_reachable +twice. +

      +

      +I don't know what "shall be live" in the Requires clause means. +

      +

      +In the final Note for undeclare_reachable, what does "cannot be +deallocated" mean? Is this different from "will not be able to collect"? +

      + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +In 20.9.11 [util.dynamic.safety] +(N2670, +Minimal Support for Garbage Collection) +

      +

      +Add at the beginning, before paragraph 39 +

      + +
      +A complete object is declared reachable while the number of calls +to declare_reachable with an argument referencing the object exceeds the +number of undeclare_reachable calls with pointers to the same complete +object. +
      + +

      +Change paragraph 42 (Requires clause for undeclare_reachable) +

      + +
      +If p is not null, declare_reachable(p) was previously called +the complete object referenced by p shall have +been previously declared reachable, and shall +be live (3.8 [basic.life]) from the time of the call until the last undeclare_reachable(p) +call on the object. +
      + +

      +Change the first sentence in paragraph 44 (Effects clause for +undeclare_reachable): +

      + +
      +Effects: +Once the number of calls to +undeclare_reachable(p) equals the number of calls to +declare_reachable(p) +for all non-null p referencing +the argument is no longer declared reachable. When this happens, +pointers to the object referenced by p may not be subsequently +dereferenced. + +After a call to undeclare_reachable(p), if p is not null and the object q +referenced by p is no longer declared reachable, then +dereferencing any pointer to q that is not safely derived +results in undefined behavior. + ... +
      + +

      +Change the final note: +

      +

      +[Note: It is expected that calls to declare_reachable(p) +will consume a small amount of memory, in addition to that occupied +by the referenced object, until the matching call to +undeclare_reachable(p) is encountered. In addition, the +referenced object cannot be deallocated during this period, and garbage +collecting implementations will not be able to collect the object while +it is declared reachable. Long running programs should arrange +that calls for short-lived objects are matched. --end +note] +

      859. Monotonic Clock is Conditionally Supported?

      Discussion:

      + +

      Related to 958, 959.

      + +

      +N2661 +says that there is a class named monotonic_clock. It also says that this +name may be a synonym for system_clock, and that it's conditionally +supported. So the actual requirement is that it can be monotonic or not, +and you can tell by looking at is_monotonic, or it might not exist at +all (since it's conditionally supported). Okay, maybe too much +flexibility, but so be it. +

      +

      +A problem comes up in the threading specification, where several +variants of wait_for explicitly use monotonic_clock::now(). What is the +meaning of an effects clause that says +

      + +
      wait_until(lock, chrono::monotonic_clock::now() + rel_time)
      +
      + +

      +when monotonic_clock is not required to exist? +

      + +

      [ +San Francisco: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Nick: maybe instead of saying that chrono::monotonic_clock is +conditionally supported, we could say that it's always there, but not +necessarily supported.. +

      +

      +Beman: I'd prefer a typedef that identifies the best clock to use for +wait_for locks. +

      +

      +Tom: combine the two concepts; create a duration clock type, but keep +the is_monotonic test. +

      +

      +Howard: if we create a duration_clock type, is it a typedef or an +entirely true type? +

      +

      +There was broad preference for a typedef. +

      +

      +Move to Open. Howard to provide wording to add a typedef for +duration_clock and to replace all uses of monotonic_clock in function +calls and signatures with duration_clock. +

      +
      + +

      [ +Howard notes post-San Francisco: +]

      + + +
      +

      +After further thought I do not believe that creating a duration_clock typedef +is the best way to proceed. An implementation may not need to use a +time_point to implement the wait_for functions. +

      + +

      +For example, on POSIX systems sleep_for can be implemented in terms of +nanosleep which takes only a duration in terms of nanoseconds. The current +working paper does not describe sleep_for in terms of sleep_until. +And paragraph 2 of 30.2.4 [thread.req.timing] has the words strongly encouraging +implementations to use monotonic clocks for sleep_for: +

      + +
      +2 The member functions whose names end in _for take an argument that +specifies a relative time. Implementations should use a monotonic clock to +measure time for these functions. +
      + +

      +I believe the approach taken in describing the effects of sleep_for +and try_lock_for is also appropriate for wait_for. I.e. these +are not described in terms of their _until variants. +

      + +
      + +

      [ +2009-07 Frankfurt: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Beman will send some suggested wording changes to Howard. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +There are a number of functions that affect the floating point state. +These function need to be thread-safe, but I'm unsure of the right +approach in the standard, as we inherit them from C. +

      + +

      [ +San Francisco: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Nick: I think we already say that these functions do not introduce data +races; see 17.6.5.6/20 +

      +

      +Pete: there's more to it than not introducing data races; are these +states maintained per thread? +

      +

      +Howard: 21.5/14 says that strtok and strerror are not required to avoid +data races, and 20.9/2 says the same about asctime, gmtime, ctime, and +gmtime. +

      +

      +Nick: POSIX has a list of not-safe functions. All other functions are +implicitly thread safe. +

      +

      +Lawrence is to form a group between meetings to attack this issue. Nick +and Tom volunteered to work with Lawrence. +

      +

      +Move to Open. +

      +
      + +

      [ +Post Summit: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Hans: Sane oses seem ok. Sensible thing is implementable and makes sense. +

      +

      +Nick: Default wording seems to cover this? Hole in POSIX, these +functions need to be added to list of thread-unsafe functions. +

      +

      +Lawrence: Not sufficient, not "thread-safe" per our definition, but +think of state as a thread-local variable. Need something like "these +functions only affect state in the current thread." +

      +

      +Hans: Suggest the following wording: "The floating point environment is +maintained per-thread." +

      +

      +Walter: Any other examples of state being thread safe that are not +already covered elsewhere? +

      +

      +Have thread unsafe functions paper which needs to be updated. Should +just fold in 26.3 [cfenv] functions. +

      +

      +Recommend Open. Lawrence instead suggests leaving it open until we have +suitable wording that may or may not include the thread local +commentary. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-09-23 Hans provided wording. +]

      + + +
      +If I understand the history correctly, Nick, as the Posix liaison, +should probably get a veto on this, since I think it came from Posix (?) +via WG14 and should probably really be addressed there (?). But I think +we are basically in agreement that there is no other sane way to do +this, and hence we don't have to worry too much about stepping on toes. +As far as I can tell, this same issue also exists in the latest Posix +standard (?). +

      +Add at the end of 26.3.1 [cfenv.syn]: +

      + +
      +

      +2 The header defines all functions, types, and macros the same as C99 7.6. +

      + +

      +A separate floating point environment shall be maintained for each +thread. Each function accesses the environment corresponding to its +calling thread. +

      861. Incomplete specification of EqualityComparable for std::forward_list

      +

      Section: 23.2 [container.requirements] Status: WP + Submitter: Daniel Krügler Opened: 2008-06-24 Last modified: 2010-10-29

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +Table 89, Container requirements, defines operator== in terms of the container +member function size() and the algorithm std::equal: +

      + +
      +== is an equivalence relation. a.size() == b.size() && +equal(a.begin(), a.end(), b.begin() +
      + +

      +The new container forward_list does not provide a size member function +by design but does provide operator== and operator!= without specifying it's semantic. +

      +

      +Other parts of the (sequence) container requirements do also depend on +size(), e.g. empty() +or clear(), but this issue explicitly attempts to solve the missing +EqualityComparable specification, +because of the special design choices of forward_list. +

      +

      +I propose to apply one of the following resolutions, which are described as: +

      + +
        +
      1. +Provide a definition, which is optimal for this special container without +previous size test. This choice prevents two O(N) calls of std::distance() +with the corresponding container ranges and instead uses a special +equals implementation which takes two container ranges instead of 1 1/2. +
      2. +
      3. +The simple fix where the usual test is adapted such that size() is replaced +by distance with corresponding performance disadvantages. +
      4. +
      +

      +Both proposal choices are discussed, the preferred choice of the author is +to apply (A). +

      + +

      [ +San Francisco: +]

      + + +
      +

      +There's an Option C: change the requirements table to use distance(). +

      Discussion:

      +

      +In regard to library defect 488 I found some more algorithms which +unnecessarily throw away information. These are typically algorithms, +which sequentially write into an OutputIterator, but do not return the +final value of this output iterator. These cases are: +

      + +
        +
      1. +
        template<class OutputIterator, class Size, class T>
        +void fill_n(OutputIterator first, Size n, const T& value);
      2. + +
      3. +
        template<class OutputIterator, class Size, class Generator>
        +void generate_n(OutputIterator first, Size n, Generator gen);
      4. +
      +

      +In both cases the minimum requirements on the iterator are +OutputIterator, which means according to the requirements of +24.2.4 [output.iterators]/2 that only single-pass iterations are guaranteed. +So, if users of fill_n and generate_n have *only* an OutputIterator +available, they have no chance to continue pushing further values +into it, which seems to be a severe limitation to me. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +LWG issue 402 replaced "new" with "::new" in the placement +new-expression in 20.9.5.1 [allocator.members]. I believe the rationale +given in 402 applies also to the following other contexts: +

      +
        +
      • +

        +in 20.9.8 [specialized.algorithms], all four algorithms unitialized_copy, +unitialized_copy_n, unitialized_fill and unitialized_fill_n use +the unqualified placement new-expression in some variation of the form: +

        +
        new  (static_cast<void*>(&*result)) typename  iterator_traits<ForwardIterator>::value_type(*first);
        +
        +
      • +
      • +

        +in 20.9.10.2.6 [util.smartptr.shared.create] there is a reference to the unqualified placement new-expression: +

        +
        new  (pv)  T(std::forward<Args>(args)...),
        +
        +
      • +
      +

      +I suggest to add qualification in all those places. As far as I know, +these are all the remaining places in the whole library that explicitly +use a placement new-expression. Should other uses come out, they should +be qualified as well. +

      +

      +As an aside, a qualified placement new-expression does not need +additional requirements to be compiled in a constrained context. By +adding qualification, the HasPlacementNew concept introduced recently in +N2677 (Foundational Concepts) +would no longer be needed by library and +should therefore be removed. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The term "default constructed" is often used in wording that predates +the introduction of the concept of value-initialization. In a few such +places the concept of value-initialization is more correct than the +current wording (for example when the type involved can be a built-in) +so a replacement is in order. Two of such places are already covered by +issue 867. This issue deliberately addresses the hopefully +non-controversial changes in the attempt of being approved more quickly. +A few other occurrences (for example in std::tuple, +std::reverse_iterator and std::move_iterator) are left to separate +issues. For std::reverse_iterator, see also issue 408. This issue is +related with issue 724. +

      +The list provided in the proposed resolution is not complete. James +Dennett will review the library and provide a complete list and will +double-check the vocabulary. +

      + + +
      +

      +I have no objections against the currently suggested changes, but I +also cross-checked +with the list regarding intentionally excluded changes, and from this +I miss the discussion +of +

      + +
        +
      1. +

        +21.4.1 [string.require]/2: +

        + +
        +"[..] The Allocator object used shall be a copy of the Allocator> +object passed to the basic_string object's +constructor or, if the constructor does not take an Allocator +argument, a copy of a default-constructed +Allocator object." +

        +
        +Pre-/post-condition: "Creates an engine with the same initial state as +all other default-constructed engines of type X." +
        + +

        +as well as in 26.5.5 [rand.predef]/1-9 (N2914), 26.5.7.1 [rand.util.seedseq]/3, 27.7.1.1.1 [istream.cons]/3, 27.7.2.2 [ostream.cons]/9 (N2914), 28.13 [re.grammar]/2, 30.3.1.4 [thread.thread.assign]/1 (N2914), +

        +

        [ +Candidates for the "the expression "default constructed" need not be +changed" list +]

        + + +

        +I'm fine, if these would be added to the intentionally exclusion list, +but mentioning them makes it +easier for other potential reviewers to decide on the relevance or +not-relevance of them for this issue. +

        +
      4. + +
      5. +

        +I suggest to remove the reference of [func.referenceclosure.invoke] +in the "it's not clear" list, because +this component does no longer exist. +

        +
      6. + +
      7. +

        +I also suggest to add a short comment that all paragraphs in the +resolution whether they refer to N2723 or to N2914 numbering, because e.g. "Change 23.3.2.1 [deque.cons] para 5" is an N2723 coordinate, while "Change 23.3.2.2 [deque.capacity] para 1" is an N2914 coordinate. Even better would be to use one default document +for the numbering (probably N2914) and mention special cases (e.g. "Change 20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements] para 2" as referring to N2723 numbering). +

        +

      + +

      [ +2009-08-18 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +I strongly believe the term "default constructed" should not appear in +the library clauses unless we very clearly define a meaning for it, and +I am not sure what that would be. +

      + +

      +In those cases where we do not want to replace "default constructed" +with "vale initialized" we should be using "default initialized". If we +have a term that could mean either, we reduce portability of programs. +

      + +

      +I have not done an exhaustive review to clarify if that is a vendor +freedom we have reason to support (e.g. value-init in debug, +default-init in release) so I may yet be convinced that LWG has reason +to define this new term of art, but generally C++ initialization is +confusing enough without supporting further ill-defined terms. +

      +Good ol' associative containers allow both function pointers and +function objects as feasible +comparators, as described in 23.2.4 [associative.reqmts]/2: +

      + +
      +Each associative container is parameterized on Key and an ordering +relation Compare that +induces a strict weak ordering (25.3) on elements of Key. [..]. The +object of type Compare is +called the comparison object of a container. This comparison object +may be a pointer to +function or an object of a type with an appropriate function call operator.[..] +
      + +

      +The corresponding wording for unordered containers is not so clear, +but I read it to disallow +function pointers for the hasher and I miss a clear statement for the +equality predicate, see +23.2.5 [unord.req]/3+4+5: +

      + +
      +

      +Each unordered associative container is parameterized by Key, by a +function object Hash that +acts as a hash function for values of type Key, and by a binary +predicate Pred that induces an +equivalence relation on values of type Key.[..] +

      +

      +A hash function is a function object that takes a single argument of +type Key and returns a +value of type std::size_t. +

      +

      +Two values k1 and k2 of type Key are considered equal if the +container's equality function object +returns true when passed those values.[..] +

      [ +2009-10 Santa Cruz: +]

      + + +
      +Ask Daniel to provide proposed wording that: makes it explicit that +function pointers are function objects at the beginning of 20.8 [function.objects]; fixes the "requirements" for typedefs in +20.8.4 [refwrap] to instead state that the function objects +defined in that clause have these typedefs, but not that these typedefs +are requirements on function objects; remove the wording that explicitly +calls out that associative container comparators may be function +pointers. +
      + +

      [ +2009-12-19 Daniel updates wording and rationale. +]

      + + +

      [ +2010-02-11 Moved to Tentatively Ready after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib. +]

      + + + + +

      Rationale:

      + +

      +The below provided wording also affects some part of the library which is +involved with callable types (20.8.1 [func.def]/3). Reason for +this is that callable objects do have a lot in common with function +objects. A simple formula seems to be: +

      + +
      +callable objects = function objects + pointers to member +
      + +

      +The latter group is excluded from function objects because of the +expression-based usage of function objects in the algorithm clause, +which is incompatible with the notation to dereference pointers to member +without a concept map available in the language. +

      + +

      +This analysis showed some currently existing normative definition differences +between the above subset of callable objects and function objects which seem to +be unintended: Backed by the Santa Cruz outcome function objects should include +both function pointers and "object[s] with an operator() defined". This clearly +excludes class types with a conversion function to a function pointer or all +similar conversion function situations described in 13.3 [over.match]/2 +b. 2. In contrast to this, the wording for callable types seems to be less +constrained (20.8.1 [func.def]/3): +

      + +
      +A callable type is a [..] class type whose objects can appear immediately to the +left of a function call operator. +
      + +

      +The rationale given in N1673 +and a recent private communication with Peter Dimov revealed that the intention +of this wording was to cover the above mentioned class types with conversion +functions as well. To me the current wording of callable types can be read +either way and I suggest to make the intention more explicit by replacing +

      + +
      +[..] class type whose objects can appear immediately to the left of a function +call operator +
      + +by + +
      +[..] class type whose objects can appear as the leftmost subexpression of a +function call expression 5.2.2 [expr.call]. +
      + +

      +and to use the same definition for the class type part of function +objects, because there is no reason to exclude class types with a +conversion function to e.g. pointer to function from being used in algorithms. +

      + +

      +Now this last term "function objects" itself brings us to a third unsatisfactory +state: The term is used both for objects (e.g. "Function objects are +objects[..]" in 20.8 [function.objects]/1) and for types (e.g. "Each +unordered associative container is parameterized [..] by a function object Hash +that acts as a hash function [..]" in 23.2.5 [unord.req]/3). This +impreciseness should be fixed and I suggest to introduce the term function +object type as the counter part to callable type. This word seems +to be a quite natural choice, because the library already uses it here and there +(e.g. "Hash shall be a unary function object type such that the expression +hf(k) has type std::size_t." in Table 98, "X::hasher" +or "Requires: T shall be a function object type [..]" in 20.8.14.2.5 [func.wrap.func.targ]/3). +

      + +

      +Finally I would like to add that part of the issue 870 discussion related to the +requirements for typedefs in 20.8.4 [refwrap] during the Santa Cruz +meeting is now handled by the new issue 1290. +

      1. +

        +Change 20.8 [function.objects]/1 as indicated: +

        + +
        +

        +1 Function objects are objects with an operator() +defined. An object type (3.9 [basic.types]) that can be the +type of the postfix-expression in a function call (5.2.2 [expr.call], 13.3.1.1 [over.match.call]) is called a function +object type*. A function object is an object of a +function object type. In the places where one would expect to +pass a pointer to a function to an algorithmic template (Clause 25 [algorithms]), the interface is specified to accept an object with +an operator() defineda function object. This not only +makes algorithmic templates work with pointers to functions, but also enables +them to work with arbitrary function objects. +

        +
        +* Such a type is either a function pointer or a class type which often has a +member operator(), but in some cases it can omit that member and +provide a conversion to a pointer to function. +

        +
      4. + +
      5. +

        +Change 20.8.10 [bind]/1 as indicated: +

        + +
        +1 The function template bind returns an object that binds a +function callable object passed as an argument to +additional arguments. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +During the Sophia Antipolis meeting it was decided to split-off some +parts of the +n2647 +("Concurrency modifications for basic_string") +proposal into a separate issue, because these weren't actually +concurrency-related. The here proposed changes refer to the recent +update document +n2668 +and attempt to take advantage of the +stricter structural requirements. +

      +

      +Indeed there exists some leeway for more guarantees that would be +very useful for programmers, especially if interaction with transactionary +or exception-unaware C API code is important. This would also allow +compilers to take advantage of more performance optimizations, because +more functions can have throw() specifications. This proposal uses the +form of "Throws: Nothing" clauses to reach the same effect, because +there already exists a different issue in progress to clean-up the current +existing "schizophrenia" of the standard in this regard. +

      +

      +Due to earlier support for copy-on-write, we find the following +unnecessary limitations for C++0x: +

      + +
        +
      1. +Missing no-throw guarantees: data() and c_str() simply return +a pointer to their guts, which is a non-failure operation. This should +be spelled out. It is also noteworthy to mention that the same +guarantees should also be given by the size query functions, +because the combination of pointer to content and the length is +typically needed during interaction with low-level API. +
      2. +
      3. +Missing complexity guarantees: data() and c_str() simply return +a pointer to their guts, which is guaranteed O(1). This should be +spelled out. +
      4. +
      5. +Missing reading access to the terminating character: Only the +const overload of operator[] allows reading access to the terminator +char. For more intuitive usage of strings, reading access to this +position should be extended to the non-const case. In contrast +to C++03 this reading access should now be homogeneously +an lvalue access. +
      6. +
      + +

      +The proposed resolution is split into a main part (A) and a +secondary part (B) (earlier called "Adjunct Adjunct Proposal"). +(B) extends (A) by also making access to index position +size() of the at() overloads a no-throw operation. This was +separated, because this part is theoretically observable in +specifically designed test programs. +

      Discussion:

      +

      +N2661 +specified the following requirements for the non-member duration +arithmetic: +

      + +
      + +
      template <class Rep1, class Period, class Rep2>
      +  duration<typename common_type<Rep1, Rep2>::type, Period>
      +  operator*(const duration<Rep1, Period>& d, const Rep2& s);
      +
      +
      +Requires: Let CR represent the common_type of Rep1 and +Rep2. Both Rep1 and Rep2 shall be implicitly convertible +to CR, diagnostic required. +
      + +
      template <class Rep1, class Period, class Rep2>
      +  duration<typename common_type<Rep1, Rep2>::type, Period>
      +  operator*(const Rep1& s, const duration<Rep2, Period>& d);
      +
      + +
      +Requires: Let CR represent the common_type of +Rep1 and Rep2. Both Rep1 and Rep2 +shall be implicitly convertible to CR, diagnostic required. +
      + +
      template <class Rep1, class Period, class Rep2>
      +  duration<typename common_type<Rep1, Rep2>::type, Period>
      +  operator/(const duration<Rep1, Period>& d, const Rep2& s);
      +
      + +
      +Requires: Let CR represent the common_type of +Rep1 and Rep2. Both Rep1 and Rep2 shall be +implicitly convertible to CR, and Rep2 shall not be an +instantiation of duration, diagnostic required. +
      + +
      + +

      +During transcription into the working paper, the requirements clauses on these +three functions was changed to: +

      + +
      +Requires: CR(Rep1, Rep2) shall exist. Diagnostic required. +
      + +

      +This is a non editorial change with respect to +N2661 +as user written representations which are used in duration need not be +implicitly convertible to or from arithmetic types in order to interoperate with +durations based on arithmetic types. An explicit conversion will do +fine for most expressions as long as there exists a common_type specialization +relating the user written representation and the arithmetic type. For example: +

      + +
      class saturate
      +{
      +public:
      +  explicit saturate(long long i);
      +  ...
      +};
      +
      +namespace std {
      +
      +template <>
      +struct common_type<saturate, long long>
      +{
      +    typedef saturate type;
      +};
      +
      +template <>
      +struct common_type<long long, saturate>
      +{
      +    typedef saturate type;
      +};
      +
      +}  // std
      +
      +millisecond ms(3);  // integral-based duration
      +duration<saturate, milli> my_ms = ms;  // ok, even with explicit conversions
      +my_ms = my_ms + ms;                    // ok, even with explicit conversions
      +
      + +

      +However, when dealing with multiplication of a duration and its representation, +implicit convertibility is required between the rhs and the lhs's representation +for the member *= operator: +

      + +
      template <class Rep, class Period = ratio<1>> 
      +class duration { 
      +public: 
      +   ...
      +   duration& operator*=(const rep& rhs);
      +   ...
      +};
      +...
      +ms *= 2;               // ok, 2 is implicitly convertible to long long
      +my_ms *= saturate(2);  // ok, rhs is lhs's representation
      +my_ms *= 2;            // error, 2 is not implicitly convertible to saturate
      +
      + +

      +The last line does not (and should not) compile. And we want non-member multiplication +to have the same behavior as member arithmetic: +

      + +
      my_ms = my_ms * saturate(2);  // ok, rhs is lhs's representation
      +my_ms = my_ms * 2;            // should be error, 2 is not implicitly convertible to saturate
      +
      + +

      +The requirements clauses of +N2661 +make the last line an error as expected. However the latest working draft at +this time +(N2723) +allows the last line to compile. +

      + +

      +All that being said, there does appear to be an error in these requirements clauses +as specified by +N2661. +

      + +
      +Requires: ... Both Rep1 and Rep2 shall be implicitly convertible +to CR, diagnostic required. +
      + +

      +It is not necessary for both Reps to be implicitly convertible to +the CR. It is only necessary for the rhs Rep to be implicitly +convertible to the CR. The Rep within the duration +should be allowed to only be explicitly convertible to the CR. The +explicit-conversion-requirement is covered under 20.11.3.7 [time.duration.cast]. +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Change the requirements clauses under 20.11.3.5 [time.duration.nonmember]: +

      + +
      + +

      +
      + +
      +Requires: CR(Rep1, Rep2) shall exist. +Rep2 shall be implicitly convertible to CR(Rep1, Rep2). +Diagnostic required. +
      + +
      template <class Rep1, class Period, class Rep2>
      +  duration<typename common_type<Rep1, Rep2>::type, Period>
      +  operator*(const Rep1& s, const duration<Rep2, Period>& d);
      +
      + +
      +Requiresd behavior: CR(Rep1, Rep2) shall exist. +Rep1 shall be implicitly convertible to CR(Rep1, Rep2). +Diagnostic required. +

      +  duration<typename common_type<Rep1, Rep2>::type, Period>
      +  operator/(const duration<Rep1, Period>& d, const Rep2& s);

      +Is this behaviour correct (I believe it is) and if so, is it +unavoidable, or not worth worrying about? +

      + +

      +This calls the lvalue/rvalue swap overload for shared_ptr: +

      template<class T> void swap( shared_ptr<T> & a, shared_ptr<T> && b );

      +This is not, in my opinion, a shared_ptr problem; it is a general issue +with the rvalue swap overloads. Do we want to prevent this code from +compiling? If so, how? +

      + +

      +Perhaps we should limit rvalue args to swap to those types that would +benefit from the "swap trick". Or, since we now have shrink_to_fit(), just +eliminate the rvalue swap overloads altogether. The original motivation +was: +

      +

      +I never thought I'd say this, but this_thread::yield seems to be too +strong in specification. The issue is that some systems distinguish +between yielding to another thread in the same process and yielding +to another process. Given that the C++ standard only talks about +a single program, one can infer that the specification allows yielding +only to another thread within the same program. Posix has no +facility for that behavior. Can you please file an issue to weaken +the wording. Perhaps "Offers the operating system the opportunity +to reschedule." +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The static const error_category objects generic_category and +system_category in header <system_error> are currently declared: +

      + +
      const error_category& get_generic_category();
      +const error_category& get_system_category();
      +
      +static const error_category& generic_category = get_generic_category();
      +static const error_category& system_category = get_system_category();
      +
      + +

      +This formulation has several problems: +

      + +
        +
      • +Implementation details are exposed, since initialization is specified in +the interface. This over-constrains implementations without offsetting +user benefits. The form of initialization specified may be less than +maximally efficient on some platforms. +
      • +
      • +Use of the objects is more expensive in terms of number of machine level +instructions. See Implementation experience below. +
      • +
      • +Depending on the compiler, some cost may be incurred by each translation unit +that includes the header, even if the objects are not used. This is a +common scenario in user code, since the header is included by other +standard library headers. It should be mentioned that at least one +compilers is able to optimize this cost away, however. +
      • +
      + +

      +IO streams uses a somewhat different formulation for iostream_category, but +still suffer much the same problems. +

      + +

      +The original plan was to eliminate these problems by applying the C++0x +constexpr feature. See LWG issue 832. However, that approach turned out +to be unimplementable, since it would require a constexpr object of a +class with virtual functions, and that is not allowed by the core +language. +

