How to submit an issue

+ +
    +
  1. +Mail your issue to the author of this list. +
  2. +
  3. +Specify a short descriptive title. If you fail to do so, the subject line of your +mail will be used as the issue title. +
  4. +
  5. +If the "From" on your email is not the name you wish to appear as issue submitter, +then specify issue submitter. +
  6. +
  7. +Provide a brief discussion of the problem you wish to correct. Refer to the latest +working draft or standard using [section.tag] and paragraph numbers where appropriate. +
  8. +
  9. +Provide proposed wording. This should indicate exactly how you want the standard +to be changed. General solution statements belong in the discussion area. This +area contains very clear and specific directions on how to modify the current +draft. If you are not sure how to word a solution, you may omit this part. +But your chances of a successful issue greatly increase if you attempt wording. +
  10. +
  11. +It is not necessary for you to use html markup. However, if you want to, you can +<ins>insert text like this</ins> and <del>delete text like +this</del>. The only strict requirement is to communicate clearly to +the list maintainer exactly how you want your issue to look. +
  12. +
  13. +It is not necessary for you to specify other html font/formatting +mark-up, but if you do the list maintainer will attempt to respect your +formatting wishes (as described by html markup, or other common idioms). +
  14. +
  15. +It is not necessary for you to specify open date or last modified date (the date +of your mail will be used). +
  16. +
  17. +It is not necessary for you to cross reference other issues, but you can if you +like. You do not need to form the hyperlinks when you do, the list maintainer will +take care of that. +
  18. +
  19. +One issue per email is best. +
  20. +
  21. +Between the time you submit the issue, and the next mailing deadline +(date at the top of the Revision History), you own this issue. +You control the content, the stuff that is right, the stuff that is +wrong, the format, the misspellings, etc. You can even make the issue +disappear if you want. Just let the list maintainer know how you want +it to look, and he will try his best to accommodate you. After the +issue appears in an official mailing, you no longer enjoy exclusive +ownership of it. +

    Discussion:

    -

    vector<bool> is not a container as its reference and -pointer types are not references and pointers.

    - -

    Also it forces everyone to have a space optimization instead of a -speed one.

    - -

    See also: 99-0008 == N1185 Vector<bool> is -Nonconforming, Forces Optimization Choice.

    - -

    [In Santa Cruz the LWG felt that this was Not A Defect.]

    - - -

    [In Dublin many present felt that failure to meet Container -requirements was a defect. There was disagreement as to whether -or not the optimization requirements constituted a defect.]

    - - -

    [The LWG looked at the following resolutions in some detail: -
    -     * Not A Defect.
    -     * Add a note explaining that vector<bool> does not meet -Container requirements.
    -     * Remove vector<bool>.
    -     * Add a new category of container requirements which -vector<bool> would meet.
    -     * Rename vector<bool>.
    -
    -No alternative had strong, wide-spread, support and every alternative -had at least one "over my dead body" response.
    -
    -There was also mention of a transition scheme something like (1) add -vector_bool and deprecate vector<bool> in the next standard. (2) -Remove vector<bool> in the following standard.]

    - - -

    [Modifying container requirements to permit returning proxies -(thus allowing container requirements conforming vector<bool>) -was also discussed.]

    - - -

    [It was also noted that there is a partial but ugly workaround in -that vector<bool> may be further specialized with a customer -allocator.]

    [Kona: Herb Sutter presented his paper J16/99-0035==WG21/N1211, -vector<bool>: More Problems, Better Solutions. Much discussion -of a two step approach: a) deprecate, b) provide replacement under a -new name. LWG straw vote on that: 1-favor, 11-could live with, 2-over -my dead body. This resolution was mentioned in the LWG report to the -full committee, where several additional committee members indicated -over-my-dead-body positions.]

    - - -

    Discussed at Lillehammer. General agreement that we should - deprecate vector<bool> and introduce this functionality under - a different name, e.g. bit_vector. This might make it possible to - remove the vector<bool> specialization in the standard that comes - after C++0x. There was also a suggestion that - in C++0x we could additional say that it's implementation defined - whether vector<bool> refers to the specialization or to the - primary template, but there wasn't general agreement that this was a - good idea.

    - -

    We need a paper for the new bit_vector class.

    - -

    [ -Batavia: -]

    - -
    -The LWG feels we need something closer to SGI's bitvector to ease migration -from vector<bool>. Although some of the funcitonality from -N2050 -could well be used in such a template. The concern is easing the API migration for those -users who want to continue using a bit-packed container. Alan and Beman to work. -

    -

    -vector<bool> is now a conforming container under the revised terms of C++0x, -which supports containers of proxies. -

    -

    -Recommend NAD. -

    -

    -Two issues remain: -

    -

    -i/ premature optimization in the specification. -There is still some sentiment that deprecation is the correct way to go, -although it is still not clear what it would mean to deprecate a single -specialization of a template. -

    -

    -Recommend: Create a new issue for the discussion, leave as Open. -

    -

    -ii/ Request for a new bitvector class to guarantee the optimization, perhaps -with a better tuned interface. -

    -This infamous issue was closed as NAD Future when concepts introduced -support for proxy iterators, so the only remaining requirement was to -provide a better type to support bitsets of dynamic length. I fear we -must re-open this issue until the post-concept form of iterators is -available, and hopefully will support the necessary proxy functionality -to allow us to close this issue as NAD. -

    - -

    Discussion:

    -

    Suppose that c and c1 are sequential containers and i is an -iterator that refers to an element of c. Then I can insert a copy of -c1's elements into c ahead of element i by executing

    - -
    - -
    c.insert(i, c1.begin(), c1.end());
    - -
    - -

    If c is a vector, it is fairly easy for me to find out where the -newly inserted elements are, even though i is now invalid:

    - -
    - -
    size_t i_loc = i - c.begin();
    -c.insert(i, c1.begin(), c1.end());
    - -
    - -

    and now the first inserted element is at c.begin()+i_loc and one -past the last is at c.begin()+i_loc+c1.size().
    -
    -But what if c is a list? I can still find the location of one past the -last inserted element, because i is still valid. To find the location -of the first inserted element, though, I must execute something like

    - -
    - -
    for (size_t n = c1.size(); n; --n)
    -   --i;
    - -
    - -

    because i is now no longer a random-access iterator.
    -
    -Alternatively, I might write something like

    - -
    - -
    bool first = i == c.begin();
    -list<T>::iterator j = i;
    -if (!first) --j;
    -c.insert(i, c1.begin(), c1.end());
    -if (first)
    -   j = c.begin();
    -else
    -   ++j;
    - -
    - -

    which, although wretched, requires less overhead.
    -
    -But I think the right solution is to change the definition of insert -so that instead of returning void, it returns an iterator that refers -to the first element inserted, if any, and otherwise is a copy of its -first argument. 

    +

    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. +

    -In addition to the original rationale for C++03, this change also gives a -consistent interface for all container insert operations i.e. they all -return an iterator to the (first) inserted item. +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.

    -Proposed wording provided. +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
    +basic_string
    +queue
    +stack
    +move_iterator
    +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. +

    431. Swapping containers with unequal allocators

    Discussion:

    -

    Clause X [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());
    -  
    -

    Discussion:

    - -

    -TC1 CWG DR #84 effectively made the template<class Y> operator auto_ptr<Y>() -member of auto_ptr (20.4.5.3/4) obsolete. -

    - -

    -The sole purpose of this obsolete conversion member is to enable copy -initialization base from r-value derived (or any convertible types like -cv-types) case: -

    -
    #include <memory>
    -using std::auto_ptr;
    -
    -struct B {};
    -struct D : B {};
    -
    -auto_ptr<D> source();
    -int sink(auto_ptr<B>);
    -int x1 = sink( source() ); // #1 EDG - no suitable copy constructor
    -
    - -

    -The excellent analysis of conversion operations that was given in the final -auto_ptr proposal -(http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/1997/N1128.pdf) -explicitly specifies this case analysis (case 4). DR #84 makes the analysis -wrong and actually comes to forbid the loophole that was exploited by the -auto_ptr designers. -

    - -

    -I didn't encounter any compliant compiler (e.g. EDG, GCC, BCC and VC) that -ever allowed this case. This is probably because it requires 3 user defined -conversions and in fact current compilers conform to DR #84. -

    - -

    -I was surprised to discover that the obsolete conversion member actually has -negative impact of the copy initialization base from l-value derived -case:

    -
    auto_ptr<D> dp;
    -int x2 = sink(dp); // #2 EDG - more than one user-defined conversion applies
    -
    - -

    -I'm sure that the original intention was allowing this initialization using -the template<class Y> auto_ptr(auto_ptr<Y>& a) constructor (20.4.5.1/4) but -since in this copy initialization it's merely user defined conversion (UDC) -and the obsolete conversion member is UDC with the same rank (for the early -overloading stage) there is an ambiguity between them. -

    - -

    -Removing the obsolete member will have impact on code that explicitly -invokes it: -

    -
    int y = sink(source().operator auto_ptr<B>());
    -
    - -

    -IMHO no one ever wrote such awkward code and the reasonable workaround for -#1 is: -

    -
    int y = sink( auto_ptr<B>(source()) );
    -
    - -

    -I was even more surprised to find out that after removing the obsolete -conversion member the initialization was still ill-formed: -int x3 = sink(dp); // #3 EDG - no suitable copy constructor -

    - -

    -This copy initialization semantically requires copy constructor which means -that both template conversion constructor and the auto_ptr_ref conversion -member (20.4.5.3/3) are required which is what was explicitly forbidden in -DR #84. This is a bit amusing case in which removing ambiguity results with -no candidates. -

    - -

    -I also found exception safety issue with auto_ptr related to auto_ptr_ref: -

    -
    int f(auto_ptr<B>, std::string);
    -auto_ptr<B> source2();
    -
    -// string constructor throws while auto_ptr_ref
    -// "holds" the pointer
    -int x4 = f(source2(), "xyz"); // #4
    -
    - -

    -The theoretic execution sequence that will cause a leak: -

    -
      -
    1. call auto_ptr<B>::operator auto_ptr_ref<B>()
    2. -
    3. call string::string(char const*) and throw
    4. -
    - -

    -According to 20.4.5.3/3 and 20.4.5/2 the auto_ptr_ref conversion member -returns auto_ptr_ref<Y> that holds *this and this is another defect since -the type of *this is auto_ptr<X> where X might be different from Y. Several -library vendors (e.g. SGI) implement auto_ptr_ref<Y> with Y* as member which -is much more reasonable. Other vendor implemented auto_ptr_ref as -defectively required and it results with awkward and catastrophic code: -int oops = sink(auto_ptr<B>(source())); // warning recursive on all control -paths -

    - -

    -Dave Abrahams noticed that there is no specification saying that -auto_ptr_ref copy constructor can't throw. -

    - -

    -My proposal comes to solve all the above issues and significantly simplify -auto_ptr implementation. One of the fundamental requirements from auto_ptr -is that it can be constructed in an intuitive manner (i.e. like ordinary -pointers) but with strict ownership semantics which yield that source -auto_ptr in initialization must be non-const. My idea is to add additional -constructor template with sole propose to generate ill-formed, diagnostic -required, instance for const auto_ptr arguments during instantiation of -declaration. This special constructor will not be instantiated for other -types which is achievable using 14.8.2/2 (SFINAE). Having this constructor -in hand makes the constructor template<class Y> auto_ptr(auto_ptr<Y> const&) -legitimate since the actual argument can't be const yet non const r-value -are acceptable. -

    - -

    -This implementation technique makes the "private auxiliary class" -auto_ptr_ref obsolete and I found out that modern C++ compilers (e.g. EDG, -GCC and VC) consume the new implementation as expected and allow all -intuitive initialization and assignment cases while rejecting illegal cases -that involve const auto_ptr arguments. -

    - -

    The proposed auto_ptr interface:

    - -
    namespace std {
    -    template<class X> class auto_ptr {
    -    public:
    -        typedef X element_type;
    -
    -        // 20.4.5.1 construct/copy/destroy:
    -        explicit auto_ptr(X* p=0) throw();
    -        auto_ptr(auto_ptr&) throw();
    -        template<class Y> auto_ptr(auto_ptr<Y> const&) throw();
    -        auto_ptr& operator=(auto_ptr&) throw();
    -        template<class Y> auto_ptr& operator=(auto_ptr<Y>) throw();
    -        ~auto_ptr() throw();
    -
    -        // 20.4.5.2 members:
    -        X& operator*() const throw();
    -        X* operator->() const throw();
    -        X* get() const throw();
    -        X* release() throw();
    -        void reset(X* p=0) throw();
    -
    -    private:
    -        template<class U>
    -        auto_ptr(U& rhs, typename
    -unspecified_error_on_const_auto_ptr<U>::type = 0);
    -    };
    -}
    -
    - -

    -One compliant technique to implement the unspecified_error_on_const_auto_ptr -helper class is using additional private auto_ptr member class template like -the following: -

    -
    template<typename T> struct unspecified_error_on_const_auto_ptr;
    -
    -template<typename T>
    -struct unspecified_error_on_const_auto_ptr<auto_ptr<T> const>
    -{ typedef typename auto_ptr<T>::const_auto_ptr_is_not_allowed type; };
    -
    - -

    -There are other techniques to implement this helper class that might work -better for different compliers (i.e. better diagnostics) and therefore I -suggest defining its semantic behavior without mandating any specific -implementation. IMO, and I didn't found any compiler that thinks otherwise, -14.7.1/5 doesn't theoretically defeat the suggested technique but I suggest -verifying this with core language experts. -

    - -

    Further changes in standard text:

    -

    Remove section 20.4.5.3

    - -

    Change 20.4.5/2 to read something like: -Initializing auto_ptr<X> from const auto_ptr<Y> will result with unspecified -ill-formed declaration that will require unspecified diagnostic.

    -

    -10 Requires: Y* can be implicitly converted to X*. The expression delete -get() is well formed. -

    - -

    LWG TC DR #127 is obsolete.

    - -

    -Notice that the copy constructor and copy assignment operator should remain -as before and accept non-const auto_ptr& since they have effect on the form -of the implicitly declared copy constructor and copy assignment operator of -class that contains auto_ptr as member per 12.8/5,10: -

    -
    struct X {
    -    // implicit X(X&)
    -    // implicit X& operator=(X&)
    -    auto_ptr<D> aptr_;
    -};
    -
    - -

    -In most cases this indicates about sloppy programming but preserves the -current auto_ptr behavior. -

    - -

    -Dave Abrahams encouraged me to suggest fallback implementation in case that -my suggestion that involves removing of auto_ptr_ref will not be accepted. -In this case removing the obsolete conversion member to auto_ptr<Y> and -20.4.5.3/4,5 is still required in order to eliminate ambiguity in legal -cases. The two constructors that I suggested will co exist with the current -members but will make auto_ptr_ref obsolete in initialization contexts. -auto_ptr_ref will be effective in assignment contexts as suggested in DR -#127 and I can't see any serious exception safety issues in those cases -(although it's possible to synthesize such). auto_ptr_ref<X> semantics will -have to be revised to say that it strictly holds pointer of type X and not -reference to an auto_ptr for the favor of cases in which auto_ptr_ref<Y> is -constructed from auto_ptr<X> in which X is different from Y (i.e. assignment -from r-value derived to base). -

    From comp.std.c++:

    - -

    -I note that given an input iterator a for type T, -then *a only has to be "convertable to T", not actually of type T. -

    - -

    Firstly, I can't seem to find an exact definition of "convertable to T". -While I assume it is the obvious definition (an implicit conversion), I -can't find an exact definition. Is there one?

    - -

    Slightly more worryingly, there doesn't seem to be any restriction on -the this type, other than it is "convertable to T". Consider two input -iterators a and b. I would personally assume that most people would -expect *a==*b would perform T(*a)==T(*b), however it doesn't seem that -the standard requires that, and that whatever type *a is (call it U) -could have == defined on it with totally different symantics and still -be a valid inputer iterator.

    - -

    Is this a correct reading? When using input iterators should I write -T(*a) all over the place to be sure that the object i'm using is the -class I expect?

    - -

    This is especially a nuisance for operations that are defined to be - "convertible to bool". (This is probably allowed so that - implementations could return say an int and avoid an unnessary - conversion. However all implementations I have seen simply return a - bool anyway. Typical implemtations of STL algorithms just write - things like while(a!=b && *a!=0). But strictly - speaking, there are lots of types that are convertible to T but - that also overload the appropriate operators so this doesn't behave - as expected.

    - -

    If we want to make code like this legal (which most people seem to - expect), then we'll need to tighten up what we mean by "convertible - to T".

    Discussion:

    -

    -The wording used for section 23.2.1 [lib.array] seems to be subtly -ambiguous about zero sized arrays (N==0). Specifically: -

    -

    -* "An instance of array<T, N> stores N elements of type T, so that -[...]" -

    -

    -Does this imply that a zero sized array object stores 0 elements, i.e. -that it cannot store any element of type T? The next point clarifies -the rationale behind this question, basically how to implement begin() -and end(): -

    -

    -* 23.2.1.5 [lib.array.zero], p2: "In the case that N == 0, begin() == -end() == unique value." -

    -

    -What does "unique" mean in this context? Let's consider the following -possible implementations, all relying on a partial specialization: -

    -
    a)
    -    template< typename T >
    -    class array< T, 0 > {
    -    
    -        ....
    -
    -        iterator begin()
    -        { return iterator( reinterpret_cast< T * >( this ) ); }
    -        ....
    -
    -    };
    -
    -

    -This has been used in boost, probably intending that the return value -had to be unique to the specific array object and that array couldn't -store any T. Note that, besides relying on a reinterpret_cast, has -(more than potential) alignment problems. -

    -
    b)
    -    template< typename T >
    -    class array< T, 0 > {
    -    
    -        T t;
    -
    -        iterator begin()
    -        { return iterator( &t ); }
    -        ....
    -
    -    };
    -
    -

    -This provides a value which is unique to the object and to the type of -the array, but requires storing a T. Also, it would allow the user to -mistakenly provide an initializer list with one element. -

    -

    -A slight variant could be returning *the* null pointer of type T -

    -
        return static_cast<T*>(0);
    -
    -

    -In this case the value would be unique to the type array<T, 0> but not -to the objects (all objects of type array<T, 0> with the same value -for T would yield the same pointer value). -

    -

    -Furthermore this is inconsistent with what the standard requires from -allocation functions (see library issue 9). -

    -

    -c) same as above but with t being a static data member; again, the -value would be unique to the type, not to the object. -

    -

    -d) to avoid storing a T *directly* while disallowing the possibility -to use a one-element initializer list a non-aggregate nested class -could be defined -

    -
        struct holder { holder() {} T t; } h;
    -
    -

    -and then begin be defined as -

    -
     iterator begin() { return &h.t; }
    -
    -

    -But then, it's arguable whether the array stores a T or not. -Indirectly it does. -

    -

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

    -

    -Now, on different issues: -

    -

    -* what's the effect of calling assign(T&) on a zero-sized array? There -seems to be only mention of front() and back(), in 23.2.1 [lib.array] -p4 (I would also suggest to move that bullet to section 23.2.1.5 -[lib.array.zero], for locality of reference) -

    -

    -* (minor) the opening paragraph of 23.2.1 [lib.array] wording is a bit -inconsistent with that of other sequences: that's not a problem in -itself, but compare it for instance with "A vector is a kind of -sequence that supports random access iterators"; though the intent is -obvious one might argue that the wording used for arrays doesn't tell -what an array is, and relies on the reader to infer that it is what -the <array> header defines. -

    -

    -* it would be desiderable to have a static const data member of type -std::size_t, with value N, for usage as integral constant expression -

    -

    -* section 23.1 [lib.container.requirements] seem not to consider -fixed-size containers at all, as it says: "[containers] control -allocation and deallocation of these objects [the contained objects] -through constructors, destructors, *insert and erase* operations" -

    -

    -* max_size() isn't specified: the result is obvious but, technically, -it relies on table 80: "size() of the largest possible container" -which, again, doesn't seem to consider fixed size containers -

      - -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). - -

I have implemented this change and measured no significant -degradation in performance in the common case (non-empty arrays of -equal size).

      -The table of allocator requirements in X [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. -

      659. istreambuf_iterator should have an 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! -

      -

      -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. -

      -

      -22.4.6.1.2 [locale.money.get.virtuals], para 3 says: -

      - -

      -If pos or neg is empty, the sign component is -optional, and if no sign is detected, the result is given the sign -that corresponds to the source of the empty string. -

      - -

      -The following objection has been raised: -

      - -

      -A negative_sign of "" means "there is no -way to write a negative sign" not "any null sequence is a negative -sign, so it's always there when you look for it". -

      - -

      [ -2009-05-17 Howard adds: -]

      - - -
      -

      -I disagree that a negative_sign of "" means "there is no -way to -write a negative sign". The meaning requires the sentences of -22.4.6.1.2 [locale.money.get.virtuals] p3 following that quoted above -to be -taken into account: -

      - -
      --3- ... If pos or neg is empty, the sign component is -optional, and if no sign is detected, the result is given the sign that -corresponds to the source of the empty string. Otherwise, the character -in the indicated position must match the first character of pos -or neg, and the result is given the corresponding sign. If the -first character of pos is equal to the first character of -neg, or if both strings are empty, the result is given a -positive sign. -
      - -

      -So a negative_sign of "" means "there is no way to write a -negative sign" only when positive_sign is also "". However -when negative_sign is "" and postive_sign.size() > -0, then one writes a negative value by not writing the -postive_sign in the position indicated by -money_base::sign. -For example: -

      - -
      pattern = {symbol, sign, value, none}
      -positive_sign = "+"
      -negative_sign = ""
      -$123   // a negative value, using optional sign
      -$+123  // a positive value
      -$-123  // a parse error
      -
      - -

      -And: -

      - -
      pattern = {symbol, sign, value, none}
      -positive_sign = ""
      -negative_sign = ""
      -$123   // a positive value, no sign possible
      -$+123  // a parse error
      -$-123  // a parse error
      -
      - - -

      -And (regarding 669): -

      - -
      pattern = {symbol, sign, value, none}
      -positive_sign = "-"
      -negative_sign = "-"
      -$123   // a parse error, sign is mandatory
      -$+123  // a parse error
      -$-123  // a positive value
      -

      -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. -

      - -

      -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 conversion error, the value is set to 0, else -

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.

    -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. -

    - -
    -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. It is impossible to -store things into istream iterators.

