Lightweight Drawing Library -- Objectives, Requirements, Strategies

by Beman Dawes

Excerpt:

This paper suggests objectives, requirements, and strategies for SG13, the C++ committee's graphics study group. These ideas were presented to SG13 at their organizational meeting in Chicago on September 28th. They are my personal views and do not necessarily represent the views of other SG13 members. The general ideas presented here were developed over a number years watching endless discussions on the Boost developers list that never reached consensus, let alone produce a tangible library proposal.

Objective: Success

This paper isn't about the technical aspects of a library technical specification (TS) for a lightweight drawing library -- rather it presents an approach to creating such a TS in a way that maximizes the chance of success. ...

Any Library Proposal (Revision 3)

by Beman Dawes, Kevlin Henney, Daniel Krügler

Excerpt:

This paper proposes a type-safe container for single values of value types. The C++ standards committee is planning to include the proposal in a library Technical Specification (TS).

The proposal is based on the Boost Any Library (see www.boost.org/libs/any). The Boost version of library has been in wide use for over a decade, and the library has been implemented at least twice in addition to the Boost implementation. The proposal is a pure addition to the standard library, requires no modifications to any C++14 standard library components, requires no compiler support, and will have no effect on existing namespace-disciplined code.