      + +

      +The proposed resolution was developed as an alternative. It mitigates the above +problems by removing initialization from the visible interface, allowing +implementations flexibility. +

      + +

      +Implementation experience: +

      +Prototype implementations of the current WP interface and proposed +resolution interface were tested with recent Codegear, GCC, Intel, and Microsoft +compilers on Windows. The code generated by the Microsoft compiler was studied +at length; the WP and proposal versions generated very similar code. For both versions +the compiler did make use of static +initialization; apparently the compiler applied an implicit constexpr +where useful, even in cases where constexpr would not be permitted by +the language! +

      +Agreement that this is wise and essential, text provided works and has +been implemented. Seems to be widespread consensus. Move to Tentative Ready. +
      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      Change 17.6.4.14 [value.error.codes] Value of error codes as indicated:

      +
      +

      Certain functions in the C++ standard library report errors via a + std::error_code (19.4.2.2) object. That object's category() member shall + return a reference to std::system_category() for errors originating from the + operating system, or a reference to an implementation-defined error_category + object for errors originating elsewhere. The implementation shall define the + possible values of value() for each of these error categories. [Example: For + operating systems that are based on POSIX, implementations are encouraged to + define the std::system_category() values as identical to the POSIX errno values, + with additional values as defined by the operating system's documentation. + Implementations for operating systems that are not based on POSIX are + encouraged to define values identical to the operating system's values. For + errors that do not originate from the operating system, the implementation may + provide enums for the associated values --end example]

      +
      + +
      +

      +Returns: A reference to an object of a type derived from class error_category. +

      + +

      +Remarks: The object's equivalent virtual functions shall behave as +specified for class error_category. The object's name virtual function +shall return a pointer to the string "system". The object's +default_error_condition virtual function shall behave as follows: +

      +
      +If the argument ev corresponds to a POSIX errno value posv, the function +shall return error_condition(posv, generic_category()). Otherwise, the +function shall return error_condition(ev, system_category()). What +constitutes correspondence for any given operating system is +unspecified. [Note: The number of potential system error codes is large +and unbounded, and some may not correspond to any POSIX errno value. +Thus implementations are given latitude in determining correspondence. +-- end note] +

      891. std::thread, std::call_once issue

      Discussion:

      +

      +I notice that the vararg overloads of std::thread and std::call_once +(N2723 30.3.1.2 [thread.thread.constr] and 30.4.4.2 [thread.once.callonce]) are no longer specified in terms of +std::bind; instead, some of the std::bind wording has been inlined into +the specification. +

      +

      +There are two problems with this. +

      +

      +First, the specification (and implementation) in terms of std::bind allows, for example: +

      + +
      std::thread th( f, 1, std::bind( g ) );
      +
      + +

      +which executes f( 1, g() ) in a thread. This can be useful. The +"inlined" formulation changes it to execute f( 1, bind(g) ) in a thread. +

      +

      +Second, assuming that we don't want the above, the specification has copied the wording +

      + +
      +INVOKE(func, w1, w2, ..., wN) (20.6.2) shall be a valid +expression for some values w1, w2, ..., wN +
      + +

      +but this is not needed since we know that our argument list is args; it should simply be +

      + +
      +INVOKE(func, args...) (20.6.2) shall be a valid expression +

      + + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      +

      +Modify 30.4.4.2 [thread.once.callonce] p1-p2 with the following: +

      + +
      +
      template<class Callable, class ...Args>
      +  void call_once(once_flag& flag, Callable&& func, Args&&... args);
      +
      + +

      +Given a function as follows: +

      + +
      
      +template<typename T> typename decay<T>::type decay_copy(T&& v)
      +   { return std::forward<T>(v); }
      +
      + +

      +1 Requires: The template parameters Callable and each +Ti in Args shall be CopyConstructible if an +lvalue and otherwise satisfy the +MoveConstructible requirements. +INVOKE(decay_copy(std::forward<Callable>(func), +w1, w2, ..., wN +decay_copy(std::forward<Args>(args))...) (20.8.2 [func.require]) shall be a valid expression for some values w1, +w2, ..., wN, where N == sizeof...(Args). +

      + +

      +2 Effects: Calls to call_once on the same once_flag +object are serialized. If there has been a prior effective call to +call_once on the same once_flag object, the call to +call_once returns without invoking func. If there has been no +prior effective call to call_once on the same once_flag +object, the argument func (or a copy thereof) is called as if by +invoking func(args) +INVOKE(decay_copy(std::forward<Callable>(func)), +decay_copy(std::forward<Args>(args))...) is executed. The call +to call_once is effective if and only if func(args) +INVOKE(decay_copy(std::forward<Callable>(func)), +decay_copy(std::forward<Args>(args))...) returns without +throwing an exception. If an exception is thrown it is propagated to the caller. +

      Discussion:

      +30.4.1.2.1 [thread.mutex.class]/27 (in +N2723) +says that the behavior is undefined if: +

      +

      • a thread that owns a mutex object calls lock() or +try_lock() on that object
      • +
      +

      +I don't believe that this is right. Calling lock() or try_lock() on a +locked mutex is well defined in the general case. try_lock() is required +to fail and return false. lock() is required to either throw an +exception (and is allowed to do so if it detects deadlock) or to block +until the mutex is free. These general requirements apply regardless of +the current owner of the mutex; they should apply even if it's owned by +the current thread. +

      +

      +Making double lock() undefined behavior probably can be justified (even +though I'd still disagree with the justification), but try_lock() on a +locked mutex must fail. +

      +

      Discussion:

      +

      +It is unclear whether shared_ptr is thread-safe in the sense that +multiple threads may simultaneously copy a shared_ptr. However this +is a critical piece of information for the client, and it has significant +impact on usability for many applications. (Detlef Vollman thinks it +is currently clear that it is not thread-safe. Hans Boehm thinks +it currently requires thread safety, since the use_count is not an +explicit field, and constructors and assignment take a const reference +to an existing shared_ptr.) +

      + +

      +Pro thread-safety: +

      +

      +Many multi-threaded usages are impossible. A thread-safe version can +be used to destroy an object when the last thread drops it, something +that is often required, and for which we have no other easy mechanism. +

      +

      +Against thread-safety: +

      +

      +The thread-safe version is well-known to be far more expensive, even +if used by a single thread. Many applications, including all single-threaded +ones, do not care. +

      + +

      [ +San Francisco: +]

      + + +
      +

      +Beman: this is a complicated issue, and would like to move this to Open +and await comment from Peter Dimov; we need very careful and complete +rationale for any decision we make; let's go slow +

      +

      +Detlef: I think that shared_ptr should not be thread-safe. +

      +

      +Hans: When you create a thread with a lambda, it in some cases makes it +very difficult for the lambda to reference anything in the heap. It's +currently ambiguous as to whether you can use a shared_ptr to get at an +object. +

      +

      +Leave in Open. Detlef will submit an alternative proposed resolution +that makes shared_ptr explicitly unsafe. +

      +

      +A third option is to support both threadsafe and non-safe share_ptrs, +and to let the programmer decide which behavior they want. +

      + + +
      +

      +I think we need to pull 896 back from ready, unfortunately. My wording +doesn't say the right thing. +

      + +

      +I suspect we really want to say something along the lines of: +

      + +
      +For purposes of determining the presence of a data race, member +functions access and modify only the shared_ptr and +weak_ptr objects themselves and not objects they refer to. +Changes in use_count() do not reflect modifications that can +introduce data races. +
      + +

      +But I think this needs further discussion by experts to make sure this +is right. +

      +
      +

      +For purposes of determining the presence of a data race, +member functions do not modify const shared_ptr and +const weak_ptr arguments, nor any objects they +refer to. [Note: This is true in spite of that fact that such functions often +cause a change in use_count() --end note] +

      +

      +

      +It +appears that we have an issue similar to issue 675 regarding the move-assignment of +stream types. For example, when assigning to an std::ifstream, +ifstream1, it seems preferable to close the file originally held by +ifstream1: +

      + +
      ifstream1 = std::move(ifstream2); 
      +
      + +

      +The current Draft +(N2723) +specifies that the move-assignment of +stream types like ifstream has the same effect as a swap: +

      +The WP and TR1 have the same text regarding the argument types of a +result_of expression: +

      +
      +The values ti are lvalues when the corresponding type Ti is a +reference type, and rvalues otherwise. +

      int f(int&);
      +f( std::move(0) );
      +
      +

      +Should the text be updated to say "when Ti is an lvalue-reference +type" or am I missing something? +

      +

      +I later came up with this self-contained example which won't compile, +but I think it should: +

      +  int operator()(int&&);

      +The current standard 14882::2003(E) as well as the current draft +N2723 +have in common a contradiction of the operational semantics +of member function test 20.5.2 [bitset.members]/56-58 and the immutable +member operator[] overload 20.5.2 [bitset.members]/64-66 (all references +are defined in terms of +N2723): +

      + +
        +
      1. bool test(size_t pos) const;
        +
        +
        +

        +Requires: pos is valid +

        +

        +Throws: out_of_range if pos does not correspond +to a valid bit position. +

        +

        +Returns: true if the bit at position pos in *this +has the value one. +

        +
        +
      2. +
      3. constexpr bool operator[](size_t pos) const;
        +
        +
        +

        +Requires: pos shall be valid. +

        +

        +Throws: nothing. +

        +

        +Returns: test(pos). +

        +
        +
      4. +
      + +

      +Three interpretations: +

      + +
        +
      1. +The operator[] overload is indeed allowed to throw an exception +(via test(), if pos corresponds to an invalid bit position) which does +not leave the call frame. In this case this function cannot be a +constexpr function, because test() is not, due to +5.19 [expr.const]/2, last bullet. +
      2. +
      3. +The intend was not to throw an exception in test in case of an +invalid bit position. There is only little evidence for this interpretation. +
      4. +
      5. +The intend was that operator[] should not throw any exception, +but that test has the contract to do so, if the provided bit position +is invalid. +
      6. +
      + +

      +The problem became worse, because issue 720 +recently voted into WP argued that member test logically must be +a constexpr function, because it was used to define the semantics +of another constexpr function (the operator[] overload). +

      + +

      +Three alternatives are proposed, corresponding to the three bullets +(A), (B), and (C), the author suggests to follow proposal (C). +

      + + +Proposed alternatives: + + +
        +
      1. +

        +Remove the constexpr specifier in front of operator[] overload and +undo that of member test (assuming 720 is accepted) in both the +class declaration 20.5 [template.bitset]/1 and in the member description +before 20.5.2 [bitset.members]/56 and before /64 to read: +

      +

      +Construction of a regex_token_iterator (28.12.2 [re.tokiter]/6+) usually +requires the provision of a sequence of integer values, which +can currently be done via a std::vector<int> or +a C array of int.

This could be done as a pure addition or one could +even consider replacement.

      Discussion:

      +

      +Class template basic_istream, basic_ostream and basic_iostream +implements public move constructors, move assignment operators and swap +method and free functions. This might induce both the user and the +compiler to think that those types are MoveConstructible, MoveAssignable +and Swappable. However, those class templates fail to fulfill the user +expectations. For example: +

      + +
      std::ostream os(std::ofstream("file.txt"));
      +assert(os.rdbuf() == 0); // buffer object is not moved to os, file.txt has been closed
      +
      +std::vector<std::ostream> v;
      +v.push_back(std::ofstream("file.txt"));
      +v.reserve(100); // causes reallocation
      +assert(v[0].rdbuf() == 0); // file.txt has been closed!
      +
      +std::ostream&& os1 = std::ofstream("file1.txt");
      +os1 = std::ofstream("file2.txt");
      +os1 << "hello, world"; // still writes to file1.txt, not to file2.txt!
      +
      +std::ostream&& os1 = std::ofstream("file1.txt");
      +std::ostream&& os2 = std::ofstream("file2.txt");
      +std::swap(os1, os2);
      +os1 << "hello, world"; // writes to file1.txt, not to file2.txt!
      +
      + +

      +This is because the move constructor, the move assignment operator and +swap are all implemented through calls to std::basic_ios member +functions move() and swap() that do not move nor swap the controlled +stream buffers. That can't happen because the stream buffers may have +different types. +

      + +

      +Notice that for basic_streambuf, the member function swap() is +protected. I believe that is correct and all of basic_istream, +basic_ostream, basic_iostream should do the same as the move ctor, move +assignment operator and swap member function are needed by the derived +fstreams and stringstreams template. The free swap functions for +basic_(i|o|io)stream templates should be removed for the same reason. +

      + +

      [ +Batavia (2009-05): +]

      + +
      +

      +We note that the rvalue swap functions have already been removed. +

      +

      +Bill is unsure about making the affected functions protected; +he believes they may need to be public. +

      +We are also unsure about removing the lvalue swap functions as proposed. +

      [ +2009-07 Frankfurt: +]

      + + +
      +

      +It's not clear that the use case is compelling. +

      +

      +Howard: This needs to be implemented and tested. +

      [ +2009-07-26 Howard adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +I started out thinking I would recommend NAD for this one. I've turned around +to agree with the proposed resolution (which I've updated to the current draft). +I did not fully understand Ganesh's rationale, and attempt to describe my +improved understanding below. +

      + +

      +The move constructor, move assignment operator, and swap function are different +for basic_istream, basic_ostream and basic_iostream +than other classes. A timely conversation with Daniel reminded me of this long +forgotten fact. These members are sufficiently different that they would be +extremely confusing to use in general, but they are very much needed for derived +clients. +

      + +
        +
      • +The move constructor moves everything but the rdbuf pointer. +
      • +
      • +The move assignment operator moves everything but the rdbuf pointer. +
      • +
      • +The swap function swaps everything but the rdbuf pointer. +
      • +
      + +

      +The reason for this behavior is that for the std-derived classes (stringstreams, +filestreams), the rdbuf pointer points back into the class itself +(self referencing). It can't be swapped or moved. But this fact isn't born out +at the stream level. Rather it is born out at the fstream/sstream +level. And the lower levels just need to deal with that fact by not messing around +with the rdbuf pointer which is stored down at the lower levels. +

      + +

      +In a nutshell, it is very confusing for all of those who are not so intimately +related with streams that they've implemented them. And it is even fairly +confusing for some of those who have (including myself). I do not think it is +safe to swap or move istreams or ostreams because this will +(by necessary design) separate stream state from streambuffer state. Derived +classes (such as fstream and stringstream must be used to +keep the stream state and stream buffer consistently packaged as one unit during +a move or swap. +

      + +

      +I've implemented this proposal and am living with it day to day. +

      +The compile-time functions that operate on ratio<N,D> require the +cumbersome and error-prone "evaluation" of a type member using a +meta-programming style that predates the invention of template aliases. +Thus, multiplying three ratios a, b, and c requires the expression: +

      Discussion:

      +

      +The current working draft +(N2798), +section 20.9.10.2.1 [util.smartptr.shared.const] declares +shared_ptr's constructor that takes a rvalue reference to unique_ptr and +auto_ptr as being explicit, affecting several valid smart pointer use +cases that would take advantage of this conversion being implicit, for +example: +

      + +
      class A;
      +std::unique_ptr<A> create();
      +void process(std::shared_ptr<A> obj);
      +
      +int main()
      +{
      +   process(create());                  // use case #1
      +   std::unique_ptr<A> uobj = create();
      +   process(std::move(uobj));           // use case #2
      +   return 0;
      +}
      +
      + +

      +If unique_ptr to shared_ptr conversions are explicit, the above lines +should be written: +

      + +
      process(std::shared_ptr<A>(create()));        // use case #1
      +process(std::shared_ptr<A>(std::move(uobj))); // use case #2
      +
      + +

      +The extra cast required doesn't seems to give any benefits to the user, +nor protects him of any unintended conversions, this being the raison +d'etre of explicit constructors. +

      + +

      +It seems that this constructor was made explicit to mimic the conversion +from auto_ptr in pre-rvalue reference days, which accepts both lvalue and +rvalue references. Although this decision was valid back then, C++0x +allows the user to express in a clear and non verbose manner when he wants +move semantics to be employed, be it implicitly (use case 1) or explicitly +(use case 2). +

      + +

      +The thread constructor for starting a new thread with a function and +arguments is overly constrained by the signature requiring rvalue +references for func and args and the CopyConstructible requirements +for the elements of args. The use of an rvalue reference for the +function restricts the potential use of a plain function name, since +the type of the bound parameter will be deduced to be a function +reference and decay to pointer-to-function will not happen. This +therefore complicates the implementation in order to handle a simple +case. Furthermore, the use of rvalue references for args prevents the +array to pointer decay. Since arrays are not CopyConstructible or even +MoveConstructible, this essentially prevents the passing of arrays as +parameters. In particular it prevents the passing of string literals. +Consequently a simple case such as +

      + +
      void f(const char*);
      +std::thread t(f,"hello");
      +
      + +

      +is ill-formed since the type of the string literal is const char[6]. +

      + +

      +By changing the signature to take all parameters by value we can +eliminate the CopyConstructible requirement and permit the use of +arrays, as the parameter passing semantics will cause the necessary +array-to-pointer decay. They will also cause the function name to +decay to a pointer to function and allow the implementation to handle +functions and function objects identically. +

      + +

      +The new signature of the thread constructor for a function and +arguments is thus: +

      + +
      template<typename F,typename... Args>
      +thread(F,Args... args);
      +
      + +

      +Since the parameter pack Args can be empty, the single-parameter +constructor that takes just a function by value is now redundant. +

      + +

      [ +Howard adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +I agree with everything Anthony says in this issue. However I believe we +can optimize in such a way as to get the pass-by-value behavior with the +pass-by-rvalue-ref performance. The performance difference is that the latter +removes a move when passing in an lvalue. +

      + +

      +This circumstance is very analogous to make_pair (20.3.5 [pairs]) +where we started with passing by const reference, changed to pass by value to +get pointer decay, and then changed to pass by rvalue reference, but modified with +decay<T> to retain the pass-by-value behavior. If we were to +apply the same solution here it would look like: +

      + +
      template <class F> explicit thread(F f);
      +template <class F, class ...Args> thread(F&& f, Args&&... args);
      +

      +
      +

      +The new thread of +execution executes INVOKE(g, wi...) where the wi... refers +to the elements stored in the tuple w. +Any return value from g is ignored. +If f terminates with an uncaught exception, std::terminate() shall be called. +If the evaluation of INVOKE(g, wi...) terminates +with an uncaught exception, std::terminate() shall be called [Note: +std::terminate() could be called before entering g. -- end note].

      + + +
      +

      +We need to consider whether some requirements in the Requires paragraphs +of [unique.ptr] should instead be Remarks. +

      +
      + +

      [ +2009-07-27 Howard adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +The two constructors to which this issue applies are not easily constrained +with enable_if as they are not templated: +

      + +
      unique_ptr();
      +explicit unique_ptr(pointer p);
      +
      + +

      +To "SFINAE" these constructors away would take heroic effort such as specializing +the entire unique_ptr class template on pointer deleter types. There +is insufficient motivation for such heroics. Here is the expected and +reasonable implementation for these constructors: +

      + +
      unique_ptr()
      +    : ptr_(pointer())
      +    {
      +        static_assert(!is_pointer<deleter_type>::value,
      +            "unique_ptr constructed with null function pointer deleter");
      +    }
      +explicit unique_ptr(pointer p)
      +    : ptr_(p)
      +    {
      +        static_assert(!is_pointer<deleter_type>::value,
      +            "unique_ptr constructed with null function pointer deleter");
      +    }
      +
      + +

      +I.e. just use static_assert to verify that the constructor is not +instantiated with a function pointer for a deleter. The compiler will automatically +take care of issuing a diagnostic if the deleter is a reference type (uninitialized +reference error). +

      + +

      +In keeping with our discussions in Frankfurt, I'm moving this requirement on +the implementation from the Requires paragraph to a Remarks paragraph. +

      +duration is missing operator%. This operator is convenient +for computing where in a time frame a given duration lies. A +motivating example is converting a duration into a "broken-down" +time duration such as hours::minutes::seconds: +

      + +
      class ClockTime
      +{
      +    typedef std::chrono::hours hours;
      +    typedef std::chrono::minutes minutes;
      +    typedef std::chrono::seconds seconds;
      +public:
      +    hours hours_;
      +    minutes minutes_;
      +    seconds seconds_;
      +
      +    template <class Rep, class Period>
      +      explicit ClockTime(const std::chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& d)
      +        : hours_  (std::chrono::duration_cast<hours>  (d)),
      +          minutes_(std::chrono::duration_cast<minutes>(d % hours(1))),
      +          seconds_(std::chrono::duration_cast<seconds>(d % minutes(1)))
      +          {}

    939. Problem with std::identity and reference-to-temporaries

    +

    Discussion:

    +

    +std::identity takes an argument of type T const & +and returns a result of T const &. +

    +

    +Unfortunately, this signature will accept a value of type other than T that +is convertible-to-T, and then return a reference to the dead temporary. The +constraint in the concepts version simply protects against returning +reference-to-void. +

    +

    +Solutions: +

    +
    +

    +i/ Return-by-value, potentially slicing bases and rejecting non-copyable +types +

    +

    +ii/ Provide an additional overload: +

    +
    template< typename T >
    +template operator( U & ) = delete;
    +
    +

    +This seems closer on intent, but moves beyond the original motivation for +the operator, which is compatibility with existing (non-standard) +implementations. +

    +

    +iii/ Remove the operator() overload. This restores the original definition +of the identity, although now effectively a type_trait rather than part of +the perfect forwarding protocol. +

    +

    +iv/ Remove std::identity completely; its original reason to exist is +replaced with the IdentityOf concept. +

    +
    +

    +My own preference is somewhere between (ii) and (iii) - although I stumbled +over the issue with a specific application hoping for resolution (i)! +

    -
      vector<vector<T> > v(10, 1);
    -
    +

    [ +Batavia (2009-05): +]

    +

    -because the integral type 1 is not *implicitly* convertible to -vector<T>. The wording above requires a diagnostic.

    +We dislike options i and iii, and option ii seems like overkill. +If we remove it (option iv), implementers can still provide it under a +different name. +

    +

    +Move to Open pending wording (from Alisdair) for option iv. +

    + +

    -The proposed resolution leaves the behavior of the following code -unspecified. +I'm not sure why this issue was not discussed at Frankfurt (or I missed +the discussion) but the rationale is now fundamentally flawed. With the +removal of concepts, std::identity again becomes an important library +type so we cannot simply remove it. +

    +

    +At that point, we need to pick one of the other suggested resolutions, +but have no guidance at the moment.

    +

    +I believe the rationale for not addressing this issue in Frankfurt was that it did +not address a national body comment. +

    +

    +I also believe that removal of identity is still a practical option as +my latest reformulation of forward, which is due to comments suggested +at Summit, no longer uses identity. :-) +

    +__duration_divide_result is basically a custom-built enable_if +that will contain type only if Rep2 is not a duration +and if Rep2 is implicitly convertible to +common_type<typename Duration::rep, Rep2>::type. __is_duration +is simply a private trait that answers false, but is specialized for +duration to answer true. +

    - Returns: &sb. -

    +

    +... If the implementation is unable to form the indicated ratio due to +overflow, a diagnostic shall be issued. +

    +
    -

    to:

    -

    - Returns: const_cast<basic_filebuf<charT,traits>*>(&sb). -

    +

    +The lack of a diagnostic on compile-time overflow is a significant lack of +functionality. This paragraph could be put back into the WP simply editorially. +However in forming this issue I realized that we can do better than that. This +paragraph should also allow alternative formulations which go to extra lengths +to avoid overflow when possible. I.e. we should not mandate overflow when the +implementation can avoid it. +

    +

    +For example: +

    +
    +
    template <class R1, class R2> struct ratio_multiply {
    +  typedef see below} type; 
    +
    +
    +The nested typedef type shall be a synonym for ratio<T1, T2> where +T1 has the value R1::num * R2::num and T2 has the +value R1::den * R2::den. +
    +
    +

    +Consider the case where intmax_t is a 64 bit 2's complement signed integer, +and we have: +

    +
    typedef std::ratio<0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF, 0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFF0> R1;
    +typedef std::ratio<8, 7> R2;
    +typedef std::ratio_multiply<R1, R2>::type RT;
    +
    +

    +According to the present formulation the implementaiton will multiply +0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF * 8 which will result in an overflow and subsequently +require a diagnostic. +

    -The standard places no restrictions at all on the reference type -of input, output, or forward iterators (for forward iterators it -only specifies that *x must be value_type& and doesn't mention -the reference type). Bidirectional iterators' reference type is -restricted only by implication, since the base iterator's -reference type is used as the return type of reverse_iterator's -operator*, which must be T& in order to be a conforming forward -iterator. +However if the implementation is first allowed to divde 0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF +by 7 obtaining 0x1249249249249249 / 1 and divide +8 by 0x7FFFFFFFFFFFFFF0 obtaining 1 / 0x0FFFFFFFFFFFFFFE, +then the exact result can then be computed without overflow:

    Discussion:

    -(Jeremy Siek) During the discussion in Sydney, it was felt that a -simpler long term solution for this was needed. The solution proposed -was to require reference to be the same type as *a -and pointer to be the same type as a->. Most -iterators in the Standard Library already meet this requirement. Some -iterators are output iterators, and do not need to meet the -requirement, and others are only specified through the general -iterator requirements (which will change with this resolution). The -sole case where there is an explicit definition of the reference type -that will need to change is istreambuf_iterator which returns -charT from operator* but has a reference type of -charT&. We propose changing the reference type of -istreambuf_iterator to charT. +20.9.10.3.7 [util.smartptr.ownerless] (class template owner_less) says that +operator()(x,y) shall return x.before(y). +

    +

    +However, shared_ptr and weak_ptr have an owner_before() but not a +before(), and there's no base class to provide a missing before(). +

    +

    +Being that the class is named owner_less , I'm guessing that +"before()" should be "owner_before()", right?

    -

    The other option for resolving the issue with pointer, - mentioned in the note below, is to remove pointer - altogether. I prefer placing requirements on pointer to - removing it for two reasons. First, pointer will become - useful for implementing iterator adaptors and in particular, - reverse_iterator will become more well defined. Second, - removing pointer is a rather drastic and publicly-visible - action to take.

    +

    [ +Herve adds: +]

    + + +
    +Agreed with the typo, it should be "shall return x.owner_before(y)". +
    + +

    [ +Post Summit: +]

    -

    The proposed resolution technically enlarges the requirements for -iterators, which means there are existing iterators (such as -istreambuf_iterator, and potentially some programmer-defined -iterators) that will no longer meet the requirements. Will this break -existing code? The scenario in which it would is if an algorithm -implementation (say in the Standard Library) is changed to rely on -iterator_traits::reference, and then is used with one of the -iterators that do not have an appropriately defined -iterator_traits::reference. -

    +
    +Recommend Tentatively Ready. +
    -

    The proposed resolution makes one other subtle change. Previously, -it was required that output iterators have a difference_type -and value_type of void, which means that a forward -iterator could not be an output iterator. This is clearly a mistake, -so I've changed the wording to say that those types may be -void. + + +

    -Table 76, the random access iterator requirement table, says that the -return type of a[n] must be "convertible to T".