    -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: -

      - -

      -  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 20.3.2 [forward]: -

      - -
      template <class T> struct identity_of {
      -  typedef T type;
      -};
      -
      - -

      -and adapt the std::forward signature to use identity_of -instead of identity. -

    4. -
    -
    - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -

    -Change definition of identity in 20.3.2 [forward], paragraph 2, to: -

    - -
    template <class T>  struct identity {
    -    typedef T type;

    -    requires ReferentType<T>

    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.

    - -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? - -

    -   assert (it != eos);
    -   i = *++it;
    -   assert (3 == i);

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. - -

    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). -

    - -

    - - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -

    -Add a blanket statement in 21.4.1 [string.require]: -

    - -
    -

    -- if any member function or operator of basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator> -throws, that function or operator has no effect. -

    -

    -- 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:

    -

    -This is an issue that came up on the libstdc++ list, where a -discrepancy between "C" arrays and C++0x's std::array was pointed -out. -

    - -

    -In "C," this array usage is possible: -

    - -
    int ar[] = {1, 4, 6};
    -
    - -

    -But for C++, -

    - -
    std::array<int> a = { 1, 4, 6 }; // error
    -
    - -

    -Instead, the second parameter of the array template must be -explicit, like so: -

    - -
    std::array<int, 3> a = { 1, 4, 6 };
    -
    - -

    -Doug Gregor proposes the following solution, that assumes -generalized initializer lists. -

    - -
    template<typename T, typename... Args>
    -inline array<T, sizeof...(Args)> 
    -make_array(Args&&... args) 
    -{ return { std::forward<Args>(args)... };  }
    -
    - -

    -Then, the way to build an array from a list of unknown size is: -

    - -
    auto a = make_array<T>(1, 4, 6);
    -

    -

    -Bjarne: I'm not convinced this is useful enough to add, so I'd like us -to have time to reflect on it. -

    -

    -Alisdair: the constraints are wrong, they should be -

    -
    template<ValueType T, ValueType... Args>
    -requires Convertible<Args, T>...
    -array<T, sizeof...(Args)> make_array(Args&&... args);
    -
    -

    -Alidair: this would be useful if we had a constexpr version. -

    -

    -Bjarne: this is probably useful for arrays with a small number of -elements, but it's not clearly useful otherwise. -

    -

    -Consensus is to move to Open. -

    -
    - -

    [ -2009-06-07 Daniel adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -I suggest a fix and a simplification of the current proposal: Recent -prototyping by -Howard showed, that a fix is required because narrowing conversion -8.5.4 [dcl.init.list]/6 b.3 -would severely limit the possible distribution of argument types, e.g. -the expression -make_array<double>(1, 2.0) is ill-formed, because the narrowing -happens inside the -function body where no constant expressions exist anymore. Furthermore -given e.g. -

    -
    int f();
    -double g();
    -
    -

    -we probably want to support -

    -
    make_array<double>(f(), g());
    -
    - -

    -as well. To make this feasible, the currently suggested expansion -

    - -
    { std::forward<Args>(args)... }
    -
    - -

    -needs to be replaced by -

    - -
    { static_cast<T>(std::forward<Args>(args))... }
    -
    - -

    -which is safe, because we already ensure convertibility via the -element-wise Convertible<Args, T> requirement. Some other fixes are -necessary: The ValueType requirement for the function parameters -is invalid, because all lvalue arguments will deduce to an lvalue-reference, -thereby no longer satisfying this requirement. -

    - -

    -The suggested simplification is to provide a default-computed effective -type for the result array based on common_type and decay, in -unconstrained form: -

    - -
    template<typename... Args>
    -array<typename decay<typename common_type<Args...>::type>::type,
    -sizeof...(Args)>
    -make_array(Args&&... args);
    -
    - -

    -The approach used below is similar to that of make_pair and make_tuple -using a symbol C to represent the decayed common type [Note: Special -handling of reference_wrapper types is intentionally not provided, because -our target has so satisfy ValueType, thus under the revised proposal only -an all-reference_wrapper-arguments would be well-formed and an array of -reference_wrapper will be constructed]. I do currently not suggest to -add new concepts reflecting decay and common_type, but an implementor will -need something like this to succeed. Note that we use a similar fuzziness for -make_pair and make_tuple currently. This fuzziness is not related to -the currently -missing Constructible<Vi, Ti&&> requirement for those functions. The following -proposal fixes that miss for make_array. If the corresponding C type -deduction is -explicitly wanted for standardization, here the implementation -

    - -
    auto concept DC<typename... T> {
    -  typename type = typename decay<typename common_type<T...>::type>::type;
    -}
    -
    - -

    -where C is identical to DC<Args...>::type in the proposed resolution below. -

    -

    -I intentionally added no further type relation between type and the concept -template parameters, but instead added this requirement below to make -the specification as transparent as possible. As written this concept is -satisfied, if the corresponding associated type exists. -

    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. -

    +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. +

    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:

    -

    -This issue was split off from 892 at the request of the LWG. -

    - -

    [ -San Francisco: -]

    - - -
    -

    -This issue is more complicated than it looks. -

    -

    -paragraph 47: replace each (first, last) with (first, last] -

    -

    -add a statement after paragraph 48 that complexity is O(1) -

    -

    -remove the complexity statement from the first overload of splice_after -

    -

    -We may have the same problems with other modifiers, like erase_after. -Should it require that all iterators in the range (position, last] be -dereferenceable? -

    -
    - -

    -There are actually 3 issues here: -

    - -
      -
    1. -

      -What value should erase_after return? With list, code often -looks like: -

      -
      for (auto i = l.begin(); i != l.end();)
      -{
      -    // inspect *i and decide if you want to erase it
      -    // ...
      -    if (I want to erase *i)
      -        i = l.erase(i);
      -    else
      -        ++i;
      -}
      -
      -

      -I.e. the iterator returned from erase is useful for setting up the -logic for operating on the next element. For forward_list this might -look something like: -

      -
      auto i = fl.before_begin();
      -auto ip1 = i;
      -for (++ip1; ip1 != fl.end(); ++ip1)
      -{
      -    // inspect *(i+1) and decide if you want to erase it
      -    // ...
      -    if (I want to erase *(i+1))
      -        i = fl.erase_after(i);
      -    else
      -        ++i;
      -    ip1 = i;
      -}
      -
      -

      -In the above example code, it is convenient if erase_after returns -the element prior to the erased element (range) instead of the element -after the erase element (range). -

      -

      -Existing practice: -

      -
        -
      • SGI slist returns an iterator referencing the element after the erased range.
      • -
      • CodeWarrior slist returns an iterator referencing the element before the erased range.
      • -
      -

      -There is not a strong technical argument for either solution over the other. -

      -
    2. - -
    3. -

      -With all other containers, operations always work on the range -[first, last) and/or prior to the given position. -

      -

      -With forward_list, operations sometimes work on the range -(first, last] and/or after the given position. -

      -

      -This is simply due to the fact that in order to operate on -*first (with forward_list) one needs access to -*(first-1). And that's not practical with -forward_list. So the operating range needs to start with (first, -not [first (as the current working paper says). -

      -

      -Additionally, if one is interested in splicing the range (first, last), -then (with forward_list), one needs practical (constant time) access to -*(last-1) so that one can set the next field in this node to -the proper value. As this is not possible with forward_list, one must -specify the last element of interest instead of one past the last element of -interest. The syntax for doing this is to pass (first, last] instead -of (first, last). -

      -

      -With erase_after we have a choice of either erasing the range -(first, last] or (first, last). Choosing the latter -enables: -

      -
      x.erase_after(pos, x.end());
      -
      - -

      -With the former, the above statement is inconvenient or expensive due to the lack -of constant time access to x.end()-1. However we could introduce: -

      - -
      iterator erase_to_end(const_iterator position);
      -
      - -

      -to compensate. -

      - -

      -The advantage of the former ((first, last]) for erase_after -is a consistency with splice_after which uses (first, last] -as the specified range. But this either requires the addition of erase_to_end -or giving up such functionality. -

      - -
    4. - -
    5. -As stated in the discussion of 892, and reienforced by point 2 above, -a splice_after should work on the source range (first, last] -if the operation is to be Ο(1). When splicing an entire list x the -algorithm needs (x.before_begin(), x.end()-1]. Unfortunately x.end()-1 -is not available in constant time unless we specify that it must be. In order to -make x.end()-1 available in constant time, the implementation would have -to dedicate a pointer to it. I believe the design of -N2543 -intended a nominal overhead of foward_list of 1 pointer. Thus splicing -one entire forward_list into another can not be Ο(1). -

    -Alan suggested removing the "foward_last<T. Alloc>&& x" -parameter from the second form of splice_after, because it is redundant. -PJP wanted to keep it, because it allows him to check for bad ranges -(i.e. "Granny knots"). -

    -The deleted copy-assignment operators for the atomic types are not -marked as volatile in N2723, whereas the assignment operators from the -associated non-atomic types are. e.g. -

    -
    atomic_bool& operator=(atomic_bool const&) = delete;

    -This leads to ambiguity when assigning a non-atomic value to a -non-volatile instance of an atomic type: -

    -
    atomic_bool b;
    -b=false;
    -
    - -

    -Both assignment operators require a standard conversions: the -copy-assignment operator can use the implicit atomic_bool(bool) -conversion constructor to convert false to an instance of -atomic_bool, or b can undergo a qualification conversion in order to -use the assignment from a plain bool. -

    -N2770 (and thus now the WP) removed the -non-template move-assignment operator from tuple's class definition, -but the latter individual member description does still provide this -operator. Is this (a) an oversight and can it (b) be solved as part of an -editorial process? -

    -Right now, the compare_exchange_weak loop should rapidly converge on the -padding contents. But compare_exchange_strong will require a bit more -compiler work to ignore padding for comparison purposes. -

    -Note that this isn't a problem for structs with no padding, and we do -already have one portable way to ensure that there is no padding that -covers the key use cases: Have elements be the same type.

    Addresses UK 313

    - -

    -There was an interesting issue raised over on comp.programming.threads -today regarding the following example -

    - -
    // Thread 1:
    -x.store(1, memory_order_relaxed);           // SX
    -atomic_thread_fence(memory_order_seq_cst);  // F1
    -y.store(1, memory_order_relaxed);           // SY1
    -atomic_thread_fence(memory_order_seq_cst);  // F2
    -r1 = y.load(memory_order_relaxed);          // RY
    -
    -// Thread 2:
    -y.store(0, memory_order_relaxed);          // SY2
    -atomic_thread_fence(memory_order_seq_cst); // F3
    -r2 = x.load(memory_order_relaxed);         // RX
    -
    - -

    -is the outcome r1 == 0 and r2 == 0 possible? -

    -

    -I think the intent is that this is not possible, but I am not sure the -wording guarantees that. Here is my analysis: -

    -

    -Since all the fences are SC, there must be a total order between them. -F1 must be before F2 in that order since they are in -the same thread. Therefore F3 is either before F1, -between F1 and F2 or after F2. -

    -

    -If F3 is after F2, then we can apply 29.3 [atomics.order]p5 from -N2798: -

    - -
    -For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object -M, where A modifies M and B takes -its value, if there are memory_order_seq_cst fences X -and Y such that A is sequenced before X, -Y is sequenced before B, and X precedes -Y in S, then B observes either the effects of -A or a later modification of M in its modification -order. -
    - -

    -In this case, A is SX, B is RX, the -fence X is F2 and the fence Y is F3, -so RX must see 1. -

    -

    -If F3 is before F2, this doesn't apply, but -F3 can therefore be before or after F1. -

    -

    -If F3 is after F1, the same logic applies, but this -time the fence X is F1. Therefore again, RX -must see 1. -

    -

    -Finally we have the case that F3 is before F1 -in the SC ordering. There are now no guarantees about RX, and -RX can see r2==0. -

    -

    -We can apply 29.3 [atomics.order]p5 again. This time, -A is SY2, B is RY, X is -F3 and Y is F1. Thus RY must observe -the effects of SY2 or a later modification of y in its -modification order. -

    -

    -Since SY1 is sequenced before RY, RY must -observe the effects of SY1 or a later modification of -y in its modification order. -

    -

    -In order to ensure that RY sees (r1==1), we must see -that SY1 is later in the modification order of y than -SY2. -

    -

    -We're now skating on thin ice. Conceptually, SY2 happens-before -F3, F3 is SC-ordered before F1, F1 -happens-before SY1, so SY1 is later in the -modification order M of y, and RY must see -the result of SY1 (r1==1). However, I don't think the -words are clear on that. -

    - -

    [ -Post Summit Hans adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -In my (Hans') view, our definition of fences will always be weaker than -what particular hardware will guarantee. Memory_order_seq_cst fences -inherently don't guarantee sequential consistency anyway, for good -reasons (e.g. because they can't enforce a total order on stores). - Hence I don't think the issue demonstrates a gross failure to achieve -what we intended to achieve. The example in question is a bit esoteric. - Hence, in my view, living with the status quo certainly wouldn't be a -disaster either. -

    -

    -In any case, we should probably add text along the lines of the -following between p5 and p6 in 29.3 [atomics.order]: -

    -
    -[Note: Memory_order_seq_cst only ensures sequential consistency for a -data-race-free program that uses exclusively memory_order_seq_cst -operations. Any use of weaker ordering will invalidate this guarantee -unless extreme care is used. In particular, memory_order_seq_cst fences -only ensure a total order for the fences themselves. They cannot, in -general, be used to restore sequential consistency for atomic operations -with weaker ordering specifications.] -
    - -

    -Also see thread beginning at c++std-lib-23271. -

    - -
    - -

    [ -Herve's correction: -]

    - -
    -

    -Minor point, and sorry for the knee jerk reaction: I admit to having -no knowledge of Memory_order_seq_cst, but my former boss (John Lakos) -has ingrained an automatic introspection on the use of "only". I -think you meant: -

    - -
    -[Note: Memory_order_seq_cst ensures sequential consistency only -for . . . . In particular, memory_order_seq_cst fences ensure a -total order only for . . . -
    -

    -Unless, of course, Memory_order_seq_cst really do nothing but ensure -sequential consistency for a data-race-free program that uses -exclusively memory_order_seq_cst operations. -

    -
    - - - -

    Proposed resolution:

    -

    -Add a new paragraph after 29.3 [atomics.order]p5 that says -

    - -
    -For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object -M, where A and B modify M, if there -are memory_order_seq_cst fences X and Y such -that A is sequenced before X, Y is sequenced -before B, and X precedes Y in S, -then B occurs later than A in the modifiction order of -M. -

    -The Working Draft (N2798) allows access to the elements of -std::array by its data() member function: -

    - -
    - -
    23.2.1.4 array::data [array.data]
    -
     T *data();
    - const T *data() const;
    -
    -
    1. - Returns: elems. -
    - -

    -Unfortunately, the result of std::array::data() cannot be bound -to a reference to a built-in array of the type of array::elems. -And std::array provides no other way to get a reference to -array::elems. -This hampers the use of std::array, for example when trying to -pass its data to a C style API function: -

    - -
     // Some C style API function. 
    - void set_path( char (*)[MAX_PATH] );
    -
    - std::array<char,MAX_PATH> path;
    - set_path( path.data() );  // error
    - set_path( &(path.data()) );  // error
    -
    - -

    -Another example, trying to pass the array data to an instance of another -C++ class: -

    - -
     // Represents a 3-D point in space.
    - class three_d_point {
    - public:
    -   explicit three_d_point(const double (&)[3]); 
    - };
    -
    - const std::array<double,3> coordinates = { 0, 1, 2 };
    - three_d_point point1( coordinates.data() );  // error.
    - three_d_point point2( *(coordinates.data()) );  // error.
    -
    - -

    -A user might be tempted to use std::array::elems instead, but -doing so isn't recommended, because std::array::elems is "for -exposition only". Note that Boost.Array users might already use -boost::array::elems, as its documentation doesn't explicitly -state that boost::array::elems is for exposition only: -http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/doc/html/boost/array.html -

    -

    -I can think of three options to solve this issue: -

    -
    1. -Remove the words "exposition only" from the definition of -std::array::elems, as well as the note saying that "elems is -shown for exposition only." -
    2. -Change the signature of std::array::data(), so that it would -return a reference to the built-in array, instead of a pointer to its -first element. -
    3. -Add extra member functions, returning a reference to the built-in array. -
    -

    -Lawrence Crowl wrote me that it might be better to leave -std::array::elems "for exposition only", to allow alternate -representations to allocate the array data dynamically. This might be -of interest to the embedded community, having to deal with very limited -stack sizes. -

    -

    -The second option, changing the return type of -std::array::data(), would break backward compatible to current -Boost and TR1 implementations, as well as to the other contiguous -container (vector and string) in a very subtle way. -For example, the following call to std::swap currently swap two -locally declared pointers (data1, data2), for any container -type T that has a data() member function. When -std::array::data() is changed to return a reference, the -std::swap call may swap the container elements instead. -

    - -
     template <typename T>
    - void func(T& container1, T& container2)
    - {
    -   // Are data1 and data2 pointers or references?
    -   auto data1 = container1.data();
    -   auto data2 = container2.data();
    -
    -   // Will this swap two local pointers, or all container elements?
    -   std::swap(data1, data2);
    - }
    -
    - -

    -The following concept is currently satisfied by all contiguous -containers, but it no longer is for std::array, when -array::data() -is changed to return a reference (tested on ConceptGCC Alpha 7): -

    - -
     auto concept ContiguousContainerConcept<typename T>
    - {
    -   typename value_type = typename T::value_type;
    -   const value_type * T::data() const;
    - }
    -
    - -

    -Still it's worth considering having std::array::data() return a -reference, because it might be the most intuitive option, from a user's -point of view. Nicolai Josuttis (who wrote boost::array) -mailed me that he very much prefers this option. -

    -

    -Note that for this option, the definition of data() would also -need to be revised for zero-sized arrays, as its return type cannot be a -reference to a zero-sized built-in array. Regarding zero-sized array, -data() could throw an exception. Or there could be a partial -specialization of std::array where data() returns -T* or gets removed. -

    -

    -Personally I prefer the third option, adding a new member function to -std::array, overloaded for const and non-const access, -returning a reference to the built-in array, to avoid those compatible -issues. I'd propose naming the function std::array::c_array(), -which sounds intuitive to me. Note that boost::array already -has a c_array() member, returning a pointer, but Nicolai told -me that this one is only there for historical reasons. (Otherwise a name -like std::array::native_array() or -std::array::builtin_array() would also be fine with me.) -According to my proposed resolution, a zero-sized std::array does not need -to have c_array(), while it is still required to have -data() functions. -

    Discussion:

    -

    -30.4.1 [thread.mutex.requirements] describes the requirements for a type to be -a "Mutex type". A Mutex type can be used as the template argument for -the Lock type that's passed to condition_variable_any::wait (although -Lock seems like the wrong name here, since Lock is given a different -formal meaning in 30.4.3 [thread.lock]) and, although the WD doesn't quite say -so, as the template argument for lock_guard and unique_lock. -

    - -

    -The requirements for a Mutex type include: -

    - -
      -
    • -m.lock() shall be well-formed and have [described] semantics, including a return type of void. -
    • -
    • -m.try_lock() shall be well-formed and have [described] semantics, including a return type of bool. -
    • -
    • -m.unlock() shall be well-formed and have [described] semantics, including a return type of void. -
    • -
    - -

    -Also, a Mutex type "shall not be copyable nor movable". -

    - -

    -The latter requirement seems completely irrelevant, and the three -requirements on return types are tighter than they need to be. For -example, there's no reason that lock_guard can't be instantiated with a -type that's copyable. The rule is, in fact, that lock_guard, etc. won't -try to copy objects of that type. That's a constraint on locks, not on -mutexes. Similarly, the requirements for void return types are -unnecessary; the rule is, in fact, that lock_guard, etc. won't use any -returned value. And with the return type of bool, the requirement should -be that the return type is convertible to bool. -

    - -

    [ -Summit: -]

    -

    -Move to open. Related to conceptualization and should probably be tackled as part of that. -

    -
      -
    • -The intention is not only to place a constraint on what types such as -lock_guard may do with mutex types, but on what any code, including user -code, may do with mutex types. Thus the constraints as they are apply to -the mutex types themselves, not the current users of mutex types in the -standard. -
    • -
    • -This is a low priority issue; the wording as it is may be overly -restrictive but this may not be a real issue. -
    • -
    -
    - -

    [ -Post Summit Anthony adds: -]

    - - -
    -

    -Section 30.4.1 [thread.mutex.requirements] conflates the -requirements on a generic Mutex type (including user-supplied mutexes) -with the requirements placed on the standard-supplied mutex types in an -attempt to group everything together and save space. -

    -

    -When applying concepts to chapter 30, I suggest that the concepts -Lockable and TimedLockable embody the requirements for -*use* of a mutex type as required by -unique_lock/lock_guard/condition_variable_any. These should be -relaxed as Pete describes in the issue. The existing words in 30.4.1 [thread.mutex.requirements] are requirements on all of -std::mutex, std::timed_mutex, -std::recursive_mutex and std::recursive_timed_mutex, -and should be rephrased as such. -

    -20.9.1 [time.clock.req] requires that a clock type have a member -typedef named time_point that names an instantiation of the -template time_point, and a member named duration that -names an instantiation of the template duration. This mixing of -levels is confusing. The typedef names should be different from the -template names. -

    -The reason that the typedef names were given the same name as the class templates -was so that clients would not have to stop and think about whether they were -using the clock's native time_point / duration or the class -template directly. In this case, one person's confusion is another person's -encapsulation. The detail that sometimes one is referring to the clock's -native types, and sometimes one is referring to an independent type is -purposefully "hidden" because it is supposed to be an unimportant -detail. It can be confusing to have to remember when to type duration -and when to type duration_type, and there is no need to require the -client to remember something like that. -

    - -

    -For example, here is code that I once wrote in testing out the usability of -this facility: -

    - -
    template <class Clock, class Duration>
    -void do_until(const std::chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& t)
    -{
    -    typename Clock::time_point now = Clock::now();
    -    if (t > now)
    -    {
    -        typedef typename std::common_type
    -        <
    -            Duration,
    -            typename std::chrono::system_clock::duration
    -        >::type CD;
    -        typedef std::chrono::duration<double, std::nano> ID;
    -
    -        CD d = t - now;
    -        ID us = duration_cast<ID>(d);
    -        if (us < d)
    -            ++us;
    -        ...
    -    }
    -}
    -
    - -

    -I see no rationale to require the client to append _type to some -of those declarations. It seems overly burdensome on the author of do_until: -

    - -
    template <class Clock, class Duration>
    -void do_until(const std::chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& t)
    -{
    -    typename Clock::time_point_type now = Clock::now();
    -    if (t > now)
    -    {
    -        typedef typename std::common_type
    -        <
    -            Duration,
    -            typename std::chrono::system_clock::duration_type
    -        >::type CD;
    -        typedef std::chrono::duration<double, std::nano> ID;
    -
    -        CD d = t - now;
    -        ID us = duration_cast<ID>(d);
    -        if (us < d)
    -            ++us;
    -        ...
    -    }
    -}
    -
    - -

    -Additionally I'm fairly certain that this suggestion hasn't been implemented. -If it had, it would have been discovered that it is incomplete. time_point -also has a nested type (purposefully) named duration. -

    -
    -That is, the current proposed wording would put the WP into an inconsistent state. -
    -

    -In contrast, -the current WP has been implemented and I've received very favorable feedback -from people using this interface in real-world code. -

    -Not meaning to be argumentative, but we have a decade of positive experience -with the precedent of using the same name for the nested type as an external -class representing an identical concept. -

    -    typedef reverse_iterator<iterator> reverse_iterator;
    -    ...
    -};
    -
    - -

    -I am aware of zero complaints regarding the use of iterator -and reverse_iterator as nested types of the containers despite these -names also having related meaning at namespace std scope. -

    -Would we really be doing programmers a favor by renaming these nested types? -

      -The new concepts for the insert iterators mandate an extra copy when -inserting an lvalue: -

      requires CopyConstructible<Cont::value_type>

      -The reason is to convert value into an rvalue because the current -BackInsertionContainer concept only handles push_back-ing -rvalues: -

      - -
      concept BackInsertionContainer<typename C> : Container<C> { 
      -  void push_back(C&, value_type&&);

      -
      - -

      -Without the conversion of value to an rvalue, the assignment operator -fails to concept check. -

      - -

      -A solution is to modify the BackInsertionContainer concept so that -the client can pass in the parameter type for push_back similar to -what is already done for the OutputIterator concept: -

      -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.

