[Ed. Note: Although labeled "A look at C++14," not all of these papers are for C++14, and regardless of timeframe not all will be adopted. But it is a useful look at what's on the commitee's radar.]
As we gear up for the Bristol meeting that starts on April 15, the committee members now are busily reading and preparing positions on the many papers to be considered at the meeting.
Since our last meeting in Portland, we have a recent-record-level 160 technical papers, most of which are proposals that will need to be considered and discussed at the face-to-face meeting.
Those papers have been posted here; see the blog's Standardization category. Most recently, the papers have been posted individually with crafted excerpts, and many committee members have found that useful and already follow the mailings primarily here on the blog like everyone else.
However, it's not just the committee members who are interested in these proposals. The Meeting C++ blog has posted the first of a multi-part series of "digest" summaries of the papers in the March mailing (they skipped the January mailing). In this first installment, they summarize a first batch of papers...
A look at C++14: Papers Part I
This is the first Part of n, or lets say many entries in this blog. In total I hope to be able to cover most papers in 3-4 blog posts, giving the reader an overview over the suggestions and changes for C++ at the coming C++ Committee Meeting in April. In total there are 98 Papers, so I will skip some, but try to get as much covered as possible. I'll skip papers with Meeting Minutes for sure, and try to focus on those focusing on C++11 or C++14 features. As the papers are ordered by there Number (N3522 being the first), I'll go top down, so every blog post will contain different papers from different fields of C++ Standardization. As N352-24 are Reports about Active Issues, Defects and Closed Issues I'll skip them for now, also I will not read through Meeting Minutes and such.