    The C++ Standard effectively requires that the traditional C headers -(of the form <xxx.h>) be defined in terms of the newer C++ -headers (of the form <cxxx>). Clauses 17.4.1.2/4 and D.5 combine -to require that:

    -It is worth observing that the rate at which programmers fall afoul of -these differences has remained small, at least as measured by newsgroup -postings and our own bug reports. (By an overwhelming margin, the -commonest problem is still that programmers include <string> and can't -understand why the typename string isn't defined -- this a decade after -the committee invented namespace std, nominally for the benefit of all -programmers.) +Indeed, treat_as_floating_point +becomes completely superfluous if duration::rep can never be a class type.

    -We should accept the fact that we made a serious mistake and rectify it, -however belatedly, by explicitly allowing either of the two schemes for -declaring C names in headers. +There will be some Rep types which will not meet the requirements of +every duration operation. This is no different than the fact +that vector<T> can easily be used for types T which are +not DefaultConstructible, even though some members of vector<T> +require T to be DefaultConstructible. This is why the requirements +on Rep are specified for each operation individually.

    +The duration template uses the treat_as_floating_point trait to help +determine if a duration object can be converted to another duration +with a different tick period.

    -

    -Change D.6 [depr.c.headers], para. 2-3: +This specification has been implemented, now multiple times, and the experience +has been favorable. The current specification clearly specifies the requirements +at each point of use (though I'd be happy to fix any place I may have missed, +but none has been pointed out).

    -

    --2- Every C header, each of which has a name of the form name.h, behaves -as if each name placed in the Standard library namespace by the corresponding -cname header is also placed within the global -namespace scope. of the namespace std and is followed -by an explicit using-declaration (7.3.3 [namespace.udecl]). -It is unspecified whether these names are first declared or defined within -namespace scope (3.3.6 [basic.scope.namespace]) of the namespace -std and are then injected into the global namespace scope by explicit -using-declarations (7.3.3 [namespace.udecl]). +I am amenable to improved wording of this paragraph (and any others), but do not have any +suggestions for improved wording at this time.

    -Template time_get currently contains difficult, if not impossible, -requirements for do_date_order, do_get_time, and do_get_date. All require -the implementation to scan a field generated by the %x or %X conversion -specifier in strftime. Yes, do_date_order can always return no_order, but -that doesn't help the other functions. The problem is that %x can be -nearly anything, and it can vary widely with locales. It's horribly -onerous to have to parse "third sunday after Michaelmas in the year of -our Lord two thousand and three," but that's what we currently ask of -do_get_date. More practically, it leads some people to think that if -%x produces 10.2.04, we should know to look for dots as separators. Still -not easy. +Related to 951.

    -Note that this is the opposite effect from the intent stated in the -footnote earlier in this subclause: +20.11.1 [time.clock.req] says that a clock's rep member is "an +arithmetic type or a class emulating an arithmetic type." What are the +requirements for such a type?

    1. add vector<T>::data() member (const and non-const version) -semantics: if( empty() ) return 0; else return buffer_;
    2. -
    3. add map<Key,T>::at( const Key& k ) member (const and non-const version) -semantics: iterator i = find( k ); if( i != end() ) return *i; else throw range_error();

      2. +
      3. +"Different clocks may share a time_point definition if it is +valid to compare their time_points by comparing their +respective durations." What does "valid" mean here? And, since +C1::rep is "**THE** representation type of the native +duration and time_point" (emphasis added), there +doesn't seem to be much room for some other representation. +

      Rationale:

      - -
        -
      • To obtain a pointer to the vector's buffer, one must use either -operator[]() (which can give undefined behavior for empty vectors) or -at() (which will then throw if the vector is empty).

        +"epoch" is purposefully not defined beyond the common English +definition. The C standard +also chose not to define epoch, though POSIX did. I believe it is a strength +of the C standard that epoch is not defined. When it is known that two time_points +refer to the same epoch, then a definition of the epoch is not needed to compare +the two time_points, or subtract them. +

        +

        +A time_point and a Clock implicitly refer to an (unspecified) epoch. +The time_point represents an offset (duration) from an epoch. +

      -Table 37 describes the requirements on Traits::compare() in terms of -those on Traits::lt(). 21.1.3.1, p6 requires char_traits<char>::lt() -to yield the same result as operator<(char, char). +20.11.1 [time.clock.req] uses the word "native" in several places, +but doesn't define it. What is a "native duration"?

      -

      -Most, if not all, implementations of char_traits<char>::compare() -call memcmp() for efficiency. However, the C standard requires both -memcmp() and strcmp() to interpret characters under comparison as -unsigned, regardless of the signedness of char. As a result, all -these char_traits implementations fail to meet the requirement -imposed by Table 37 on compare() when char is signed. -

      +The standard uses "native" in several places without defining it (e.g. +2.14.3 [lex.ccon]). It is meant to mean "that which is defined +by the facility", or something along those lines. In this case it refers +to the nested time_point and duration types of the clock. +Better wording is welcome. +

    [ +Beman provided proposed wording. +]

    -

    -We suspect that for_each's classification in "non-modifying sequence -operations" means that the algorithm itself does not inherently modify the -sequence or the elements in the sequence, but that the function object -passed to it may modify the elements it operates on. -

    Discussion:

    -

    It appears that there are no requirements specified for many of the -template parameters in clause 22. It looks like this issue has never -come up, except perhaps for Facet.

    +

    +30.3.1.5 [thread.thread.member]: thread::detach is required to +throw an exception if the thread is "not a detachable thread". +"Detachable" is never defined. +

    -

    Clause 22 isn't even listed in 17.3.2.1 [lib.type.descriptions], -either, which is the wording that allows requirements on template -parameters to be identified by name.

    +

    [ +Howard adds: +]

    -

    So one issue is that 17.3.2.1 [lib.type.descriptions] Should be -changed to cover clause 22. A better change, which will cover us in -the future, would be to say that it applies to all the library -clauses. Then if a template gets added to any library clause we are -covered.

    -

    charT, InputIterator, and other names with requirements defined -elsewhere are fine, assuming the 17.3.2.1 [lib.type.descriptions] fix. -But there are a few template arguments names which I don't think have -requirements given elsewhere:

    +
    +Due to a mistake on my part, 3 proposed resolutions appeared at approximately +the same time. They are all three noted below in the discussion. +
    -
      -
    • internT and externT. The fix is to add wording saying that internT -and externT must meet the same requirements as template arguments -named charT.
    • +

      [ +Summit, proposed resolution: +]

      -
    • stateT. I'm not sure about this one. There already is some wording, -but it seems a bit vague.
    • -
    • Intl. [lib.locale.moneypunct.byname] The fix for this one is to -rename "Intl" to "International". The name is important because other -text identifies the requirements for the name International but not -for Intl.

      [ +Post Summit, Jonathan Wakely adds: +]

      -

      Rationale:

      + +

      - Again, a blanket clause isn't blanket enough. Also, we've got a - couple of names that we don't have blanket requirement statements - for. The only issue is what to do about stateT. This wording is - thin, but probably adequate.

      +A thread is detachable if it is joinable. As we've defined joinable, +we can just use that. +

      +

      +This corresponds to the pthreads specification, where pthread_detach +fails if the thread is not joinable: +

      +
      +EINVAL: The implementation has detected that the value specified by +thread does not refer to a joinable thread. +

      Discussion:

      -In the context of floating point numbers it seems reasonable to expect -to be able to use traps to determine whether a program can "safely" use -infinity(), quiet_NaN(), etc., in arithmetic expressions, that is -without causing a trap (i.e., on UNIX without having to worry about -getting a signal). When traps is true, I would expect any of the -operations in section 7 of IEEE 754 to cause a trap (and my program -to get a SIGFPE). So, for example, on Alpha, I would expect traps -to be true by default (unless I compiled my program with the -ieee -option), false by default on most other popular architectures, -including IA64, MIPS, PA-RISC, PPC, SPARC, and x86 which require -traps to be explicitly enabled by the program. +30.5.1 [thread.condition.condvar]: the constructor for +condition_variable throws an exception with error code +device_or_resource_busy "if attempting to initialize a +previously-initialized but as of yet undestroyed condition_variable." +How can this occur?

      + +

      -Another possible interpretation of p59 is that traps should be true -on any implementation that supports traps regardless of whether they -are enabled by default or not. I don't think such an interpretation -makes the traps member very useful, even though that is how traps is -implemented on several platforms. It is also the only way to implement -traps on platforms that allow programs to enable and disable trapping -at runtime. +Move to review.

Such exceptions +shall be thrown if any of the Error conditions are detected or a call to an operating system or other underlying API +results in an error that prevents the library function from meeting its specifications. +[Note: See 17.6.4.12 [res.on.exception.handling] for exceptions thrown to report +storage allocation failures. —end +note]

      +

      [Example:

      Rationale:

      -

      -Partition is a "foundation" algorithm useful in many contexts (like sorting -as just one example) - my motivation for extending it to include forward -iterators is foward_list - without this extension you can't partition an foward_list -(without writing your own partition). Holes like this in the standard -library weaken the argument for generic programming (ideally I'd be able -to provide a library that would refine std::partition() to other concepts -without fear of conflicting with other libraries doing the same - but -that is a digression). I consider the fact that partition isn't defined -to work for ForwardIterator a minor embarrassment. -

      +

      Consider a function in this clause that is specified to throw exceptions of type +system_error and specifies Error conditions that include +operation_not_permitted for a thread that does not have the privilege to +perform the operation. Assume that, during the execution of this function, an errno +of EPERM is reported by a POSIX API call used by the +implementation. Since POSIX specifies an errno of EPERM +when "the caller does not have the privilege to perform the operation", +the implementation maps EPERM  to an error_condition +of operation_not_permitted (19.5 [syserr]) and an exception of type +system_error is thrown.

      Discussion:

      -The fifth of these engines with predefined parameters, ranlux64_base_01, -appears to have an unintentional error for which there is a simple correction. -The two pre-defined subtract_with_carry_01 engines are given as: -

      -

      -typedef subtract_with_carry_01<double, 48, 10, 24> ranlux64_base_01;
      -
      -

      -We demonstrate below that ranlux64_base_01 fails to meet the intent of the -random number generation proposal, but that the simple correction to +The following code should not compile because it involves implicit truncation +errors (against the design philosophy of the duration library).

      +
      duration<double> d(3.5);
      +duration<int> i = d;  // implicit truncation, should not compile
       
      +

      -does meet the intent of defining well-known good parameterizations. -

      -

      -The ranlux64_base_01 engine as presented fails to meet the intent for -predefined engines, stated in proposal N1398 (section E): -

      -

      -In order to make good random numbers available to a large number of library -users, this proposal not only defines generic random-number engines, but also -provides a number of predefined well-known good parameterizations for those. -

      -

      -The predefined ranlux_base_01 engine has been proven [1,2,3] to have a very -long period and so meets this criterion. This property makes it suitable for -use in the excellent discard_block engines defined subsequently. The proof -of long period relies on the fact (proven in [1]) that 2**(w*r) - 2**(w*s) -+ 1 is prime (w, r, and s are template parameters to subtract_with_carry_01, -as defined in [tr.rand.eng.sub1]). -

      -

      -The ranlux64_base_01 engine as presented in [tr.rand.predef] uses w=48, r=24, s=10. -For these numbers, the combination 2**(w*r)-2**(w*s)+1 is non-prime (though -explicit factorization would be a challenge). In consequence, while it is -certainly possible for some seeding states that this engine would have a very -long period, it is not at all "well-known" that this is the case. The intent -in the N1398 proposal involved the base of the ranlux64 engine, which finds heavy -use in the physics community. This is isomorphic to the predefined ranlux_base_01, -but exploits the ability of double variables to hold (at least) 48 bits of mantissa, -to deliver 48 random bits at a time rather than 24. +This intent was codified in the example implementation which drove this proposal +but I failed to accurately translate the code into the specification in this +regard.

      Proposed resolution:

      -To achieve this intended behavior, the correct template parameteriztion would be: -

      Addresses UK 208

      -This defect is also being discussed on the Boost developers list. The -full discussion can be found here: -http://lists.boost.org/boost/2005/07/29546.php -

      -

      --- Begin original message -- -

      -

      -Also, I may have found another issue, closely related to the one under -discussion. It regards case-insensitive matching of named character -classes. The regex_traits<> provides two functions for working with -named char classes: lookup_classname and isctype. To match a char class -such as [[:alpha:]], you pass "alpha" to lookup_classname and get a -bitmask. Later, you pass a char and the bitmask to isctype and get a -bool yes/no answer. -

      -

      -But how does case-insensitivity work in this scenario? Suppose we're -doing a case-insensitive match on [[:lower:]]. It should behave as if it -were [[:lower:][:upper:]], right? But there doesn't seem to be enough -smarts in the regex_traits interface to do this. -

      -

      -Imagine I write a traits class which recognizes [[:fubar:]], and the -"fubar" char class happens to be case-sensitive. How is the regex engine -to know that? And how should it do a case-insensitive match of a -character against the [[:fubar:]] char class? John, can you confirm this -is a legitimate problem? -

      -

      -I see two options: +I don't see an open issue on supporting std::hash for smart pointers +(unique_ptr and shared_ptr at least).

      -1) Add a bool icase parameter to lookup_classname. Then, -lookup_classname( "upper", true ) will know to return lower|upper -instead of just upper. +It seems reasonable to at least expect support for the smart +pointers, especially as they support comparison for use in ordered +associative containers.

      + +

      [ +Batavia (2009-05): +]

      -2) Add a isctype_nocase function +Howard points out that the client can always supply a custom hash function.

      -I prefer (1) because the extra computation happens at the time the -pattern is compiled rather than when it is executed. +Alisdair replies that the smart pointer classes are highly likely +to be frequently used as hash keys.

      --- End original message -- +Bill would prefer to be conservative.

      Issue 69, which was incorporated into C++03, mandated - that the elements of a vector must be stored in contiguous memory. - Should the same also apply to basic_string?

      - -

      We almost require contiguity already. Clause 23.4.4 [multiset] - defines operator[] as data()[pos]. What's missing - is a similar guarantee if we access the string's elements via the - iterator interface.

      - -

      Given the existence of data(), and the definition of - operator[] and at in terms of data, - I don't believe it's possible to write a useful and standard- - conforming basic_string that isn't contiguous. I'm not - aware of any non-contiguous implementation. We should just require - it. +

      Discussion:

      -

      -The array forms of unformatted input functions don't seem to have well-defined -semantics for zero-element arrays in a couple of cases. The affected ones -(istream::get() and istream::getline()) are supposed to -terminate when (n - 1) characters are stored, which obviously can -never be true when (n == 0) holds to start with. See -c++std-lib-16071. -

      Proposed resolution:

      -

      -I suggest changing 27.6.1.3, p7 (istream::get()), bullet 1 to read: -

      -
        -
      • - (n < 1) is true or (n - 1) characters - are stored; -
      • -
      -

      -Change 27.6.1.3, p9: -

      - -

      -If the function stores no characters, it calls setstate(failbit) (which -may throw ios_base::failure (27.4.4.3)). In any case, if (n -> 0) is true it then stores a null character into the next -successive location of the array. -

      - -

      - -and similarly p17 (istream::getline()), bullet 3 to: - -

      -
        -
      • - (n < 1) is true or (n - 1) characters - are stored (in which case the function calls - setstate(failbit)). -
      • -
      - -

      - -In addition, to clarify that istream::getline() must not store the -terminating NUL character unless the the array has non-zero size, Robert -Klarer suggests in c++std-lib-16082 to change 27.6.1.3, p20 to read: - -

      -

      - -In any case, provided (n > 0) is true, it then stores a null character -(using charT()) into the next successive location of the array. - -

      Discussion:

      -Is the void specialization of the template assignment operator taking -a shared_ptr<void> as an argument supposed be well-formed? -

      -

      -I.e., is this snippet well-formed: -

      -
      shared_ptr<void> p;
      -p.operator=<void>(p);
      -
      - -

      -Gcc complains about auto_ptr<void>::operator*() returning a reference -to void. I suspect it's because shared_ptr has two template assignment -operators, one of which takes auto_ptr, and the auto_ptr template gets -implicitly instantiated in the process of overload resolution. +In 30.4.3 [thread.lock.algorithm], the generic try_lock effects (p2) say that a failed +try_lock is when it either returns false or throws an exception. In +the event a call to try_lock does fail, by either returning false or +throwing an exception, it states that unlock shall be called for all +prior arguments. Then the returns clause (p3) goes on to state +in a note that after returning, either all locks are locked or none +will be. So what happens if multiple locks fail on try_lock?

      -The only way I see around it is to do the same trick with auto_ptr<void> -operator*() as with the same operator in shared_ptr<void>. +Example:

      Discussion:

      -It would be much better if inserter had the following signature instead: +Consider the following (simplified) implementation of +std::auto_ptr<T>::reset():

      -
      template <class Container>
      -insert_iterator<Container>
      -inserter(Container& x, typename Container::iterator i);
      +
      void reset(T* newptr = 0) { 
      +   if (this->ptr && this->ptr != newptr) { 
      +     delete this->ptr; 
      +   } 
      +   this->ptr = newptr; 
      +} 
       

      -Now there is only one free template parameter. And the second argument to -inserter must be implicitly convertible to the container's iterator, -else the call will not be a viable overload (allowing other functions in the -overload set to take precedence). Furthermore, the first parameter must have a -nested type named iterator, or again the binding to std::inserter -is not viable. Contrast this with the current situation -where any type can bind to Container or Iterator and those -types need not be anything closely related to containers or iterators. +Now consider the following code which uses the above implementation:

      +
      struct foo { 
      +   std::auto_ptr<foo> ap; 
      +   foo() : ap(this) {}

      +   (new foo)->reset(); 
      +} 
      +

      -This can adversely impact well written code. Consider: +With the above implementation of auto_ptr, this results in U.B. at the +point of auto_ptr::reset(). If this isn't obvious yet, let me explain +how this goes step by step:

      - -For better efficiency, the requirement on the stringbuf ctor that -takes a string argument should be loosened up to let it set -epptr() beyond just one past the last initialized -character just like overflow() has been changed to be -allowed to do (see issue 432). That way the first call to -sputc() on an object won't necessarily cause a call to -overflow. The corresponding change should be made to the -string overload of the str() member function. - -

If -which & ios_base::in is true, initializes the input sequence such -that eback() and gptr() point to the first underlying -character and egptr() points one past the last underlying character. +The same fix (reference 987) may be applied to addressof, which is also constrained to +ObjectType.

      -[tr.util.smartptr.shared.dest] says in its second bullet: -

      -

      -"If *this shares ownership with another shared_ptr instance (use_count() > 1), -decrements that instance's use count." -

      +

      Addresses UK 277

      -The problem with this formulation is that it presupposes the existence of an -"use count" variable that can be decremented and that is part of the state of a -shared_ptr instance (because of the "that instance's use count".) +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.

      +

      [ +Summit: +]

      + + +
      +Agree with option i. +
      +

      -This is contrary to the spirit of the rest of the specification that carefully -avoids to require an use count variable. Instead, use_count() is specified to -return a value, a number of instances. +Related issue: 408

      -In multithreaded code, the usual implicit assumption is that a shared variable -should not be accessed by more than one thread without explicit synchronization, -and by introducing the concept of an "use count" variable, the current wording -implies that two shared_ptr instances that share ownership cannot be destroyed -simultaneously. +Change "constructed" to "initialized" in two places in the proposed resolution.

      +Lawrence explained that these signatures match the regular atomics. The +regular atomics must not use references because these signatures are +shared with C. The decision to pass shared_ptrs by pointer rather than +by reference was deliberate and was motivated by the principle of least +surprise. +

      +

      +Lawrence to write wording that requires that the pointers not be null. +

      +

      +

      +The parameter types for atomic shared pointer access +were deliberately chosen to be pointers +to match the corresponding parameters of the atomics chapter. +Those in turn were deliberately chosen +to match C functions, +which do not have reference parameters. +

      +

      +We adopt the second suggestion, +to require that such pointers not be null. +

      +
      -The basic_string extractor in 21.3.7.9, p1 is clearly -required to behave as a formatted input function, as is the -std::getline() overload for string described in p7. +

      -However, the basic_string inserter described in p5 of the -same section has no such requirement. This has implications on how the -operator responds to exceptions thrown from xsputn() -(formatted output functions are required to set badbit -and swallow the exception unless badbit is also set in -exceptions(); the string inserter doesn't have any such -requirement). +

      +Moved to Ready. +
      -

      -

      -I don't see anything in the spec for the string inserter that would -justify requiring it to treat exceptions differently from all other -similar operators.

      -Clause 18.3 of the current Working Paper (N2009) deals with the new C++ headers -<cstdint> and <stdint.h>. These are of course based on the C99 header -<stdint.h>, and were part of TR1. +Edit 30.3.1.5 [thread.thread.member] as indicated:

      +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.

      + + +
      +Looked at this and still intend to close as NAD in March +2010 unless there is proposed wording that we like. +
      +

      [ +2010-02-02 Nicolai M. Josuttis updates proposed wording and adds: +]

      + + +

      -Note that the return type of the cabs*() functions is not a complex -type. Thus, they are equivalent to the already well established - template<class T> T abs(const complex<T>& x); -(26.2.7/2 in ISO/IEC 14882:1998, 26.3.7/2 in the current draft -document n2009.pdf). +I just came across issue #1034 (response to UK 222), +which covers the role of container requirements. +The reason I found this issue was that I am wondering why +array<> is specified to be a sequence container. +For me, currently, this follows from +Sequence containers 23.2.3 [sequence.reqmts] +saying:

      +
      +The library provides five basic kinds of sequence containers: array, +vector, forward_list, list, and deque. while +later on in Table 94 "Sequence container requirements" are defined. +
      +

      -So either the return value of fabs() is specified wrongly, or fabs() -does not behave the same as C99's cabs*(). +IMO, you can hardly argue that this is NAD. +We MUST say somewhere that either array is not a sequence container +or does not provide all operations of a sequence container +(even not all requirements of a container in general). +

      +

      +Here is the number of requirements array<> does not meet +(AFAIK): +

      +

      +general container requirements:

      +
        +
      • +a default constructed array is not empty +
      • +
      • +swap has no constant complexity +
      • +
      -Possible Resolutions +

      + Note also that swap not only has linear complexity + it also invalidates iterators (or to be more precise, + assigns other values to the elements), which + is different from the effect swap has for other containers. + For this reason, I must say that i tend to propose to + remove swap() for arrays. +

      -This depends on the intention behind the introduction of fabs(). +sequence container requirements:

      + +
        +
      • +There is no constructor and assignment for a range +
      • +
      • +There is no constructor and assignment for n copies of t +
      • +
      • + There are no emplace, insert, erase, clear, + assign operations +
      • +
      +

      -If the intention was to provide a /complex/ valued function that -calculates the magnitude of its argument, this should be -explicitly specified. In TR1, the categorization under "C -compatibility" is definitely wrong, since C99 does not provide -such a complex valued function. +In fact, out of all sequence container requirements array<> only +provides the following operations: +from sequence requirements (Table 94):

      +
      X(il);
      +a = il;
      +

      -Also, it remains questionable if such a complex valued function -is really needed, since complex<T> supports construction and -assignment from real valued arguments. There is no difference -in observable behaviour between +and from optional requirements (Table 95):

      -
        complex<double> x, y;
      -  y = fabs(x);
      -  complex<double> z(fabs(x));
      +
      [], at(), front(), back()
       

      -and +This is almost nothing!

      -
        complex<double> x, y;
      -  y = abs(x);
      -  complex<double> z(abs(x));
      +
      +

      +Note in addition, that due to the fact that +array is an aggregate and not a container with +initializer_lists +a construction or assignment with an initializer list is valid +for all sequence containers but not valid for array: +

      + +
      vector<int>  v({1,2,3});   // OK
      +v = {4,5,6};               // OK
      +
      +array<int,3> a({1,2,3});   // Error
      +array<int,3> a = {1,2,3};  // OK
      +a = {4,5,6};               // Error
       
      +

      -If on the other hand the intention was to provide the intended -functionality of C99, fabs() should be either declared deprecated -or (for C++0X) removed from the standard, since the functionality -is already provided by the corresponding overloads of abs(). +BTW, for this reason, I am wondering, why <array> includes +<initializer_list>. +

      + +

      +IMO, we can't really say that array is a sequence container. +array is special. +As the solution to this issue seemed to miss some proposed wording +where all could live with, let me try to suggest some.

      + + +

      [ +2010 Pittsburgh: Ok with move to Ready except for "OPEN:" part. ]

      + + +

      Proposed resolution:

      + +

      In Sequence containers 23.2.3 [sequence.reqmts] modify paragraph 1 as +indicated:

      -Bill believes that abs() is a suitable overload. We should remove fabs(). +

      1 A sequence container organizes a finite set of objects, all of the same + type, into a strictly linear arrangement. The library provides five + four basic kinds of sequence containers: array, + vector, forward_list, list, and deque. + In addition, array is provided as a sequence container that + only provides limited sequence operations because it has a fixed number of + elements. It The library also provides container adaptors that make it easy to + construct abstract data types, such as stacks or queues, out + of the basic sequence container kinds (or out of other kinds of sequence + containers that the user might define).

      +
      +

      Modify paragraph 2 as follows (just editorial):

      +
      +

      2 The five basic sequence + containers offer the programmer different complexity trade-offs and should be + used accordingly. vector or array is the type of sequence + container that should be used by default. list or forward_list + should be used when there are frequent insertions and deletions from the + middle of the sequence. deque is the data structure of choice when + most insertions and deletions take place at the beginning or at the end of the + sequence.

      +
      +

      In Class template array 23.3.1 [array] modify paragraph 3 as indicated: +

      +
      +

      3 Unless otherwise specified, all array operations are as + described in 23.2. An array satisfies all of the requirements of a + container and of a reversible container (given in two tables in 23.2 [container.requirements]) + except that a default constructed array is not empty, swap + does not have constant complexity, and swap may throw exceptions.

      -In testing 27.9.1.4 [filebuf.members], Table 112 (in the latest N2009 draft), we invoke -

      -
         ostr.open("somename", ios_base::out | ios_base::in | ios_base::app)
      -
      -

      -and we expect the open to fail, because out|in|app is not listed in -Table 92, and just before the table we see very specific words: -

      -

      - If mode is not some combination of flags shown in the table - then the open fails. -

      -

      -But the corresponding table in the C standard, 7.19.5.3, provides two -modes "a+" and "a+b", to which the C++ modes out|in|app and -out|in|app|binary would presumably apply. -

      -

      -We would like to argue that the intent of Table 112 was to match the -semantics of 7.19.5.3 and that the omission of "a+" and "a+b" was -unintentional. (Otherwise there would be valid and useful behaviors -available in C file I/O which are unavailable using C++, for no -valid functional reason.) -

      -

      -We further request that the missing modes be explicitly restored to -the WP, for inclusion in C++0x. +Table 84 is missing references to several new container types.