In general one -can not know to what type of unqiue_ptr you are converting to. -

        -

        -One answer is for the user of the conversion to specify the deleter type and perhaps -throw an exception if the specification turns out to be incorrect. -

        -

        -Another answer is for the conversion to only be valid when the underlying deleter -is default_delete. We would probalby need to specify that this is indeed the -underlying deleter of a shared_ptr when a custom deleter is not given in -the constructor. -

      -future, promise and packaged_task provide a -framework for creating future values, but a simple function to tie all -three components together is missing. Note that we only need a *simple* -facility for C++0x. Advanced thread pools are to be left for TR2. -

      - -

      -Simple Proposal: -

      - -

      -Provide a simple function along the lines of: -

      -
      template< typename F, typename ... Args >
      -  requires Callable< F, Args... >
      -    future< Callable::result_type > async( F&& f, Args && ... ); 
      -
      - -

      -Semantics are similar to creating a thread object with a packaged_task -invoking f with forward<Args>(args...) -but details are left unspecified to allow different scheduling and thread -spawning implementations. -

      -

      -It is unspecified whether a task submitted to async is run on its own thread -or a thread previously used for another async task. If a call to async -succeeds, it shall be safe to wait for it from any thread. -

      -

      -The state of thread_local variables shall be preserved during async calls. -

      -

      -No two incomplete async tasks shall see the same value of -this_thread::get_id(). -

      -

      -[Note: this effectively forces new tasks to be run on a new thread, or a -fixed-size pool with no queue. If the -library is unable to spawn a new thread or there are no free worker threads -then the async call should fail. --end note] -

      -std::unique_future is MoveConstructible, so you can transfer the -association with an asynchronous result from one instance to another. -However, there is no way to determine whether or not an instance has -been moved from, and therefore whether or not it is safe to wait for it. -

        -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:

        - -

        -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. -

        -

        -

        -Scoped allocators represent a poor trade-off for standardization, since -(1) scoped-allocator--aware containers can be implemented outside the -C++ standard library but used with its algorithms, (2) scoped -allocators only benefit a tiny proportion of the C++ community -(since few C++ programmers even use today's allocators), and (3) all C++ -users, especially the vast majority of the C++ community that won't ever -use scoped allocators are forced to cope with the interface complexity -introduced by scoped allocators. -

        -

        -In essence, the larger community will suffer to support a very small -subset of the community who can already implement their own -data structures outside of the standard library. Therefore, scoped -allocators should be removed from the working paper. -

        -

        -Some evidence of the complexity introduced by scoped allocators: -

        -
        -

        -20.3.3 [pairs], 20.5 [tuple]: Large increase in the -number of pair and tuple constructors. -

        -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 14.10.2.1 [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
        -
        - -

        -If the issue is accepted and scoped allocators are removed, I suggest to -add a new pair of concepts to 20.2.7 [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>
        -{ }
        -
        - -

        -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: -

        - -
        auto concept Constructible<typename T, typename... Args>
        - : HasConstructor<T, Args...>, ExplicitConstructible<T, Args...>
        -{ }
        -
        - -

        -Moreover, all emplace-related concepts in 23.2.6 [container.concepts] -should also use ExplicitConstructible instead of Constructible in the -definitions of their axioms. In fact the concepts in 23.2.6 [container.concepts] should be -corrected even if the issue is not accepted. -

        -

        -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>>;
        -
        -vector<shared_ptr<int>, scoped_allocator<shared_ptr<int>>> v;
        -v.emplace_back(new int); // ops! doesn't compile
        -
        - -

        -doesn't compile, as the member function construct() of the scoped -allocator requires non-explicit constructors through concept -ConstructibleWithAllocator. Fixing that is not difficult but probably -more work than it's worth and is therefore, IMHO, one more reason in -support of the complete removal of scoped allocators. -

        -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.

        1102. std::vector's reallocation policy still unclear

        Discussion:

        -

        -I have the impression that even the wording of current draft -N2857 -does insufficiently express the intent of vector's -reallocation strategy. This has produced not too old library -implementations which release memory in the clear() function -and even modern articles about C++ programming cultivate -the belief that clear is allowed to do exactly this. A typical -example is something like this: -

        - -
        const int buf_size = ...;
        -std::vector<T> buf(buf_size);
        -for (int i = 0; i < some_condition; ++i) {
        -  buf.resize(buf_size);
        -  write_or_read_data(buf.data());
        -  buf.clear(); // Ensure that the next round get's 'zeroed' elements
        -}
        -
        -

        -where still the myth is ubiquitous that buf might be -allowed to reallocate it's memory *inside* the for loop. -

        -

        -IMO the problem is due to the fact, that -

        - -
          -
        1. -the actual memory-reallocation stability of std::vector -is explained in 23.3.6.2 [vector.capacity]/3 and /6 which -are describing just the effects of the reserve -function, but in many examples (like above) there -is no explicit call to reserve involved. Further-more -23.3.6.2 [vector.capacity]/6 does only mention insertions -and never mentions the consequences of erasing -elements. -
        2. -
        3. -

          -the effects clause of std::vector's erase overloads in -23.3.6.4 [vector.modifiers]/4 is silent about capacity changes. This -easily causes a misunderstanding, because the counter -parting insert functions described in 23.3.6.4 [vector.modifiers]/2 -explicitly say, that -

          -
          -Causes reallocation if the new size is greater than the -old capacity. If no reallocation happens, all the iterators -and references before the insertion point remain valid. -
          -

          -It requires a complex argumentation chain about four -different places in the standard to provide the - possibly -weak - proof that calling clear() also does never change -the capacity of the std::vector container. Since std::vector -is the de-facto replacement of C99's dynamic arrays this -type is near to a built-in type and it's specification should -be clear enough that usual programmers can trust their -own reading. -

        -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. -

        -

        -An alternative would be to pass all constructor arguments by value, where it -is known that *all* elements are literal types.

        -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.

        -I agree with the usefulness of the issue suggestion, but we need -to ensure that istream_iterator can satisfy be literal if needed. -Currently this is not clear, because 24.6.1 [istream.iterator]/3 declares -a copy constructor and a destructor and explains their semantic in -24.6.1.1 [istream.iterator.cons]/3+4. -

        -

        -The prototype semantic specification is ok (although it seems -somewhat redundant to me, because the semantic doesn't say -anything interesting in both cases), but for support of trivial class -types we also need a trivial copy constructor and destructor as of -9 [class]/6. The current non-informative specification of these -two special members suggests to remove their explicit declaration -in the class and add explicit wording that says that if T is -trivial a default constructed iterator is also literal, alternatively it -would be possible to mark both as defaulted and add explicit -(memberwise) wording that guarantees that they are trivial. -

        -

        -Btw.: I'm quite sure that the istreambuf_iterator additions to -ensure triviality are not sufficient as suggested, because the -library does not yet give general guarantees that a defaulted -special member declaration makes this member also trivial. -Note that e.g. the atomic types do give a general statement! -

        -We will focus on the method A() since the other methods, also main(), occur -only once respectively. -

        - -
          -
        • - In the List A above (of the nested exception handling), it is hard to - find out an active reason to use the nested exception handling at this - scene. Rather, we can take a simpler description by throwing the entire - exception_list directly to the top level. -
        • -
        • - The code in the same example gives us a kind of redundant impression, - which might have come from the fact that the try-throw-catch framework does - not assume a tree structured exception handling. -
        • -
        - -

        -According to the above observation, we cannot help concluding that it is not -so easy to use the nested_exception handling as a tree structured exception -handling mechanism in a practical sense. -

        -The "lockfree" facilities do not tell the programmer enough. -

        - -

        -There are 2 problems here. -First, at least on x86, -it's less important to me whether some integral types are lock free -than what is the largest type I can pass to atomic and have it be lock-free. -For example, if long longs are not lock-free, -ATOMIC_INTEGRAL_LOCK_FREE is probably 1, -but I'd still be interested in knowing whether longs are always lock-free. -Or if long longs at any address are lock-free, -I'd expect ATOMIC_INTEGRAL_LOCK_FREE to be 2, -but I may actually care whether I have access to -the cmpxchg16b instruction. -None of the support here helps with that question. -(There are really 2 related questions here: -what alignment requirements are there for lock-free access; -and what processor is the program actually running on, -as opposed to what it was compiled for?) -

        - -

        -Second, having atomic_is_lock_free only apply to individual objects -is pretty useless -(except, as Lawrence Crowl points out, -for throwing an exception when an object is unexpectedly not lock-free). -I'm likely to want to use its result to decide what algorithm to use, -and that algorithm is probably going to allocate new memory -containing atomic objects and then try to act on them. -If I can't predict the lock-freedom of the new object -by checking the lock-freedom of an existing object, -I may discover after starting the algorithm that I can't continue. -

        [ -2009-06-16 Jeffrey Yasskin adds: +2009 Santa Cruz: ]

        -To solve the first problem, I think 2 macros would help: -MAX_POSSIBLE_LOCK_FREE_SIZE and MAX_GUARANTEED_LOCK_FREE_SIZE, -which expand to the maximum value of sizeof(T) for which atomic may -(or will, respectively) use lock-free operations. -Lawrence points out that this -"relies heavily on implementations -using word-size compare-swap on sub-word-size types, -which in turn requires address modulation." -He expects that to be the end state anyway, so it doesn't bother him much. +The "thread safe" language has already been change in the WP. It was +changed to "happen before", but the current WP text is still a little +incomplete: "happen before" is binary, but the current WP text only +mentions one thing.

        -

        -To solve the second, -I think one could specify that equally aligned objects of the same type -will return the same value from atomic_is_lock_free(). -I don't know how to specify "equal alignment". -Lawrence suggests an additional function, atomic_is_always_lock_free(). +Move to Ready.

        Description

        - -

        It is possible - to transfer ownership of the asynchronous result from one - unique_future instance to another via the move-constructor. - However, it is not possible to transfer it back, and nor is - it possible to create a default-constructed unique_future - instance to use as a later move target. This unduly limits - the use of unique_future in code. Also, the lack of a - move-assignment operator restricts the use of unique_future - in containers such as std::vector - vector::insert requires - move-assignable for example.

        -

        Suggestion

        -

        Add a default constructor with the - semantics that it creates a unique_future with no - associated asynchronous result. Add a move-assignment - operator which transfers ownership.

        shared_future is currently - CopyConstructible, but not CopyAssignable. This is - inconsistent with shared_ptr, and will surprise users. - Users will then write work-arounds to provide this - behaviour. We should provide it simply and efficiently as - part of shared_future. Note that since the shared_future - member functions for accessing the state are all declared - const, the original usage of an immutable shared_future - value that can be freely copied by multiple threads can be - retained by declaring such an instance as "const - shared_future".

        -

        Suggestion

        -

        Remove "=delete" - from the copy-assignment operator of shared_future. Add a - move-constructor shared_future(shared_future&& - rhs), and a move-assignment operator shared_future& - operator=(shared_future&& rhs). The postcondition - for the copy-assignment operator is that *this has the same - associated state as rhs. The postcondition for the - move-constructor and move assignment is that *this has the - same associated as rhs had before the - constructor/assignment call and that rhs has no associated - state.

        Description

        -

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

        -

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

        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. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +Add two new rows, and change rehash's postcondition in the unordered +associative container requirements table in 23.2.5 [unord.req]: +

        a.rehash(n)void +Post: a.bucket_count() >= n, and a.size() <= a.bucket_count() +* a.max_load_factor(). [Footnote: It is intentional that the +postcondition does not mention the minimum load factor. +This member function is primarily intended for cases where the user knows +that the container's size will increase soon, in which case the container's +load factor will temporarily fall below a.min_load_factor().] + +a.bucket_cout > a.size() / a.max_load_factor() and a.bucket_count() +>= n. + + +Average case linear in a.size(), worst case quadratic. +
        + + +

        +Add a footnote to 23.2.5 [unord.req] p12: +

        + +
        +

        +The insert members shall not affect the validity of references to +container elements, but may invalidate all iterators to the container. +The erase members shall invalidate only iterators and references to the +erased elements. +

        + +
        +[A consequence of these requirements is that while insert may change the +number of buckets, erase may not. The number of buckets may be reduced +on calls to insert or rehash.] +
        +
        + +

        +Change paragraph 13: +

        + +
        +The insert members shall not affect the validity of iterators if +(N+n) < z * B zmin * B <= (N+n) <= zmax * B, +where N is the number of elements in +the container prior to the insert operation, n is the number of +elements inserted, B is the container's bucket count, +zmin is the container's minimum load factor, +and zmax is the container's maximum load factor. +
        + +

        +Add to the unordered_map class synopsis in section 23.5.1 [unord.map], +the unordered_multimap class synopsis +in 23.5.2 [unord.multimap], the unordered_set class synopsis in +23.5.3 [unord.set], and the unordered_multiset class synopsis +in 23.5.4 [unord.multiset]: +

        +float min_load_factor() const;
        +void min_load_factor(float z);

        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. +

        + +

        +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. +

        + +

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

        + + +
        +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. +

        +

        +I'm going to have to speak up as the dissenting voice. +

        + +

        +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. +

        + +

        +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. +

        + +

        +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. +

        +According to the general rules of 17.6.3.8 [res.on.functions]/2 b 5 the effects +are undefined, if an incomplete type is used to instantiate a library template. But neither in +20.8.14.1 [unique.ptr.dltr] nor +in any other place of the standard such explicit allowance is given. +Since this template is intended to be instantiated with incomplete +types, this must +be fixed. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +Add two new paragraphs directly to 20.8.14.1 [unique.ptr.dltr] (before +20.8.14.1.1 [unique.ptr.dltr.dflt]) with the following +content: +

        + +
        +

        +The class template default_delete serves as the default deleter (destruction policy) for +the class template unique_ptr. +

        + +

        +The template parameter T of default_delete may be an incomplete type. +

        Discussion:

        +

        +23.3.5.1.1 [queue.defn] has the following queue constructor: +

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

        +This will be implemented like so: +

        + +
        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? +

        + +
        queue<int> q(5);
        +
        + +

        +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. +

        + +

        +I've picked on queue. priority_queue and stack have +the same issue. Is it useful to create a priority_queue of 5 +identical elements? +

        + +

        [ +Daniel, Howard and Pablo collaborated on the proposed wording. +]

        Proposed resolution:

        + +

        [ +This resolution includes a semi-editorial clean up, giving definitions to members +which in some cases weren't defined since C++98. +This resolution also offers editorially different wording for 976, +and it also provides wording for 1196. +]

        + + +

        +Change container.adaptors, p1: +

        + +
        +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] +

        Discussion:

        +

        +Table 97 "Unordered associative container requirements" in +23.2.5 [unord.req] says: +

        + +
        + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
        Table 97 — Unordered associative container requirements +(in addition to container)

        +
        + +

        +What should b.bucket(k) return if b.bucket_count() == 0? +

        + +

        +I believe allowing b.bucket_count() == 0 is important. It is a +very reasonable post-condition of the default constructor, or of a moved-from +container. +

        + +

        +I can think of several reasonable results from b.bucket(k) when +b.bucket_count() == 0: +

        + +
          +
        1. +Return 0. +
        2. +
        3. +Return numeric_limits<size_type>::max(). +
        4. +
        5. +Throw a domain_error. +
        6. +
        7. +Precondition: b.bucket_count() != 0. +
        8. +
        + +

        [ +2009-08-26 Daniel adds: +]

        + + +
        +

        +A forth choice would be to add the pre-condition "b.bucket_count() != 0" +and thus imply undefined behavior if this is violated. +

        + +

        [ +Howard: I like this option too, added to the list. +]

        + + +

        +Further on here my own favorite solution (rationale see below): +

        + +

        Suggested resolution:

        + +

        +[Rationale: I suggest to follow choice (1). The main reason is +that all associative container functions which take a key argument, +are basically free of pre-conditions and non-disrupting, therefore +excluding choices (3) and (4). Option (2) seems a bit unexpected +to me. It would be more natural, if several similar functions +would exist which would also justify the existence of a symbolic +constant like npos for this situation. The value 0 is both simple +and consistent, it has exactly the same role as a past-the-end +iterator value. A typical use-case is: +

        + +
        size_type pos = m.bucket(key);
        +if (pos != m.bucket_count()) {
        + ...
        +} else {
        + ...
        +}
        +
        + +

        — end Rationale]

        1198. Container adaptor swap: member or non-member?

        +

        Discussion:

        +

        +Under 23.3.5 [container.adaptors] of +N2914 +the member function of swap of queue and stack call: +

        + +
        swap(c, q.c);
        +
        + +

        +But under 23.3.5 [container.adaptors] of +N2723 +these members are specified to call: +

        + +
        c.swap(q.c);
        +
        + +

        +Neither draft specifies the semantics of member swap for +priority_queue though it is declared. +

        + +

        +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. +

        + +

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

        + + +
        +The outcome of this issue should be considered with the outcome of 774 both in style and in content (e.g. 774 bullet 9 +suggests to define the semantic of void +priority_queue::swap(priority_queue&) in terms of the member +swap of the container). +

        Discussion:

        +

        +queue has a constructor: +

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

        +but it is missing a corresponding constructor: +

        + +
        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. +

        + + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        1200. "surprising" char_traits<T>::int_type requirements

        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. +

        + +

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

        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 +

        + +
        template<typename... Types>
        +  pair<typename decay<Types>::type...> make_simple_pair(Types&&... t);
        +
        +
        +

        +Type requirements: sizeof...(Types) == 2. +Remarks: The program shall be ill-formed, if +sizeof...(Types) != 2. +

        +

        +... +

        +
        +
        + +

        +or alternatively (but with a slightly different semantic): +

        + +
        +
        +Remarks: If sizeof...(Types) != 2, this function shall not +participate in overload resolution. +
        +
        + +

        +to follow a currently introduced style and because the library does +not have yet a specific "Type requirements" element. If such thing +would be considered as useful this should be done as a separate +issue. Given the increasing complexity of either of these wordings +it might be preferable to use the normal two-argument-declaration +style again in either of the following ways: +

        + +
          +
        1. +
          template<class T1, class T2>
          +pair<typename decay<T1>::type, typename decay<T2>::type>
          +make_simple_pair(T1&& t1, T2&& t2);

          +pair<V1, V2> make_simple_pair(T1&& t1, T2&& t2);
          +
          +
          +Let V1 be typename decay<T1>::type and V2 be +typename decay<T2>::type. +
          +

        +Returns: pair<typename decay<Types>::type...>(std::forward<Types>(t)...). +

        +
        +

        1202. integral_constant needs a spring clean

        +

        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: +

        + +

        +  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 20.6.3 [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));
        +
        + +

        +or of +

        + +
        static_assert(std::is_same<decltype(std::integral_constant<int, 0>::value), const int>::value, "Bad library");
        +

        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: +

        + +
        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. +

        + +

        +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. +
        + +

        +The standard is currently lacking a global statement to this effect. I propose +the following addition to 17.6.3.9 [res.on.arguments]: +

        + +
        +

        +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 +(14.9.2.1 [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] +
        • +
        + +
        + +

        +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. +
        + +

        +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:

        +

        +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. +

        + +

        +25.2.1 [alg.all_of] +

        + +
        +Returns: true if pred(*i) is true for every +iterator i in the range [first,last), ... +
        + +

        +What does this mean if the range is empty? +

        + +

        +I believe that we intend this to be true and suggest a +non-normative note to clarify: +

        + +

        +Add to p1 25.2.1 [alg.all_of]: +

        + +
        +[Note: Returns true if [first,last) is empty. +— end note] +
        + +

        +25.2.3 [alg.none_of] +

        + +
        +Returns: true if pred(*i) is false for every +iterator i in the range [first,last), ... +
        + +

        +What does this mean if the range empty? +

        + +

        +I believe that we intend this to be true and suggest a +non-normative note to clarify: +

        + +

        +Add to p1 25.2.3 [alg.none_of]: +

        + +
        +[Note: Returns true if [first,last) is empty. +— end note] +
        + +

        +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. +

        + +

        +Add to p1 25.2.2 [alg.any_of]: +

        + +
        +[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? +

        + +

        +My proposed wording is a note to clarify the current semantic: +

        + +

        +Add to p2 25.2.6 [alg.find.end]: +

        + +
        +[Note: Returns last1 if [first2,last2) is +empty. — end note] +
        + +

