A proposal to add a generalized callable negator (Revision 1)

by Tomasz Kamiński

Excerpt:

This proposal is to add function template not_fn that will allow to create negator of any callable object.

  • Change the requirements of not_fn to allow wrapping of move-only types.
  • Added missing Throws clause.
  • Included changes to 20.10 [function.objects]/2 section.
  • Corrected link to "Generic (Polymorphic) Lambda Expressions" proposal.
  • Changed formating of the document.

std::rand replacement

by Zhihao Yuan

Excerpt:

We want to deprecate std::rand friends, while “deprecation without a replacement” is a valid concern. This paper

  1. Propose replacement to the std::rand friends. As a global uniform random number generator, std::rand is considered both handy and useful.
  2. Expose the most widely-used combos from C++11 <random> without pushing the users to learn the whole design of <random>. Smoothing the learning curve can usually optimize the acceptance.

A more common version of algorithm std::partition_copy

by Vladimir Grigoriev

Excerpt:

The existent version of algorithm std::partition_copy has limited capabilities. In fact this algorithm is similar to algorithm std::copy but instead of copying all elements of the source sequence in one destination sequence it redirects all elements of the source sequence in either of two destination sequences depending on the given predicate. As in the first case in the second case all elements of the source sequence are processed.

However sometimes there is a need to process only that elements of the source sequence that satisfy some criteria. To demonstrate the idea let consider a simple task to copy all positive elements of an integral array in one container and all negative elements of the same array in some other container without touching elements equal to zero. ...

Proposal to Add Multi-Dimensional Support to std::array

by Daryle Walker

Excerpt:

The std::array class template adapts array types to standard library classes. But the adaptation is only for the outermost level; the inner dimensions of a multidimensional array type are not considered. This proposal is to change std::array to take multiple dimensions as variadic template arguments.

A proposal to add a utility class to represent optional objects (Revision 5)

by Fernando Cacciola, Andrzej Krzemieński

Excerpt:

Class template optional<T> proposed here is a type that may or may not store a value of type T in its storage space. Its interface allows to query if a value of type T is currently stored, and if so, to access it. The interface is based on Fernando Cacciola's Boost.Optional library, shipping since March, 2003, and widely used. It requires no changes to core language, and breaks no existing code.

Working Draft Technical Specification - URI

by Glyn Matthews, Dean Michael Berris

Excerpt:

The scope of this Technical Specification will include a single std::experimental::uri type, specifications about how the are intended to be processed and extended, including some additional helper types and functions. It will include a std::experimental::uri_builder type to build a URI from its components. Finally, it will include types and functions for percent encoding, URI references, reference resolution and URI normalization and comparison.