      -...besides "a+" and "a+b" the C++ table is also missing a row -for a lone app bit which in at least two current implementation -as well as in Classic Iostreams corresponds to the C stdio "a" -mode and has been traditionally documented as implying ios::out. -Which means the table should also have a row for in|app meaning -the same thing as "a+" already proposed in the issue. -

      -

      -where XX stands for either 32, 64, or 128, -corresponding to the proper decimal type. The -exact meaning of llrounddXX is not given in that -paper, so I compared it to the corresponding -definition given in C99, 2nd edition (ISO 9899), which says in 7.12.9.7 p. 2: -

      -"The lround and llround functions round their -argument to the nearest integer value, -rounding halfway cases away from zero, regardless -of the current rounding direction. [..]" +Leaving it unspecified whether or not iterator and const_iterator are the +same type is dangerous, as user code may or may not violate the One +Definition Rule by providing overloads for +both types. It is probably too late to specify a single behaviour, but +implementors should document what to expect. Observing that problems can be +avoided by users restricting themselves to using const_iterator, add a note to that effect.

      -Change "3.9.1 Additions to <cwchar> synopsis" to: +The "promised paper" is not in the post-Frankfurt mailing only because I'm waiting +for the non-concepts draft. But I'm hoping that by adding this information here +I can keep people up to date. +

      +forward was originally designed to do one thing: perfect forwarding. +That is, inside a function template whose actual argument can be a const +or non-const lvalue or rvalue, restore the original "rvalue-ness" of the +actual argument:

      -
             namespace std {
      -       namespace decimal {
      -         // 3.9.2 wcstod functions:
      -         decimal32  wcstod32  (const char wchar_t * nptr, char wchar_t ** endptr);
      -         decimal64  wcstod64  (const char wchar_t * nptr, char wchar_t ** endptr);
      -         decimal128 wcstod128 (const char wchar_t * nptr, char wchar_t ** endptr);
      -       }
      -       }
      -
      +
      template <class T>
      +void f(T&& x)
      +{
      +    // x is an lvalue here.  If the actual argument to f was an
      +    // rvalue, pass static_cast<T&&>(x) to g; otherwise, pass x.
      +    g( forward<T>(x) );
      +}
      +
      +

      +Attempting to engineer forward to accomodate uses other than perfect +forwarding dilutes its idiomatic meaning. The solution proposed here +declares that forward<T>(x) means nothing more than static_cast<T&&>(x), +with a patchwork of restrictions on what T and x can be that can't be +expressed in simple English. +

      +

      +I would be happy with either of two approaches, whose code I hope (but +can't guarantee) I got right. +

      Proposed resolution:

      -Change the first paragraph of "3 Decimal floating-point types" as follows: +It would be useful to be able to determine the underlying +type of an arbitrary enumeration type. This would allow +safe casting to an integral type (especially needed for +scoped enums, which do not promote), and would allow +use of numeric_limits. In general it makes generic +programming with enumerations easier.

      -

      -This Technical Report introduces three decimal floating-point types, named -decimal32, decimal64, and decimal128. The set of values of type decimal32 is a -subset of the set of values of type decimal64; the set of values of the type -decimal64 is a subset of the set of values of the type decimal128. Support for -decimal128 is optional. These types supplement the Standard C++ types -float, double, and long double, which are -collectively described as the basic floating types. -

      +Pete observes (and Tom concurs) +that the proposed resolution seems to require compiler support +for its implementation, +as it seems necessary to look at the range of values +of the enumerated type. +To a first approximation, +a library solution could give an answer based on the size of the type. +If the user has specialized numeric_limits for the enumerated type, +then the library might be able to do better, +but there is no such requirement. +Keep status as Open +and solicit input from CWG. +

      -Each of the three classes proposed in the paper (decimal32, decimal64, -and decimal128) explicitly declares and specifies the semantics of its -copy constructor, copy assignment operator, and destructor. Since the -semantics of all three functions are identical to the trivial versions -implicitly generated by the compiler in the absence of any declarations -it is safe to drop them from the spec. This change would make the -proposed classes consistent with other similar classes already in the -standard (e.g., std::complex). -

      -

      -The extended_num_get and extended_num_put facets are designed -to store a reference to a num_get or num_put facet which the -extended facets delegate the parsing and formatting of types -other than decimal. One form of the extended facet's ctor (the -default ctor and the size_t overload) obtains the reference -from the global C++ locale while the other form takes this -reference as an argument. -

      -

      -The problem with storing a reference to a facet in another -object (as opposed to storing the locale object in which the -facet is installed) is that doing so bypasses the reference -counting mechanism designed to prevent a facet that is still -being referenced (i.e., one that is still installed in some -locale) from being destroyed when another locale that contains -it is destroyed. Separating a facet reference from the locale -it comes from van make it cumbersome (and in some cases might -even make it impossible) for programs to prevent invalidating -the reference. (The danger of this design is highlighted in -the paper.) -

      -

      -This problem could be easily avoided by having the extended -facets store a copy of the locale from which they would extract -the base facet either at construction time or when needed. To -make it possible, the forms of ctors of the extended facets that -take a reference to the base facet would need to be changed to -take a locale argument instead. -

      -In Berlin, WG14 decided to drop the <decfloat.h> header. The -contents of that header have been moved into <float.h>. For the -sake of C compatibility, we should make corresponding changes. +The synopsis in 20.8.14.2 [func.wrap.func] says:

      +
      template<Returnable R, CopyConstructible... ArgTypes> 
      +class function<R(ArgTypes...)>
      +{

      +Scoped allocators and allocator propagation traits add a small amount of +utility at the cost of a great deal of machinery. The machinery is user +visible, and it extends to library components that don't have any +obvious connection to allocators, including basic concepts and simple +components like pair and tuple. + +

      Suggested resolution:

      +

      -My suggestion is that implementers of both tr1::function and its -official C++0x successor be explicitly encouraged (but not required) to -optimize for the cases mentioned above, i.e., function pointers and -small function objects. They could do this by using a small internal -buffer akin to the buffer used by implementations of the small string -optimization. (That would make this the small functor optimization -- -SFO :-}) The form of this encouragement could be a note in the standard -akin to footnote 214 of the current standard. +Sketch of proposed resolution: Eliminate scoped allocators, replace +allocator propagation traits with a simple uniform rule (e.g. always +propagate on copy and move), remove all mention of allocators from +components that don't explicitly allocate memory (e.g. pair), and adjust +container interfaces to reflect this simplification.

      -"shall not throw exceptions" should really be "nothing," both to be more -grammatical and to be consistent with existing wording in the standard. +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.

      -

      -Doug Gregor comments: I think this is a good idea. Currently, implementations of -tr1::function are required to have non-throwing constructors and assignment -operators when the target function object is a function pointer or a -reference_wrapper. The common case, however, is for a tr1::function to store -either an empty function object or a member pointer + an object pointer. +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.

      -In the latest available draft standard -(N2134) -§ 17.4.3.6 [res.on.functions] states: +The requirement AllocatableElement should not be replaced with +Constructible on the emplace_xxx() functions as suggested. In the +one-parameter case the Constructible requirement is not satisfied when +the constructor is explicit (as per [concept.map.fct], twelfth +bullet) but we do want to allow explicit constructors in emplace, as the +following example shows:

      -
      +
      vector<shared_ptr<int>> v;
      +v.emplace_back(new int); // should be allowed
      +
      +

      --1- In certain cases (replacement functions, handler functions, operations on -types used to instantiate standard library template components), the C++ -Standard Library depends on components supplied by a C++ program. If these -components do not meet their requirements, the Standard places no requirements -on the implementation. +If the issue is accepted and scoped allocators are removed, I suggest to +add a new pair of concepts to [concept.construct], namely:

      +
      auto concept HasExplicitConstructor<typename T, typename... Args> {
      + explicit T::T(Args...);
      +}
      +
      +auto concept ExplicitConstructible<typename T, typename... Args>
      + : HasExplicitConstructor<T, Args...>, NothrowDestructible<T>
      +{ }
      +
      +

      --2- In particular, the effects are undefined in the following cases: +We should then use ExplicitConstructible as the requirement for all +emplace_xxx() member functions.

      -[...] +For coherence and consistency with the similar concepts +Convertible/ExplicitlyConvertible, we might also consider changing +Constructible to:

      -
        -
      • if an incomplete type (3.9) is used as a template argument when -instantiating a template component.
      • -
      -
      -

      -This is contradicted by § 20.6.6.2/2 [util.smartptr.shared] which -states: -

      +
      auto concept Constructible<typename T, typename... Args>
      + : HasConstructor<T, Args...>, ExplicitConstructible<T, Args...>
      +{ }
      +
      -

      -[...] +Moreover, all emplace-related concepts in [container.concepts] +should also use ExplicitConstructible instead of Constructible in the +definitions of their axioms. In fact the concepts in [container.concepts] should be +corrected even if the issue is not accepted.

      -

      -The template parameter T of shared_ptr may be an incomplete type. +On the other hand, if the issue is not accepted, the scoped allocator +adaptors should be fixed because the following code:

      -
      +
      template <typename T> using scoped_allocator = scoped_allocator_adaptor<allocator<T>>;

        1. +there are new arguments in both comments regarding concepts (which were +not present in the library when the scoped allocator proposal was voted +in), +

        3. +the vote was clearly not a consensus for removal, but just saying there +was a vote does not provide a rationale, +

        +

        +My motivation to open the issue was to ensure that the NB comments were +adequately addressed in a way that would not risk a "no" vote on our +FCD. If there are responses to the technical concerns raised, then +perhaps they should be recorded. If the members of the NB who authored +the comments are satisfied with N2840 and the other disposition remarks +in the comment list, then I am sure they will say so. In either case, +this issue can be closed very quickly in Frankfurt, and hopefully will +have helped make us more confident of approval with little effort.

      5. +It can throw an exception. +

      3. Ends program.
      4. +
      5. Throws exception.
      6. +

      -The computed and "fill" assignment operators of valarray -helper array class templates (slice_array, -gslice_array, mask_array, and -indirect_array) are const member functions of each class -template (the latter by the resolution of 123 -since they have reference semantics and thus do not affect -the state of the object on which they are called. However, the copy -assignment operators of these class templates, which also have -reference semantics, are non-const. The absence of constness opens -the door to speculation about whether they really are intended to have -reference semantics (existing implementations vary widely). +

      Discussion:

      -

      - -basic_filebuf dtor is specified to have the following -straightforward effects: - -

      -

      - -Effects: Destroys an object of class -basic_filebuf. Calls close(). - -

      -

      - -close() does a lot of potentially complicated processing, -including calling overflow() to write out the termination -sequence (to bring the output sequence to its initial shift -state). Since any of the functions called during the processing can -throw an exception, what should the effects of an exception be on the -dtor? Should the dtor catch and swallow it or should it propagate it -to the caller? The text doesn't seem to provide any guidance in this -regard other than the general restriction on throwing (but not -propagating) exceptions from destructors of library classes in -17.6.4.11 [res.on.exception.handling]. - -

      -

      - -Further, the last thing close() is specified to do is -call fclose() to close the FILE pointer. The -last sentence of the Effects clause reads: - -

      -

      - -... If any of the calls to overflow or -std::fclose fails then close fails. - -

      -

      - -This suggests that close() might be required to call -fclose() if and only if none of the calls to -overflow() fails, and avoid closing the FILE -otherwise. This way, if overflow() failed to flush out -the data, the caller would have the opportunity to try to flush it -again (perhaps after trying to deal with whatever problem may have -caused the failure), rather than losing it outright. - -

      -

      +

      Addresses JP 65 and JP 66

      -On the other hand, the function's Postcondition specifies that -is_open() == false, which suggests that it should call -fclose() unconditionally. However, since -Postcondition clauses are specified for many functions in the -standard, including constructors where they obviously cannot apply -after an exception, it's not clear whether this Postcondition -clause is intended to apply even after an exception. +

      +Switch from "unspecified-bool-type" to "explicit operator bool() const". +

      -

      -

      +

      +Replace operator unspecified-bool-type() const;" with explicit operator bool() const; +

      -It might be worth noting that the traditional behavior (Classic -Iostreams fstream::close() and C fclose()) -is to close the FILE unconditionally, regardless of -errors. +

      - -After discussing this on the reflector (see the thread starting with -c++std-lib-17650) we propose that close() be clarified to -match the traditional behavior, that is to close the FILE -unconditionally, even after errors or exceptions.

      -Effects: If is_open() == false, returns a null -pointer. If a put area exists, calls -overflow(traits::eof()) to flush characters. If the last -virtual member function called on *this (between -underflow, overflow, seekoff, -and seekpos) was overflow then calls -a_codecvt.unshift (possibly several times) to determine a -termination sequence, inserts those characters and calls -overflow(traits::eof()) again. Finally, regardless -of whether any of the preceding calls fails or throws an exception, -the function it closes the file ("as if" by calling -std::fclose(file)).334) If any of the calls -made by the functionto overflow -or, including std::fclose, -fails then close fails by returning a null pointer. -If one of these calls throws an exception, the exception is caught and -rethrown after closing the file. +

      +[Note: This conversion can be used in contexts where a bool is expected +(e.g., an if condition); however, implicit conversions (e.g., +to int) that can occur with bool are not allowed, +eliminating some sources of user error.

      -Quoting from Section 3.4, Assignment operators, of Al Vermeulen's -Proposal for Standard C++ Array Classes (see c++std-lib-704; -N0308): +The correct term here is "header", not "header file". But that's minor. The real +problem is that library entities are always defined in headers. If +__STDCPP_THREADS is defined without including any header it's part of +the language and belongs with the other predefined macros in the Preprocessor +clause.

      -

      - ...if the size of the array on the right hand side of the equal - sign differs from the size of the array on the left, a run time - error occurs. How this error is handled is implementation - dependent; for compilers which support it, throwing an exception - would be reasonable. -

      Discussion:

      -

      - -Section 26.2 [numeric.requirements], p1 suggests that a -valarray specialization on a type T that -satisfies the requirements enumerated in the paragraph is itself a -valid type on which valarray may be instantiated -(Footnote 269 makes this clear). I.e., -valarray<valarray<T> > is valid as long as -T is valid. However, since implementations of -valarray are permitted to initialize storage allocated by -the class by invoking the default ctor of T followed by -the copy assignment operator, such implementations of -valarray wouldn't work with (perhaps user-defined) -specializations of valarray whose assignment operator had -undefined behavior when the size of its argument didn't match the size -of *this. By "wouldn't work" I mean that it would -be impossible to resize such an array of arrays by calling the -resize() member function on it if the function used the -copy assignment operator after constructing all elements using the -default ctor (e.g., by invoking new value_type[N]) to -obtain default-initialized storage) as it's permitted to do. - -

      -

      +

      +Message c++std-lib-23182 led to a discussion in which several people +expressed interest in being able to convert an auto_ptr to a +unique_ptr without the need to call release. Below is +wording to accomplish this. +

      -Stated more generally, the problem is that -valarray<valarray<T> >::resize(size_t) isn't -required or guaranteed to have well-defined semantics for every type -T that satisfies all requirements in -26.2 [numeric.requirements]. +

      +Pete believes it not a good idea to separate parts of a class's definition. +Therefore, if we do this, +it should be part of unique-ptr's specification. +

      +

      +Alisdair believes the lvalue overload may be not necessary. +

      +Marc believes it is more than just sugar, +as it does ease the transition to unique-ptr. +

      +We agree with the resolution as presented. +Move to Tentatively Ready. +

      +
      -I believe this problem was introduced by the adoption of the -resolution outlined in N0857, -Assignment of valarrays, from 1996. The copy assignment -operator of the original numerical array classes proposed in N0280, -as well as the one proposed in N0308 -(both from 1993), had well-defined semantics for arrays of unequal -size (the latter explicitly only when *this was empty; -assignment of non empty arrays of unequal size was a runtime error). +

      -The justification for the change given in N0857 was the "loss of -performance [deemed] only significant for very simple operations on -small arrays or for architectures with very few registers." +

      +Moved from Tentatively Ready to Open only because the wording needs to be +tweaked for concepts removal. +

      [ +2009-08-01 Howard deconceptifies wording: +]

      -Since tiny arrays on a limited subset of hardware architectures are -likely to be an exceedingly rare case (despite the continued -popularity of x86) I propose to revert the resolution and make the -behavior of all valarray assignment operators -well-defined even for non-conformal arrays (i.e., arrays of unequal -size). I have implemented this change and measured no significant -degradation in performance in the common case (non-empty arrays of -equal size). I have measured a 50% (and in some cases even greater) -speedup in the case of assignments to empty arrays versus calling -resize() first followed by an invocation of the copy -assignment operator. -

      -And add a new paragraph just below paragraph 1 with the following -text: +

      +The way the constructor postconditions are set up now, to achieve both +conformance, and the desired intent in the what() string, the +system_error constructor must store "In FooBar" in the base class, +and then form the desired output each time what() is called. Or +alternatively, store "In FooBar" in the base class, and store the desired +what() string in the derived system_error, and override +what() to return the string in the derived part. +

      +Both of the above implementations seem suboptimal to me. In one I'm computing +a new string every time what() is called. And since what() +can't propagate exceptions, the client may get a different string on different +calls. +

      -20.8.8.1 [allocator.members] defines CopyConstructible which currently not -only defines the semantics of copy construction, but also restricts what an overloaded -operator& may do. I believe proposals are in the works (such as concepts -and rvalue reference) to decouple these two requirements. Indeed it is not evident -that we should disallow overloading operator& to return something other -than the address of *this. +In 27.5.2.1.1 [ios::failure], change the synopsis:

      -

      -An example of when you want to overload operator& to return something -other than the object's address is proxy references such as vector<bool> -(or its replacement, currently code-named bit_vector). Taking the address of -such a proxy reference should logically yield a proxy pointer, which when dereferenced, -yields a copy of the original proxy reference again. -

      +    virtual const char* what() const throw();
      +  }; 
      +}
      +

      -On the other hand, some code truly needs the address of an object, and not a proxy -(typically for determining the identity of an object compared to a reference object). -boost has long recognized this dilemma and solved it with -boost::addressof. -It appears to me that this would be useful functionality for the default allocator. Adopting -this definition for allocator::address would free the standard of requiring -anything special from types which overload operator&.

      Discussion:

      -Greg Herlihy has clearly demonstrated that a user defined input -iterator should have an operator->(), even if its -value type is a built-in type (comp.std.c++, "Re: Should any iterator -have an operator->() in C++0x?", March 2007). And as Howard -Hinnant remarked in the same thread that the input iterator -istreambuf_iterator doesn't have one, this must be a -defect! +In 853 our resolution is changing the signature by adding two +defaulting arguments to 3 calls. In principle, this means that ABI breakage +is not an issue, while API is preserved.

      -Based on Greg's example, the following code demonstrates the issue: -

       #include <iostream> 
      - #include <fstream>
      - #include <streambuf> 
      +With that observation, it would be very nice to use the new ability to
      +supply default template parameters to function templates to collapse all 3
      +signatures into 1.  In that spirit, this issue offers an alternative resolution
      +than that of 853.
      +

      - typedef char C; - int main () - { - std::ifstream s("filename", std::ios::in); - std::istreambuf_iterator<char> i(s); +

      - (*i).~C(); // This is well-formed... - i->~C(); // ... so this should be supported! - } -

      -

      -AFAIK, the resolution of 445 ("iterator_traits::reference -unspecified for some iterator categories") implies that for any iterator -class Iter, the return type of operator->() is Iter::pointer, by -definition.

I think it's up to the library -implementation, how to implement istreambuf_iterator::operator->(). As -longs as it behaves as expected: i->m should have the same effect as -(*i).m.

      -

      Section 20.7 [function.objects] provides function -objects for some unary and binary -operations, but others are missing. In a LWG reflector discussion, beginning -with c++std-lib-18078, pros and cons of adding some of the missing operations -were discussed. Bjarne Stroustrup commented "Why standardize what isn't used? -Yes, I see the chicken and egg problems here, but it would be nice to see a -couple of genuine uses before making additions."

      -

      A number of libraries, including Rogue Wave, GNU, Adobe ASL, and Boost, have -already added these functions, either publicly or for internal use. For example, -Doug Gregor commented: "Boost will also add ... (|, &, ^) in 1.35.0, because we -need those function -objects to represent various parallel -collective operations (reductions, prefix reductions, etc.) in the new Message -Passing Interface (MPI) library."

      -

      Because the bitwise operators have the strongest use cases, the proposed -resolution is limited to them.

      +

      +The copy constructor for the tuple template is constrained. This seems an +unusual strategy, as the copy constructor will be implicitly deleted if the +constraints are not met. This is exactly the same effect as requesting an +=default; constructor. The advantage of the latter is that it retains +triviality, and provides support for tuples as literal types if issue +1116 is also accepted. +

      +

      +Actually, it might be worth checking with core if a constrained copy +constructor is treated as a constructor template, and as such does not +suppress the implicit generation of the copy constructor which would hide +the template in this case. +

      -To the more drastic changes of 27.7.1.2.2 [istream.formatted.arithmetic] in the current draft N2134 belong -the explicit description of the extraction of the types short and int in -terms of as-if code fragments. +The APIs tuple_size and tuple_element do not support +cv-qualified tuples, pairs or arrays. +

      +

      +The most generic solution would be to supply partial specializations once +for each cv-type in the tuple header. However, requiring this header for +cv-qualified pairs/arrays seems unhelpful. The BSI editorial +suggestion (UK-198/US-69, +N2533) +to merge tuple into <utility> would help with pair, +but not array. That might be resolved by making a dependency between the +<array> header and <utility>, or simply recognising +the dependency be fulfilled in a Remark.

        +

        +"metafunction forwarding" refers to the MPL metafunction protocol, where a +metafunction result is declared as a nested typedef with the name "type", +allowing metafunctions to be chained by means of inheritance. It is a +neater syntax than repeatedly declaring a typedef, and inheritance syntax is +slightly nicer when it comes to additional typename keywords. +

        +The below given P/R reflects the discussion from the Rapperswil meeting that the wording should not constrain +implementation freedom to realize the actual issue target. Thus the original code form was replaced by +normative words. +

        +

        +While preparing this wording it turned out that several tuple_size specializations as +that of pair and array are underspecified, because the underlying type of the member +value is not specified except that it is an integral type. For the specializations we could introduce a +canonical one - like size_t - or we could use the same type as the specialization of the +unqualified type uses. The following wording follows the second approach. +

        +The wording refers to N3126. +

        +

        Discussion:

        +

        +As currently formulated, the standard doesn't require that there +is ever a flush of cout, etc. (This implies, for example, that +the classical hello, world program may have no output.) In the +current draft +(N2798), +there is a requirement that the objects +be constructed before main, and before the dynamic +initialization of any non-local objects defined after the +inclusion of <iostream> in the same translation unit. The only +requirement that I can find concerning flushing, however, is in +27.5.2.1.6 [ios::Init], where the destructor of the last +std::ios_base::Init object flushes. But there is, as far as I +can see, no guarantee that such an object ever exists. +

        +

        +Also, the wording in [iostreams.objects] says that: +

        +
        +The objects +are constructed and the associations are established at some +time prior to or during the first time an object of class +ios_base::Init is constructed, and in any case before the body +of main begins execution. +

        -[Plum ref _222152Y50] +In 27.5.2.1.6 [ios::Init], however, as an +effect of the constructor, it says that

        +
        +If init_cnt is zero, +the function stores the value one in init_cnt, then constructs +and initializes the objects cin, cout, cerr, clog +wcin, wcout, wcerr, and wclog" +
        - -

        Proposed resolution:

        -Change 22.4.1.4.2 [locale.codecvt.virtuals], p7: +which seems to forbid earlier +construction.

        -

        -Effects: Places characters starting at to that should be -appended to terminate a sequence when the current stateT is -given by state.237) Stores no more than (to_limit -to) -destination elements, and leaves the to_next pointer pointing one -beyond the last element successfully stored. codecvt<char, char, -mbstate_t> stores no characters. +(Note that with these changes, the exposition only "static +int init_cnt" in ios_base::Init can be dropped.) +

        +

        +Of course, a determined programmer can still inhibit the +flush with things like: +

        +
        new std::ios_base::Init ;       //  never deleted 
        +
        +

        +or (in a function): +

        +
        std::ios_base::Init ensureConstruction ; 
        +//  ... 
        +exit( EXIT_SUCCESS ) ; 
        +
        +

        +Perhaps some words somewhere to the effect that all +std::ios_base::Init objects should have static lifetime +would be in order.

Scott Meyers raised this +issue at comp.std.c++, +C++0x: alignof vs. alignment_of, +May 21, 2009.

      +IIUC, +N2844 +means that lvalues will no longer bind to rvalue references. +Therefore, the current specification of list::splice (list +operations 23.3.4.4 [list.ops]) will be a breaking change of behaviour for existing +programs.

    -N1856 does not propose -any changes to shared_ptr. It needs to be updated to use a rvalue reference where appropriate -and to interoperate with unique_ptr as it does with auto_ptr. +As of +N2857 +18.8.5 [propagation]/5, the implementation-defined type +exception_ptr does provide the following ways to check whether +it is a null value: +

    +  p == 0;
    +  p == exception_ptr();

    +
    +

    +This is rather cumbersome way of checking for the null value +and I suggest to require support for evaluation in a boolean +context like so:

    -Change 20.8.15.2.3 [util.smartptr.shared.assign] as follows: +It was recently mentioned in a newsgroup article +http://groups.google.de/group/comp.std.c++/msg/f82022aff68edf3d +that the specification of the member function rethrow_nested() of the +class nested_exception is incomplete, specifically it remains unclear +what happens, if member nested_ptr() returns a null value.

    Discussion:

    -James Hopkin pointed out to me that if vector<T> move assignment is O(1) -(just a swap) then containers such as vector<shared_ptr<ostream>> might have -the wrong semantics under move assignment when the source is not truly an rvalue, but a -moved-from lvalue (destructors could run late). +In clause 1, the Working Draft +(N2857) +specifies overloads of the +functions

    - -
    vector<shared_ptr<ostream>> v1;
    -vector<shared_ptr<ostream>> v2;
    -...
    -v1 = v2;               // #1
    -v1 = std::move(v2);    // #2
    +
    arg, conj, imag, norm, proj, real
     
    -

    -Move semantics means not caring what happens to the source (v2 in this example). -It doesn't mean not caring what happens to the target (v1). In the above example -both assignments should have the same effect on v1. Any non-shared ostream's -v1 owns before the assignment should be closed, whether v1 is undergoing -copy assignment or move assignment. +for non-complex arithmetic types (float, double, +long double, and integers). +The only requirement (clause 2) specifies effective type promotion of arguments.