        +I would prefer a normative wording treating empty ranges specially, but +do not believe we can change semantics at this point in the process, +unless existing implementations actually yield this result: +

        + +

        +Alternative wording: (NOT a note) +

        +

        +Add to p2 25.2.6 [alg.find.end]: +

        +
        +Returns first1 if [first2,last2) is empty. +
        + +

        +25.2.7 [alg.find.first.of] +

        + +

        +The phrasing seems precise when [first2, last2) is empty, but a small +note to confirm the reader's understanding might still help. +

        + +

        +Add to p2 25.2.7 [alg.find.first.of] +

        +
        +[Note: Returns last1 if [first2,last2) is +empty. — end note] +
        + +

        +25.2.12 [alg.search] +

        + +

        +What is the expected result 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? +

        + +
        +[Note: Returns last1 if [first2,last2) is +empty. — end note] +
        + +

        +Again, I would prefer a normative wording treating empty ranges +specially, but do not believe we can change semantics at this point in +the process, unless existing implementations actually yield this result: +

        + +

        +Alternative wording: (NOT a note) +

        + +

        +25.3.13 [alg.partitions] +

        + +

        +Is an empty range partitioned or not? +

        + +

        +Proposed wording: +

        + +

        +Add to p1 25.3.13 [alg.partitions]: +

        +25.4.5.1 [includes] +

        + +
        +Returns: true if every element in the range +[first2,last2) is contained in the range +[first1,last1). ... +
        + +

        +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: +

        + +

        +Add to p1 25.4.5.1 [includes]: +

        +[Note: Returns true if [first2,last2) is empty. +— end note] +
        + +

        +25.4.6.2 [pop.heap] +

        + +

        +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. +

        + +

        +Proposed wording: +

        +25.3.2 [alg.move], p6 says: +

        +  BidirectionalIterator2
        +    move_backward(BidirectionalIterator1 first,

        +

        +Requires: result shall not be in the range +[first,last). +

        +
        +
        + +

        +This is essentially an "off-by-one" error. +

        + +

        +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. +

        + +

        +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. +

        + +

        +The same argument applies to copy_backward though copy assigning elements +to themselves (result == last) should be harmless (though is disallowed +by copy). +

        Discussion:

        +

        +It looks to me like some operations of std::list +(sort, reverse, remove, unique & +merge) do not specify the validity of iterators, pointers & +references to elements of the list after those operations. Is it implied +by some other text in the standard? +

        + +

        +I believe sort & reverse do not invalidating +anything, remove & unique only invalidates what +refers to erased elements, merge does not invalidate anything +(with the same precision as splice for elements who changed of +container). Are those assumptions correct ? +

        +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. +

        +p6 Iterator requirements 24.2 [iterator.requirements] +

        + +
        +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. If j is reachable from i, they refer to the same +container. +
        + +

        +A good example would be stream iterators, which do not refer to a +container. Typically, the end iterator from a range of stream iterators +will compare equal for many such ranges. I suggest striking the second +sentence. +

        + +

        +An alternative wording might be: +

        + +
        +If j is reachable from i, and both i and +j are dereferencable iterators, then they refer to the same +range. +

        1211. move iterators should be restricted as input iterators

        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 24.2.3 [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. +

        + +

        [ +2009-10 post-Santa Cruz: +]

        + + +
        +Move to Open. Howard to put his rationale mentioned above into the issue +as a note. +
        + +

        [ +2009-10-26 Howard adds: +]

        + + +
        +

        +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. +

        + +
        + + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +Class template move_iterator 24.5.3.1 [move.iterator] +

        + +
        namespace std {
        +template <class Iterator>
        +class move_iterator {
        +public:
        + ...
        + typedef typename iterator_traits<Iterator>::iterator_category input_iterator_tag iterator_category;

        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. +
        + +

        +and proceeds: +

        + +
        +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. +

        + +

        +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: +

        + +
        +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. +
        + +

        +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);
        +
        + +
        +11 Returns: a pointer to the allocated memory. [Note: if n == 0, the return +value is unspecified. —end note] +
        + +

        +[..] +

        + +
        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. +
        +
        + +

        +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? +

        + + +

        Discussion:

        +

        +Scott Meyers' mentions on a recent posting on c.s.c++ +some arguments that point to an incomplete resolution +of 103 and to an inconsistency of requirements on keys in ordered and +unordered associative +containers: +

        + +
        +

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

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

        +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. +

        + +

        +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:

        +

        +In Bellevue (I think), we passed +N2525, +which, among other things, specifies that the behavior of +list::splice is undefined if the allocators of the two lists +being spliced do not compare equal. The same rationale should apply to +list::merge. The intent of list::merge (AFAIK) is to +move nodes from one sorted list into another sorted +list without copying the elements. This is possible only if the +allocators compare equal. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +Relative to the August 2009 WP, +N2857, +change 23.3.4.4 [list.ops], +paragraphs 22-25 as follows: +

        + +
        +
        void merge(list&& x);
        +template <class Compare> void merge(list&& x, Compare comp);
        +
        +
        +

        +Requires: both the list and the argument list shall be sorted +according to operator< or comp. +

        +

        +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. +

        +

        +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(). +

        +

        Discussion:

        +

        +I think the text about std::result_of could be a little more precise. +Quoting from +N2960... +

        + +
        +

        +20.7.4 [func.ret] Function object return types +

        + +
        template<class> class result_of;
        +
        +template<class Fn, class... ArgTypes>
        +class result_of<Fn(ArgTypes...)> {
        +public:
        +  typedef see below type;
        +};
        +
        + +

        +Given an rvalue fn of type Fn and values t1, t2, +..., tN of types T1, T2, ... TN in ArgTypes +respectivly, 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. +

        +
        + +

        +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>
        +typename std::result_of<Fn(Args...)>::type
        +apply(Fn && fn, Args && ...args)
        +{
        +  // Fn may be an lvalue reference, too
        +  return std::forward<Fn>(fn)(std::forward<Args>(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. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        + +

        [ +These changes will require compiler support +]

        + + +

        +Change 20.7.4 [func.ret]: +

        + +
        template<class> class result_of; // undefined
        +
        +template<class Fn, class... ArgTypes>
        +class result_of<Fn(ArgTypes...)> {
        +public:
        +  typedef see below type;
        +};
        +
        + +

        +Given an rvalue fn of type Fn and values t1, t2, +..., tN of types T1, T2, ... TN in ArgTypes +respectivly, 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. +

        + +

        +The class template result_of shall meet the requirements of a +TransformationTrait: Given the types Fn, T1, T2, ..., TN every +template specialization result_of<Fn(T1,T2,...,TN)> shall define the +member typedef type equivalent to decltype(RE) if and only if +the expression RE +

        + +
        
        +value<Fn>() ( value<T1>(), value<T2>(), ... value<TN>()  )
        +
        + +

        +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.

        +On g++ 4.2.4 (x86_64-linux-gnu), the following file gives a compile +error: +

        + +
        #include <vector>

        +
        + +

        +Is this supposed to work? +

        + +

        +The issue: if NULL happens to be defined as 0l, this is an invocation of +the constructor with two arguments of the same integral type. +23.2.3 [sequence.reqmts]/11 says that this will behave as if the 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>(first), last and +alloc, respectively. However, it does not say whether this +actually means invoking that constructor with the exact textual form of +the arguments as supplied by the user, or whether the standard permits +an implementation to invoke that constructor with variables of the same +type and value as what the user passed in. In most cases this is a +distinction without a difference. In this particular case it does make a +difference, since one of those things is a null pointer constant and the +other is not. +

        + +

        +Note that an implementation based on forwarding functions will use the +latter interpretation. +

        Discussion:

        +

        +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++. +

          + +

          +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. +

        +

        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. +

        +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. The only disadvantage of this idiom was that given two +objects f1 and f2 of type std::function the expression +

        + +
        f1 == f2;
        +
        + +

        +was well-formed, just because the built-in operator== for pointer to member +was considered after a single user-defined conversion. To fix this, an +overload set of undefined comparison functions was added, +such that overload resolution would prefer those ending up in a linkage error. +The new language facility of deleted functions provided a much better +diagnostic mechanism to fix this issue. +

        + +

        +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. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +In 20.7.15.2 [func.wrap.func]/1, class function change as indicated: +

        + +
        // 20.7.15.2.3, function capacity:

        +A lot of fixes were silently applied during concept-time and we should +not lose them again. The Requires clause of 25.3.9 [alg.unique]/5 +doesn't mention that == and the predicate need to satisfy an +EquivalenceRelation, as it is correctly said for +unique. This was intentionally fixed during conceptification, +were we had: +

        + +

        Discussion:

        +

        +In 20.7.16 [unord.hash], operator() is specified as +taking the argument by value. Moreover, it is said that operator() shall +not throw exceptions. +

        + +

        +However, for the specializations for class types, like string, wstring, +etc, the former requirement seems suboptimal from the performance point +of view (a specific PR has been filed about this in the GCC Bugzilla) +and, together with the latter requirement, hard if not impossible to +fulfill. It looks like pass by const reference should be allowed in such +cases. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +Add to 20.7.16 [unord.hash]/2: +

        + +
        +
        namespace std {
        +  template <class T>

        +  };
        +}
        +
        + +

        +The return value of operator() is unspecified, except that +equal arguments shall yield the same result. operator() shall +not throw exceptions. It is also unspecified whether +operator() of std::hash specializations for class +types takes its argument by value or const reference. +

        +

        +If v is a vector, I think repeated calls to +v.resize( v.size() + 1 ) should be amortized O(1), but it's not +clear that's true from the text of the standard: +

        +This issue is extracted as the ongoing point-of-interest from earlier +issue 463. +

        + +

        +auto_ptr is overspecified as the auto_ptr_ref +implementation detail is formally specified, and the technique is +observable so workarounds for compiler defects can cause a working +implementation of the primary auto_ptr template become +non-conforming. +

        + +

        +auto_ptr_ref is a documentation aid to describe a possible +mechanism to implement the class. It should be marked exposition only, +as per similar classes, e.g., istreambuf_iterator::proxy +

        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. +

As per +23.2.1 [container.requirements.general], paragraph 12, this holds +true not only for insert, but emplace as well. This +gives the insert member a special treatment w.r.t. +emplace member in 23.2.4 [associative.reqmts], par. 8, +since both modify the container. For the sake of consistency, in 23.2.4 [associative.reqmts], par. 8: either reference to +insert should be removed (i.e. count on 23.2.1 [container.requirements.general], par. 12), or reference to +emplace be added (i.e. mention all members of assoc. containers +that modify it). +

        Discussion:

        +

        +The effects of vector<bool>::flip has the line: +

        + +
        +It is unspecified whether the function has any effect on allocated but +unused bits. +
        + +

        +While this is technically true, it is misleading, as any member function +in any standard container may change unused but allocated memory. Users +can never observe such changes as it would also be undefined behaviour +to read such memory. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +Strike second sentence from the definition of vector<bool>::flip(), +23.3.7 [vector.bool], paragraph 5. +

        + +
        +Effects: Replaces each element in the container with its complement. +It is unspecified whether the function has any effect on allocated +but unused bits. +

        1255. declval should be added to the library

        Section: 20.3 [utility] Status: New + Submitter: Daniel Krügler Opened: 2009-11-03 Last modified: 2009-11-04

        +

        Discussion:

        +

        +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: +

        + +
        template<class T>
        +  struct declval_protector {
        +    static const bool stop = false;
        +    static typename std::add_rvalue_reference<T>::type delegate(); // undefined
        +  };
        +
        +template<class T>
        +typename std::add_rvalue_reference<T>::type declval() {
        +  static_assert(declval_protector<T>::stop, "declval() must not be used!");
        +  return declval_protector<T>::delegate();
        +}
        +
        + +

        +Further-on the earlier suggested name value() has been changed to declval() +after discussions with committee members. +

        + +

        +Finally the suggestion shown below demonstrates that it can simplify +existing standard wording by directly using it in the library +specification, and that it also improves an overlooked corner case for +common_type by adding support for cv void. +

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        [ +The following edit assumes that the earlier component identity +has been removed as part of applying the solution of 939, +N2951, +and +N2984. +Note that the proposal does not depend on this application, +but it just simplifies the editorial representation +]

        + + +
          +
        1. +

          +Change 20.3 [utility], header <utility> synopsis +as indicated: +

          + +
          // 20.3.2, forward/move:
          +template <class T, class U> T&& forward(U&& u);;
          +template <class T> typename remove_reference<T>::type&& move(T&&);
          +
          +// 20.3.3, declval:
          +template <class T> typename add_rvalue_reference<T>::type declval(); // for unused context
          +
          +
        2. + +
        3. +

          +Immediately after the current section 20.3.3 [forward] insert a +new section: +

          +

          +20.3.3 Function template declval [declval] +

          +

          +The library provides the function template declval to simplify +the definition of expressions in +unevaluated and unused contexts (3.2 [basic.def.odr], 5 [expr]). The +template parameter T of declval may +be an incomplete type. +

          + +
          template <class T> typename add_rvalue_reference<T>::type declval(); // for unused context
          +
          + +
          +

          +Remarks: If this function is used according to 3.2 [basic.def.odr], +the program shall be ill-formed. +

          + +

          +[Example: +

          + +
          
          +template<class To, class From>
          +decltype(static_cast<To>(declval<From>())) convert(From&&);
          +
          + +

          + +declares a function template convert, which does only participate in +overloading, if the type From can be +explicitly casted to type Toend example] +

          +
          + +
        4. + +
        5. +

          +This bullet just makes clear that after applying N2984, the changes in 20.6.4.3 [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 20.6.5 [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()): +

          + +
          +

          +Given the following function prototype: +

          + +
          template <class T>
          +  typename add_rvalue_reference<T>::type create();
          +
          + +

          +the predicate condition for a template specialization +is_convertible<From, To> shall be satisfied if and only +if the return expression in the following code would be well-formed, +including any +immplicit conversions to the return type of the function: +

          + +
          template <class T>
          +typename add_rvalue_reference<T>::type create();
          +To test() {
          +  return create<From>();
          +}
          +
          +
          +
        8. + +
        9. +

          +Change the entry in column "Comments" for common_type in Table 51 — +Other transformations (20.6.7 [meta.trans.other]): +

          + +

          [ +NB: This wording change extends the type domain of common_type for cv +void => cv void transformations and thus makes common_type usable for +all binary type combinations that are supported by is_convertible +]

          + + +
          +The member typedef type shall be defined as set out below. All +types in the parameter pack T shall be complete or +(possibly cv-qualified) void. A program may specialize +this trait if at least one template parameter in the specialization is a +user-defined type. [Note: Such specializations are needed when +only explicit conversions are desired among the template arguments. +— end note] +
          +
        10. + +
        11. +

          +Change 20.6.7 [meta.trans.other]/3 as indicated: +

          + +

          [ +NB: This wording change is more than an editorial simplification of +the definition of common_type: It also extends its usefulness for cv +void types as outlined above +]

          + + +
          +

          +The nested typedef common_type::type shall be defined as follows: +

          + +
          +

          +[..] +

          +
          template <class T, class U>
          +struct common_type<T, U> {
          +private:
          +  static T&& __t();
          +  static U&& __u();
          +public:
          +  typedef decltype(true ? __tdeclval<T>() : __udeclval<U>()) type;
          +};
          +
          +

        +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. +

        Discussion:

        +

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

        + +
        template<class F, Allocator Alloc>
        +  requires Callable<F, ArgTypes...>
        +    && Convertible<Callable<F, ArgTypes...>::result_type, R>
        +  void assign(F, const Alloc&);
        +
        +
        +Effects: function(f, a).swap(*this) +
        +
        + +

        +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 +

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

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

        + + +

        Proposed resolution:

        +

        +Change in 20.7.15.2.2 [func.wrap.func.mod] the complete prototype description as +indicated +

        +

        [ +Question to +the editor: Shouldn't there a paragraph number in front of the Effects clause? +]

        + + +

        +  requires Callable<F, ArgTypes...>
        +    && Convertible<Callable<F, ArgTypes...>::result_type, R>

        +According to 23.2.3 [sequence.reqmts], X(il) is +equivalent to X(il.begin(), il.end()). Should it instead be +equivalent to X(move_iterator(il.begin()), +move_iterator(il.end())) so that needless copies are not made?

    96. Vector<bool> is not a container

    Discussion:

    +

    vector<bool> is not a container as its reference and +pointer types are not references and pointers.

    + +

    Also it forces everyone to have a space optimization instead of a +speed one.

    + +

    See also: 99-0008 == N1185 Vector<bool> is +Nonconforming, Forces Optimization Choice.

    + +

    [In Santa Cruz the LWG felt that this was Not A Defect.]

    + + +

    [In Dublin many present felt that failure to meet Container +requirements was a defect. There was disagreement as to whether +or not the optimization requirements constituted a defect.]

    + + +

    [The LWG looked at the following resolutions in some detail: +
    +     * Not A Defect.
    +     * Add a note explaining that vector<bool> does not meet +Container requirements.
    +     * Remove vector<bool>.
    +     * Add a new category of container requirements which +vector<bool> would meet.
    +     * Rename vector<bool>.
    +
    +No alternative had strong, wide-spread, support and every alternative +had at least one "over my dead body" response.
    +
    +There was also mention of a transition scheme something like (1) add +vector_bool and deprecate vector<bool> in the next standard. (2) +Remove vector<bool> in the following standard.]

    + + +

    [Modifying container requirements to permit returning proxies +(thus allowing container requirements conforming vector<bool>) +was also discussed.]

    + + +

    [It was also noted that there is a partial but ugly workaround in +that vector<bool> may be further specialized with a customer +allocator.]

    + + +

    [Kona: Herb Sutter presented his paper J16/99-0035==WG21/N1211, +vector<bool>: More Problems, Better Solutions. Much discussion +of a two step approach: a) deprecate, b) provide replacement under a +new name. LWG straw vote on that: 1-favor, 11-could live with, 2-over +my dead body. This resolution was mentioned in the LWG report to the +full committee, where several additional committee members indicated +over-my-dead-body positions.]

    + + +

    Discussed at Lillehammer. General agreement that we should + deprecate vector<bool> and introduce this functionality under + a different name, e.g. bit_vector. This might make it possible to + remove the vector<bool> specialization in the standard that comes + after C++0x. There was also a suggestion that + in C++0x we could additional say that it's implementation defined + whether vector<bool> refers to the specialization or to the + primary template, but there wasn't general agreement that this was a + good idea.

    + +

    We need a paper for the new bit_vector class.

    + +

    [ +Batavia: +]

    + +
    +The LWG feels we need something closer to SGI's bitvector to ease migration +from vector<bool>. Although some of the funcitonality from +N2050 +could well be used in such a template. The concern is easing the API migration for those +users who want to continue using a bit-packed container. Alan and Beman to work. +
    + +

    [ +Post Summit Alisdair adds: +]

    + + +
    +

    +vector<bool> is now a conforming container under the revised terms of C++0x, +which supports containers of proxies. +

    +

    +Recommend NAD. +

    +

    +Two issues remain: +

    +

    +i/ premature optimization in the specification. +There is still some sentiment that deprecation is the correct way to go, +although it is still not clear what it would mean to deprecate a single +specialization of a template. +

    +

    +Recommend: Create a new issue for the discussion, leave as Open. +

    +

    +ii/ Request for a new bitvector class to guarantee the optimization, perhaps +with a better tuned interface. +

    +

    +This is a clear extension request that may be handled via a future TR. +

    +
    + +

    [ +Batavia (2009-05): +]

    + +
    +We note that most of this issue has become moot over time, +and agree with Alisdair's recommendations. +Move to NAD Future for reconsideration of part (ii). +
    + +

    [ +2009-07-29 Alisdair reopens: +]

    + + +
    +

    +This infamous issue was closed as NAD Future when concepts introduced +support for proxy iterators, so the only remaining requirement was to +provide a better type to support bitsets of dynamic length. I fear we +must re-open this issue until the post-concept form of iterators is +available, and hopefully will support the necessary proxy functionality +to allow us to close this issue as NAD. +

    + +

    +I recommend we spawn a separate issue (1184) requesting a dynamic length bitset +and pre-emptively file it as NAD Future. It is difficult to resolve #96 +when it effectively contains two separate sub-issues. +

    +
    + +

    [ +2009-10 Santa Cruz: +]

    + + +
    +Mark as NAD, and give rationale. +
    + + + +

    Proposed resolution:

    +

    +We now have: +N2050 +and +N2160. +

    + + + +

    Rationale:

    +

    +We want to support proxy iterators but that is going to be separate +work. Don't want to see this issue come back in these kinds of terms. +We're interested in a separate container, and proxy iterators, but both +of those are separate issues. +

    +

    +We've looked at a lot of ways to fix this that would be close to this, +but those things would break existing code. Attempts to fix this +directly have not been tractable, and removing it has not been +tractable. Therefore we are closing. +

    431. Swapping containers with unequal allocators

    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. 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(...);

    Discussion:

    + +

    +TC1 CWG DR #84 effectively made the template<class Y> operator auto_ptr<Y>() +member of auto_ptr (20.4.5.3/4) obsolete. +

    + +

    +The sole purpose of this obsolete conversion member is to enable copy +initialization base from r-value derived (or any convertible types like +cv-types) case: +

    +
    #include <memory>
    +using std::auto_ptr;
    +
    +struct B {};
    +struct D : B {};
    +
    +auto_ptr<D> source();
    +int sink(auto_ptr<B>);
    +int x1 = sink( source() ); // #1 EDG - no suitable copy constructor
    +
    + +

    +The excellent analysis of conversion operations that was given in the final +auto_ptr proposal +(http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/1997/N1128.pdf) +explicitly specifies this case analysis (case 4). DR #84 makes the analysis +wrong and actually comes to forbid the loophole that was exploited by the +auto_ptr designers. +

    + +

    +I didn't encounter any compliant compiler (e.g. EDG, GCC, BCC and VC) that +ever allowed this case. This is probably because it requires 3 user defined +conversions and in fact current compilers conform to DR #84. +

    + +

    +I was surprised to discover that the obsolete conversion member actually has +negative impact of the copy initialization base from l-value derived +case:

    +
    auto_ptr<D> dp;
    +int x2 = sink(dp); // #2 EDG - more than one user-defined conversion applies
    +
    + +

    +I'm sure that the original intention was allowing this initialization using +the template<class Y> auto_ptr(auto_ptr<Y>& a) constructor (20.4.5.1/4) but +since in this copy initialization it's merely user defined conversion (UDC) +and the obsolete conversion member is UDC with the same rank (for the early +overloading stage) there is an ambiguity between them. +

    + +

    +Removing the obsolete member will have impact on code that explicitly +invokes it: +

    +
    int y = sink(source().operator auto_ptr<B>());
    +
    + +

    +IMHO no one ever wrote such awkward code and the reasonable workaround for +#1 is: +

    +
    int y = sink( auto_ptr<B>(source()) );
    +
    + +

    +I was even more surprised to find out that after removing the obsolete +conversion member the initialization was still ill-formed: +int x3 = sink(dp); // #3 EDG - no suitable copy constructor +

    + +

    +This copy initialization semantically requires copy constructor which means +that both template conversion constructor and the auto_ptr_ref conversion +member (20.4.5.3/3) are required which is what was explicitly forbidden in +DR #84. This is a bit amusing case in which removing ambiguity results with +no candidates. +

    + +

    +I also found exception safety issue with auto_ptr related to auto_ptr_ref: +

    +
    int f(auto_ptr<B>, std::string);
    +auto_ptr<B> source2();
    +
    +// string constructor throws while auto_ptr_ref
    +// "holds" the pointer
    +int x4 = f(source2(), "xyz"); // #4
    +
    + +

    +The theoretic execution sequence that will cause a leak: +

    +
      +
    1. call auto_ptr<B>::operator auto_ptr_ref<B>()
    2. +
    3. call string::string(char const*) and throw
    4. +
    + +

    +According to 20.4.5.3/3 and 20.4.5/2 the auto_ptr_ref conversion member +returns auto_ptr_ref<Y> that holds *this and this is another defect since +the type of *this is auto_ptr<X> where X might be different from Y. Several +library vendors (e.g. SGI) implement auto_ptr_ref<Y> with Y* as member which +is much more reasonable. Other vendor implemented auto_ptr_ref as +defectively required and it results with awkward and catastrophic code: +int oops = sink(auto_ptr<B>(source())); // warning recursive on all control +paths +

    + +

    +Dave Abrahams noticed that there is no specification saying that +auto_ptr_ref copy constructor can't throw. +

    + +

    +My proposal comes to solve all the above issues and significantly simplify +auto_ptr implementation. One of the fundamental requirements from auto_ptr +is that it can be constructed in an intuitive manner (i.e. like ordinary +pointers) but with strict ownership semantics which yield that source +auto_ptr in initialization must be non-const. My idea is to add additional +constructor template with sole propose to generate ill-formed, diagnostic +required, instance for const auto_ptr arguments during instantiation of +declaration. This special constructor will not be instantiated for other +types which is achievable using 14.8.2/2 (SFINAE). Having this constructor +in hand makes the constructor template<class Y> auto_ptr(auto_ptr<Y> const&) +legitimate since the actual argument can't be const yet non const r-value +are acceptable. +

    + +

    +This implementation technique makes the "private auxiliary class" +auto_ptr_ref obsolete and I found out that modern C++ compilers (e.g. EDG, +GCC and VC) consume the new implementation as expected and allow all +intuitive initialization and assignment cases while rejecting illegal cases +that involve const auto_ptr arguments. +

    + +

    The proposed auto_ptr interface:

    + +
    namespace std {
    +    template<class X> class auto_ptr {
    +    public:
    +        typedef X element_type;
    +
    +        // 20.4.5.1 construct/copy/destroy:
    +        explicit auto_ptr(X* p=0) throw();
    +        auto_ptr(auto_ptr&) throw();
    +        template<class Y> auto_ptr(auto_ptr<Y> const&) throw();
    +        auto_ptr& operator=(auto_ptr&) throw();
    +        template<class Y> auto_ptr& operator=(auto_ptr<Y>) throw();
    +        ~auto_ptr() throw();
    +
    +        // 20.4.5.2 members:
    +        X& operator*() const throw();
    +        X* operator->() const throw();
    +        X* get() const throw();
    +        X* release() throw();
    +        void reset(X* p=0) throw();
    +
    +    private:
    +        template<class U>
    +        auto_ptr(U& rhs, typename
    +unspecified_error_on_const_auto_ptr<U>::type = 0);
    +    };
    +}
    +
    + +

    +One compliant technique to implement the unspecified_error_on_const_auto_ptr +helper class is using additional private auto_ptr member class template like +the following: +

    +
    template<typename T> struct unspecified_error_on_const_auto_ptr;
    +
    +template<typename T>
    +struct unspecified_error_on_const_auto_ptr<auto_ptr<T> const>
    +{ typedef typename auto_ptr<T>::const_auto_ptr_is_not_allowed type; };
    +
    + +

    +There are other techniques to implement this helper class that might work +better for different compliers (i.e. better diagnostics) and therefore I +suggest defining its semantic behavior without mandating any specific +implementation. IMO, and I didn't found any compiler that thinks otherwise, +14.7.1/5 doesn't theoretically defeat the suggested technique but I suggest +verifying this with core language experts. +

    + +

    Further changes in standard text:

    +

    Remove section 20.4.5.3

    + +

    Change 20.4.5/2 to read something like: +Initializing auto_ptr<X> from const auto_ptr<Y> will result with unspecified +ill-formed declaration that will require unspecified diagnostic.

    + +

    Change 20.4.5.1/4,5,6 to read:

    + +
    template<class Y> auto_ptr(auto_ptr<Y> const& a) throw();
    +

    4 Requires: Y* can be implicitly converted to X*.

    +

    5 Effects: Calls const_cast<auto_ptr<Y>&>(a).release().

    +

    6 Postconditions: *this holds the pointer returned from a.release().

    + +

    Change 20.4.5.1/10

    +
    template<class Y> auto_ptr& operator=(auto_ptr<Y> a) throw();
    +
    +

    +10 Requires: Y* can be implicitly converted to X*. The expression delete +get() is well formed. +

    + +

    LWG TC DR #127 is obsolete.

    + +

    +Notice that the copy constructor and copy assignment operator should remain +as before and accept non-const auto_ptr& since they have effect on the form +of the implicitly declared copy constructor and copy assignment operator of +class that contains auto_ptr as member per 12.8/5,10: +

    +
    struct X {
    +    // implicit X(X&)
    +    // implicit X& operator=(X&)
    +    auto_ptr<D> aptr_;
    +};
    +
    + +

    +In most cases this indicates about sloppy programming but preserves the +current auto_ptr behavior. +

    + +

    +Dave Abrahams encouraged me to suggest fallback implementation in case that +my suggestion that involves removing of auto_ptr_ref will not be accepted. +In this case removing the obsolete conversion member to auto_ptr<Y> and +20.4.5.3/4,5 is still required in order to eliminate ambiguity in legal +cases. The two constructors that I suggested will co exist with the current +members but will make auto_ptr_ref obsolete in initialization contexts. +auto_ptr_ref will be effective in assignment contexts as suggested in DR +#127 and I can't see any serious exception safety issues in those cases +(although it's possible to synthesize such). auto_ptr_ref<X> semantics will +have to be revised to say that it strictly holds pointer of type X and not +reference to an auto_ptr for the favor of cases in which auto_ptr_ref<Y> is +constructed from auto_ptr<X> in which X is different from Y (i.e. assignment +from r-value derived to base). +

    + +

    [ +209-10-04 Daniel adds: +]

    + + +
    +

    +I suggest to close this issue as NAD. The reasons are two-fold: First, the +suggested proposed resolution uses no longer appropriate language means +to solve this issue, which has the effect that the recommended resolution is +another - but better - form of hack. Second, either following the suggested +resolution or the now more natural alternative via the added member set +

    + +
    template<class Y> auto_ptr(auto_ptr<Y>&&) throw();
    +template<class Y> auto_ptr& operator=(auto_ptr<Y>&&) throw();
    +
    + +

    +would still have a non-zero probability to break user-code that actively +references auto_ptr_ref. This risk seems to indicate that a +decision which would not touch the current spec of auto_ptr at +all (but deprecating it) and instead recommending to use +unique_ptr for new code instead might have the best +cost-benefit ratio. IMO the current solution of 1100 can +be considered as an active user-support for this transition. +

    Discussion:

    +

    From comp.std.c++:

    + +

    +I note that given an input iterator a for type T, +then *a only has to be "convertable to T", not actually of type T. +

    + +

    Firstly, I can't seem to find an exact definition of "convertable to T". +While I assume it is the obvious definition (an implicit conversion), I +can't find an exact definition. Is there one?

    + +

    Slightly more worryingly, there doesn't seem to be any restriction on +the this type, other than it is "convertable to T". Consider two input +iterators a and b. I would personally assume that most people would +expect *a==*b would perform T(*a)==T(*b), however it doesn't seem that +the standard requires that, and that whatever type *a is (call it U) +could have == defined on it with totally different symantics and still +be a valid inputer iterator.

    + +

    Is this a correct reading? When using input iterators should I write +T(*a) all over the place to be sure that the object i'm using is the +class I expect?

    + +

    This is especially a nuisance for operations that are defined to be + "convertible to bool". (This is probably allowed so that + implementations could return say an int and avoid an unnessary + conversion. However all implementations I have seen simply return a + bool anyway. Typical implemtations of STL algorithms just write + things like while(a!=b && *a!=0). But strictly + speaking, there are lots of types that are convertible to T but + that also overload the appropriate operators so this doesn't behave + as expected.

    + +

    If we want to make code like this legal (which most people seem to + expect), then we'll need to tighten up what we mean by "convertible + to T".

    + +

    [Lillehammer: The first part is NAD, since "convertible" is + well-defined in core. The second part is basically about pathological + overloads. It's a minor problem but a real one. So leave open for + now, hope we solve it as part of iterator redesign.]

    +

    + +Specifically, I propose to change 23.2 [container.requirements], +p9 as follows: + +

    +
    +

    +-9- Copy constructors for all container types defined in this clause +that are parametrized on Allocator copy +anthe allocator argument from their respective +first parameters. + +All other constructors for these container types take an +const Allocator& argument (20.1.6), an +allocator whose value_type is the same as the container's +value_type. + +A copy of this argument isshall be used for any +memory allocation and deallocation performed, +by these constructors and by all member functions, during +the lifetime of each container object. Allocation shall be +performed "as if" by calling the allocate() member +function on a copy of the allocator object of the appropriate type +New Footnote), and deallocation "as if" by calling +deallocate() on a copy of the same allocator object of +the corresponding type. + +A copy of this argument shall also be used to construct and +destroy objects whose lifetime is managed by the container, including +but not limited to those of the container's value_type, +and to obtain their address. All objects residing in storage +allocated by a container's allocator shall be constructed "as if" by +calling the construct() member function on a copy of the +allocator object of the appropriate type. The same objects shall be +destroyed "as if" by calling destroy() on a copy of the +same allocator object of the same type. The address of such objects +shall be obtained "as if" by calling the address() member +function on a copy of the allocator object of the appropriate +type. + +Finally, a copy of this argument shall be used by its container +object to determine the maximum number of objects of the container's +value_type the container may store at the same time. The +container member function max_size() obtains this number +from the value returned by a call to +get_allocator().max_size(). + +In all container types defined in this clause that are +parametrized on Allocator, the member +get_allocator() returns a copy of the +Allocator object used to construct the +container.258) +

    +

    +New Footnote: This type may be different from Allocator: +it may be derived from Allocator via +Allocator::rebind<U>::other for the appropriate +type U. +

    +
    +

    + +The proposed wording seems cumbersome but I couldn't think of a better +way to describe the requirement that containers use their +Allocator to manage only objects (regardless of their +type) that persist over their lifetimes and not, for example, +temporaries created on the stack. That is, containers shouldn't be +required to call Allocator::construct(Allocator::allocate(1), +elem) just to construct a temporary copy of an element, or +Allocator::destroy(Allocator::address(temp), 1) to +destroy temporaries. + +

    +

    Discussion:

    +

    +The wording used for section 23.2.1 [lib.array] seems to be subtly +ambiguous about zero sized arrays (N==0). Specifically: +

    +

    +* "An instance of array<T, N> stores N elements of type T, so that +[...]" +

    +

    +Does this imply that a zero sized array object stores 0 elements, i.e. +that it cannot store any element of type T? The next point clarifies +the rationale behind this question, basically how to implement begin() +and end(): +

    +

    +* 23.2.1.5 [lib.array.zero], p2: "In the case that N == 0, begin() == +end() == unique value." +

    +

    +What does "unique" mean in this context? Let's consider the following +possible implementations, all relying on a partial specialization: +

    +
    a)
    +    template< typename T >
    +    class array< T, 0 > {
    +    
    +        ....
    +
    +        iterator begin()
    +        { return iterator( reinterpret_cast< T * >( this ) ); }
    +        ....
    +
    +    };
    +
    +

    +This has been used in boost, probably intending that the return value +had to be unique to the specific array object and that array couldn't +store any T. Note that, besides relying on a reinterpret_cast, has +(more than potential) alignment problems. +

    +
    b)
    +    template< typename T >
    +    class array< T, 0 > {
    +    
    +        T t;
    +
    +        iterator begin()
    +        { return iterator( &t ); }
    +        ....
    +
    +    };
    +
    +

    +This provides a value which is unique to the object and to the type of +the array, but requires storing a T. Also, it would allow the user to +mistakenly provide an initializer list with one element. +

    +

    +A slight variant could be returning *the* null pointer of type T +

    +
        return static_cast<T*>(0);
    +
    +

    +In this case the value would be unique to the type array<T, 0> but not +to the objects (all objects of type array<T, 0> with the same value +for T would yield the same pointer value). +

    +

    +Furthermore this is inconsistent with what the standard requires from +allocation functions (see library issue 9). +

    +

    +c) same as above but with t being a static data member; again, the +value would be unique to the type, not to the object. +

    +

    +d) to avoid storing a T *directly* while disallowing the possibility +to use a one-element initializer list a non-aggregate nested class +could be defined +

    +
        struct holder { holder() {} T t; } h;
    +
    +

    +and then begin be defined as +

    +
     iterator begin() { return &h.t; }
    +
    +

    +But then, it's arguable whether the array stores a T or not. +Indirectly it does. +

    +

    +----------------------------------------------------- +

    +

    +Now, on different issues: +

    +

    +* what's the effect of calling assign(T&) on a zero-sized array? There +seems to be only mention of front() and back(), in 23.2.1 [lib.array] +p4 (I would also suggest to move that bullet to section 23.2.1.5 +[lib.array.zero], for locality of reference) +

    +

    +* (minor) the opening paragraph of 23.2.1 [lib.array] wording is a bit +inconsistent with that of other sequences: that's not a problem in +itself, but compare it for instance with "A vector is a kind of +sequence that supports random access iterators"; though the intent is +obvious one might argue that the wording used for arrays doesn't tell +what an array is, and relies on the reader to infer that it is what +the <array> header defines. +

    +

    +* it would be desiderable to have a static const data member of type +std::size_t, with value N, for usage as integral constant expression +

    +

    +* section 23.1 [lib.container.requirements] seem not to consider +fixed-size containers at all, as it says: "[containers] control +allocation and deallocation of these objects [the contained objects] +through constructors, destructors, *insert and erase* operations" +

    +

    +* max_size() isn't specified: the result is obvious but, technically, +it relies on table 80: "size() of the largest possible container" +which, again, doesn't seem to consider fixed size containers +

    + +

    +
    a.address(r)
    +a.address(s)
    +

    +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). +

    +22.4.6.1.2 [locale.money.get.virtuals], para 3 says: +

    + +

    +If pos or neg is empty, the sign component is +optional, and if no sign is detected, the result is given the sign +that corresponds to the source of the empty string. +

    + +

    +The following objection has been raised: +

    + +

    +A negative_sign of "" means "there is no +way to write a negative sign" not "any null sequence is a negative +sign, so it's always there when you look for it". +

    [ +Kona (2007): Bill to provide proposed wording and interpretation of existing wording. +]

    + + +

    +Related to 669. +

    + +

    [ +2009-05-17 Howard adds: +]

    + + +
    +

    +I disagree that a negative_sign of "" means "there is no +way to +write a negative sign". The meaning requires the sentences of +22.4.6.1.2 [locale.money.get.virtuals] p3 following that quoted above +to be +taken into account: +

    + +
    +-3- ... If pos or neg is empty, the sign component is +optional, and if no sign is detected, the result is given the sign that +corresponds to the source of the empty string. Otherwise, the character +in the indicated position must match the first character of pos +or neg, and the result is given the corresponding sign. If the +first character of pos is equal to the first character of +neg, or if both strings are empty, the result is given a +positive sign. +
    + +

    +So a negative_sign of "" means "there is no way to write a +negative sign" only when positive_sign is also "". However +when negative_sign is "" and postive_sign.size() > +0, then one writes a negative value by not writing the +postive_sign in the position indicated by +money_base::sign. +For example: +

    + +
    pattern = {symbol, sign, value, none}
    +positive_sign = "+"
    +negative_sign = ""
    +$123   // a negative value, using optional sign
    +$+123  // a positive value
    +$-123  // a parse error
    +
    + +

    +And: +

    + +
    pattern = {symbol, sign, value, none}
    +positive_sign = ""
    +negative_sign = ""
    +$123   // a positive value, no sign possible
    +$+123  // a parse error
    +$-123  // a parse error
    +
    + + +

    +And (regarding 669): +

    + +
    pattern = {symbol, sign, value, none}
    +positive_sign = "-"

    +$123   // a parse error, sign is mandatory
    +$+123  // a parse error
    +$-123  // a positive value
    +
    + + +

    +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: +

      +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. +

      + + +
      +

      +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. +

      + + +
      +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) +

      +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. +

      +Currently std::mutex doesn't support static initialization. This is a +regression with respect to pthread_mutex_t, which does. I believe that +we should strive to eliminate such regressions in expressive power where +possible, both to ease migration and to not provide incentives to (or +force) people to forego the C++ primitives in favor of pthreads. +

      +We believe this is implementable on POSIX, because the initializer-list +feature and the constexpr feature make this work. Double-check core +language about static initialization for this case. Ask core for a core +issue about order of destruction of statically-initialized objects wrt. +dynamically-initialized objects (should come afterwards). Check +non-POSIX systems for implementability. +

      +If ubiquitous implementability cannot be assured, plan B is to introduce +another constructor, make this constexpr, which is +conditionally-supported. To avoid ambiguities, this new constructor needs +to have an additional parameter. +

    + + +
    +

    +I'm not disagreeing with the NAD Future resolution. But when the future gets +here, here is a possibility worth exploring: +

    + +
    +

    +Add to the "unique" associative containers: +

    + +
    typedef details      node_ptr;
    +
    +node_ptr             remove(const_iterator p);
    +pair<iterator, bool> insert(node_ptr&& nd);
    +iterator             insert(const_iterator p, node_ptr&& nd);
    +
    + +

    +And add to the "multi" associative containers: +

    + +
    typedef details node_ptr;
    +
    +node_ptr remove(const_iterator p);
    +iterator insert(node_ptr&& nd);
    +iterator insert(const_iterator p, node_ptr&& nd);
    +
    + +

    +Container::node_ptr is a smart pointer much like unique_ptr. +It owns a node obtained from the container it was removed from. It maintains a +reference to the allocator in the container so that it can properly deallocate +the node if asked to, even if the allocator is stateful. This being said, the +node_ptr can not outlive the container for this reason. +

    + +

    +The node_ptr offers "const-free" access to the node's +value_type. +

    + +

    +With this interface, clients have a great deal of flexibility: +

    + +
      +
    • +A client can remove a node from one container, and insert it into another +(without any heap allocation). This is the splice functionality this issue +asks for. +
    • +
    • +A client can remove a node from a container, change its key or value, and insert +it back into the same container, or another container, all without the cost of +allocating a node. +
    • +
    • +If the Compare function is nothrow (which is very common), then this functionality +is nothrow unless modifying the value throws. And if this does throw, it does +so outside of the containers involved. +
    • +
    • +If the Compare function does throw, the insert function will have the +argument nd retain ownership of the node. +
    • +
    • +The node_ptr should be independent of the Compare parameter +so that a node can be transferred from set<T, C1, A> +to set<T, C2, A> (for example). +
    • +
    + +

    +Here is how the customer might use this functionality: +

    + +
      +
    • +

      +Splice a node from one container to another: +

      +
      m2.insert(m1.remove(i));
      +
      +
    • + +
    • +

      +Change the "key" in a std::map without the cost of node reallocation: +

      +
      auto p = m.remove(i);
      +p->first = new_key;
      +m.insert(std::move(p));
      +
      +
    • + +
    • +

      +Change the "value" in a std::set without the cost of node reallocation: +

      +
      auto p = s.remove(i);
      +*p = new_value;
      +s.insert(std::move(p));
      +
      +
    • + +
    • +

      +Move a move-only or heavy object out of an associative container (as opposed to +the proposal in 1041): +

      +
      MoveOnly x = std::move(*s.remove(i));
      +
      +
        +
      1. +remove(i) transfers ownership of the node from the set to a temporary +node_ptr. +
      2. +
      3. +The node_ptr is dereferenced, and that non-const reference is sent to +move to cast it to an rvalue. +
      4. +
      5. +The rvalue MoveOnly is move constructed into x from +the node_ptr. +
      6. +
      7. +~node_ptr() destructs the moved-from MoveOnly and deallocates +the node. +
      8. +
      + +

      +Contrast this with the 1041 solution: +

      +
      MoveOnly x = std::move(s.extract(i).first);
      +
      + +

      +The former requires one move construction for x while the latter +requires two (one into the pair and then one into x). Either +of these constructions can throw (say if there is only a copy constructor for +x). With the former, the point of throw is outside of the container +s, after the element has been removed from the container. With the latter, +one throwing construction takes place prior to the removal of the element, and +the second takes place after the element is removed. +

      + +
    • +
    + +

    +The "node insertion" API maintains the API associated with inserting value_types +so the customer can use familiar techniques for getting an iterator to the +inserted node, or finding out whether it was inserted or not for the "unique" +containers. +

    + +

    +Lightly prototyped. No implementation problems. Appears to work great +for the client. +

    +This is an issue that came up on the libstdc++ list, where a +discrepancy between "C" arrays and C++0x's std::array was pointed +out. +

    + +

    +In "C," this array usage is possible: +

    + +
    int ar[] = {1, 4, 6};
    +
    + +

    +But for C++, +

    + +
    std::array<int> a = { 1, 4, 6 }; // error

    [ +2009-06-07 Daniel adds: +]