    -

    -This implies that the semantics of move assignment of a generic container should be -clear, swap instead of just swap. An alternative which could achieve the same -effect would be to move assign each element. In either case, the complexity of move -assignment needs to be relaxed to O(v1.size()). +I strongly suggest to add the following requirement on the return types:

    +
    +All the specified overloads must return real (i.e., non-complex) values, +specifically, the nested value_type of effectively promoted arguments. +

    -The performance hit of this change is not nearly as drastic as it sounds. -In practice, the target of a move assignment has always just been move constructed -or move assigned from. Therefore under clear, swap semantics (in -this common use case) we are still achieving O(1) complexity. +(This has no effect on arg, imag, norm, real: +they are real-valued anyway.) +

    +

    Rationale:

    +

    +Mathematically, conj() and proj(), like the transcendental functions, are +complex-valued in general but map the (extended) real line to itself. +In fact, both functions act as identity on the reals. +A typical user will expect conj() and proj() to preserve this essential +mathematical property in the same way as exp(), sin(), etc. +A typical use of conj(), e.g., is the generic scalar product of n-vectors: +

    + +
    template<typename T>
    +inline T
    +scalar_product(size_t n, T const* x, T const* y) {
    +  T result = 0;
    +  for (size_t i = 0; i < n; ++i)
    +    result += x[i] * std::conj(y[i]);
    +  return result;
    +}
    +
    +

    +This will work equally well for real and complex floating-point types T if +conj() returns T. It will not work with real types if conj() +returns complex values.

    +

    +Instead, the implementation of scalar_product becomes either less efficient +and less useful (if a complex result is always returned), or unnecessarily +complicated (if overloaded versions with proper return types are defined). +In the second case, the real-argument overload of conj() cannot be used. +In fact, it must be avoided. +

    +

    +Overloaded conj() and proj() are principally needed in generic programming. +All such use cases will benefit from the proposed return type requirement, +in a similar way as the scalar_product example. +The requirement will not harm use cases where a complex return value +is expected, because of implicit conversion to complex. +Without the proposed return type guarantee, I find overloaded versions +of conj() and proj() not only useless but actually troublesome. +

    -The current algorithm for seed_seq::randomize is adapted by me from the -initialization procedure for the Mersenne Twister by Makoto Matsumoto -and Takuji Nishimura.

    -The proposed replacement for seed_seq::randomize is due to Mutsuo Saito, -a student of Matsumoto, and is given in the implementation of the -SIMD-oriented Fast Mersenne Twister random number generator SFMT. -http://www.math.sci.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~m-mat/MT/SFMT/index.html -http://www.math.sci.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/~m-mat/MT/SFMT/SFMT-src-1.2.tar.gz +Move to Ready.

    Description

    +

    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?

    +

    Notes

    +

    We accept the proposed solution. Martin will draft an issue.

    + +

    [ +2009-07-28 Alisdair provided wording. +]

    + + +

    [ +2009-10 Santa Cruz: +]

    -

    -This fact has been discussed / debated repeatedly over the years, the first time -being even before C++98 was ratified. The rationale for passing this parameter by -value has been: -

    -

    -So that self referencing statements are guaranteed to work, for example: -

    -
    v.resize(v.size() + 1, v[0]);
    -
    +Moved to Ready.
    -

    -However this rationale is not convincing as the signature for push_back is: -

    -
    void push_back(const T& x);
    -
    +

    Proposed resolution:

    -And push_back has similar semantics to resize (append). -And push_back must also work in the self referencing case: +17.6.3.2.1 [namespace.std]

    - -
    v.push_back(v[0]);  // must work
    -
    -

    -The problem with passing T by value is that it can be significantly more -expensive than passing by reference. The converse is also true, however when it is -true it is usually far less dramatic (e.g. for scalar types). +Strike "of external linkage" in p1 and p2:

    +

    -Even with move semantics available, passing this parameter by value can be expensive. -Consider for example vector<vector<int>>: +-1- The behavior of a C++ program is undefined if it adds declarations or +definitions to namespace std or to a namespace within namespace std +unless otherwise specified. A program may add a concept map for any +standard library concept or a template specialization for any standard +library template to namespace std only if the declaration depends on a +user-defined type of external linkage and the specialization meets the +standard library requirements for the original template and is not +explicitly prohibited.179

    -
    std::vector<int> x(1000);
    -std::vector<std::vector<int>> v;
    -...
    -v.resize(v.size()+1, x);
    -
    -

    -In the pass-by-value case, x is copied once to the parameter of -resize. And then internally, since the code can not know at compile -time by how much resize is growing the vector, x is -usually copied (not moved) a second time from resize's parameter into its proper place -within the vector. +-2- The behavior of a C++ program is undefined if it declares

    - +
      +
    • +an explicit specialization of any member function of a standard library +class template, or +
    • +
    • +an explicit specialization of any member function template of a standard +library class or class template, or +
    • +
    • +an explicit or partial specialization of any member class template of a +standard library class or class template. +
    • +

    -With pass-by-const-reference, the x in the above example need be copied -only once. In this case, x has an expensive copy constructor and so any -copies that can be saved represents a significant savings. +A program may explicitly instantiate a template defined in the standard +library only if the declaration depends on the name of a user-defined +type of external linkage and the instantiation meets the standard +library requirements for the original template.

    +
    -

    -If we can be efficient for push_back, we should be efficient for resize -as well. The resize taking a reference parameter has been coded and shipped in the -CodeWarrior library with no reports of problems which I am aware of. -

    UK 327 Description

    +

    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.

    + +

    UK 327 Suggestion

    +

    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.

    +

    UK 327 Notes

    +

    Create an issue. Assigned to Lawrence Crowl. Note: not sure what try_lock + means for recursive locks when you are the owner. POSIX has language on + this, which should ideally be followed. Proposed fix is not quite right, for + example, try_lock should have different wording from lock.

    -In 28.9.2 [re.submatch.op] of N2284, -operator functions numbered 31-42 seem impossible to compare. E.g.: +Modify 30.4.2.2.2 [thread.lock.unique.locking] p18 to say:

    -
    template <class BiIter>
    -   bool operator==(typename iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type const& lhs,
    -                    const sub_match<BiIter>& rhs);
    -
    +
    template <class Rep, class Period>
    +  bool try_lock_for(const chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& rel_time);
    +

    ...

    --31- Returns: lhs == rhs.str(). +18 Throws: Any exception thrown by pm->try_lock_for(). +std::system_error if an exception is required (30.2.2 [thread.req.exception]). +std::system_error with an error condition of +operation_not_permitted if pm is 0. +std::system_error with an error condition of +resource_deadlock_would_occur if on entry owns is true. +std::system_error when the +postcondition cannot be achieved.

    -When char* is used as BiIter, iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type would be -char, so that lhs == rhs.str() ends up comparing a char value and an object -of std::basic_string<char>. However, the behaviour of comparison between -these two types is not defined in 21.4.8 [string.nonmembers] of N2284. - This applies when wchar_t* is used as BiIter. +Remove 30.4.2.2.2 [thread.lock.unique.locking] p19 (Error condition clause).

    1170. String char-like types no longer PODs

    Addresses UK 218

    + +

    Prior to the introduction of constant expressions into the library, +basic_string elements had to be POD types, and thus had to be both trivially +copyable and standard-layout. This ensured that they could be memcpy'ed and +would be compatible with other libraries and languages, particularly the C +language and its library.

    +

    +N2349, +Constant Expressions in the Standard Library Revision 2, changed the +requirement in 21/1 from "POD type" to "literal type". That change had the +effect of removing the trivially copyable and standard-layout requirements from +basic_string elements.

    +

    This means that basic_string elements no longer are guaranteed to be +memcpy'able, and are no longer guaranteed to be standard-layout types:

    +
    +

    3.9/p2 and 3.9/p3 both make it clear that a "trivially copyable type" is + required for memcpy to be guaranteed to work.

    +

    Literal types (3.9p12) may have a non-trivial copy assignment operator, and + that violates the trivially copyable requirements given in 9/p 6, bullet item + 2.

    +

    Literal types (3.9p12) have no standard-layout requirement, either.

    +
    +

    This situation probably arose because the wording for "Constant Expressions +in the Standard Library" was in process at the same time the C++ POD +deconstruction wording was in process.

    +

    Since trivially copyable types meet the C++0x requirements for literal types, +and thus work with constant expressions, it seems an easy fix to revert the +basic_string element wording to its original state.

    + +

    [ + 2009-07-28 Alisdair adds: + ]

    + + +
    +When looking for any resolution for this issue, consider the definition of +"character container type" in 17.3.5 [defns.character.container]. This +does require the character type to be a POD, and this term is used in a +number of places through clause 21 and 28. This suggests the PODness +constraint remains, but is much more subtle than before. Meanwhile, I +suspect the change from POD type to literal type was intentional with +the assumption that trivially copyable types with +non-trivial-but-constexpr constructors should serve as well. I don't +believe the current wording offers the right guarantees for either of +the above designs. +

    +
    +

    This Clause describes components for manipulating sequences of any +literal non-array POD (3.9) type. In this Clause +such types are called char-like types, and objects of char-like +types are called char-like objects or simply +characters.

    -In C++03 the difference between two reverse_iterators -

    -
    ri1 - ri2

    -

    -is possible to compute only if both iterators have the same base -iterator. The result type is the difference_type of the base iterator. -

    Discussion:

    -In a private email Bill Plauger notes: -

    -

    -I believe that the function that implements get_money -[from N2072] -should behave as a formatted input function, and the function that -implements put_money should behave as a formatted output -function. This has implications regarding the skipping of whitespace -and the handling of errors, among other things. -

    -

    -The words don't say that right now and I'm far from convinced that -such a change is editorial. -

    -

    -Martin's response: -

    -

    -I agree that the manipulators should handle exceptions the same way as -formatted I/O functions do. The text in N2072 assumes so but the -Returns clause explicitly omits exception handling for the sake -of brevity. The spec should be clarified to that effect. +See Frankfurt notes of 1001.

    -

    -As for dealing with whitespace, I also agree it would make sense for -the extractors and inserters involving the new manipulators to treat -it the same way as formatted I/O. -

    Proposed resolution:

    +

    Change 17.6.4.2 [res.on.headers], Headers, paragraph 1, as indicated:

    + +
    +

    -Add a new paragraph immediately above p4 of 27.7.4 [ext.manip] with the -following text: -

    -

    -Effects: The expression in >> get_money(mon, intl) -described below behaves as a formatted input function (as -described in 27.7.1.2.1 [istream.formatted.reqmts]). -

    -

    -Also change p4 of 27.7.4 [ext.manip] as follows: +A C++ header may include other C++ +headers.[footnote] A C++ header shall provide +the declarations and definitions that appear in its synopsis +(3.2 [basic.def.odr]). A C++ header shown in its synopsis as including +other C++ headers shall provide the declarations and definitions that appear in +the synopses of those other headers.

    -

    -Returns: An object s of unspecified type such that -if in is an object of type basic_istream<charT, -traits> then the expression in >> get_money(mon, intl) behaves as a formatted input function -that calls f(in, mon, intl) were -called. The function f can be defined as... -

    [ -post Bellevue: -]

    +

    [footnote] C++ headers must include a C++ header that contains + any needed definition (3.2).

    +
    -
    -We recommend moving immediately to Review. We've looked at the issue and -have a consensus that the proposed resolution is correct, but want an -iostream expert to sign off.

    Discussion:

    -The bitset class template provides the member function -any() to determine whether an object of the type has any -bits set, and the member function none() to determine -whether all of an object's bits are clear. However, the template does -not provide a corresponding function to discover whether a -bitset object has all its bits set. While it is -possible, even easy, to obtain this information by comparing the -result of count() with the result of size() -for equality (i.e., via b.count() == b.size()) the -operation is less efficient than a member function designed -specifically for that purpose could be. (count() must -count all non-zero bits in a bitset a word at a time -while all() could stop counting as soon as it encountered -the first word with a zero bit). +The definition of class template sub_match is strongly dependent +on the type basic_string<value_type>, both in interface and effects, +but does not provide a corresponding typedef string_type, as e.g. +class match_results does, which looks like an oversight to me that +should be fixed.

    -Objects of the bitset class template specializations can -be constructed from and explicitly converted to values of the widest -C++ integer type, unsigned long.

    -For simplicity, instead of adding overloads for unsigned long -long and dealing with possible ambiguities in the spec, replace -the bitset ctor that takes an unsigned long -argument with one taking unsigned long long in the -definition of the template as shown below.

    Discussion:

    -Additionally, introduce a new member function to_ullong() -to make it possible to convert bitset to values of the -new type. Add the following declaration to the definition of the -template, immediate after the declaration of to_ulong() -in 20.3.7 [template.bitset], p1, as shown below: -

    -
    -
    // element access:
    -bool operator[](size_t pos) const; // for b[i];
    -reference operator[](size_t pos); // for b[i];
    -unsigned long to_ulong() const;
    -unsigned long long to_ullong() const;
    -template <class charT, class traits, class Allocator>
    -basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator> to_string() const;
    -
    -
    -

    -And add a description of the new member function to 20.3.7.2 [bitset.members], -below the description of the existing to_ulong() (if -possible), with the following text: -

    -
    -

    -unsigned long long to_ullong() const; +Several heterogeneous comparison operators of class template +sub_match are specified by return clauses that are not valid +in general. E.g. 28.9.2 [re.submatch.op]/7:

    + +
    template <class BiIter, class ST, class SA>
    +bool operator==(
    +  const basic_string<
    +    typename iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type, ST, SA>& lhs,
    +  const sub_match<BiIter>& rhs);
    +
    -Throws: overflow_error if the integral value -x corresponding to the bits in *this -cannot be represented as type unsigned long long. -
    -
    -Returns: x. +Returns: lhs == rhs.str().
    +

    +The returns clause would be ill-formed for all cases where +ST != std::char_traits<iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type> +or SA != std::allocator<iterator_traits<BiIter>::value_type>. +

    +

    +The generic character of the comparison was intended, so +there are basically two approaches to fix the problem: The +first one would define the semantics of the comparison +using the traits class ST (The semantic of basic_string::compare +is defined in terms of the compare function of the corresponding +traits class), the second one would define the semantics of the +comparison using the traits class +

    Discussion:

    -The ctype<char>::classic_table() static member -function returns a pointer to an array of const -ctype_base::mask objects (enums) that contains -ctype<char>::table_size elements. The table -describes the properties of the character set in the "C" locale (i.e., -whether a character at an index given by its value is alpha, digit, -punct, etc.), and is typically used to initialize the -ctype<char> facet in the classic "C" locale (the -protected ctype<char> member function -table() then returns the same value as -classic_table()). +which is essentially identical to

    + +
    std::char_traits<sub_match<BiIter>::value_type>
    +
    +

    -However, while ctype<char>::table_size (the size of -the table) is a public static const member of the -ctype<char> specialization, the -classic_table() static member function is protected. That -makes getting at the classic data less than convenient (i.e., one has -to create a whole derived class just to get at the masks array). It -makes little sense to expose the size of the table in the public -interface while making the table itself protected, especially when the -table is a constant object. +I suggest to follow the second approach, because +this emphasizes the central role of the sub_match +object as part of the comparison and would also +make sure that a sub_match comparison using some +basic_string<char_t, ..> always is equivalent to +a corresponding comparison with a string literal +because of the existence of further overloads (beginning +from 28.9.2 [re.submatch.op]/19). If users really want to +take advantage of their own traits::compare, they can +simply write a corresponding compare function that +does so.

    + +

    [ +Post-Rapperswil +]

    + +

    -The same argument can be made for the non-static protected member -function table(). +The following update is a result of the discussion during the Rapperswil meeting, the P/R expresses all comparisons by +delegating to sub_match's compare functions. The processing is rather mechanical: Only == and < +where defined by referring to sub_match's compare function, all remaining ones where replaced by the canonical +definitions in terms of these two.

    +
    +Moved to Tentatively Ready after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib. +
    + +

    [ +Adopted at 2010-11 Batavia +]

    + + +

    Proposed resolution:

    -Make the ctype<char>::classic_table() and -ctype<char>::table() member functions public by -moving their declarations into the public section of the definition of -specialization in 22.4.1.3 [facet.ctype.special] as shown below: +The wording refers to N3126.

    -From message c++std-lib-17897: -

    -

    -The code shown in 27.7.1.2.2 [istream.formatted.arithmetic] as the "as if" -implementation of the two arithmetic extractors that don't have a -corresponding num_get interface (i.e., the -short and int overloads) is subtly buggy in -how it deals with EOF, overflow, and other similar -conditions (in addition to containing a few typos). -

    -

    -One problem is that if num_get::get() reaches the EOF -after reading in an otherwise valid value that exceeds the limits of -the narrower type (but not LONG_MIN or -LONG_MAX), it will set err to -eofbit. Because of the if condition testing for -(err == 0), the extractor won't set -failbit (and presumably, return a bogus value to the -caller). +The implied library dependencies created by spelling out all the hash +template specializations in the <functional> synopsis are unfortunate. +The potential coupling is greatly reduced if the hash specialization is +declared in the appropriate header for each library type, as it is much +simpler to forward declare the primary template and provide a single +specialization than it is to implement a hash function for a string or +vector without providing a definition for the whole string/vector +template in order to access the necessary bits.

    +

    -Another problem with the code is that it never actually sets the -argument to the extracted value. It can't happen after the call to -setstate() since the function may throw, so we need to -show when and how it's done (we can't just punt as say: "it happens -afterwards"). However, it turns out that showing how it's done isn't -quite so easy since the argument is normally left unchanged by the -facet on error except when the error is due to a misplaced thousands -separator, which causes failbit to be set but doesn't -prevent the facet from storing the value. +Note that the proposed resolution purely involves moving the +declarations of a few specializations, it specifically does not make any +changes to 20.8.15 [unord.hash].

    Discussion:

    -In 19.5.5.1 [syserr.syserr.overview] we have the class definition of -std::system_error. In contrast to all exception classes, which -are constructible with a what_arg string (see 19.2 [std.exceptions], -or ios_base::failure in 27.5.2.1.1 [ios::failure]), only overloads with with -const string& are possible. For consistency with the re-designed -remaining exception classes this class should also provide -c'tors which accept a const char* what_arg string. -

    -

    -Please note that this proposed addition makes sense even -considering the given implementation hint for what(), because -what_arg is required to be set as what_arg of the base class -runtime_error, which now has the additional c'tor overload -accepting a const char*. +The protected member function set_rdbuf had been added during the +process of adding move and swap semantics to IO classes. A relevant +property of this function is described by it's effects in +27.5.4.2 [basic.ios.members]/19:

    +
    +Effects: Associates the basic_streambuf object pointed to by sb with +this stream without calling clear(). +
    -

    Proposed resolution:

    -This proposed wording assumes issue 832 has been accepted and applied to the working paper. +This means that implementors of or those who derive from existing IO classes +could cause an internal state where the stream buffer could be 0, but the +IO class has the state good(). This would break several currently existing +implementations which rely on the fact that setting a stream buffer via the +currently only ways, i.e. either by calling

    +
    void init(basic_streambuf<charT,traits>* sb);
    +
    +

    -Change 19.5.5.1 [syserr.syserr.overview] Class system_error overview, as indicated: +or by calling

    -
    public:
    -  system_error(error_code ec, const string& what_arg);
    -  system_error(error_code ec, const char* what_arg);
    -  system_error(error_code ec);
    -  system_error(int ev, const error_category* ecat,
    -      const string& what_arg);
    -  system_error(int ev, const error_category* ecat,
    -      const char* what_arg);
    -  system_error(int ev, const error_category* ecat);
    +
    basic_streambuf<charT,traits>* rdbuf(basic_streambuf<charT,traits>* sb);
     

    -To 19.5.5.2 [syserr.syserr.members] Class system_error members add: +to set rdstate() to badbit, if the buffer is 0. This has the effect that many +internal functions can simply check rdstate() instead of rdbuf() for being 0.

    -
    -
    system_error(error_code ec, const char* what_arg);
    -
    -

    -Effects: Constructs an object of class system_error. +I therefore suggest that a requirement is added for callers of set_rdbuf to +set a non-0 value.

    + +

    [ +2009-10 Santa Cruz: +]

    + + +
    +Moved to Open. Martin volunteers to provide new wording, where +set_rdbuf() sets the badbit but does not cause an +exception to be thrown like a call to clear() would. +
    + +

    [ +2009-10-20 Martin provides wording: +]

    + +

    -Postconditions: code() == ec and strcmp(runtime_error::what(), what_arg) == 0. +Change 27.5.4.2 [basic.ios.members] around p. 19 as indicated:

    -
    -
    system_error(int ev, const error_category* ecat, const char* what_arg);
    +
    void set_rdbuf(basic_streambuf<charT, traits>* sb);
     
    +

    +Effects: Associates the basic_streambuf object pointed +to by sb with this stream without calling clear(). +Postconditions: rdbuf() == sb. +

    + +

    +Effects: As if: +

    + +
    
    +iostate state = rdstate();
    +try { rdbuf(sb); }
    +catch(ios_base::failure) {
    +   if (0 == (state & ios_base::badbit))
    +       unsetf(badbit);
    +}
    +
    +

    -Effects: Constructs an object of class system_error. -

    -

    -Postconditions: code() == error_code(ev, ecat) and strcmp(runtime_error::what(), what_arg) == 0. +Throws: Nothing.

    +
    +

    Rationale:

    +We need to be able to call set_rdbuf() on stream objects +for which (rdbuf() == 0) holds without causing ios_base::failure to +be thrown. We also don't want badbit to be set as a result of +setting rdbuf() to 0 if it wasn't set before the call. This changed +Effects clause maintains the current behavior (as of N2914) without +requiring that sb be non-null. +

    -map::at() need a complexity specification. +Consider a typical use case: I create an unordered_map and then start +adding elements to it one at a time. I know that it will eventually need +to store a few million elements, so, for performance reasons, I would +like to reserve enough capacity that none of the calls to insert will +trigger a rehash.

    -The changes made for constexpr in 21.2.3 [char.traits.specializations] have -not only changed the not_eof function from pass by const reference to -pass by value, it has also changed the parameter type from int_type to -char_type. +The tuple get API should respect rvalues.

    -Because it doesn't seem to add anything. It simply makes the behavior -for p = 0 undefined. For programmers who don't create empty pointers -with p = 0, there is no difference. Those who do insist on creating them -presumably have a good reason, and it costs nothing for us to define the -behavior in this case. +23.5.1.1 [queue.defn] has the following queue constructor:

    -I have received a few requests for it from "performance-conscious" -people (you should be familiar with this mindset) who don't like the -overhead of allocating and maintaining a control block when a null -deleter is used to approximate a raw pointer. It is obviously an "at -your own risk", low-level feature; essentially a raw pointer behind a -shared_ptr facade. +Before the addition of this constructor, queue<int>(5) would not compile. +I ask, not because this crashes, but because it is new and appears to be +unintended. We do not want to be in a position of accidently introducing this +"feature" in C++0X and later attempting to remove it.

    Discussion:

    -The complexity of sort() is specified as "Approximately N -log(N) (where N == last - first ) comparisons on the -average", with no worst case complicity specified. The intention was to -allow a median-of-three quicksort implementation, which is usually O(N -log N) but can be quadratic for pathological inputs. However, there is -no longer any reason to allow implementers the freedom to have a -worst-cast-quadratic sort algorithm. Implementers who want to use -quicksort can use a variant like David Musser's "Introsort" (Software -Practice and Experience 27:983-993, 1997), which is guaranteed to be O(N -log N) in the worst case without incurring additional overhead in the -average case.

    Discussion:

    -In the listing of 26.8 [c.math], table 108: Header <cmath> synopsis I miss -the following C99 functions (from 7.12.11.2): +Several parts of the library use the notion of "Diagnostic required" +to indicate that +in the corresponding situation an error diagnostic should occur, e.g. +20.9.9.1.2 [unique.ptr.dltr.dflt]/2

    +
    void operator()(T *ptr) const;
    +
    -
    float nanf(const char *tagp);

    +
    +Effects: calls delete on ptr. A diagnostic is required if T is an +incomplete type. +
    +

    -(Note: These functions cannot be overloaded and they are also not -listed anywhere else) +The problem with this approach is that such a requirement is +insufficient to prevent +undefined behavior, if this situation occurs. According to 1.3.6 [defns.diagnostic] +a diagnostic message is defined as

    +
    +a message belonging to an implementation-defined subset of the +implementation's output messages. +
    -

    Proposed resolution:

    -In 26.8 [c.math], table 108, section "Functions", add nanf and nanl -just after the existing entry nan. +which doesn't indicate any relation to an ill-formed program. In fact, +"compiler warnings" +are a typical expression of such diagnostics. This means that above +wording can be interpreted +by compiler writers that they satisfy the requirements of the standard +if they just produce +such a "warning", if the compiler happens to compile code like this:

    +
    #include <memory>
     
    +struct Ukn; // defined somewhere else
    +Ukn* create_ukn(); // defined somewhere else
     
    +int main() {
    + std::default_delete<Ukn>()(create_ukn());
    +}
    +
    +

    +In this and other examples discussed here it was the authors intent to +guarantee that the +program is ill-formed with a required diagnostic, therefore such +wording should be used instead. +According to the general rules outlined in 1.4 [intro.compliance] it +should be sufficient +to require that these situations produce an ill-formed program and the +"diagnostic +required" part should be implied. The proposed resolution also +suggests to remove +several redundant wording of "Diagnostics required" to ensure that +the absence of +such saying does not cause a misleading interpretation. +

    Addresses UK 316

    +

    -According to the current state of the standard draft, the class -template basic_regex, as described in 28.8 [re.regex]/3, is -neither MoveConstructible nor MoveAssignable. -IMO it should be, because typical regex state machines tend -to have a rather large data quantum and I have seen several -use cases, where a factory function returns regex values, -which would take advantage of moveabilities. +Move to NAD. +

    +

    +It's not clear that there's any important difference between +"ill-formed" and "diagnostic required". From 1.4 [intro.compliance], 1.3.9 [defns.ill.formed], and 1.3.26 [defns.well.formed] it appears that an ill-formed program is one +that is not correctly constructed according to the syntax rules and +diagnosable semantic rules, which means that... "a conforming +implementation shall issue at least one diagnostic message." The +author's intent seems to be that we should be requiring a fatal error +instead of a mere warning, but the standard just doesn't have language +to express that distinction. The strongest thing we can ever require is +a "diagnostic".

    +

    +The proposed rewording may be a clearer way of expressing the same thing +that the WP already says, but such a rewording is editorial. +

This resolution has the advantage of a minimum impact on the +current wording, but I would like to mention that a more intrusive solution +might be preferrable - at least as a long-term solution: Jens Maurer suggested +the following approach to get rid of the usage of the term "ill-formed" from the +library by introducing a new category to existing elements to the list of 17.5.1.4 [structure.specifications]/3, e.g. "type requirements" or "static +constraints" that define conditions that can be checked during compile-time and +any violation would make the program ill-formed.