    + + +
    +

    +I suggest a fix and a simplification of the current proposal: Recent +prototyping by +Howard showed, that a fix is required because narrowing conversion +8.5.4 [dcl.init.list]/6 b.3 +would severely limit the possible distribution of argument types, e.g. +the expression +make_array<double>(1, 2.0) is ill-formed, because the narrowing +happens inside the +function body where no constant expressions exist anymore. Furthermore +given e.g. +

    +
    int f();
    +double g();
    +
    +

    +we probably want to support +

    +
    make_array<double>(f(), g());
    +
    + +

    +as well. To make this feasible, the currently suggested expansion +

    + +
    { std::forward<Args>(args)... }
    +
    + +

    +needs to be replaced by +

    + +
    { static_cast<T>(std::forward<Args>(args))... }
    +
    + +

    +which is safe, because we already ensure convertibility via the +element-wise Convertible<Args, T> requirement. Some other fixes are +necessary: The ValueType requirement for the function parameters +is invalid, because all lvalue arguments will deduce to an lvalue-reference, +thereby no longer satisfying this requirement. +

    + +

    +The suggested simplification is to provide a default-computed effective +type for the result array based on common_type and decay, in +unconstrained form: +

    + +
    template<typename... Args>
    +array<typename decay<typename common_type<Args...>::type>::type,
    +sizeof...(Args)>
    +make_array(Args&&... args);
    +
    + +

    +The approach used below is similar to that of make_pair and make_tuple +using a symbol C to represent the decayed common type [Note: Special +handling of reference_wrapper types is intentionally not provided, because +our target has so satisfy ValueType, thus under the revised proposal only +an all-reference_wrapper-arguments would be well-formed and an array of +reference_wrapper will be constructed]. I do currently not suggest to +add new concepts reflecting decay and common_type, but an implementor will +need something like this to succeed. Note that we use a similar fuzziness for +make_pair and make_tuple currently. This fuzziness is not related to +the currently +missing Constructible<Vi, Ti&&> requirement for those functions. The following +proposal fixes that miss for make_array. If the corresponding C type +deduction is +explicitly wanted for standardization, here the implementation +

    auto concept DC<typename... T> {
    +  typename type = typename decay<typename common_type<T...>::type>::type;
    +}
    +
    + +

    +where C is identical to DC<Args...>::type in the proposed resolution below. +

    +

    +I intentionally added no further type relation between type and the concept +template parameters, but instead added this requirement below to make +the specification as transparent as possible. As written this concept is +satisfied, if the corresponding associated type exists. +

    +

    +This issue was split off from 892 at the request of the LWG. +

    + +

    [ +San Francisco: +]

    + + +
    +

    +This issue is more complicated than it looks. +

    +

    +paragraph 47: replace each (first, last) with (first, last] +

    +

    +add a statement after paragraph 48 that complexity is O(1) +

    +

    +remove the complexity statement from the first overload of splice_after +

    +

    +We may have the same problems with other modifiers, like erase_after. +Should it require that all iterators in the range (position, last] be +dereferenceable? +

    +
    + +

    +There are actually 3 issues here: +

    + +
      +
    1. +

      +What value should erase_after return? With list, code often +looks like: +

      +
      for (auto i = l.begin(); i != l.end();)
      +{
      +    // inspect *i and decide if you want to erase it
      +    // ...
      +    if (I want to erase *i)
      +        i = l.erase(i);
      +    else
      +        ++i;
      +}
      +
      +

      +I.e. the iterator returned from erase is useful for setting up the +logic for operating on the next element. For forward_list this might +look something like: +

      +
      auto i = fl.before_begin();
      +auto ip1 = i;
      +for (++ip1; ip1 != fl.end(); ++ip1)
      +{
      +    // inspect *(i+1) and decide if you want to erase it
      +    // ...
      +    if (I want to erase *(i+1))
      +        i = fl.erase_after(i);
      +    else
      +        ++i;
      +    ip1 = i;
      +}
      +
      +

      +In the above example code, it is convenient if erase_after returns +the element prior to the erased element (range) instead of the element +after the erase element (range). +

      +

      +Existing practice: +

      +
        +
      • SGI slist returns an iterator referencing the element after the erased range.
      • +
      • CodeWarrior slist returns an iterator referencing the element before the erased range.
      • +
      +

      +There is not a strong technical argument for either solution over the other. +

      +
    2. + +
    3. +

      +With all other containers, operations always work on the range +[first, last) and/or prior to the given position. +

      +

      +With forward_list, operations sometimes work on the range +(first, last] and/or after the given position. +

      +

      +This is simply due to the fact that in order to operate on +*first (with forward_list) one needs access to +*(first-1). And that's not practical with +forward_list. So the operating range needs to start with (first, +not [first (as the current working paper says). +

      +

      +Additionally, if one is interested in splicing the range (first, last), +then (with forward_list), one needs practical (constant time) access to +*(last-1) so that one can set the next field in this node to +the proper value. As this is not possible with forward_list, one must +specify the last element of interest instead of one past the last element of +interest. The syntax for doing this is to pass (first, last] instead +of (first, last). +

      +

      +With erase_after we have a choice of either erasing the range +(first, last] or (first, last). Choosing the latter +enables: +

      +
      x.erase_after(pos, x.end());
      +
      + +

      +With the former, the above statement is inconvenient or expensive due to the lack +of constant time access to x.end()-1. However we could introduce: +

      + +
      iterator erase_to_end(const_iterator position);
      +
      + +

      +to compensate. +

      + +

      +The advantage of the former ((first, last]) for erase_after +is a consistency with splice_after which uses (first, last] +as the specified range. But this either requires the addition of erase_to_end +or giving up such functionality. +

      + +
    4. + +
    5. +As stated in the discussion of 892, and reienforced by point 2 above, +a splice_after should work on the source range (first, last] +if the operation is to be Ο(1). When splicing an entire list x the +algorithm needs (x.before_begin(), x.end()-1]. Unfortunately x.end()-1 +is not available in constant time unless we specify that it must be. In order to +make x.end()-1 available in constant time, the implementation would have +to dedicate a pointer to it. I believe the design of +N2543 +intended a nominal overhead of foward_list of 1 pointer. Thus splicing +one entire forward_list into another can not be Ο(1). +

    +

    +Alan suggested removing the "foward_last<T. Alloc>&& x" +parameter from the second form of splice_after, because it is redundant. +PJP wanted to keep it, because it allows him to check for bad ranges +(i.e. "Granny knots"). +

      Addresses US 90

      + +

      +The deleted copy-assignment operators for the atomic types are not +marked as volatile in N2723, whereas the assignment operators from the +associated non-atomic types are. e.g. +

      +
      atomic_bool& operator=(atomic_bool const&) = delete;
      +atomic_bool& operator=(bool) volatile;
      +
      + +

      +This leads to ambiguity when assigning a non-atomic value to a +non-volatile instance of an atomic type: +

      +
      atomic_bool b;
      +b=false;
      +
      + +

      +Both assignment operators require a standard conversions: the +copy-assignment operator can use the implicit atomic_bool(bool) +conversion constructor to convert false to an instance of +atomic_bool, or b can undergo a qualification conversion in order to +use the assignment from a plain bool. +

      + +

      +This is only a problem once issue 845 is applied. +

      +Add volatile qualification to the deleted copy-assignment operator of +all the atomic types: +

      atomic_bool& operator=(atomic_bool const&) volatile = delete;

      +etc. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +Right now, the compare_exchange_weak loop should rapidly converge on the +padding contents. But compare_exchange_strong will require a bit more +compiler work to ignore padding for comparison purposes. +

          +

          +Note that this isn't a problem for structs with no padding, and we do +already have one portable way to ensure that there is no padding that +covers the key use cases: Have elements be the same type. I suspect that +the greatest need is for a structure of two pointers, which has no +padding problem. I suspect the second need is a structure of a pointer +and some form of an integer. If that integer is intptr_t, there will be +no padding. +

          +

          +Related but separable issue: For unused bitfields, or other unused +fields for that matter, we should probably say it's the programmer's +responsibility to set them to zero or otherwise ensure they'll be +ignored by memcmp. +

          + +

          +Proposed resolutions: Using +atomic<struct-with-padding>::compare_exchange_strong should be either: +

          + +
            +
          1. +ill-formed, or +
          2. +
          3. +well-defined. +
          4. +
          + +

          +I propose Option 1 for C++0x for expediency, though I'm not sure how to +say it. I would be happy with Option 2, which I believe would mean that +compare_exchange_strong would be implemented to avoid comparing padding +bytes, or something equivalent such as always zeroing out padding when +loading/storing/comparing. (Either implementation might require compiler +support.) +

          Discussion:

          +

          Addresses UK 313

          + +

          +There was an interesting issue raised over on comp.programming.threads +today regarding the following example +

          + +
          // Thread 1:
          +x.store(1, memory_order_relaxed);           // SX
          +atomic_thread_fence(memory_order_seq_cst);  // F1
          +y.store(1, memory_order_relaxed);           // SY1
          +atomic_thread_fence(memory_order_seq_cst);  // F2
          +r1 = y.load(memory_order_relaxed);          // RY
          +
          +// Thread 2:
          +y.store(0, memory_order_relaxed);          // SY2
          +atomic_thread_fence(memory_order_seq_cst); // F3
          +r2 = x.load(memory_order_relaxed);         // RX
          +
          + +

          +is the outcome r1 == 0 and r2 == 0 possible? +

          +

          +I think the intent is that this is not possible, but I am not sure the +wording guarantees that. Here is my analysis: +

          +

          +Since all the fences are SC, there must be a total order between them. +F1 must be before F2 in that order since they are in +the same thread. Therefore F3 is either before F1, +between F1 and F2 or after F2. +

          +

          +If F3 is after F2, then we can apply 29.3 [atomics.order]p5 from +N2798: +

          + +
          +For atomic operations A and B on an atomic object +M, where A modifies M and B takes +its value, if there are memory_order_seq_cst fences X +and Y such that A is sequenced before X, +Y is sequenced before B, and X precedes +Y in S, then B observes either the effects of +A or a later modification of M in its modification +order. +
          + +

          +In this case, A is SX, B is RX, the +fence X is F2 and the fence Y is F3, +so RX must see 1. +

          +

          +If F3 is before F2, this doesn't apply, but +F3 can therefore be before or after F1. +

          +

          +If F3 is after F1, the same logic applies, but this +time the fence X is F1. Therefore again, RX +must see 1. +

          +

          +Finally we have the case that F3 is before F1 +in the SC ordering. There are now no guarantees about RX, and +RX can see r2==0. +

          +

          +We can apply 29.3 [atomics.order]p5 again. This time, +A is SY2, B is RY, X is +F3 and Y is F1. Thus RY must observe +the effects of SY2 or a later modification of y in its +modification order. +

          +

          +Since SY1 is sequenced before RY, RY must +observe the effects of SY1 or a later modification of +y in its modification order. +

          +

          +In order to ensure that RY sees (r1==1), we must see +that SY1 is later in the modification order of y than +SY2. +

          +

          +We're now skating on thin ice. Conceptually, SY2 happens-before +F3, F3 is SC-ordered before F1, F1 +happens-before SY1, so SY1 is later in the +modification order M of y, and RY must see +the result of SY1 (r1==1). However, I don't think the +words are clear on that. +

          + +

          [ +Post Summit Hans adds: +]

          + + +
          +

          +In my (Hans') view, our definition of fences will always be weaker than +what particular hardware will guarantee. Memory_order_seq_cst fences +inherently don't guarantee sequential consistency anyway, for good +reasons (e.g. because they can't enforce a total order on stores). + Hence I don't think the issue demonstrates a gross failure to achieve +what we intended to achieve. The example in question is a bit esoteric. + Hence, in my view, living with the status quo certainly wouldn't be a +disaster either. +

          +

          +In any case, we should probably add text along the lines of the +following between p5 and p6 in 29.3 [atomics.order]: +

          +
          +[Note: Memory_order_seq_cst only ensures sequential consistency for a +data-race-free program that uses exclusively memory_order_seq_cst +operations. Any use of weaker ordering will invalidate this guarantee +unless extreme care is used. In particular, memory_order_seq_cst fences +only ensure a total order for the fences themselves. They cannot, in +general, be used to restore sequential consistency for atomic operations +with weaker ordering specifications.] +
          + +

          +Also see thread beginning at c++std-lib-23271. +

          [ +Herve's correction: +]

          + +
          +

          +Minor point, and sorry for the knee jerk reaction: I admit to having +no knowledge of Memory_order_seq_cst, but my former boss (John Lakos) +has ingrained an automatic introspection on the use of "only". I +think you meant: +

          +[Note: Memory_order_seq_cst ensures sequential consistency only +for . . . . In particular, memory_order_seq_cst fences ensure a +total order only for . . . +
          +

          +Unless, of course, Memory_order_seq_cst really do nothing but ensure +sequential consistency for a data-race-free program that uses +exclusively memory_order_seq_cst operations. +

          Discussion:

          + +

          +The Working Draft (N2798) allows access to the elements of +std::array by its data() member function: +

          + +
          + +
          23.2.1.4 array::data [array.data]
          +
           T *data();
          + const T *data() const;
          +
          +
          1. + Returns: elems. +
          +
          + +

          +Unfortunately, the result of std::array::data() cannot be bound +to a reference to a built-in array of the type of array::elems. +And std::array provides no other way to get a reference to +array::elems. +This hampers the use of std::array, for example when trying to +pass its data to a C style API function: +

          + +
           // Some C style API function. 
          + void set_path( char (*)[MAX_PATH] );
          +
          + std::array<char,MAX_PATH> path;
          + set_path( path.data() );  // error
          + set_path( &(path.data()) );  // error
          +
          + +

          +Another example, trying to pass the array data to an instance of another +C++ class: +

          + +
           // Represents a 3-D point in space.
          + class three_d_point {
          + public:
          +   explicit three_d_point(const double (&)[3]); 
          + };
          +
          + const std::array<double,3> coordinates = { 0, 1, 2 };
          + three_d_point point1( coordinates.data() );  // error.
          + three_d_point point2( *(coordinates.data()) );  // error.
          +
          + +

          +A user might be tempted to use std::array::elems instead, but +doing so isn't recommended, because std::array::elems is "for +exposition only". Note that Boost.Array users might already use +boost::array::elems, as its documentation doesn't explicitly +state that boost::array::elems is for exposition only: +http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/doc/html/boost/array.html +

          +

          +I can think of three options to solve this issue: +

          +
          1. +Remove the words "exposition only" from the definition of +std::array::elems, as well as the note saying that "elems is +shown for exposition only." +
          2. +Change the signature of std::array::data(), so that it would +return a reference to the built-in array, instead of a pointer to its +first element. +
          3. +Add extra member functions, returning a reference to the built-in array. +
          +

          +Lawrence Crowl wrote me that it might be better to leave +std::array::elems "for exposition only", to allow alternate +representations to allocate the array data dynamically. This might be +of interest to the embedded community, having to deal with very limited +stack sizes. +

          +

          +The second option, changing the return type of +std::array::data(), would break backward compatible to current +Boost and TR1 implementations, as well as to the other contiguous +container (vector and string) in a very subtle way. +For example, the following call to std::swap currently swap two +locally declared pointers (data1, data2), for any container +type T that has a data() member function. When +std::array::data() is changed to return a reference, the +std::swap call may swap the container elements instead. +

          + +
           template <typename T>
          + void func(T& container1, T& container2)
          + {
          +   // Are data1 and data2 pointers or references?
          +   auto data1 = container1.data();
          +   auto data2 = container2.data();
          +
          +   // Will this swap two local pointers, or all container elements?
          +   std::swap(data1, data2);
          + }
          +
          + +

          +The following concept is currently satisfied by all contiguous +containers, but it no longer is for std::array, when +array::data() +is changed to return a reference (tested on ConceptGCC Alpha 7): +

          + +
           auto concept ContiguousContainerConcept<typename T>
          + {
          +   typename value_type = typename T::value_type;
          +   const value_type * T::data() const;
          + }
          +
          + +

          +Still it's worth considering having std::array::data() return a +reference, because it might be the most intuitive option, from a user's +point of view. Nicolai Josuttis (who wrote boost::array) +mailed me that he very much prefers this option. +

          +

          +Note that for this option, the definition of data() would also +need to be revised for zero-sized arrays, as its return type cannot be a +reference to a zero-sized built-in array. Regarding zero-sized array, +data() could throw an exception. Or there could be a partial +specialization of std::array where data() returns +T* or gets removed. +

          +

          +Personally I prefer the third option, adding a new member function to +std::array, overloaded for const and non-const access, +returning a reference to the built-in array, to avoid those compatible +issues. I'd propose naming the function std::array::c_array(), +which sounds intuitive to me. Note that boost::array already +has a c_array() member, returning a pointer, but Nicolai told +me that this one is only there for historical reasons. (Otherwise a name +like std::array::native_array() or +std::array::builtin_array() would also be fine with me.) +According to my proposed resolution, a zero-sized std::array does not need +to have c_array(), while it is still required to have +data() functions. +

          +explict operator const T(&)[N] () const & { return elems; }

          + +

          +This seems legal but odd. Jason Merrill says currently a CWG issue 613 +on the non-static data member that fixes the error that current G++ +gives for the non-explicit, non-conceptualized version of this. Verdict +from human compiler: seems legal. +

          +

          +Some grumbling about zero-sized arrays being allowed and supported. +

          +

          +Walter: Would this address the issue? Are we inclined to go this route? +

          +

          +Alan: What would usage look like? +

          +
          // 3-d point in space
          +struct three_d_point
          +{
          +  explicit three_d_point(const double (&)[3]);
          +};
          +
          +void sink(double*);
          +
          +const std::array<double, 3> coordinates = { 0, 1, 2 };
          +three_d_point point1( coordinates.data() ); //error
          +three_d_point point2( *(coordinates.data()) ); // error

          +
          +sink(cooridinates); // error, no conversion
          +
          + +

          +Recommended Open with new wording. Take the required clause and add the +explicit conversion operators, not have a typedef. At issue still is use +decltype or use T[N]. In favour of using T[N], even though use of +decltype is specially clever. +

          935. clock error handling needs to be specified

          Discussion:

          +

          +Each of the three clocks specified in Clocks 20.9.5 [time.clock] +provides the member function: +

          + +
          static time_point now();
          +
          + +

          +The semantics specified by Clock requirements 20.9.1 [time.clock.req] +make no mention of error handling. Thus the function may throw bad_alloc +or an implementation-defined exception (17.6.4.11 [res.on.exception.handling] +paragraph 4). +

          + +

          +Some implementations of these functions on POSIX, Windows, and +presumably on other operating systems, may fail in ways only detectable +at runtime. Some failures on Windows are due to supporting chipset +errata and can even occur after successful calls to a clock's now() +function. +

          + +

          +These functions are used in cases where exceptions are not appropriate +or where the specifics of the exception or cause of error need to be +available to the user. See +N2828, +Library Support for hybrid error +handling (Rev 1), for more specific discussion of use cases. Thus some change in +the interface of now is required. +

          + +

          +The proposed resolution has been implemented in the Boost version of the +chrono library. No problems were encountered. +

          Discussion:

          + + + +

          +30.4.1 [thread.mutex.requirements] describes the requirements for a type to be +a "Mutex type". A Mutex type can be used as the template argument for +the Lock type that's passed to condition_variable_any::wait (although +Lock seems like the wrong name here, since Lock is given a different +formal meaning in 30.4.3 [thread.lock]) and, although the WD doesn't quite say +so, as the template argument for lock_guard and unique_lock. +

          + +

          +The requirements for a Mutex type include: +

          + +
            +
          • +m.lock() shall be well-formed and have [described] semantics, including a return type of void. +
          • +
          • +m.try_lock() shall be well-formed and have [described] semantics, including a return type of bool. +
          • +
          • +m.unlock() shall be well-formed and have [described] semantics, including a return type of void. +
          • +
          + +

          +Also, a Mutex type "shall not be copyable nor movable". +

          + +

          +The latter requirement seems completely irrelevant, and the three +requirements on return types are tighter than they need to be. For +example, there's no reason that lock_guard can't be instantiated with a +type that's copyable. The rule is, in fact, that lock_guard, etc. won't +try to copy objects of that type. That's a constraint on locks, not on +mutexes. Similarly, the requirements for void return types are +unnecessary; the rule is, in fact, that lock_guard, etc. won't use any +returned value. And with the return type of bool, the requirement should +be that the return type is convertible to bool. +

          + +

          +
            +
          • +The intention is not only to place a constraint on what types such as +lock_guard may do with mutex types, but on what any code, including user +code, may do with mutex types. Thus the constraints as they are apply to +the mutex types themselves, not the current users of mutex types in the +standard. +
          • +
          • +This is a low priority issue; the wording as it is may be overly +restrictive but this may not be a real issue. +

          +

          +Section 30.4.1 [thread.mutex.requirements] conflates the +requirements on a generic Mutex type (including user-supplied mutexes) +with the requirements placed on the standard-supplied mutex types in an +attempt to group everything together and save space. +

          +

          +When applying concepts to chapter 30, I suggest that the concepts +Lockable and TimedLockable embody the requirements for +*use* of a mutex type as required by +unique_lock/lock_guard/condition_variable_any. These should be +relaxed as Pete describes in the issue. The existing words in 30.4.1 [thread.mutex.requirements] are requirements on all of +std::mutex, std::timed_mutex, +std::recursive_mutex and std::recursive_timed_mutex, +and should be rephrased as such. +

          +}
          +
          + +

          +__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. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +20.9.1 [time.clock.req] requires that a clock type have a member +typedef named time_point that names an instantiation of the +template time_point, and a member named duration that +names an instantiation of the template duration. This mixing of +levels is confusing. The typedef names should be different from the +template names. +

          + +

          [ +Post Summit, Anthony provided proposed wording. +]

          + + +

          [ +2009-05-04 Howard adds: +]

          + + +
          +

          +The reason that the typedef names were given the same name as the class templates +was so that clients would not have to stop and think about whether they were +using the clock's native time_point / duration or the class +template directly. In this case, one person's confusion is another person's +encapsulation. The detail that sometimes one is referring to the clock's +native types, and sometimes one is referring to an independent type is +purposefully "hidden" because it is supposed to be an unimportant +detail. It can be confusing to have to remember when to type duration +and when to type duration_type, and there is no need to require the +client to remember something like that. +

          + +

          +For example, here is code that I once wrote in testing out the usability of +this facility: +

          + +
          template <class Clock, class Duration>
          +void do_until(const std::chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& t)
          +{
          +    typename Clock::time_point now = Clock::now();
          +    if (t > now)
          +    {
          +        typedef typename std::common_type
          +        <
          +            Duration,
          +            typename std::chrono::system_clock::duration
          +        >::type CD;
          +        typedef std::chrono::duration<double, std::nano> ID;
          +
          +        CD d = t - now;
          +        ID us = duration_cast<ID>(d);
          +        if (us < d)
          +            ++us;
          +        ...
          +    }
          +}
          +
          + +

          +I see no rationale to require the client to append _type to some +of those declarations. It seems overly burdensome on the author of do_until: +

          + +
          template <class Clock, class Duration>
          +void do_until(const std::chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& t)
          +{
          +    typename Clock::time_point_type now = Clock::now();
          +    if (t > now)
          +    {
          +        typedef typename std::common_type
          +        <
          +            Duration,
          +            typename std::chrono::system_clock::duration_type
          +        >::type CD;
          +        typedef std::chrono::duration<double, std::nano> ID;
          +
          +        CD d = t - now;
          +        ID us = duration_cast<ID>(d);
          +        if (us < d)
          +            ++us;
          +        ...
          +    }
          +}
          +
          + +

          +Additionally I'm fairly certain that this suggestion hasn't been implemented. +If it had, it would have been discovered that it is incomplete. time_point +also has a nested type (purposefully) named duration. +

          +
          +That is, the current proposed wording would put the WP into an inconsistent state. +
          +

          +In contrast, +the current WP has been implemented and I've received very favorable feedback +from people using this interface in real-world code. +

          + +
          + +

          [ +Batavia (2009-05): +]

          +

          +Bill agrees that distinct names should be used for distinct kinds of entities. +

          +

          +Walter would prefer not to suffix type names, +especially for such well-understood terms as "duration". +

          +

          + + +
          +

          +Not meaning to be argumentative, but we have a decade of positive experience +with the precedent of using the same name for the nested type as an external +class representing an identical concept. +

          + +
          template<class Category, class T, class Distance = ptrdiff_t,
          +         class Pointer = T*, class Reference = T&>
          +struct iterator
          +{
          +    ...
          +};
          +
          +template <BidirectionalIterator Iter>
          +class reverse_iterator
          +{
          +    ...
          +};
          +
          +template <ValueType T, Allocator Alloc = allocator<T> >
          +    requires NothrowDestructible<T>
          +class list
          +{
          +public:
          +    typedef implementation-defined     iterator;
          +    ...
          +    typedef reverse_iterator<iterator> reverse_iterator;
          +    ...
          +};
          +
          + +

          +I am aware of zero complaints regarding the use of iterator +and reverse_iterator as nested types of the containers despite these +names also having related meaning at namespace std scope. +

          + +

          +Would we really be doing programmers a favor by renaming these nested types? +

          + +
          template <ValueType T, Allocator Alloc = allocator<T> >
          +    requires NothrowDestructible<T>
          +class list
          +{
          +public:

          +    ...
          +};
          +
          + +

          Discussion:

          +

          +30.5.1 [thread.condition.condvar]: the specification for wait_for +with no predicate has an effects clause that says it calls wait_until, +and a returns clause that sets out in words how to determine the return +value.