    + +
    +Requires: I < sizeof...(Types). The program is ill-formed if +I is out of bounds. +

    Discussion:

    -chi_squared_distribution, fisher_f_distribution and student_t_distribution -have parameters for the "degrees of freedom" n and m that are specified as integers. For the -following two reasons this is an unnecessary restriction: First, in many applications such as -Bayesian inference or Monte Carlo simulations it is more convenient to treat the respective param- -eters as continuous variables. Second, the standard non-naive algorithms (i.e. -O(1) algorithms) -for simulating from these distributions work with floating-point parameters anyway (all three -distributions could be easily implemented using the Gamma distribution, for instance). -

    - -

    -Similar arguments could in principle be made for the parameters t and k of the discrete -binomial_distribution and negative_binomial_distribution, though in both cases continuous -parameters are less frequently used in practice and in case of the binomial_distribution -the implementation would be significantly complicated by a non-discrete parameter (in most -implementations one would need an approximation of the log-gamma function instead of just the -log-factorial function). +Table 97 "Unordered associative container requirements" in +23.2.5 [unord.req] says:

    1198. Container adaptor swap: member or non-member?

    Discussion:

    -Please don't provide *_ptr<T[N]>. It doesn't enable any useful -bounds-checking (e.g., you could imagine that doing op++ on a -shared_ptr<T[N]> yields a shared_ptr<T[N-1]>, but that promising path -immediately falters on op-- which can't reliably dereference because we -don't know the lower bound). Also, most buffers you'd want to point to -don't have a compile-time known size. +Under 23.5 [container.adaptors] of +N2914 +the member function of swap of queue and stack call:

    +
    swap(c, q.c);
    +
    +

    -To enable any bounds-checking would require run-time information, with -the usual triplet: base (lower bound), current offset, and max offset -(upper bound). And I can sympathize with the point of view that you -wouldn't want to require this on *_ptr itself. But please let's not -follow the <T[N]> path, especially not with additional functions to -query the bounds etc., because this sets wrong user expectations by -embarking on a path that doesn't go all the way to bounds checking as it -seems to imply. +But under 23.5 [container.adaptors] of +N2723 +these members are specified to call:

    +
    c.swap(q.c);
    +
    +

    -If bounds checking is desired, consider a checked_*_ptr instead (e.g., -checked_shared_ptr). And make the interfaces otherwise identical so that -user code could easily #define/typedef between prepending checked_ on -debug builds and not doing so on release builds (for example). +Neither draft specifies the semantics of member swap for +priority_queue though it is declared.

    -Note that some may object that checked_*_ptr may seem to make the smart -pointer more like vector, and we don't want two ways to spell vector. I -don't agree, but if that were true that would be another reason to -remove *_ptr<T[N]> which equally makes the smart pointer more like -std::array. :-) +Although the distinction between member swap and non-member +swap is not important when these adaptors are adapting standard +containers, it may be important for user-defined containers. +

    +

    +We (Pablo and Howard) feel that +it is more likely for a user-defined container to support a namespace scope +swap than a member swap, and therefore these adaptors +should use the container's namespace scope swap.

    [ -Bellevue: +2009-09-30 Daniel adds: ]

    Suggestion that fixed-size array instantiations are going to fail at -compile time anyway (if we remove specialization) due to pointer decay, -at least that appears to be result from available compilers. -

    -

    -So concerns about about requiring static_assert seem unfounded. -

    Discussion:

    -When the LWG looked at 674 in Kona the following note was made: +queue has a constructor:

    -

    -We may need to open an issue to deal with the question of -whether shared_ptr needs an rvalue swap. -

    +
    template <class Alloc>
    +  queue(queue&&, const Alloc&);
    +

    -This issue was opened in response to that note. +but it is missing a corresponding constructor:

    +
    template <class Alloc>
    +  queue(const queue&, const Alloc&);
    +
    +

    -I believe allowing rvalue shared_ptrs to swap is both -appropriate, and consistent with how other library components are currently specified. +The same is true of priority_queue, and stack. This +"extended copy constructor" is needed for consistency and to ensure that the +user of a container adaptor can always specify the allocator for his adaptor.

    [ -Bellevue: +2010-02-01 Moved to Tentatively Ready after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib. ]

    -
    -

    -Concern that the three signatures for swap is needlessly complicated, -but this issue merely brings shared_ptr into equal complexity with the -rest of the library. Will open a new issue for concern about triplicate -signatures. -

    Proposed resolution:

    +

    [ +This resolution has been harmonized with the proposed resolution to issue +1194 +]

    Discussion:

    -Without some lifetime guarantee, it is hard to know how this type can be -used. Very specifically, I don't see how the current wording would -guarantee and exception_ptr caught at the end of one thread could be safely -stored and rethrown in another thread - the original motivation for this -API. +When a library function binds an rvalue reference parameter to an argument, the +library must be able to assume that the bound argument is a temporary, and not +a moved-from lvalue. The reason for this is that the library function must be +able to modify that argument without concern that such modifications will corrupt +the logic of the calling code. For example:

    + +
    template <class T, class A>
    +void
    +vector<T, A>::push_back(value_type&& v)
    +{
    +    // This function should move from v, potentially modifying
    +    //   the object v is bound to.
    +}
    +
    +

    -(Peter Dimov agreed it should be clearer, maybe a non-normative note to -explain?) +If v is truly bound to a temporary, then push_back has the +only reference to this temporary in the entire program. Thus any +modifications will be invisible to the rest of the program.

    -

    [ -Bellevue: -]

    +

    +If the client supplies std::move(x) to push_back, the onus is +on the client to ensure that the value of x is no longer important to +the logic of his program after this statement. I.e. the client is making a statement +that push_back may treat x as a temporary. +

    +
    +The above statement is the very foundation upon which move semantics is based. +
    -

    -Agree the issue is real. +The standard is currently lacking a global statement to this effect. I propose +the following addition to 17.6.3.9 [res.on.arguments]:

    + +

    -Intent is lifetime is similar to a shared_ptr (and we might even want to -consider explicitly saying that it is a shared_ptr< unspecified type >). +Each of the following statements applies to all arguments to functions +defined in the C++ standard library, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

    +
      +
    • +If an argument to a function has an invalid value (such as a value +outside the domain of the function, or a pointer invalid for its +intended use), the behavior is undefined. +
    • +
    • +If a function argument is described as being an array, the pointer +actually passed to the function shall have a value such that all address +computations and accesses to objects (that would be valid if the pointer +did point to the first element of such an array) are in fact valid. +
    • +
    • +If a function argument binds to an rvalue reference parameter, the C++ +standard library may assume that this parameter is a unique reference +to this argument. If the parameter is a generic parameter of the +form T&&, and an lvalue of type A is bound, +then the binding is considered to be to an lvalue reference +(14.8.2.1 [temp.deduct.call]) and thus not covered by this clause. +[Note: +If a program casts an lvalue to an rvalue while passing that lvalue to +a library function (e.g. move(x)), then the program is effectively +asking the library to treat that lvalue as a temporary. The library is at +liberty to optimize away aliasing checks which might be needed if the argument +were an lvalue. +— end note] +
    • +
    + +
    +

    -We expect that most implementations will use shared_ptr, and the -standard should be clear that the exception_ptr type is intended to be -something whose semantics are smart-pointer-like so that the user does -not need to worry about lifetime management. We still need someone to -draught those words - suggest emailing Peter Dimov. +Such a global statement will eliminate the need for piecemeal statements such as +23.2.1 [container.requirements.general]/13:

    + +
    +An object bound to an rvalue reference parameter of a member function of +a container shall not be an element of that container; no diagnostic +required. +
    +

    -Move to Open. +Additionally this clarifies that move assignment operators need not perform the +traditional if (this != &rhs) test commonly found (and needed) in +copy assignment operators.

    Discussion:

    -I understand that the attempt to copy an exception may run out of memory, -but I believe this is the only part of the standard that mandates failure -with specifically bad_alloc, as opposed to allowing an -implementation-defined type derived from bad_alloc. For instance, the Core -language for a failed new expression is: +There are a number of algorithms whose result might depend on the +handling of an empty range. In some cases the result is not clear, +while in others it would help readers to clearly mention the result +rather than require some subtle intuition of the supplied wording.

    -
    +

    -Any other allocation function that fails to allocate storage shall indicate -failure only by throwing an exception of a type that would match a handler -(15.3) of type std::bad_alloc (18.5.2.1). +25.2.1 [alg.all_of]

    +Returns: true if pred(*i) is true for every +iterator i in the range [first,last), ...

    -I think we should allow similar freedom here (or add a blanket -compatible-exception freedom paragraph in 17) +What does this mean if the range is empty?

    +

    -I prefer the clause 17 approach myself, and maybe clean up any outstanding -wording that could also rely on it. +I believe that we intend this to be true and suggest a +non-normative note to clarify:

    +

    -Although filed against a specific case, this issue is a problem throughout -the library. +Add to p1 25.2.1 [alg.all_of]:

    +Returns: true if pred(*i) is false for every +iterator i in the range [first,last), ... +
    +

    -Is issue bigger than library? +What does this mean if the range empty?

    +

    -No - Core are already very clear about their wording, which is inspiration for the issue. +I believe that we intend this to be true and suggest a +non-normative note to clarify:

    +

    -While not sold on the original 18.7.5 use case, the generalised 17.4.4.8 wording is the real issue. +Add to p1 25.2.3 [alg.none_of]:

    + +
    +[Note: Returns true if [first,last) is empty. +— end note] +
    +

    -Accept the broad view and move to ready +25.2.2 [alg.any_of]

    -
    +

    +The specification for an empty range is actually fairly clear in this +case, but a note wouldn't hurt and would be consistent with proposals +for all_of/none_of algorithms. +

    -

    Proposed resolution:

    -Add the following exemption clause to 17.6.4.11 [res.on.exception.handling]: +Add to p1 25.2.2 [alg.any_of]:

    -A function may throw a type not listed in its Throws clause so long as it is -derived from a class named in the Throws clause, and would be caught by an -exception handler for the base type. +[Note: Returns false if [first,last) is empty. +— end note]
    +

    +25.2.6 [alg.find.end] +

    +

    +what does this mean if [first2,last2) is empty? +

    +

    +I believe the wording suggests the algorithm should return +last1 in this case, but am not 100% sure. Is this in fact the +correct result anyway? Surely an empty range should always match and the +naive expected result would be first1? +

    Discussion:

    -The draft standard n2369 uses the term move constructor in a few -places, but doesn't seem to define it. +Proposed wording:

    -MoveConstructible requirements are defined in Table 33 in 20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements] as -follows: +Add to p1 25.3.13 [alg.partitions]:

    - - - - - - - - - - - -
    MoveConstructible requirements
    expression post-condition
    T t = rv t is equivalent to the value of rv before the construction
    [Note: There is no requirement on the value of rv after the -construction. -- end note]
    +[Note: Returns true if [first,last) is empty. +— end note]

    -(where rv is a non-const rvalue of type T). +25.4.5.1 [includes]

    +
    +Returns: true if every element in the range +[first2,last2) is contained in the range +[first1,last1). ... +
    +

    -So I assume the move constructor is the constructor that would be used -in filling the above requirement. +I really don't know what this means if [first2,last2) is empty. +I could loosely guess that this implies empty ranges always match, and +my proposed wording is to clarify exactly that:

    -For vector::reserve, vector::resize and the vector modifiers given in -23.3.6.4 [vector.modifiers] we have +Add to p1 25.4.5.1 [includes]:

    -Requires: If value_type has a move constructor, that constructor shall -not throw any exceptions. +[Note: Returns true if [first2,last2) is empty. +— end note]

    -Firstly "If value_type has a move constructor" is superfluous; every -type which can be put into a vector has a move constructor (a copy -constructor is also a move constructor). Secondly it means that for -any value_type which has a throwing copy constructor and no other move -constructor these functions cannot be used -- which I think will come -as a shock to people who have been using such types in vector until -now! +25.4.6.2 [pop.heap]

    -I can see two ways to correct this. The simpler, which is presumably -what was intended, is to say "If value_type has a move constructor and -no copy constructor, the move constructor shall not throw any -exceptions" or "If value_type has a move constructor which changes the -value of its parameter,". +The effects clause is invalid if the range [first,last) is empty, unlike +all the other heap alogorithms. The should be called out in the +requirements.

    -The other alternative is add to MoveConstructible the requirement that -the expression does not throw. This would mean that not every type -that satisfies the CopyConstructible requirements also satisfies the -MoveConstructible requirements. It would mean changing requirements in -various places in the draft to allow either MoveConstructible or -CopyConstructible, but I think the result would be clearer and -possibly more concise too. +Proposed wording:

    -
    template <class Y> shared_ptr(Y *);
    -
    +

    +When result == last, which +is allowed by this specification, then the range [first, last) +is being move assigned into the range [first, last). The move +(forward) algorithm doesn't allow self move assignment, and neither should +move_backward. So last should be included in the range which +result can not be in. +

    -According -to N2431, -the conversion from nullptr_t to Y * is not -deducible, so the above constructor will not be found. There are similar problems with the -constructors that take a pointer and a deleter or a -pointer, a deleter and an allocator, as well as the -corresponding forms of reset(). Note that N2435 -will solve this problem for constructing from just nullptr, but not for constructors that use -deleters or allocators or for reset(). +Conversely, when result == first, which is not allowed by this +specification, then the range [first, last) +is being move assigned into the range [first - (last-first), first). +I.e. into a non-overlapping range. Therefore first should +not be included in the range which result can not be in.

    -In the case of the functions that take deleters, there is the additional -question of what argument should be passed to the deleter when it is -eventually called. There are two reasonable possibilities: nullptr or -static_cast<T *>(0), where T is the template argument of the -shared_ptr. It is not immediately clear which of these is better. If -D::operator() is a template function similar to shared_ptr's -constructor, then d(static_cast<T*>(0)) will compile and d(nullptr) -will not. On the other hand, if D::operator()() takes a parameter that -is a pointer to some type other that T (for instance U* where U derives -from T) then d(nullptr) will compile and d(static_cast<T *>(0)) may not. +The same argument applies to copy_backward though copy assigning elements +to themselves (result == last) should be harmless (though is disallowed +by copy).

    -The general idea is right, we need to be able to pass a nullptr to a -shared_ptr, but there are a few borderline editorial issues here.

There is a missing empty parenthesis in the form that -takes a nullptr_t, a deleter, and an allocator.) -

    Discussion:

    -In contrast to the proposed std::shared_ptr, std::unique_ptr -does currently not support incomplete types, because it -gives no explicit grant - thus instantiating unique_ptr with -an incomplete pointee type T automatically belongs to -undefined behaviour according to 17.6.3.8 [res.on.functions]/2, last -bullet. This is an unnecessary restriction and prevents -many well-established patterns - like the bridge pattern - -for std::unique_ptr. +In Working Draft +N2914, +match_results lacks a move constructor and move +assignment operator. Because it owns dynamically allocated memory, it +should be moveable. +

    + +

    +As far as I can tell, this isn't tracked by an active issue yet; Library +Issue 723 doesn't talk about match_results.

    [ -Bellevue: +2009-09-21 Daniel provided wording. ]

    -
    -Move to open. The LWG is comfortable with the intent of allowing -incomplete types and making unique_ptr more like shared_ptr, but we are -not comfortable with the wording. The specification for unique_ptr -should be more like that of shared_ptr. We need to know, for individual -member functions, which ones require their types to be complete. The -shared_ptr specification is careful to say that for each function, and -we need the same level of care here. We also aren't comfortable with the -"part of the operational semantic" language; it's not used elsewhere in -the standard, and it's not clear what it means. We need a volunteer to -produce new wording. -

    -The proposed changes in the following revision refers to the current state of -N2521 including the assumption that X [unique.ptr.compiletime] will be removed -according to the current state of 740. -

    -

    -The specialization unique_ptr<T[]> has some more restrictive constraints on -type-completeness on T than unique_ptr<T>. The following proposed wordings -try to cope with that. If the committee sees less usefulness on relaxed -constraints on unique_ptr<T[]>, the alternative would be to stop this relaxation -e.g. by adding one further bullet to 20.8.14.3 [unique.ptr.runtime]/1: -"T shall be a complete type, if used as template argument of -unique_ptr<T[], D> -

    -

    -This issue has some overlap with 673, but it seems not to cause any -problems with this one, -because 673 adds only optional requirements on D that do not conflict -with the here discussed -ones, provided that D::pointer's operations (including default -construction, copy construction/assignment, -and pointer conversion) are specified not to throw, otherwise this -would have impact on the -current specification of unique_ptr. -

      [ -N.B.: There is no need that the expression D()(p) is well-formed at -this point. I assume that the current wording is based on the -corresponding shared_ptr wording.

    Discussion:

    -in the latest publicly available draft, paper -N2641, -in section 29.5.3 [atomics.types.generic], the following specialization of the template -atomic<> is provided for pointers: +I'm just reflecting on the now SFINAE-constrained constructors +and assignment operators of error_code and error_condition: +

    +

    +These are the only library components that are pro-actively +announcing that they are using std::enable_if as constraining tool, +which has IMO several disadvantages:

    -
    template <class T> struct atomic<T*> : atomic_address { 
    -  T* fetch_add(ptrdiff_t, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile; 
    -  T* fetch_sub(ptrdiff_t, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile; 
    -
    -  atomic() = default; 
    -  constexpr explicit atomic(T); 
    -  atomic(const atomic&) = delete; 
    -  atomic& operator=(const atomic&) = delete; 
    +
      +
    1. +

      +With the availability of template default arguments and +decltype, using enable_if in C++0x standard library, seems +unnecessary restricting implementation freedom. E.g. there +should be not need for a useless specification of a dummy +default function argument, which only confuses the reader. +A more reasonable implementation could e.g. be +

      - T* operator=(T*) volatile; - T* operator++(int) volatile; - T* operator--(int) volatile; - T* operator++() volatile; - T* operator--() volatile; - T* operator+=(ptrdiff_t) volatile; - T* operator-=(ptrdiff_t) volatile; -}; +
      template <class ErrorCodeEnum
      + class = typename enable_if<is_error_code_enum<ErrorCodeEnum>::value>::type>
      +error_code(ErrorCodeEnum e);
       

      -First of all, there is a typo in the non-default constructor which -should take a T* rather than a T. +As currently specified, the function signatures are so unreadable, +that errors quite easily happen, see e.g. 1229.

      +
    2. +
    3. -As you can see, the specialization redefine and therefore hide a few -methods from the base class atomic_address, namely fetch_add, fetch_sub, -operator=, operator+= and operator-=. That's good, but... what happened -to the other methods, in particular these ones: +We have a lot of constrained functions in other places, that +now have a standard phrase that is easily understandable:

      -
      void store(T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile;
      -T* load( memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      -T* swap( T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      -bool compare_swap( T*&, T*, memory_order, memory_order ) volatile;
      -bool compare_swap( T*&, T*, memory_order = memory_order_seq_cst ) volatile;
      -
      +
      +Remarks: This constructor/function shall participate in overload +resolution if and only if X. +

      -By reading paper -N2427 "C++ Atomic Types and Operations", -I see that the -definition of the specialization atomic<T*> matches the one in the -draft, but in the example implementation the methods load(), swap() -and compare_swap() are indeed present. +where X describes the condition. Why should these components deviate?

      +
    4. +
    5. -Strangely, the example implementation does not redefine the method -store(). It's true that a T* is always convertible to void*, but not -hiding the void* signature from the base class makes the class -error-prone to say the least: it lets you assign pointers of any type to -a T*, without any hint from the compiler. +If enable_if would not be explicitly specified, the standard library +is much better prepared for the future. It would also be possible, that +libraries with partial support for not-yet-standard-concepts could provide +a much better diagnostic as is possible with enable_if. This again +would allow for experimental concept implementations in the wild, +which as a result would make concept standardization a much more +natural thing, similar to the way as templates were standardized +in C++.

      -Is there a true intent to remove them from the specialization or are -they just missing from the definition because of a mistake? +In summary: I consider it as a library defect that error_code and +error_condition explicitly require a dependency to enable_if and +do limit implementation freedom and I volunteer to prepare a +corresponding resolution.

    +

    -Since all overloads return either a std::string or a std::wstring by value -this throws clause is impossible to realize in general, since the basic_string -constructors can fail due to out-of-memory conditions. Either these throws -clauses should be removed or should be more detailled like: +Note that EqualityComparable implied an equivalence relation.

    -The return clause 21.5 [string.conversions]/paragraph 15 of the new to_wstring -overloads says: +In 20.8.15 [unord.hash], operator() is specified as +taking the argument by value. Moreover, it is said that operator() shall +not throw exceptions.

    Discussion:

    -

    -The tuple element access API identifies the element in the sequence -using signed integers, and then goes on to enforce the requirement that -I be >= 0. There is a much easier way to do this - declare I as -unsigned. -

    -

    -In fact the proposal is to use std::size_t, matching the type used in the tuple_size API. -

    -

    -A second suggestion is that it is hard to imagine an API that deduces -and index at compile time and returns a reference throwing an exception. -Add a specific Throws: Nothing paragraph to each element -access API. -

    -

    -In addition to tuple, update the API applies to -pair and array, and should be updated -accordingly. -

    -

    -A third observation is that the return type of the get -functions for std::pair is pseudo-code, but it is not -clearly marked as such. There is actually no need for pseudo-code as -the return type can be specified precisely with a call to -tuple_element. This is already done for -std::tuple, and std::array does not have a -problem as all elements are of type T. -

    -

    -Update header <utility> synopsis in 20.3 [utility] -

    This class template is only required to be instantiable + for integer types (3.9.1 [basic.fundamental]), floating-point types (3.9.1 [basic.fundamental]), + pointer types (8.3.1 [dcl.ptr]), and std::string, std::u16string, + std::u32string, std::wstring, std::error_code, + std::thread::id, std::bitset, and std::vector<bool>.

    2 The return value of operator() is unspecified, except that + equal arguments shall yield the same result. operator() shall not + throw exceptions.

    Change Unordered associative containers 23.2.5 [unord.req] as indicated:

    +
    +

    Each unordered associative container is parameterized by Key, by a + function object type Hash([hash.requirements]) that acts as a hash + function for argument values of type Key, + and by a binary predicate Pred that induces an equivalence relation + on values of type Key. Additionally, unordered_map and + unordered_multimap associate an arbitrary mapped type T with the + Key.

    +

    A hash function is a function object that takes a single argument of type + Key and returns a value of type std::size_t.

    +

    Two values k1 and k2 of type Key are considered +equal if the container's equality function object returns true when passed those +values. If k1 and k2 are equal, the hash function shall return +the same value for both.

      +The library provides the function template declval to simplify +the definition of expressions which occur as +unevaluated operands (5 [expr]). The +template parameter T of declval may +be an incomplete type.

      Discussion:

      -The resolution of 283 did not resolve similar necessary changes for algorithm -remove_copy[_if], -which seems to be an oversight. +[Example:

      +
      
      +template<class To, class From>
      +decltype(static_cast<To>(declval<From>())) convert(From&&);
      +
      -

      Proposed resolution:

      -In 25.3.8 [alg.remove]/p.6, replace the N2461 requires clause with: + +declares a function template convert, which only participates in +overloading if the type From can be explicitly cast to type To. +For another example see class template common_type +(20.7.7.6 [meta.trans.other]). +— end example]

      - -
      -Requires: Type T is EqualityComparable (31). The ranges [first,last) -and [result,result + (last - first)) shall not overlap. The expression *result = *first shall be -valid.
      +
    4. +
    5. +

      +This bullet just makes clear that after applying N2984, the changes in 20.7.4.3 [meta.unary.prop], before +table Type property queries should not use declval, +because the well-formedness requirement of the specification of +is_constructible would become more complicated, because we +would need to make sure that the expression CE is checked in an +unevaluated context. +

      +
    6. +
    7. +

      +Also 20.7.6 [meta.rel]/4 is not modified similar to the previous bullet, +because with +the stricter requirements of not using declval() the well-formedness condition +would be harder to specify. The following changes are only editorial ones (e.g. +the removal of the duplicate declaration of create()): +

      +
      +

    -First, the expression iterator_traits<InputIterator>::value_type -is invalid due to missing typename keyword, which is easy to -fix. -

    Discussion:

    -The current working paper -(N2497, -integrated just before Bellevue) is -not completely clear whether a given thread::id value may be reused once -a thread has exited and has been joined or detached. Posix allows -thread ids (pthread_t values) to be reused in this case. Although it is -not completely clear whether this originally was the right decision, it -is clearly the established practice, and we believe it was always the -intent of the C++ threads API to follow Posix and allow this. Howard -Hinnant's example implementation implicitly relies on allowing reuse -of ids, since it uses Posix thread ids directly. +The specification of is_constructible<T,Args...> in +N3000 +uses

    +
    static_cast<T>(create<Args>()...)
    +
    +

    -It is important to be clear on this point, since it the reuse of thread -ids often requires extra care in client code, which would not be -necessary if thread ids were unique across all time. For example, a -hash table indexed by thread id may have to be careful not to associate -data values from an old thread with a new one that happens to reuse the -id. Simply removing the old entry after joining a thread may not be -sufficient, if it creates a visible window between the join and removal -during which a new thread with the same id could have been created and -added to the table. +for the one-argument case, but static_cast also permits +unwanted conversions such as void* to T* and +Base* to Derived*.

    -There is a real issue with thread::id reuse, but I urge the LWG to -reconsider fixing this by disallowing reuse, rather than explicitly allowing -it.

    -It is not clear what the initial state of an istream_iterator should be. Is -_value_ initialized by reading the stream, or default/value initialized? If -it is initialized by reading the stream, what happens if the initialization -is deferred until first dereference, when ideally the iterator value should -have been that of an end-of-stream iterator which is not safely -dereferencable? +20.9.10.2.7 [util.smartptr.shared.cmp]/5 says:

Moreover, +less<shared_ptr<T> >::operator()(a, b) shall return +std::less<T*>::operator()(a.get(), b.get()). +
    +

    -Recommendation: Specify _value_ is initialized by reading the stream, or -the iterator takes on the end-of-stream value if the stream is empty. +This is necessary in order to use shared_ptr as the key in associate +containers because +n2637 +changed operator< on shared_ptrs to be +defined in terms of operator< on the stored pointers (a mistake IMHO +but too late now.)

    -The description of how an istream_iterator object becomes an -end-of-stream iterator is a) ambiguous and b) out of date WRT -issue 468: +Earlier versions of the WP +(n2798, +n2857) +had the following note on +that paragraph:

    -istream_iterator reads (using operator>>) successive elements from the -input stream for which it was constructed. After it is constructed, and -every time ++ is used, the iterator reads and stores a value of T. If -the end of stream is reached (operator void*() on the stream returns -false), the iterator becomes equal to the end-of-stream iterator value. -The constructor with no arguments istream_iterator() always constructs -an end of stream input iterator object, which is the only legitimate -iterator to be used for the end condition. The result of operator* on an -end of stream is not defined. For any other iterator value a const T& is -returned. The result of operator-> on an end of stream is not defined. -For any other iterator value a const T* is returned. It is impossible to -store things into istream iterators. The main peculiarity of the istream -iterators is the fact that ++ operators are not equality preserving, -that is, i == j does not guarantee at all that ++i == ++j. Every time ++ -is used a new value is read. +[Editor's +note: It's not clear to me whether the first sentence is a requirement +or a note. The second +sentence seems to be a requirement, but it doesn't really belong here, +under operator<.]

    -istream::operator void*() returns null if istream::fail() is true, -otherwise non-null. istream::fail() returns true if failbit or -badbit is set in rdstate(). Reaching the end of stream doesn't -necessarily imply that failbit or badbit is set (e.g., after -extracting an int from stringstream("123") the stream object will -have reached the end of stream but fail() is false and operator -void*() will return a non-null value). +I agree completely - if partial specializations are needed they should +be properly specified.

    -Also I would prefer to be explicit about calling fail() here -(there is no operator void*() anymore.) +20.9.10.2.7 [util.smartptr.shared.cmp]/6 has a note saying the comparison operator +allows shared_ptr objects to be used as keys in associative +containers, which is misleading because something else like a +std::less partial specialization is needed.

    +This comment was rejected in Summit saying neither at_exit nor +at_quick_exit should be required. This suggests the comment was +misread, as atexit is already required to be supported.

    -Howard: please ping Beman, asking him to clear away parts A and B from -the wording in the proposed resolution, so it is clear to the editor -what needs to be applied to the working paper. +Need subset of Lockable requirements for condition_variable_any that does not +include try_lock. E.g. CvLockable < Lockable.

    -Beman provided updated wording. Since issue 832 is not going -forward, the provided wording includes resolution of part A. +Text needs updating to recent draft changes. +

    +

    +Needs to specify exception behavior in Lockable. +

    +

    +The current standard is fine for what it says, but it places requirements that +are too strong on authors of mutexes and locks. +

    +

    +Move to open status. Suggest Anthony look at condition_variable_any +requirements. Suggest Anthony refine requirements/concepts categories. +

    -Alberto Ganesh Barbati also raised this issue in private email, and also proposed the scoped-enum solution. -

    -

    -Nick Stoughton asked in Bellevue that posix_error and posix_errno not be used as names. The LWG agreed. -

    -The wording for the Proposed resolution was provided by Beman Dawes. +result_of is essentially a metafunction to return the type of an +expression, and belongs with the other library metafunctions in +<type_traits> rather than lurking in <functional>. + The current definition in <functional> made sense when +result_of was nothing more than a protocol to enable several components +in <functional> to provide their own result types, but it has +become a more general tool. For instance, result_of is now used in the +threading and futures components.

    -
    - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -Change System error support 19.5 [syserr] as indicated: +Now that <type_traits> is a required header for free-standing +implementations it will be much more noticeable (in such environments) that a +particularly useful trait is missing, unless that implementation also chooses to +offer <functional> as an extension.

    -  error_condition make_error_condition(posix_errno errc e);
    -} // namespace posix_error
    -
    -

    -Change System error support 19.5 [syserr] : +The simplest proposal is to simply move the wording (editorial direction below) +although a more consistent form for type_traits would reformat this as a table.

    -
    -The is_error_code_enum and is_error_condition_enum templates may be -specialized for user-defined types to indicate that such a type is -eligible for class error_code and class error_condition automatic -conversions, respectively. -
    -

    -Change System error support 19.5 [syserr] and its subsections: +Following the acceptance of 1255, result_of now +depends on the declval function template, tentatively provided +in <utility> which is not (yet) required of a +free-standing implementation.

    -
    -
      -
    • -remove all occurrences of posix_error:: -
    • -
    • -change all instances of posix_errno to errc -

    • -
    • -change all instances of get_posix_category to get_generic_category -
    • -
    -
    +

    +This dependency is less of an issue when result_of continues to +live in <functional>. +

    -Change Error category objects 19.5.1.5 [syserr.errcat.objects], paragraph 2: +Personally, I would prefer to clean up the dependencies so both +result_of and declval are available in a free-standing +implementation, but that would require slightly more work than suggested +here. A minimal tweak would be to require <utility> in a +free-standing implementation, although there are a couple of subtle +issues with make_pair, which uses reference_wrapper in +its protocol and that is much harder to separate cleanly from +<functional>.

    -
    -Remarks: The object's default_error_condition and equivalent virtual -functions shall behave as specified for the class error_category. The -object's name virtual function shall return a pointer to the string -"POSIX" "generic". -
    +

    +An alternative would be to enact the other half of +N2979 +and create a new minimal header for the new C++0x library facilities to +be added to the freestanding requirements (plus swap.) +

    Rationale:

    - - - - - - - - - - - - +

    Proposed resolution:

    +

    From Function objects 20.8 [function.objects], Header <functional> +synopsis, remove:

    +
    +
    // 20.7.4 result_of:
    +template <class> class result_of; // undefined
    +template <class F, class... Args> class result_of<F(ArgTypes...)>;
    +
    - - - - +

    Remove Function object return types X [func.ret] in its entirety. +This sub-section reads:

    +
    +
    namespace std {
    +  template <class> class result_of; // undefined
     
    -
    - - - + template <class Fn, class... ArgTypes> + class result_of<Fn(ArgTypes...)> { + public : + // types + typedef see below type; + }; +} +

    Given an rvalue fn of type Fn and values + t1, t2, ..., tN of types T1, T2, ..., TN in ArgTypes, + respectively, the type member is the result type of the expression + fn(t1, t2, ...,tN). The values ti are lvalues when the + corresponding type Ti is an lvalue-reference type, and rvalues + otherwise.

    + +

    To Header <type_traits> synopsis 20.7.2 [meta.type.synop], add at +the indicated location:

    +
    +
    template <class T> struct underlying_type;
    +template <class T> struct result_of; // not defined
    +template <class Fn, class... ArgTypes> struct result_of<Fn(ArgTypes...)>;
    +
    +

    To Other transformations 20.7.7.6 [meta.trans.other], Table 51 — +Other transformations, add:

    +
    +
    Names Considered
    portable -Too non-specific. Did not wish to reserve such a common word in -namespace std. Not quite the right meaning, either. -
    portable_error -Too long. Explicit qualification is always required for scoped enums, so -a short name is desirable. Not quite the right meaning, either. May be -misleading because *_error in the std lib is usually an exception class -name. -
    std_error -Fairly short, yet explicit. But in fully qualified names like -std::std_error::not_enough_memory, the std_ would be unfortunate. Not -quite the right meaning, either. May be misleading because *_error in -the std lib is usually an exception class name. -
    generic -Short enough. The category could be generic_category. Fully qualified -names like std::generic::not_enough_memory read well. Reserving in -namespace std seems dicey. -
    + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
    TemplateConditionComments
    template <class T>

    template<class T> class W {

    -Clearly W<T> is CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable, and therefore -Swappable, whenever T is CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable. -Moreover, W<T> is also Swappable when T is an array type -whose element type is CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable. -Still it is recommended to add a custom swap function template to such a class template, -for the sake of efficiency and exception safety. -(E.g., Scott Meyers, Effective C++, Third Edition, item 25: Consider support for a non-throwing -swap.) -This function template is typically written as follows: -
    template<class T> void swap(W<T>& x, W<T>& y) {
    -  using std::swap;
    -  swap(x.data, y.data);
    -}

    -Unfortunately, this will introduce an undesirable inconsistency, when T is an array. -For instance, W<std::string[8]> is Swappable, but the current Standard does not -allow calling the custom swap function that was especially written for W! -
    W<std::string[8]> w1, w2;  // Two objects of a Swappable type.

    -29.3 [atomics.order] p2: What's a "consistent execution"? It's not defined in -1.10 [intro.multithread], it's just used in notes there. +This issue is a follow-up of the discussion on issue 870 during +the 2009 Santa Cruz meeting.

    -And why does 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] p9 for "load" say: +The class templates unary_function and binary_function are +actually very simple typedef providers,

    +
    namespace std {

    -(Since this is exactly the same restriction as for "store", it seems to be a typo.) +which may be used as base classes (similarly to the iterator template), +but were originally not intended as a customization point. The SGI +documentation introduced the concept Adaptable Unary +Function as function objects "with nested typedefs that define its argument +type and result type" and a similar definition for Adaptable Binary +Function related to binary_function. But as of TR1 a protocol was +introduced that relies on inheritance relations based on these types. 20.8.4 [refwrap]/3 b. 3 requires that a specialization of +reference_wrapper<T> shall derive from unary_function, +if type T is "a class type that is derived from +std::unary_function<T1, R>" and a similar inheritance-based rule +for binary_function exists as well.

    -And then: 29.6 [atomics.types.operations] p12: +As another disadvantage it has been pointed out in the TR1 issue list, N1837 +(see section 10.39), that the requirements of mem_fn 20.8.13 [func.memfn]/2+3 to derive from +std::unary_function/std::binary_function under circumstances, where the +provision of corresponding typedefs would be sufficient, unnecessarily prevent +implementations that take advantage of empty-base-class- optimizations.

    -
    -These operations are read-modify-write operations in the sense of the -"synchronizes with" definition (1.10 [intro.multithread]), so both such an operation and the -evaluation that produced the input value synchronize with any evaluation -that reads the updated value. -
    +

    +Both requirements should be relaxed in the sense that the +reference_wrapper should provide typedef's argument_type, +first_argument_type, and second_argument_type based on similar +rules as the weak result type rule (20.8.2 [func.require]/3) does +specify the presence of result_type member types. +

    Discussion:

    -As of N2521, the Working Paper appears to be silent about what -current_exception() should do if it tries to copy the currently handled -exception and its copy constructor throws. 18.8.5 [propagation]/7 says "If the -function needs to allocate memory and the attempt fails, it returns an -exception_ptr object that refers to an instance of bad_alloc.", but -doesn't say anything about what should happen if memory allocation -succeeds but the actual copying fails. +Some parts of the specification of std::function is unnecessarily +restricted to a subset of all callable types (as defined in 20.8.1 [func.def]/3), even though the intent clearly is to be usable for +all of them as described in 20.8.14.2 [func.wrap.func]/1. This +argument becomes strengthened by the fact that current C++0x-compatible +compilers work fine with them:

    +
    #include <functional>
    +#include <iostream>
    +
    +struct A
    +{
    +  int foo(int i) const {return i+1;}
    +};
    +
    +struct B
    +{
    +  int mem;
    +};
    +
    +int main()
    +{
    +  std::function<int(const A&, int)> f(&A::foo);
    +  A a;
    +  std::cout << f(a, 1) << '\n';
    +  std::cout << f.target_type().name() << '\n';
    +  typedef int (A::* target_t)(int) const;
    +  target_t* p = f.target<target_t>();
    +  std::cout << (p != 0) << '\n';
    +  std::function<int(B&)> f2(&B::mem);
    +  B b = { 42 };
    +  std::cout << f2(b) << '\n';
    +  std::cout << f2.target_type().name() << '\n';
    +  typedef int (B::* target2_t);
    +  target2_t* p2 = f2.target<target2_t>();
    +  std::cout << (p2 != 0) << '\n';
    +}
    +
    +

    -I see three alternatives: (1) return an exception_ptr object that refers -to an instance of some fixed exception type, (2) return an exception_ptr -object that refers to an instance of the copy ctor's thrown exception -(but if that has a throwing copy ctor, an infinite loop can occur), or -(3) call terminate(). +The problematics passages are 20.8.14.2.1 [func.wrap.func.con]/10: +

    + +
    template<class F> function(F f);
    +template <class F, class A> function(allocator_arg_t, const A& a, F f);
    +
    +
    +

    ...

    +

    +10 Postconditions: !*this if any of the following hold:

    +
      +
    • +f is a NULL function pointer. +
    • +
    • +f is a NULL member function pointer. +
    • +
    • +F is an instance of the function class template, and !f +
    • +
    +
    +

    -I believe that terminate() is the most reasonable course of action, but -before we go implement that, I wanted to raise this issue. +because it does not consider pointer to data member and all constraints based on +function objects which like 20.8.14.2 [func.wrap.func]/2 or 20.8.14.2.5 [func.wrap.func.targ]/3. The latter two will be resolved by the proposed +resolution of 870 and are therefore not handled here.

    [ -Peter's summary: +Post-Rapperswil: ]

    -

    -The current practice is to not have throwing copy constructors in -exception classes, because this can lead to terminate() as described in -15.5.1 [except.terminate]. Thus calling terminate() in this situation seems -consistent and does not introduce any new problems. -

    +Moved to Tentatively Ready after 5 positive votes on c++std-lib. +
    + +

    [ +Adopted at 2010-11 Batavia +]

    + + + +

    Proposed resolution:

    -However, the resolution of core issue 475 may relax this requirement: +Change 20.8.14.2.1 [func.wrap.func.con]/10+11 as indicated:

    +
    template<class F> function(F f);
    +template <class F, class A> function(allocator_arg_t, const A& a, F f);
    +
    -The CWG agreed with the position that std::uncaught_exception() should -return false during the copy to the exception object and that std::terminate() -should not be called if that constructor exits with an exception. -
    - +

    ...

    -Since throwing copy constructors will no longer call terminate(), option -(3) doesn't seem reasonable as it is deemed too drastic a response in a -recoverable situation. +10 Postconditions: !*this if any of the following hold:

    +
      +
    • +f is a NULL function pointer. +
    • +
    • +f is a NULL pointer to member function pointer. +
    • +
    • +F is an instance of the function class template, and !f +
    • +

    -Option (2) cannot be adopted by itself, because a potential infinite -recursion will need to be terminated by one of the other options. +11 Otherwise, *this targets a copy of f or, +initialized with std::move(f) if f is not a pointer +to member function, and targets a copy of mem_fn(f) if f is a +pointer to member function. [Note: implementations are encouraged +to avoid the use of dynamically allocated memory for small function objects, for +example, where f's target is an object holding only a pointer or +reference to an object and a member function pointer. — end note]

    Discussion:

    -Reading resolution of LWG issue 673 I noticed the following: +The current wording in the standard makes it hard to discriminate the difference +between a "call wrapper" as defined in 20.8.1 [func.def]/5+6:

    -
    void reset(T* pointer p = 0 pointer());

[Note: One implementation technique is to create a private -templated overload. -- end note] +5 A call wrapper type is a type that holds a callable object and supports +a call operation that forwards to that object. +

    +

    +6 A call wrapper is an object of a call wrapper type.

    -This could be cleaned up by mandating the overload as a public deleted -function. In addition, we should probably overload reset on nullptr_t -to be a stronger match than the deleted overload. Words... +and a "forwarding call wrapper" as defined in 20.8.2 [func.require]/4:

    Consider this code:

    - -
    -
    exception_ptr xp;
    -
    try {do_something(); }
    -
    -catch (const runtime_error& ) {xp = current_exception();}
    -
    -...
    -
    -rethrow_exception(xp);
    -
    -

    -Say do_something() throws an exception object of type -range_error. What is the type of the exception object thrown by -rethrow_exception(xp) above? It must have a type of range_error; -if it were of type runtime_error it still isn't possible to -propagate an exception and the exception_ptr/current_exception/rethrow_exception -machinery serves no useful purpose. +The <locale> synopsis in 22.2 [locale.syn] calls out an +explicit specialization for ctype_byname<char>, however no such +specialization is defined in the standard. The only reference I can find to +ctype_byname<char> is 22.3.1.1.2 [locale.facet]:Table 77 +— Required specializations (for facets) which also refers to +ctype_byname<wchar_t> which has no special consideration.

    -Unfortunately, the current wording does not explicitly say that. Different -people read the current wording and come to different conclusions. While it may -be possible to deduce the correct type from the current wording, it would be -much clearer to come right out and explicitly say what the type of the referred -to exception is. +Is the intent an explicit instantiation which would use a slightly +different syntax? Should the explicit specialization simply be struck?

    -I don't like the proposed resolution of 829. The normative text is -unambiguous that the exception_ptr refers to the currently handled -exception. This term has a standard meaning, see 15.3 [except.handle]/8; this is the -exception that throw; would rethrow, see 15.1 [except.throw]/7. -

    -

    -A better way to address this is to simply add the non-normative example -in question as a clarification. The term currently handled exception -should be italicized and cross-referenced.

    -One possible implementation approach that has been used in practice is -for the iterator to set its in_stream pointer to 0 when -it reaches the end of the stream, just like the default ctor does on -initialization.

    -Conformance to the requirement outlined in the Effects clause -can easily be verified in programs by setting eofbit -or failbit in exceptions() of the associated -stream and attempting to iterate past the end of the stream: each -past-the-end access should trigger an exception.

    Discussion:

    -The std::reference_closure type has a deleted copy assignment operator -under the theory that references cannot be assigned, and hence the -assignment of its reference member must necessarily be ill-formed. +Table 33 — MoveConstructible requirements [moveconstructible] and +Table 34 — CopyConstructible requirements [copyconstructible] support +solely the following expression:

    + +
    T t(rv)
    +
    +

    -However, other types, notably std::reference_wrapper and std::function -provide for the "copying of references", and thus the current definition -of std::reference_closure seems unnecessarily restrictive. In particular, -it should be possible to write generic functions using both std::function -and std::reference_closure, but this generality is much harder when -one such type does not support assignment. +where rv is defined to be as "non-const rvalue of type T" and +t as a "modifiable lvalue of type T" in 20.2.1 [utility.arg.requirements]/1.

    +

    -The definition of reference_closure does not necessarily imply direct -implementation via reference types. Indeed, the reference_closure is -best implemented via a frame pointer, for which there is no standard -type. +This causes two different defects:

    + +
      +
    1. -The semantics of assignment are effectively obtained by use of the -default destructor and default copy assignment operator via +We cannot move/copy-initialize a const lvalue of type T as in:

      -
      x.~reference_closure(); new (x) reference_closure(y);
      +
      int get_i();
      +
      +const int i1(get_i());
       

      -So the copy assignment operator generates no significant real burden -to the implementation. +both in Table 33 and in Table 34.

    3. -In [func.referenceclosure] Class template reference_closure, -replace the =delete in the copy assignment operator in the synopsis -with =default. +The single support for

      -
      template<class R , class... ArgTypes > 
      -  class reference_closure<R (ArgTypes...)> { 
      -  public:

      +
      T t(rv)
       

      -In X [func.referenceclosure.cons] Construct, copy, destroy, -add the member function description +in case of CopyConstructible means that we cannot provide an +lvalue as a source of a copy as in

    -Postcondition: *this is a copy of f. +I believe this second defect is due to the fact that this single +expression supported both initialization situations according +to the old (implicit) lvalue reference -> rvalue reference +conversion rules.

    -Returns: *this. +Finally [copyconstructible] refers to some name u which is not part of +the expression, and both [copyconstructible] and [moveconstructible] should +support construction expressions from temporaries - this would be a stylistic +consequence in the light of the new DefaultConstructible requirements +and compared with existing requirements (see e.g. Container requirements or the +output/forward iterator requirements)..

    Discussion:

    -The atomic classes (and class templates) are required to support aggregate -initialization (29.5.1 [atomics.types.integral]p2 / 29.5.2 [atomics.types.address]p1) -yet also have user declared constructors, so cannot be aggregates. -

    -

    -This problem might be solved with the introduction of the proposed -initialization syntax at Antipolis, but the wording above should be altered. -Either strike the sentence as redundant with new syntax, or refer to 'brace -initialization'. +The original intent of vector::data was to match array::data +in providing a simple API with direct access to the contiguous buffer of +elements that could be passed to a "classic" C API. At some point, the return +type became the 'pointer' typedef, which is not derived from the +allocator via allocator traits - it is no longer specified to precisely +T *. The return type of this function should be corrected to no longer +use the typedef.

    -In March, on comp.lang.c++.moderated, I asked what were the -string exception safety guarantees are, because I cannot see -*any* in the working paper, and any implementation I know offers -the strong exception safety guarantee (string unchanged if a -member throws exception). The closest the current draft comes to -offering any guarantees is 21.4 [basic.string], para 3: +20.10.3 [allocator.adaptor.members] p8-9 says:

    -The class template basic_string conforms to the requirements -for a Sequence Container (23.1.1), for a Reversible Container (23.1), -and for an Allocator-aware container (91). The iterators supported by -basic_string are random access iterators (24.1.5). -

    -I take it as saying that this paragraph has *no* implication on -std::basic_string, as basic_string isn't defined in Clause 23 and -this paragraph does not define a *requirement* of Sequence -nor Reversible Container, just of the models defined in Clause 23. -In addition, LWG Issue 718 proposes to remove 23.2 [container.requirements], para 3. -

    -Finally, the fact that no operation on Traits should throw -exceptions has no bearing, except to suggest (since the only -other throws should be allocation, out_of_range, or length_error) -that the strong exception guarantee can be achieved. -

    +

    -The reaction in that group by Niels Dekker, Martin Sebor, and -Bo Persson, was all that this would be worth an LWG issue. +In all other calls where applicable scoped_allocator_adaptor does not +call members of an allocator directly, but rather does so indirectly via +allocator_traits. For example:

    +
    +
    size_type max_size() const;
    +
    +
    +7 Returns: +allocator_traits<OuterAlloc>::max_size(outer_allocator()). +
    +
    +

    -A related issue is that erase() does not throw. This should be -stated somewhere (and again, I don't think that the 23.2 [container.requirements], para 1 -applies here). +Indeed, without the indirection through allocator_traits the +definitions for construct and destroy are likely to fail at +compile time since the outer_allocator() may not have the members +construct and destroy.

    Discussion:

    -Issue 755 added a shrink_to_fit function to std::vector and std::string. -It did not yet deal with std::deque, because of the fundamental -difference between std::deque and the other two container types. The -need for std::deque may seem less evident, because one might think that -for this container, the overhead is a small map, and some number of -blocks that's bounded by a small constant. +With the acceptance of library defect 822 only +direct-initialization is supported, and not copy-initialization in the +requirement sets MoveConstructible and CopyConstructible. This +is usually a good thing, if only the library implementation needs to obey these +restrictions, but the Empire strikes back quickly:

    + +
      +
    1. -The container overhead can in fact be arbitrarily large (i.e. is not -necessarily O(N) where N is the number of elements currently held by the -deque). As Bill Plauger noted in a reflector message, unless the map of -block pointers is shrunk, it must hold at least maxN/B pointers where -maxN is the maximum of N over the lifetime of the deque since its -creation. This is independent of how the map is implemented -(vector-like circular buffer and all), and maxN bears no relation to N, -the number of elements it currently holds. +Affects user-code: std::exception_ptr is defined purely via +requirements, among them CopyConstructible. A strict reading of the +standard would make implementations conforming where std::exception_ptr +has an explicit copy-c'tor and user-code must code defensively. This is a very +unwanted effect for such an important component like +std::exception_ptr.

      +
    2. + +
    3. -Hervé Brönnimann reports a situation where a deque of requests grew very -large due to some temporary backup (the front request hanging), and the -map of the deque grew quite large before getting back to normal. Just -to put some color on it, assuming a deque with 1K pointer elements in -steady regime, that held, at some point in its lifetime, maxN=10M -pointers, with one block holding 128 elements, the spine must be at -least (maxN / 128), in that case 100K. In that case, shrink-to-fit -would allow to reuse about 100K which would otherwise never be reclaimed -in the lifetime of the deque. +Wrong re-use: Recently proposed requirement sets +(NullablePointer as of +N3025, +Hash) or cleanup of existing requirement sets (e.g. iterator requirements as of +N3046) +tend to reuse existing requirement sets, so reusing CopyConstructible +is attempting, even in cases, where the intend is to support copy-initialization +as well.

      +
    4. + +
    5. -An added bonus would be that it *allows* implementations to hang on to -empty blocks at the end (but does not care if they do or not). A -shrink_to_fit would take care of both shrinks, and guarantee that at -most O(B) space is used in addition to the storage to hold the N -elements and the N/B block pointers. +Inconsistency: The current iterator requirements set Table 102 (output +iterator requirements) and Table 103 (forward iterator requirements) demonstrate +quite clearly a strong divergence of copy-semantics: The specified semantics of

      +
      X u(a);
      +X u = a;

      -

      Proposed resolution:

      -To Class template deque 23.3.2 [deque] synopsis, add: +are underspecified compared to the most recent clarifications of the +CopyConstructible requirements, c.f. issue 1309 which is +very unsatisfactory. This will become worse for each further issue that involves +the CopyConstructible specification (for possible directions see 1173).

      -
      void shrink_to_fit();
      -
      +
    6. +

    -To deque capacity 23.3.2.2 [deque.capacity], add: +The suggested resolution is to define two further requirements +implicit-MoveConstructible and implicit-CopyConstructible (or +any other reasonable name like MoveConvertible and +CopyConvertible) each with a very succinct but precise meaning solving +all three problems mentioned above.

    -
    void shrink_to_fit();
    -
    - -
    -Remarks: shrink_to_fit is a non-binding request to reduce memory -use. [Note: The request is non-binding to allow latitude for -implementation-specific optimizations. -- end note] -

    -N2661 -says that there is a class named monotonic_clock. It also says that this -name may be a synonym for system_clock, and that it's conditionally -supported. So the actual requirement is that it can be monotonic or not, -and you can tell by looking at is_monotonic, or it might not exist at -all (since it's conditionally supported). Okay, maybe too much -flexibility, but so be it. +As mentioned on the boost mailing list:

    -when monotonic_clock is not required to exist? +The proposed resolution has two problems:

    +
      +
    • +

      it fails to provide support for non-terminated strings, which +could be easily added and constitutes an important use-case. For +example, the following code would invoke UB with the current +P/R:

      +

      char s[4] = { '0', '1', '0', '1' }; // notice: not null-terminated!
      +bitset<4> b(s, 0, 4);
      +
      +because it requires the evaluation (under the as-if rule, to be fair, +but it doesn't matter) of basic_string<char>(s) +
    • +
    • +

      it promotes a consistency between the two bitset +constructors that take a const std::string& and a +const char*, respectively, while practice established by +std::basic_string would recommend a different set of +parameters.

    Discussion:

    -Nick: maybe instead of saying that chrono::monotonic_clock is -conditionally supported, we could say that it's always there, but not -necessarily supported.. +There are several constructors and creation functions of std::tuple +that impose requirements on it's arguments, that are unnecessary +restrictive and don't match the intention for the supported argument +types. This is related to the fact that tuple is supposed to accept both +object types and lvalue-references and the usual MoveConstructible and +CopyConstructible requirements are bad descriptions for non-const +references. Some examples:

    + +
      +
    1. -Beman: I'd prefer a typedef that identifies the best clock to use for -wait_for locks. +20.4.2.1 [tuple.cnstr] before p.4 and p.8, resp.:

      + +
      explicit tuple(const Types&...);
      +
      +
      +4 Requires: Each type in Types shall be copy constructible. +
      + +
      tuple(const tuple& u) = default;
      +
      +
      +8 Requires: Each type in Types shall satisfy the requirements of +CopyConstructible (Table 34). + +
      +
      +

      -Tom: combine the two concepts; create a duration clock type, but keep -the is_monotonic test. +A tuple that contains lvalue-references to non-const can never +satisfy the CopyConstructible requirements. CopyConstructible +requirements refine the MoveConstructible requirements and +this would require that these lvalue-references could bind +rvalues. But the core language does not allow that. Even, if we +would interpret that requirement as referring to the underlying +non-reference type, this requirement would be wrong as well, +because there is no reason to disallow a type such as

      + +
      struct NoMoveNoCopy {
      +  NoMoveNoCopy(NoMoveNoCopy&&) = delete;
      +  NoMoveNoCopy(const NoMoveNoCopy&) = delete;
      +  ...
      +}:
      +
      +

      -Howard: if we create a duration_clock type, is it a typedef or an -entirely true type? +for the instantiation of std::tuple<NoMoveNoCopy&> and +that of it's copy constructor.