          Discussion:

          +

          +The new concepts for the insert iterators mandate an extra copy when +inserting an lvalue: +

          + +
          requires CopyConstructible<Cont::value_type>
          +  back_insert_iterator<Cont>& 
          +  operator=(const Cont::value_type& value);
          +
          +
          +-1- Effects: push_back(*container, Cont::value_type(value)); +
          +
          + +

          +The reason is to convert value into an rvalue because the current +BackInsertionContainer concept only handles push_back-ing +rvalues: +

          + +
          concept BackInsertionContainer<typename C> : Container<C> { 
          +  void push_back(C&, value_type&&); 
          +}
          +
          + +

          +Without the conversion of value to an rvalue, the assignment operator +fails to concept check. +

          + +

          +A solution is to modify the BackInsertionContainer concept so that +the client can pass in the parameter type for push_back similar to +what is already done for the OutputIterator concept: +

          + +
          concept BackInsertionContainer<typename C, typename Value = C::value_type&&>
          +  : Container<C> { 
          +     void push_back(C&, Value); 
          +}
          +
          + +

          +This allows the assignment operator to be adjusted appropriately: +

          + +
          requires BackInsertionContainer<Cont, Cont::value_type const&> &&
          +         CopyConstructible<Cont::value_type>
          +  back_insert_iterator<Cont>& 
          +  operator=(const Cont::value_type& value);
          +
          +
          +-1- Effects: push_back(*container, value); +
          +
          + +

          [ +We may want to propagate this fix to other concepts such as StackLikeContainer. +]

          + +

          +The post-increment operator is dangerous for a general InputIterator. +The multi-pass guarantees that make it meaningful are defined as part of +the ForwardIterator refinement. Any change will affect only constrained +templates that have not yet been written, so should not break existing +user iterators which remain free to add these operations. This change +will also affect the generalised OutputIterator, although there is no +percieved need for the post-increment operator in this case either. +

          + +

          [ +2009-07-28 Alisdair adds: +]

          + + +
          +We still think the issue is relevant, but needs totally rewording in +non-concept language. We would like to see the issue retained as Open, +rather than deferred as NAD Concepts. Review status is no longer +appropriate. +

          +The implementation of such a member is non-trivial (and maybe +impossible), because it would need to account for the deleter. +

          [ +2009-07-26 Howard sets to Tentatively NAD Future. +]

          + + +
          +

          +I took an online poll and got 3 votes for NAD and 3 for NAD Future. Personally +I prefer NAD Future as this does refer to an extension that could conceivably be +considered beyond C++0X. +

          + +

          +However such an extension would need to solve a couple of problems: +

          + +
            +
          1. What is the interface for such a conversion when the shared_ptr does +not have unique ownership? Throw an exception? Create a null unique_ptr? +Undefined behavior? +
          2. + +
          3. +

            +How does one handle custom deleters given to the shared_ptr constructor? +

            +

            +I do not believe it is possible to implement a general answer to this question. +The shared_ptr deleter is a run time (or construction time) characteristic. +The unique_ptr deleter is a compile time characteristic. In general one +can not know to what type of unqiue_ptr you are converting to. +

            +

            +One answer is for the user of the conversion to specify the deleter type and perhaps +throw an exception if the specification turns out to be incorrect. +

            +

            +Another answer is for the conversion to only be valid when the underlying deleter +is default_delete. We would probalby need to specify that this is indeed the +underlying deleter of a shared_ptr when a custom deleter is not given in +the constructor. +

            +
          4. +
          + +

          +At any rate, there are non-trivial design issues which would need to be implemented +and tested in the field for usability prior to standardization. +

          +The validity of the expression &a[n] == &a[0] + n is contingent on +operator& doing the "right thing" (as captured by the CopyConstructible +requirements in table 30 in C++2003).

          +

          +The ContiguousStorageContainer concept describes a container whose elements +are allocated in a single region of memory, and are stored sequentially +without intervening padding other than to meet alignment requirements. +For example, the elements may be stored in a +single array of suitable length. +

          + +
          +A vector is a sequence container that supports random access +iterators. In addition, it supports (amortized) constant time insert and +erase operations at the end; insert and erase in the middle take linear +time. Storage management is handled automatically, though hints can be +given to improve efficiency. The elements of a vector are stored +contiguously, meaning that if v is a +vector<T, Alloc> (where T is some +type other than bool), then it obeys the +identity &v[n] == &v[0] + n for all 0 <= n < +v.size() satisfies the concept ContiguousStorageContainer< +vector< T, Alloc>>. +
          + +

          +Add at the end of the synopsis in 23.3.6 [vector] p2: +

          +future, promise and packaged_task provide a +framework for creating future values, but a simple function to tie all +three components together is missing. Note that we only need a *simple* +facility for C++0x. Advanced thread pools are to be left for TR2. +

          +Simple Proposal: +

          template< typename F, typename ... Args >
          +  requires Callable< F, Args... >
          +    future< Callable::result_type > async( F&& f, Args && ... ); 
          +
          + +

          +Semantics are similar to creating a thread object with a packaged_task +invoking f with forward<Args>(args...) +but details are left unspecified to allow different scheduling and thread +spawning implementations. +

          +

          +It is unspecified whether a task submitted to async is run on its own thread +or a thread previously used for another async task. If a call to async +succeeds, it shall be safe to wait for it from any thread. +

          +

          +The state of thread_local variables shall be preserved during async calls. +

          +

          +No two incomplete async tasks shall see the same value of +this_thread::get_id(). +

          +

          +[Note: this effectively forces new tasks to be run on a new thread, or a +fixed-size pool with no queue. If the +library is unable to spawn a new thread or there are no free worker threads +then the async call should fail. --end note] +

It was agreed that the callable must be run on a +separate thread from the caller, but not necessarily a brand-new thread. +The proposal might or might not allow for an implementation that uses +fixed-size or unlimited thread pools. +

          +

          +Bjarne in c++std-lib-23121: I think that what we agreed was that to +avoid deadlock async() would almost certainly be specified to launch in +a different thread from the thread that executed async(), but I don't +think it was a specific design constraint. +

          +std::unique_future is MoveConstructible, so you can transfer the +association with an asynchronous result from one instance to another. +However, there is no way to determine whether or not an instance has +been moved from, and therefore whether or not it is safe to wait for it. +

          + +
          std::promise<int> p;
          +std::unique_future<int> uf(p.get_future());
          +std::unique_future<int> uf2(std::move(uf));
          +uf.wait(); // oops, uf has no result to wait for. 
          +
          + +

          +Suggest we add a waitable() function to unique_future +(and shared_future) akin to std::thread::joinable(), +which returns true if there is an associated result to wait for +(whether or not it is ready). +

          + +

          +Then we can say: +

          + +
          if(uf.waitable()) uf.wait();

          + +
          template <class R>
          +class future
          +{
          +public:

          +
          +    template <class R1, class F1> friend class prommise;
          +public:
          +    future();
          +    ~future();
          +
          +    future(future&& f);
          +    future& operator=(future&& f);
          +
          +    void swap(future&& f);

          +promise::get_future() must not invalidate the state of the promise object. +

          +

          +A promise is used like this: +

          promise<int> p;

          +// use 'f' to retrieve the value.

          +

          +So get_future() must return an object that shares the same associated +state with *this. +

          + +

          +In fact with the existence of default template arguments for function +templates it is not too hard to implement this like as follows, which +shows that we can indeed simulate to some sense constrained +member functions in C++0x. +

          +This is a placeholder issue to track the fact that we (well I) put the standard +into an inconsistent state by requesting that we accept +N2844 +except for the proposed changes to [forward]. +

          + +

          +

          +My current preferred solution is: +

          + +
          template <class T>
          +struct __base_type
          +{
          +   typedef typename remove_cv<typename remove_reference<T>::type>::type type;
          +};
          +

          +   class = typename enable_if<
          +       !is_lvalue_reference<T>::value ||
          +        is_lvalue_reference<T>::value &&
          +        is_lvalue_reference<U>::value>::type,
          +   class = typename enable_if<
          +        is_same<typename __base_type<T>::type,
          +                typename __base_type<U>::type>::value>::type>
          +inline
          +T&&
          +forward(U&& t)
          +{
          +   return static_cast<T&&>(t);
          +}
          +
          + +

          +This has been tested by Bill, Jason and myself. +

          + +

          +It allows the following lvalue/rvalue casts: +

          + +
            +
          1. +Cast an lvalue t to an lvalue T (identity). +
          2. +
          3. +Cast an lvalue t to an rvalue T. +
          4. +
          5. +Cast an rvalue t to an rvalue T (identity). +
          6. +
          + +

          +It disallows: +

          + +
            +
          1. +Cast an rvalue t to an lvalue T. +
          2. +
          3. +Cast one type t to another type T (such as int to double). +
          4. +
          + +

          +"a." is disallowed as it can easily lead to dangling references. +"b." is disallowed as this function is meant to only change the lvalue/rvalue +characteristic of an expression. +

          + +

          +Jason has expressed concern that "b." is not dangerous and is useful in contexts +where you want to "forward" a derived type as a base type. I find this use case +neither dangerous, nor compelling. I.e. I could live with or without the "b." +constraint. Without it, forward would look like: +

          + +
          template <class T, class U,
          +   class = typename enable_if<
          +       !is_lvalue_reference<T>::value ||
          +        is_lvalue_reference<T>::value &&
          +        is_lvalue_reference<U>::value>::type>
          +inline
          +T&&
          +forward(U&& t)
          +{
          +   return static_cast<T&&>(t);
          +}
          +
          + +

          +Or possibly: +

          + +
          template <class T, class U,
          +   class = typename enable_if<
          +       !is_lvalue_reference<T>::value ||
          +        is_lvalue_reference<T>::value &&
          +        is_lvalue_reference<U>::value>::type,
          +   class = typename enable_if<
          +        is_base_of<typename __base_type<U>::type,
          +                   typename __base_type<T>::type>::value>::type>
          +inline
          +T&&
          +forward(U&& t)
          +{
          +   return static_cast<T&&>(t);
          +}
          +
          + + +

          + + +
          +

          +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: +

          + +
          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. +

          + +
            +
          1. +

            +Use a simple definition of forward that accomplishes its original +purpose without complications to accomodate other uses: +

            + +
            template <class T, class U>
            +T&& forward(U& x)
            +{
            +    return static_cast<T&&>(x);
            +}
            +
            +
          2. + +
          3. +

            +Use a definition of forward that protects the user from as many +potential mistakes as possible, by actively preventing all other +uses: +

            + +
            template <class T, class U>
            +boost::enable_if_c<
            +    // in forward<T>(x), x is a parameter of the caller, thus an lvalue
            +    is_lvalue_reference<U>::value
            +    // in caller's deduced T&& argument, T can only be non-ref or lvalue ref
            +    && !is_rvalue_reference<T>::value
            +    // Must not cast cv-qualifications or do any type conversions
            +    && is_same<T&,U&>::value
            +    , T&&>::type forward(U&& a)
            +{
            +    return static_cast<T&&>(a);

          +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. +

          +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. +

          +Just to confirm that the BSI originator of this comment assumed it did +indeed imply a compiler intrinsic. Rather than request a Core extension, it +seemed in keeping with that the type traits interface provides a library API +to unspecified compiler features - where we require several other traits +(e.g. has_trivial_*) to get the 'right' answer now, unlike in TR1. +

          Discussion:

          +

          Addresses US 65 and US 74.1

          + +

          US 65:

          + +
          +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:

          + +

          +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. +

          +

          +Components that I propose eliminating include HasAllocatorType, +is_scoped_allocator, allocator_propagation_map, scoped_allocator_adaptor, +and ConstructibleAsElement. +

          +
          + +

          US 74.1:

          + +
          +

          +Scoped allocators represent a poor trade-off for standardization, since +(1) scoped-allocator--aware containers can be implemented outside the +C++ standard library but used with its algorithms, (2) scoped +allocators only benefit a tiny proportion of the C++ community +(since few C++ programmers even use today's allocators), and (3) all C++ +users, especially the vast majority of the C++ community that won't ever +use scoped allocators are forced to cope with the interface complexity +introduced by scoped allocators. +

          +

          +In essence, the larger community will suffer to support a very small +subset of the community who can already implement their own +data structures outside of the standard library. Therefore, scoped +allocators should be removed from the working paper. +

          +

          +Some evidence of the complexity introduced by scoped allocators: +

          +
          +

          +20.3.4 [pairs], 20.5 [tuple]: Large increase in the +number of pair and tuple constructors. +

          +

          +23 [containers]: Confusing "AllocatableElement" requirements throughout. +

          +
          +

          Suggested resolution:

          + +

          +Remove support for scoped allocators from the working paper. This +includes at least the following changes: +

          + +
          +

          +Remove X [allocator.element.concepts] +

          +

          +Remove 20.8.9 [allocator.adaptor] +

          +

          +Remove 20.8.12 [construct.element] +

          +

          +In Clause 23 [containers]: replace requirements naming the +AllocatableElement concept with requirements naming CopyConstructible, +MoveConstructible, DefaultConstructible, or Constructible, as +appropriate. +

          +
          + +
          + +

          [ +Post Summit Alan moved from NAD to Open. +]

          + + +

          [ +2009-05-15 Ganesh adds: +]

          + + +
          +

          +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
          +
          + +

          +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>
          +{ }
          +
          + +

          +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: +

          + +
          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. +

          +

          +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>>;
          +
          +vector<shared_ptr<int>, scoped_allocator<shared_ptr<int>>> v;
          +v.emplace_back(new int); // ops! doesn't compile
          +
          + +

          +doesn't compile, as the member function construct() of the scoped +allocator requires non-explicit constructors through concept +ConstructibleWithAllocator. Fixing that is not difficult but probably +more work than it's worth and is therefore, IMHO, one more reason in +support of the complete removal of scoped allocators. +

          +
          + +

          [ +2009-06-09 Alan adds: +]

          + + +
          +

          +I reopened this issue because I did not think that these National Body +comments were adequately addressed by marking them NAD. My understanding +is that something can be marked NAD if it is clearly a misunderstanding +or trivial, but a substantive issue that has any technical merit +requires a disposition that addresses the concerns. +

          +

          +The notes in the NB comment list (US 65 & US 74.1) say that: +

          +
            +
          1. +this issue has not introduced any new arguments not previously discussed, +
          2. +
          3. +the vote (4-9-3) was not a consensus for removing scoped allocators, +
          4. +
          5. +the issue is resolved by +N2840. +
          6. +
          +

          +My opinion is: +

          +
            +
          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), +
          2. +
          3. +the vote was clearly not a consensus for removal, but just saying there +was a vote does not provide a rationale, +
          4. +
          5. +I do not believe that N2840 addresses these comments (although it does +many other things and was voted in with strong approval). +
          6. +
          + +

          +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. If in +fact there is controversy, my thought is that it is better to know now +rather than later so there is more time to deal with it. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +I have the impression that even the wording of current draft +N2857 +does insufficiently express the intent of vector's +reallocation strategy. This has produced not too old library +implementations which release memory in the clear() function +and even modern articles about C++ programming cultivate +the belief that clear is allowed to do exactly this. A typical +example is something like this: +

          + +
          const int buf_size = ...;
          +std::vector<T> buf(buf_size);
          +for (int i = 0; i < some_condition; ++i) {
          +  buf.resize(buf_size);
          +  write_or_read_data(buf.data());
          +  buf.clear(); // Ensure that the next round get's 'zeroed' elements
          +}
          +
          +

          +where still the myth is ubiquitous that buf might be +allowed to reallocate it's memory *inside* the for loop. +

          +

          +IMO the problem is due to the fact, that +

          + +
            +
          1. +the actual memory-reallocation stability of std::vector +is explained in 23.3.6.2 [vector.capacity]/3 and /6 which +are describing just the effects of the reserve +function, but in many examples (like above) there +is no explicit call to reserve involved. Further-more +23.3.6.2 [vector.capacity]/6 does only mention insertions +and never mentions the consequences of erasing +elements. +
          2. +
          3. +

            +the effects clause of std::vector's erase overloads in +23.3.6.4 [vector.modifiers]/4 is silent about capacity changes. This +easily causes a misunderstanding, because the counter +parting insert functions described in 23.3.6.4 [vector.modifiers]/2 +explicitly say, that +

            +
            +Causes reallocation if the new size is greater than the +old capacity. If no reallocation happens, all the iterators +and references before the insertion point remain valid. +
            +

            +It requires a complex argumentation chain about four +different places in the standard to provide the - possibly +weak - proof that calling clear() also does never change +the capacity of the std::vector container. Since std::vector +is the de-facto replacement of C99's dynamic arrays this +type is near to a built-in type and it's specification should +be clear enough that usual programmers can trust their +own reading. +

          +An alternative would be to pass all constructor arguments by value, where it +is known that *all* elements are literal types.