      +

      -There was broad preference for a typedef. +A more reasonable requirement for this example would be to require that +"is_constructible<Ti, const Ti&>::value shall +evaluate to true for all Ti in Types". In this case +the special reference-folding and const-merging rules of references +would make this well-formed in all cases. We could also add the further +constraint "if Ti is an object type, it shall satisfy the +CopyConstructible requirements", but this additional +requirement seems not really to help here. Ignoring it would only mean +that if a user would provide a curious object type C that +satisfies the std::is_constructible<C, const C&> +test, but not the "C is CopyConstructible" test would +produce a tuple<C> that does not satisfy the +CopyConstructible requirements as well.

      +
    2. + +
    3. -Move to Open. Howard to provide wording to add a typedef for -duration_clock and to replace all uses of monotonic_clock in function -calls and signatures with duration_clock. +20.4.2.1 [tuple.cnstr] before p.6 and p.10, resp.:

    tuple(tuple&& u);
    +
    +10 Requires: Each type in Types shall shall +satisfy the requirements of MoveConstructible (Table 33). +
    +
    +

    -After further thought I do not believe that creating a duration_clock typedef -is the best way to proceed. An implementation may not need to use a -time_point to implement the wait_for functions. +We have a similar problem as in (a): Non-const lvalue-references +are intended template arguments for std::tuple, but cannot satisfy +the MoveConstructible requirements. In this case the correct +requirements would be

    +
    +is_constructible<Ti, Ui>::value shall evaluate to true +for all Ti in Types and for all Ui in +UTypes +
    +

    -For example, on POSIX systems sleep_for can be implemented in terms of -nanosleep which takes only a duration in terms of nanoseconds.

    -LWG issue 402 replaced "new" with "::new" in the placement -new-expression in 20.8.8.1 [allocator.members]. I believe the rationale -given in 402 applies also to the following other contexts: +6 Requires: is_constructible<Ti, Ui>::value == +true for eEach type Ti in +Types shall satisfy the requirements of +MoveConstructible (Table 33) fromand for the +corresponding type Ui in UTypes. +sizeof...(Types) == sizeof...(UTypes).

    Discussion:

    -During the Sophia Antipolis meeting it was decided to split-off some -parts of the -n2647 -("Concurrency modifications for basic_string") -proposal into a separate issue, because these weren't actually -concurrency-related. The here proposed changes refer to the recent -update document -n2668 -and attempt to take advantage of the -stricter structural requirements. -

    -

    -Indeed there exists some leeway for more guarantees that would be -very useful for programmers, especially if interaction with transactionary -or exception-unaware C API code is important. This would also allow -compilers to take advantage of more performance optimizations, because -more functions can have throw() specifications. This proposal uses the -form of "Throws: Nothing" clauses to reach the same effect, because -there already exists a different issue in progress to clean-up the current -existing "schizophrenia" of the standard in this regard. -

    -

    -Due to earlier support for copy-on-write, we find the following -unnecessary limitations for C++0x: -

    - -
      -
    1. -Missing no-throw guarantees: data() and c_str() simply return -a pointer to their guts, which is a non-failure operation. This should -be spelled out. It is also noteworthy to mention that the same -guarantees should also be given by the size query functions, -because the combination of pointer to content and the length is -typically needed during interaction with low-level API. -
    2. -
    3. -Missing complexity guarantees: data() and c_str() simply return -a pointer to their guts, which is guaranteed O(1). This should be -spelled out. -
    4. -
    5. -Missing reading access to the terminating character: Only the -const overload of operator[] allows reading access to the terminator -char. For more intuitive usage of strings, reading access to this -position should be extended to the non-const case. In contrast -to C++03 this reading access should now be homogeneously -an lvalue access. -
    6. -
    - -

    -The proposed resolution is split into a main part (A) and a -secondary part (B) (earlier called "Adjunct Adjunct Proposal"). -(B) extends (A) by also making access to index position -size() of the at() overloads a no-throw operation. This was -separated, because this part is theoretically observable in -specifically designed test programs. +In 26.8 [c.math]p12 +The templates defined in <cmath> replace the C99 macros +with the same names. The templates have the following declarations:

    -

    [ -San Francisco: -]

    +
    namespace std {
    +template <class T> bool signbit(T x);
    +template <class T> int fpclassify(T x);

    +template <class T> bool isinf(T x);
    +template <class T> bool isnan(T x);
    +template <class T> bool isnormal(T x);
    +template <class T> bool isgreater(T x, T y);

    +template <class T> bool islessgreater(T x, T y);
    +template <class T> bool isunordered(T x, T y);
    +}
    +
    +

    +and p13: +

    +13 The templates behave the same as the C99 macros with corresponding +names defined in C99 7.12.3, Classification macros, and C99 7.12.14, +Comparison macros in the C standard. +

    Discussion:

    +

    +In C++03 this was valid code: +

    -forward_list member functions that take -a forward_list::iterator (denoted position in the -function signatures) argument have the following precondition: +
    #include <vector>
    +#include <iterator>
     
    -       

    -
    +int main() { + typedef std::vector<bool> Cont; + Cont c; + std::back_insert_iterator<Cont> it = std::back_inserter(c); + *it = true; +} +
    -Requires: position is dereferenceable or equal -to before_begin(). +

    +In C++0x this code does no longer compile because of an ambiguity error for this +operator= overload pair: +

    -
    -

    +

    back_insert_iterator<Container>&
    +operator=(typename Container::const_reference value);
     
    -I believe what's actually intended is this:
    +back_insert_iterator<Container>&
    +operator=(typename Container::value_type&& value);
    +
    -

    -
    +

    +This is so, because for proxy-containers like std::vector<bool> +the const_reference usually is a non-reference type and in this case +it's identical to Container::value_type, thus forming the ambiguous +overload pair +

    -Requires: position is in the range -[before_begin(), end()). +
    back_insert_iterator<Container>&
    +operator=(bool value);
     
    -       
    -

    +back_insert_iterator<Container>& +operator=(bool&& value); +

    -That is, when it's dereferenceable, position must point -into *this, not just any forward_list object. +

    +The same problem exists for std::back_insert_iterator, +std::front_insert_iterator, and std::insert_iterator. +

    + +

    +One possible fix would be to require that const_reference of a proxy +container must not be the same as the value_type, but this would break +earlier valid code. The alternative would be to change the first signature to +

    + +
    back_insert_iterator<Container>&
    +operator=(const typename Container::const_reference& value);
    +
    + +

    +This would have the effect that this signature always expects an lvalue +or rvalue, but it would not create an ambiguity relative to the second form with +rvalue-references. [For all non-proxy containers the signature will be the same +as before due to reference-collapsing and const folding rules] +

    -

    [ -San Francisco: +Post-Rapperswil ]

    +

    +This problem is not restricted to the unspeakable vector<bool>, but is already existing for other proxy +containers like gcc's rope class. The following code does no longer work ([Bug libstdc++/44963]): +

    +
    #include <iostream>
    +#include <ext/rope>
    +
    +using namespace std;
    +
    +int main()
    +{
    +     __gnu_cxx::crope line("test");
    +     auto ii(back_inserter(line));
    +
    +     *ii++ = 'm'; // #1
    +     *ii++ = 'e'; // #2
    +
    +     cout << line << endl;
    +}
    +
    +

    +Both lines marked with #1 and #2 issue now an error because the library has properly implemented the current +wording state (Thanks to Paolo Calini for making me aware of this real-life example). +

    -This formulation has several problems: +See Appendix 1 - Additional Details

    -
      -
    • -Implementation details are exposed, since initialization is specified in -the interface. This over-constrains implementations without offsetting -user benefits. The form of initialization specified may be less than -maximally efficient on some platforms. -
    • -
    • -Use of the objects is more expensive in terms of number of machine level -instructions. See Implementation experience below. -

    • -Depending on the compiler, some cost may be incurred by each translation unit -that includes the header, even if the objects are not used.

    -The original plan was to eliminate these problems by applying the C++0x -constexpr feature. See LWG issue 832.

    Certain functions in the C++ standard library report errors via a - std::error_code (19.4.2.2) object.

The implementation shall define the - possible values of value() for each of these error categories. [Example: For - operating systems that are based on POSIX, implementations are encouraged to - define the std::system_category() values as identical to the POSIX errno values, - with additional values as defined by the operating system's documentation. - Implementations for operating systems that are not based on POSIX are - encouraged to define values identical to the operating system's values. For - errors that do not originate from the operating system, the implementation may - provide enums for the associated values --end example]

    +[ Note: If a program casts an lvalue to an rvaluexvalue while passing that lvalue to a library function (e.g. by calling the function with the argument move(x)), the program is effectively asking that function to treat that lvalue as a temporary.

    -Three interpretations: -

    -
      -
    1. -The operator[] overload is indeed allowed to throw an exception -(via test(), if pos corresponds to an invalid bit position) which does -not leave the call frame. In this case this function cannot be a -constexpr function, because test() is not, due to -5.19 [expr.const]/2, last bullet. -
    2. -
    3. -The intend was not to throw an exception in test in case of an -invalid bit position. There is only little evidence for this interpretation. -

    5. -The intend was that operator[] should not throw any exception, -but that test has the contract to do so, if the provided bit position -is invalid. -
    6. -
    -

    -Construction of a regex_token_iterator (28.12.2 [re.tokiter]/6+) usually -requires the provision of a sequence of integer values, which -can currently be done via a std::vector<int> or -a C array of int.

This could be done as a pure addition or one could -even consider replacement. The author suggests the -replacement strategy (A), but provides an alternative additive -proposal (B) as a fall-back, because of the handiness of this -range type: +pair and tuple constructors and assignment operators use +std::move when they should use std::forward.

        +pair's class definition in N3092 20.3.5.2 [pairs.pair] +contains "pair(const pair&) = default;" and +"pair& operator=(pair&& p);". The latter is described by +20.3.5.2 [pairs.pair] p.12-13. +

        +"pair(const pair&) = default;" is a user-declared explicitly defaulted +copy constructor. According to 12.8 [class.copy]/10, this inhibits +the implicitly-declared move constructor. pair should be move constructible. +(12.8 [class.copy]/7 explains that "pair(pair<U, V>&& p)" +will never be instantiated to move pair<T1, T2> to pair<T1, T2>.)
        +"pair& operator=(pair&& p);" is a user-provided move +assignment operator (according to 8.4.2 [dcl.fct.def.default]/4: "A +special member function is user-provided if it is user-declared and not explicitly defaulted +on its first declaration."). According to 12.8 [class.copy]/20, this inhibits +the implicitly-declared copy assignment operator. pair +should be copy assignable, and was in C++98/03. (Again, +12.8 [class.copy]/7 explains that "operator=(const pair<U, V>& p)" +will never be instantiated to copy pair<T1, T2> to pair<T1, T2>.)
        +Additionally, "pair& operator=(pair&& p);" is +unconditionally defined, whereas according to 12.8 [class.copy]/25, +defaulted copy/move assignment operators are defined as +deleted in several situations, such as when non-static data +members of reference type are present. +

        +If "pair(const pair&) = default;" and "pair& operator=(pair&& p);" +were removed from pair's class definition in 20.3.5.2 [pairs.pair] and from +20.3.5.2 [pairs.pair]/12-13, pair would +receive implicitly-declared copy/move constructors and +copy/move assignment operators, and 12.8 [class.copy]/25 would +apply. The implicitly-declared copy/move constructors +would be trivial when T1 and T2 have trivial copy/move +constructors, according to 12.8 [class.copy]/13, and similarly for the +assignment operators, according to12.8 [class.copy]/27. Notes could +be added as a reminder that these functions would be +implicitly-declared, but such notes would not be necessary +(the Standard Library specification already assumes a +high level of familiarity with the Core Language, and +casual readers will simply assume that pair is copyable +and movable). +

        +Alternatively, pair could be given explicitly-defaulted +copy/move constructors and copy/move assignment +operators. This is a matter of style. +

        +tuple is also affected. tuple's class definition in 20.4 [tuple] contains: +

        tuple(const tuple&) = default;
        +tuple(tuple&&);
        +tuple& operator=(const tuple&);
        +tuple& operator=(tuple&&);
        +
        +They should all be removed or all be explicitly-defaulted, +to be consistent with pair. Additionally, 20.4.2.1 [tuple.cnstr]/8-9 specifies the +behavior of an explicitly defaulted function, which is currently inconsistent with +pair. + +

        [ +Resolution proposed by ballot comment: +]

        -The third and fourth constructor initializes the member subs -to hold a copy of the sequence of integer values pointed to -by the iterator range [&submatches,&submatches + N) -and [submatches.begin(),submatches.end()), respectively. +Either remove "pair(const pair&) = default;" and +"pair& operator=(pair&& p);" from pair's class +definition in 20.3.5.2 [pairs.pair] and from 20.3.5.2 [pairs.pair] p.12-13, or +give pair explicitly-defaulted copy/move constructors and copy/move assignment operators.
        +Change tuple to match. +

    -The current working draft -(N2798), -section 20.8.15.2.1 [util.smartptr.shared.const] declares -shared_ptr's constructor that takes a rvalue reference to unique_ptr and -auto_ptr as being explicit, affecting several valid smart pointer use -cases that would take advantage of this conversion being implicit, for -example: +There is no compelling reason to assume a +heterogeneous tuple of two elements holds a pair of +iterators forming a valid range.

    -It seems that this constructor was made explicit to mimic the conversion -from auto_ptr in pre-rvalue reference days, which accepts both lvalue and -rvalue references. Although this decision was valid back then, C++0x -allows the user to express in a clear and non verbose manner when he wants -move semantics to be employed, be it implicitly (use case 1) or explicitly -(use case 2). +LWG 1281 was discussed in Pittsburgh, and the decision +there was to accept the typedef as proposed and move to +Review. Unfortunately the issue was accidentally applied +to the FCD, and incorrectly.

    [ -Herve adds: +Post-Rapperswil, Pablo provided wording: ]

    +

    +The original ballot comment reads simply: "pointer_traits should have a +size_type for completeness." The additional details reveal, however, +that the desire for a size_type is actually driven by the needs +of allocator_traits. The allocator_traits template should get its +default difference_type from pointer_traits but if it did, +it should get its size_type from the same source. Unfortunately, +there is no obvious meaning for size_type in pointer_traits. +

    +

    +Alisdair suggested, however, that the natural relationship between +difference_type and size_type can be expressed simply by the +std::make_unsigned<T> metafunction. Using this metafunction, +we can easily define size_type for allocator_traits without +artificially adding size_type to pointer_traits. +

    -Jens: Checking that code is well-formed and then returning true/false -sounds like speculative compilation. John Spicer would really dislike -this. Please find another wording suggesting speculative compilation. +When preparing the wording for this issue I first thought about adding both u16streampos and u32streampos +to the [iostream.forward] header <iosfwd> synopsis similar to streampos and wstreampos, +but decided not to do so, because the IO library does not yet actively support the char16_t and char32_t +character types. Adding those would misleadingly imply that they would be part of the iostreams. Also, the addition +would make them also similarly equal to a typedef to fpos<mbstate_t>, as for streampos and +wstreampos, so there is no loss for users that would like to use the proper fpos instantiation for +these character types.

    -Recommend Open. +Additionally the way of referencing was chosen to follow the style suggested by NB comment +GB 108.

    -In 30.4.4 [thread.lock.algorithm], the generic try_lock effects (p2) say that a failed -try_lock is when it either returns false or throws an exception. In -the event a call to try_lock does fail, by either returning false or -throwing an exception, it states that unlock shall be called for all -prior arguments. Then the returns clause (p3) goes on to state -in a note that after returning, either all locks are locked or none -will be. So what happens if multiple locks fail on try_lock? -

    -The first lock's try_lock succeeded but, being a prior argument to a -lock whose try_lock failed, it gets unlocked as per the effects clause -of 30.4.4 [thread.lock.algorithm]. However, 2 locks remain locked in this case but the return -clause states that either all arguments shall be locked or none will -be. This seems to be a contradiction unless the intent is for -implementations to make an effort to unlock not only prior arguments, -but the one that failed and those that come after as well.

    [ -Batavia (2009-05): +Post-Rapperswil, Daniel provided wording ]

    -
    -We agree with the proposed resolution. -Move to Tentatively Ready. -
    - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -Add to 18.5 [support.start.term] Table 20 (Header -<cstdlib> synopsis) Functions: +The signatures of the shuffle and random_shuffle algorithms are different +in regard to the support of rvalues and lvalues of the provided generator:

    -
    _Exit
    +

    +

    template<class RandomAccessIterator, class RandomNumberGenerator>
    +void random_shuffle(RandomAccessIterator first,
    +RandomAccessIterator last,
    +RandomNumberGenerator&& rand);
     
    +

    -Add before the description of abort(void): -

    void _Exit [[noreturn]] (int status)
    -

    +void shuffle(RandomAccessIterator first,
    +RandomAccessIterator last,
    +UniformRandomNumberGenerator& g);
    +
    +

    -

    -The function _Exit(int status) has additional behavior in this -International Standard: +The first form uses the perfect forwarding signature and that change compared to +C++03 was done intentionally as shown in the first rvalue proposal +papers.

    -
      -
    • -The program is terminated without executing destructors for objects of -automatic, thread, or static storage duration and without calling the -functions passed to atexit() (3.6.3 [basic.start.term]). -
    • -
    -
    -
    - +

    +While it is true, that random generators are excellent examples of stateful +functors, there still exist good reasons to support rvalues as arguments: +

    +

    +

      +
    1. If one of the shuffle algorithms is called with the intention to shuffle items with a reproducible ordering + from a given generator class, it makes sense to create a generator exactly at the call point. +
    2. +
    3. Other algorithms with similar need for stateful functors (like std::generate and std::generate_n) + accept both rvalues and lvalues as well. +
    4. +
    5. Given the deduction rules for perfect forwarding it is hard for a user to produce code that does the wrong thing +unintentionally. Any lvalue generator will deduce an lvalue-reference and behave as in C++03. In the specific +cases, where rvalues are provided, the argument will be accepted instead of being rejected. +
    6. +
    +

    +

    +Arguments have been raised that accepting rvalues is error-prone or even fundamentally wrong. The author of this +proposal disagrees with that position for two additional reasons: +

    +

    +

      +
    1. Enforcing lvalues as arguments won't prevent user code to enforce what they +want. So given +
      my_generator get_generator(int size);
      +
      +instead of writing +
      std::vector<int> v = ...;
      +std::shuffle(v.begin(), v.end(), get_generator(v.size()));
      +
      +they will just write +
      std::vector<int> v = ...;
      +auto gen = get_generator(v.size());
      +std::shuffle(v.begin(), v.end(), gen);
      +
      +and feel annoyed about the need for it. +
    2. +
    3. Generators may be copyable and movable, and random number engines are required to be CopyConstructible +and this is obviously a generally useful property for such objects. It is also useful and sometimes necessary to start a +generator with exactly a specific seed again and again and thus to provide a new generator (or a copy) for each call. The +CopyConstructible requirements allow providing rvalues of generators and thus this idiom must be useful as well. +Therefore preventing [random_]shuffle to accept rvalues is an unnecessary restriction which doesn't prevent any +user-error, if there would exist one. +

    +These two distributions have a member function called +densities() which returns a vector<double>. The +distribution is templated on RealType.

    -The reference to iterator in semantics for back should -also allow for const_iterator when called on a const-qualified -container. This would be ugly to specify in the 03 standard, but is -quite easy with the addition of auto in this new standard. -

    +The mutex requirements force try_lock to be +noexcept(true). However, where they are used by the +generic algorithms, those relax this requirement and say +that try_lock may throw. This means the requirement is +too stringent, also a non-throwing try_lock does not allow +for a diagnostic such as system_error that lock() +will give us.

    + +Providing only three different possible values for the enum +launch and saying that launch::any means either +launch::sync or launch::async is very restricting. This +hinders future implementors to provide clever +infrastructures that can simply by used by a call to +async(launch::any,...). Also there is no hook for an +implementation to provide additional alternatives to launch +enumeration and no useful means to combine those (i.e. +interpret them like flags). We believe something like +async(launch::sync | launch::async, ...) should be allowed +and can become especially useful if one could say also +something like async(launch::any & ~launch::sync, ....) +respectively. This flexibility might limit the features usable +in the function called through async(), but it will allow a +path to effortless profit from improved hardware/software +without complicating the programming model when just +using async(launch::any,...) + +

    +Change in 30.6.1 [futures.overview] 'enum class launch' to allow +further implementation defined values and provide +the following bit-operators on the launch values +(operator|, operator&, operator~ delivering a +launch value). +

    +Note: a possible implementation might use an +unsigned value to represent the launch enums, +but we shouldn't limit the standard to just 32 or 64 +available bits in that case and also should keep +the launch enums in their own enum namespace. +

    +Change [future.async] p3 according to the +changes to enum launch. change --launch::any to +"the implementation may choose any of the +policies it provides." Note: this can mean that an +implementation may restrict the called function to +take all required information by copy in case it will +be called in a different address space, or even, on +a different processor type.

    -Change 18.8.3.3 [terminate]: +The current working draft does specify the default c'tor of default_delete in a manner +to guarantee static initialization for default-constructed objects of static storage duration +as a consequence of the acceptance of the proposal n2976 +but this paper overlooked the fact that the suggested declaration does not ensure that the type +will be a trivial type. The type default_delete was always considered as a simple wrapper for +calling delete or delete[], respectivly and should be a trivial type.

    -Change 18.8.5 [propagation]: +In agreement with the new settled core language rules this easy to realize by just changing the declaration to +

    constexpr default_delete() = default;

    +

    +This proposal also automatically solves the problem, that the semantics of the default constructor of the +partial specialization default_delete<T[]> is not specified at all. By defaulting its default constructor +as well, the semantics are well-defined.

    1. Change the synopsis of the primary template definition of default_delete in [unique.ptr.dltr.dflt] as indicated: +
      namespace std {
      +  template <class T> struct default_delete {

      +
    2. +
    3. +Remove the prototype specification of the default_delete default constructor in [unique.ptr.dltr.dflt]/1. This +brings it in harmony with the style used in the partial specialization default_delete<T[]>. Since there are +neither implied nor explicit members, there is no possibility to misinterpret what the constructor does: +
      constexpr default_delete();
      +
      +1 Effects: Default constructs a default_delete object. +

    -      function& operator=(F&&);
    -    ...
    -};
    +

    The current WP N3126 contains ambiguous statements about the +behaviour of functions wait_for/wait_until in +case the future refers to a deferred function. Moreover, I believe +it describes a disputable intent, different from the one contained +in the original async proposals, that may have been introduced +inadvertently during the "async cleanup" that occurred recently. +Consider the following case:

    +
    +
    int f();  
    +future<int> x = async(launch::deferred, f);
    +future_status s = x.wait_for(chrono::milliseconds(100));
     
    - -

    -Each of the 3 pairs above are ambiguous. We need only one of each pair, and we -could do it with either one. If we choose the F&& version we -need to bring decay into the definition to get the pass-by-value behavior. -In the proposed wording I've gotten lazy and just used the pass-by-value signature. -

    +

    This example raises two questions:

    +
      +
    1. is f invoked?
    2. +
    3. what is the value of s?
    4. +
    +

    According to the current WP, the answer to question 1 is yes, +because 30.6.9/3 says "The first call to a function waiting for the +associated asynchronous state created by this async call to become +ready shall invoke the deferred function in the thread that called +the waiting function". The answer to question 2, however, is not as +clear. According to 30.6.6/23, s should be +future_status::deferred because x refers to a +deferred function that is not running, but it should also be +future_status::ready because after executing f +(and we saw that f is always executed) the state becomes +ready. By the way, the expression "deferred function that is not +running" is very unfortunate in itself, because it may apply to +both the case where the function hasn't yet started, as well as the +case where it was executed and completed.

    +

    While we clearly have a defect in the WP answering to question +2, it is my opinion that the answer to question 1 is wrong, which +is even worse. Consider that the execution of the function +f can take an arbitrarily long time. Having +wait_for() invoke f is a potential violation of +the reasonable expectation that the execution of +x.wait_for(chrono::milliseconds(100)) shall take at most +100 milliseconds plus a delay dependent on the quality of implementation +and the quality of management (as described in paper N3128). +In fact, previous versions of the WP +clearly specified that only function wait() is required to +execute the deferred function, while wait_for() and +wait_until() shouldn't.

    +

    The proposed resolution captures the intent that +wait_for() and wait_until() should never attempt +to invoke the deferred function. In other words, the P/R provides +the following answers to the two questions above:

    +
      +
    1. no
    2. +
    3. future_status::deferred
    4. +
    +

    In order to simplify the wording, the definition of deferred +function has been tweaked so that the function is no longer +considered deferred once its evaluation has started, as suggested +by Howard.

    +

    Discussions in the reflector questioned whether +wait_for() and wait_until() should return +immediately or actually wait hoping for a second thread to execute +the deferred function. I believe that waiting could be useful only +in a very specific scenario but detrimental in the general case and +would introduce another source of ambiguity: should +wait_for() return future_status::deferred or +future_status::timeout after the wait? Therefore the P/R +specifies that wait_for/wait_until shall return +immediately, which is simpler, easier to explain and more useful in +the general case.

    Change 17.6.4.2 [res.on.headers], Headers, paragraph 1, as indicated:

    -
    +true only if the two objects refer to the same match +

    -A C++ header may include other C++ -headers.[footnote] A C++ header shall provide -the declarations and definitions that appear in its synopsis -(3.2 [basic.def.odr]). A C++ header shown in its synopsis as including -other C++ headers shall provide the declarations and definitions that appear in -the synopses of those other headers. +It is not really clear what this means: The current specification would allow for an +implementation to return true, only if the address values of m1 and +m2 are the same. While this approach is unproblematic in terms of used operations +this is also a bit unsatisfactory. With identity equality alone there seems to be no convincing +reason to provide this operator at all. It could for example also refer to an comparison based +on iterator values. In this case a user should better know that this will be done, because +there is no guarantee at all that inter-container comparison of iterators +is a feasible operation. This was a clear outcome of the resolution provided in +N3066 +for LWG issue 446. +It could also mean that a character-based comparison of the individual sub_match +elements should be done - this would be equivalent to applying operator== to +the subexpressions, prefix and suffix.