          +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. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +Sometimes it is necessary to remove all qualifiers from a type before +passing on to a further API. A good example would be calling the +tuple query APIs tuple_size or tuple_element +with a deduced type inside a function template. If the deduced type is +cv-qualified or a reference then the call will fail. The solution is to +chain calls to +remove_cv<remove_reference<T>::type>::type, and +note that the order matters. +

          +

          +Suggest it would be helpful to add a new type trait, +remove_all, that removes all top-level qualifiers from a type +i.e. cv-qualification and any references. Define the term in such a way +that if additional qualifiers are added to the language, then +remove_all is defined as stripping those as well. +

          + + +
          +remove_all seems too generic, a possible alternative matching +the current naming style could be remove_cv_reference or +remove_reference_cv. It should also be considered whether this +trait should also remove 'extents', or pointer 'decorations'. Especially +if the latter situations are considered as well, it might be easier to +chose the name not in terms of what it removes (which might be +a lot), but in terms of it creates. In this case I could think +of e.g. extract_value_type. +

          +

          +istream_iterator and istreambuf_iterator should support literal sentinel +values. The default constructor is frequently used to terminate ranges, and +could easily be a literal value for istreambuf_iterator, and +istream_iterator when iterating value types. A little more work using a +suitably sized/aligned char-array for storage (or an updated component like +boost::optional proposed for TR2) would allow istream_iterator to support +constexpr default constructor in all cases, although we might leave this +tweak as a QoI issue. Note that requiring constexpr be supported also +allows us to place no-throw guarantees on this constructor too. +

          + +

          [ +2009-06-02 Daniel adds: +]

          + + +
          +

          +I agree with the usefulness of the issue suggestion, but we need +to ensure that istream_iterator can satisfy be literal if needed. +Currently this is not clear, because 24.6.1 [istream.iterator]/3 declares +a copy constructor and a destructor and explains their semantic in +24.6.1.1 [istream.iterator.cons]/3+4. +

          +

          +The prototype semantic specification is ok (although it seems +somewhat redundant to me, because the semantic doesn't say +anything interesting in both cases), but for support of trivial class +types we also need a trivial copy constructor and destructor as of +9 [class]/6. The current non-informative specification of these +two special members suggests to remove their explicit declaration +in the class and add explicit wording that says that if T is +trivial a default constructed iterator is also literal, alternatively it +would be possible to mark both as defaulted and add explicit +(memberwise) wording that guarantees that they are trivial. +

          +

          +Btw.: I'm quite sure that the istreambuf_iterator additions to +ensure triviality are not sufficient as suggested, because the +library does not yet give general guarantees that a defaulted +special member declaration makes this member also trivial. +Note that e.g. the atomic types do give a general statement! +

          +

          +Finally there is a wording issue: There does not exist something +like a "literal constructor". The core language uses the term +"constexpr constructor" for this. +

            +
          • + In the List A above (of the nested exception handling), it is hard to + find out an active reason to use the nested exception handling at this + scene. Rather, we can take a simpler description by throwing the entire + exception_list directly to the top level. +
          • +
          • + The code in the same example gives us a kind of redundant impression, + which might have come from the fact that the try-throw-catch framework does + not assume a tree structured exception handling. +
          • +
          + +

          +According to the above observation, we cannot help concluding that it is not +so easy to use the nested_exception handling as a tree structured exception +handling mechanism in a practical sense. +

          +The "lockfree" facilities do not tell the programmer enough. +

          + +

          +There are 2 problems here. +First, at least on x86, +it's less important to me whether some integral types are lock free +than what is the largest type I can pass to atomic and have it be lock-free. +For example, if long longs are not lock-free, +ATOMIC_INTEGRAL_LOCK_FREE is probably 1, +but I'd still be interested in knowing whether longs are always lock-free. +Or if long longs at any address are lock-free, +I'd expect ATOMIC_INTEGRAL_LOCK_FREE to be 2, +but I may actually care whether I have access to +the cmpxchg16b instruction. +None of the support here helps with that question. +(There are really 2 related questions here: +what alignment requirements are there for lock-free access; +and what processor is the program actually running on, +as opposed to what it was compiled for?) +

          + +

          +Second, having atomic_is_lock_free only apply to individual objects +is pretty useless +(except, as Lawrence Crowl points out, +for throwing an exception when an object is unexpectedly not lock-free). +I'm likely to want to use its result to decide what algorithm to use, +and that algorithm is probably going to allocate new memory +containing atomic objects and then try to act on them. +If I can't predict the lock-freedom of the new object +by checking the lock-freedom of an existing object, +I may discover after starting the algorithm that I can't continue. +

          + +

          [ +2009-06-16 Jeffrey Yasskin adds: +]

          + + +
          +

          +To solve the first problem, I think 2 macros would help: +MAX_POSSIBLE_LOCK_FREE_SIZE and MAX_GUARANTEED_LOCK_FREE_SIZE, +which expand to the maximum value of sizeof(T) for which atomic may +(or will, respectively) use lock-free operations. +Lawrence points out that this +"relies heavily on implementations +using word-size compare-swap on sub-word-size types, +which in turn requires address modulation." +He expects that to be the end state anyway, so it doesn't bother him much. +

          + +

          +To solve the second, +I think one could specify that equally aligned objects of the same type +will return the same value from atomic_is_lock_free(). +I don't know how to specify "equal alignment". +Lawrence suggests an additional function, atomic_is_always_lock_free(). +

          +In the evolution discussion of N2925, "More Collected Issues with +Atomics," there is an action item with respect to +LWG 1146, US 88 +

          +

          +Relatedly, Mike Sperts will create an issue to propose adding a traits +mechanism to check the compile-time properties through a template +mechanism rather than macros +

          + +

          +Here is my attempt to do this. I don't believe that a separate trait is +necessary for this, and that instead atomic_integral::is_lock_free can +be re-purposed with minimal work as follows. +

          +

          +Just a thought... wouldn't it be better to use a scoped enum instead of +plain integers? For example: +

          + +
          enum class is_lock_free
          +{

          +
          + +

          +if compatibility with C is deemed important, we could use an unscoped +enum with suitably chosen names. It would still be more descriptive +than 0, 1 and 2. +

          Addresses US 90

          + +

          +The C++0X draft +declares all of the functions dealing with atomics (section 29.6 [atomics.types.operations]) +to take volatile arguments. +Yet it also says (29.4-3), +

          + +
          +

          +[ Note: Many operations are volatile-qualified. +The "volatile as device register" semantics have not changed in the standard. +This qualification means that volatility is preserved +when applying these operations to volatile objects. +It does not mean that operations on non-volatile objects become volatile. +Thus, volatile qualified operations on non-volatile objects +may be merged under some conditions. —end note ] +

          +
          + +

          +I was thinking about how to implement this in gcc, +and I believe that we'll want to overload most of the functions +on volatile and non-volatile. +Here's why: +

          + +

          +To let the compiler take advantage of the permission +to merge non-volatile atomic operations and reorder atomics in certain, +we'll need to tell the compiler backend +about exactly which atomic operation was used. +So I expect most of the functions of the form atomic_<op>_explicit() +(e.g. atomic_load_explicit, atomic_exchange_explicit, +atomic_fetch_add_explicit, etc.) +to become compiler builtins. +A builtin can tell whether its argument was volatile or not, +so those functions don't really need extra explicit overloads. +However, I don't expect that we'll want to add builtins +for every function in chapter 29, +since most can be implemented in terms of the _explicit free functions: +

          + +
          class atomic_int {
          +  __atomic_int_storage value;
          + public:
          +  int fetch_add(int increment, memory_order order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile {
          +    // &value has type "volatile __atomic_int_storage*".
          +    atomic_fetch_add_explicit(&value, increment, order);
          +  }
          +  ...
          +};
          +
          + +

          +But now this always calls +the volatile builtin version of atomic_fetch_add_explicit(), +even if the atomic_int wasn't declared volatile. +To preserve volatility and the compiler's permission to optimize, +I'd need to write: +

          + +
          class atomic_int {
          +  __atomic_int_storage value;
          + public:
          +  int fetch_add(int increment, memory_order order = memory_order_seq_cst) volatile {
          +    atomic_fetch_add_explicit(&value, increment, order);
          +  }
          +  int fetch_add(int increment, memory_order order = memory_order_seq_cst) {
          +    atomic_fetch_add_explicit(&value, increment, order);
          +  }
          +  ...
          +};
          +
          + +

          +But this is visibly different from the declarations in the standard +because it's now overloaded. +(Consider passing &atomic_int::fetch_add as a template parameter.) +

          + +

          +The implementation may already have permission to add overloads +to the member functions: +

          + +
          +

          +17.6.4.5 [member.functions] An implementation may declare additional non-virtual +member function signatures within a class:
          +... +

          +
            +
          • by adding a member function signature for a member function name.
          • +
          +
          + +

          +but I don't see an equivalent permission to add overloads to the free functions. +

Also, the lack of a + move-assignment operator restricts the use of unique_future + in containers such as std::vector - vector::insert requires + move-assignable for example.

          +

          Suggestion

          +

          Add a default constructor with the + semantics that it creates a unique_future with no + associated asynchronous result. Add a move-assignment + operator which transfers ownership.

          shared_future is currently + CopyConstructible, but not CopyAssignable. This is + inconsistent with shared_ptr, and will surprise users. + Users will then write work-arounds to provide this + behaviour. We should provide it simply and efficiently as + part of shared_future. Note that since the shared_future + member functions for accessing the state are all declared + const, the original usage of an immutable shared_future + value that can be freely copied by multiple threads can be + retained by declaring such an instance as "const + shared_future".

          +

          Suggestion

          +

          Remove "=delete" + from the copy-assignment operator of shared_future. Add a + move-constructor shared_future(shared_future&& + rhs), and a move-assignment operator shared_future& + operator=(shared_future&& rhs). The postcondition + for the copy-assignment operator is that *this has the same + associated state as rhs. The postcondition for the + move-constructor and move assignment is that *this has the + same associated as rhs had before the + constructor/assignment call and that rhs has no associated + state.

          Description

          +

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

          +

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

          Discussion:

          +

          +I believe the two functions +select_on_container_(copy|move)_construction() are over-constrained. For +example, the return value of the "copy" version is (see +X [allocator.concepts.members]/21): +

          +
          +Returns: x if the allocator should propagate from the existing +container to the new container on copy construction, otherwise X(). +
          +

          +Consider the case where a user decides to provide an explicit concept +map for Allocator to adapt some legacy allocator class, as he wishes to +provide customizations that the LegacyAllocator concept map template +does not provide. Now, although it's true that the legacy class is +required to have a default constructor, the user might have reasons to +prefer a different constructor to implement +select_on_container_copy_construction(). However, the current wording +requires the use of the default constructor. +

          +

          +Moreover, it's not said explicitly that x is supposed to be the +allocator of the existing container. A clarification would do no harm. +

          + +
          +-7- Error conditions specify conditions where a function may fail. The +conditions are listed, together with a suitable explanation, as the enum +class errc constants (19.5) that could be used as an argument to +function make_error_condition (19.5.3.6). +
          + +

          +This paragraph should mention make_error_code or the text "that +could be used as an argument to function make_error_condition +(19.5.3.6)" should be deleted. I believe this is editorial. +

          + + +
          +

          +I'm not convinced there's a problem there, because as far as the "Error +conditions" clauses are concerned, make_error_condition() is used by a +user to test for the condition, whereas make_error_code is not. For +example: +

          + +
          void foobar(error_code& ec = throws());
          +
          + +

          + Error conditions: +

          +
          +permission_denied - Insufficient privilege to perform operation. +
          + +

          +When a user writes: +

          + +
          error_code ec;
          +foobar(ec);
          +if (ec == errc::permission_denied)
          +   ...
          +
          + +

          +the implicit conversion errc->error_condition makes the if-test +equivalent to: +

          + +
          if (ec == make_error_condition(errc::permission_denied))
          +
          + +

          +On the other hand, if the user had written: +

          + +
          if (ec == make_error_code(errc::permission_denied))
          +
          + +

          +the test is now checking for a specific error code. The test may +evaluate to false even though foobar() failed due to the documented +error condition "Insufficient privilege". +

          +What the WP says right now is literally true: these codes can be used as +an argument to make_error_condition. (It is also true that they can be +used as an argument to make_error_code, which the WP doesn't say.)

          +

          +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. +20.8.14.1.1 [unique.ptr.dltr.dflt]/2 +

          +
          void operator()(T *ptr) const;
          +
          + +
          +Effects: calls delete on ptr. A diagnostic is required if T is an +incomplete type. +
          +
          + +

          +The problem with this approach is that such a requirement is +insufficient to prevent +undefined behavior, if this situation occurs. According to 1.3.3 [defns.diagnostic] +a diagnostic message is defined as +

          + +
          +a message belonging to an implementation-defined subset of the +implementation's output messages. +
          + +

          +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. +

          + +

          +Move to NAD. +

          +

          It's not clear that there's any important difference between +"ill-formed" and "diagnostic required". From 1.4 [intro.compliance], +1.3.5 [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. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +27.7.2.9 [ostream.rvalue] was created to preserve the ability to insert +into (and extract from 27.7.1.6 [istream.rvalue]) rvalue streams: +

          + +
          template <class charT, class traits, class T>
          +  basic_ostream<charT, traits>&
          +  operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>&& os, const T& x);
          +
          +
          +

          +1 Effects: os << x +

          +

          +2 Returns: os +

          +
          +
          + +

          +This is good as it allows code that wants to (for example) open, write to, and +close an ofstream all in one statement: +

          + +
          std::ofstream("log file") << "Some message\n";
          +
          + +

          +However, I think we can easily make this "rvalue stream helper" even easier to +use. Consider trying to quickly create a formatted string. With the current +spec you have to write: +

          + +
          std::string s = static_cast<std::ostringstream&>(std::ostringstream() << "i = " << i).str();
          +
          + +

          +This will store "i = 10" (for example) in the string s. Note +the need to cast the stream back to ostringstream& prior to using +the member .str(). This is necessary because the inserter has cast +the ostringstream down to a more generic ostream during the +insertion process. +

          + +

          +I believe we can re-specify the rvalue-inserter so that this cast is unnecessary. +Thus our customer now has to only type: +

          + +
          std::string s = (std::ostringstream() << "i = " << i).str();
          +
          + +

          +This is accomplished by having the rvalue stream inserter return an rvalue of +the same type, instead of casting it down to the base class. This is done by +making the stream generic, and constraining it to be an rvalue of a type derived +from ios_base. +

          + +

          +The same argument and solution also applies to the inserter. This code has been +implemented and tested. +

          Discussion:

          +

          +Concerning mathematically proper operation of the type: +

          + +
          complex<complex<T> >
          +
          + +

          +Generally accepted mathematical semantics of such a construct correspond +to quaternions through Cayly-Dickson construct +

          + +
          (w+xi) + (y+zi) j
          +
          + +

          +The proper implementation seems straightforward by adding a few +declarations like those below. I have included operator definition for +combining real scalars and complex types, as well, which seems +appropriate, as algebra of complex numbers allows mixing complex and +real numbers with operators. It also allows for constructs such as +complex<double> i=(0,1), x = 12.34 + 5*i; +

          + +

          +Quaternions are often used in areas such as computer graphics, where, +for example, they avoid the problem of Gimbal lock when rotating objects +in 3D space, and can be more efficient than matrix multiplications, +although I am applying them to a different field. +

          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 (20.6.7 [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. +

          + +

          +Additionally, +

          + +

          +19.5.3.1 [syserr.errcondition.overview]/1 says: +

          + +
           
          +template<typename ErrorConditionEnum>
          +  typename enable_if<is_error_condition_enum<ErrorConditionEnum>, error_code>::type &
          +    operator=( ErrorConditionEnum e );
          +
          + +

          +Which contains several problems (typename versus class +inconsistency, lack of ::value, error_code instead of +error_condition), while 19.5.3.3 [syserr.errcondition.modifiers] says: +

          + +
           
          +template <class ErrorConditionEnum>
          +  typename enable_if<is_error_condition_enum<ErrorConditionEnum>::value>::type&
          +    operator=(ErrorConditionEnum e);
          +
          + +

          +Which returns void&. They should both say: +

          + +
           
          +template <class ErrorConditionEnum>
          +  typename enable_if<is_error_condition_enum<ErrorConditionEnum>::value, error_condition>::type&
          +    operator=(ErrorConditionEnum e);
          +
          + +

          +Or (again, I prefer this form): +

          + +
           
          +template <class ErrorConditionEnum>
          +  typename enable_if<is_error_condition_enum<ErrorConditionEnum>::value, error_condition&>::type
          +    operator=(ErrorConditionEnum e);
          +
          + +

          +Additionally, 19.5.3.3 [syserr.errcondition.modifiers] lacks a +"Returns: *this." paragraph, which is presumably +necessary. +

          Discussion:

          + + + +

          +Since we have removed the entry in B [implimits] for the +library-specific limit for number of arguments passed to +function/tuple/etc. I believe we need to update the +spec for mem_fn to reflect this. +

          + +

          +The "Remarks: Implementations may implement mem_fn as a set of +overloaded function templates." no longer holds, as we cannot create an +arbitrary number of such overloads. I believe we should strike the +remark and add a second signature: +

          + +
          template<class R, class T, typename ... ArgTypes>
          +  unspecified mem_fn(R (T::*pm)(ArgTypes...));
          +
          + +

          +I believe we need two signatures as pointer-to-data-member and +pointer-to-member-function-taking-no-args appear to use subtly different +syntax. +

          1235. Issue with C++0x random number proposal

          +

          Section: 26.5.2.5 [rand.concept.dist] Status: NAD Future + Submitter: Matthias Troyer Opened: 2009-10-12 Last modified: 2009-10-26

          +

          View all issues with NAD Future status.

          +

          Discussion:

          +

          +There exist optimized, vectorized vendor libraries for the creation of +random number generators, such as Intel's MKL [1] and AMD's ACML [2]. In +timing tests we have seen a performance gain of a factor of up to 80 +(eighty) compared to a pure C++ implementation (in Boost.Random) when +using these generator to generate a sequence of normally distributed +random numbers. In codes dominated by the generation of random numbers +(we have application codes where random number generation is more than +50% of the CPU time) this factor 80 is very significant. +

          + +

          +To make use of these vectorized generators, we use a C++ class modeling +the RandomNumberEngine concept and forwarding the generation of random +numbers to those optimized generators. For example: +

          + +
          namespace mkl {
          + class mt19937 {.... };
          +}
          +
          + +

          +For the generation of random variates we also want to dispatch to +optimized vectorized functions in the MKL or ACML libraries. See this +example: +

          + +
          mkl::mt19937 eng;
          +std::normal_distribution<double> dist;
          +
          +double n = dist(eng);
          +
          + +

          +Since the variate generation is done through the operator() of the +distribution there is no customization point to dispatch to Intel's or +AMD's optimized functions to generate normally distributed numbers based +on the mt19937 generator. Hence, the performance gain of 80 cannot be +achieved. +

          + +

          +Contrast this with TR1: +

          + +
          mkl::mt19937 eng;
          +std::tr1::normal_distribution<double> dist;
          +std::tr1::variate_generator<mkl::mt19937,std::tr1::normal_distribution<double> > rng(eng,dist);
          +double n = rng();
          +
          + +

          +This - admittedly much uglier from an aestethic point of view - design +allowed optimization by specializing the variate_generator template for +mkl::mt19937: +

          + +
          namespace std { namespace tr1 {
          +
          +template<>
          +class variate_generator<mkl::mt19937,std::tr1::normal_distribution<double> > { .... };
          +
          +} }
          +
          + +

          +A similar customization point is missing in the C++0x design and +prevents the optimized vectorized version to be used. +

          + +

          +Suggested resolution: +

          + +

          +Add a customization point to the distribution concept. Instead of the +variate_generator template this can be done through a call to a +free function generate_variate found by ADL instead of +operator() of the distribution: +

          + +
          template <RandomNumberDistribution, class RandomNumberEngine>
          +typename RandomNumberDistribution ::result_type
          +generate_variate(RandomNumberDistribution const& dist, RandomNumberEngine& eng);
          +
          + +

          +This function can be overloaded for optimized enginges like +mkl::mt19937. +

          + +

          1236. reserved identifiers in programs not using the library

          Discussion:

          +

          +I wasn't sure whether to consider this a library or a language issue, +because the issue is I think it's incorrectly categorized as being part +of the library, so I thought I'd send a message to both of you and let +you sort it out. +

          + +

          +Most reserved identifiers are treated as unilaterally available to the +implementation, such as to implement language extensions, or provide +macros documenting its functionality. However, the requirements for +reserved identifers are in 17.6.3.3 [reserved.names], which are a +subsection of 17.6.3 [constraints]. 17.6.3.1 [constraints.overview] appears only to apply to "C++ programs +that use the facilities of the C++ standard library", meaning that, in +theory, all implementations are erroneous in having any non-standard +identifiers predefined for programs that do not, at some point, include +a standard library header. +

          + +

          Furthermore, it's unclear whether the use of certain identifiers is +UB +or results in an ill-formed program. In particular, 17.6.3.3.1 +[macro.names] uses a "shall not", where 17.6.3.3.2 [global.names] says +that names are "reserved to the +implementation". 17.6.3.3 [reserved.names] seems only to cover the +instance of a name being described as "reserved", so are +implementations +required to diagnose a program that performs, as an example, "#undef +get"? +

          + +

          [ +2009 Santa Cruz: +]

          + + +
          +Move to NAD. There may in theory be multiple interpretations possible, +but there's no evidence that this causes any genuine problems or +uncertainty about what implementations are allowed to do. We do not +believe this rises to the level of a defect. +

      Discussion:

      +

      Suppose that c and c1 are sequential containers and i is an +iterator that refers to an element of c. Then I can insert a copy of +c1's elements into c ahead of element i by executing

      + +
      + +
      c.insert(i, c1.begin(), c1.end());
      + +
      + +

      If c is a vector, it is fairly easy for me to find out where the +newly inserted elements are, even though i is now invalid:

      + +
      + +
      size_t i_loc = i - c.begin();
      +c.insert(i, c1.begin(), c1.end());
      + +
      + +

      and now the first inserted element is at c.begin()+i_loc and one +past the last is at c.begin()+i_loc+c1.size().
      +
      +But what if c is a list? I can still find the location of one past the +last inserted element, because i is still valid. To find the location +of the first inserted element, though, I must execute something like

      + +
      + +
      for (size_t n = c1.size(); n; --n)
      +   --i;
      + +
      + +

      because i is now no longer a random-access iterator.
      +
      +Alternatively, I might write something like

      + +
      + +
      bool first = i == c.begin();
      +list<T>::iterator j = i;
      +if (!first) --j;
      +c.insert(i, c1.begin(), c1.end());
      +if (first)
      +   j = c.begin();
      +else
      +   ++j;
      + +
      + +

      which, although wretched, requires less overhead.
      +
      +But I think the right solution is to change the definition of insert +so that instead of returning void, it returns an iterator that refers +to the first element inserted, if any, and otherwise is a copy of its +first argument.

    +Problem: +The iterator requirements for partition() and stable_partition() [25.2.12] +are listed as BidirectionalIterator, however, there are efficient algorithms +for these functions that only require ForwardIterator that have been known +since before the standard existed. The SGI implementation includes these (see +http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/partition.html +and +http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/stable_partition.html). +

    +

    +If Iter merely satisfied ForwardIterator at most (last - first) swaps +are done. Exactly (last - first) applications of the predicate are done. +

    +
    + +

    +[Editorial note: I looked for existing precedent in how we might call out +distinct overloads overloads from a set of constrained templates, but there +is not much existing practice to lean on. advance/distance were the only +algorithms I could find, and that wording is no clearer.] +

    template<class ForwardIterator, class Predicate> 
    +ForwardIterator partition(ForwardIterator first,

    +                          Predicate pred);

    +

    Change the complexity from

    + +

    +At most (last - first)/2 swaps are done. Exactly (last - first) +applications of the predicate are done. +

    + +

    to

    + +

    +If ForwardIterator is a bidirectional_iterator, at most (last - first)/2 +swaps are done; otherwise at most (last - first) swaps are done. Exactly +(last - first) applications of the predicate are done. +

    + + + +

    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. +

    + +

    +

    + +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(). + +

    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. + +

    659. istreambuf_iterator should have an 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! +

    +

    +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> {

    +
    + +

    +

    [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++();

    +                    typename traits::off_type, charT* unspecified, charT> {
    +
    + +

    +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. +

    +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. +

    +
    + +

    [ +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);
    +if (lval < numeric_limits<int>::min())
    +{
    +  err |= ios_base::failbit;
    +  val = numeric_limits<int>::min();
    +}
    +else if (lval > numeric_limits<int>::max())
    +{
    +  err |= ios_base::failbit;
    +  val = numeric_limits<int>::max();
    +}
    +else
    +  val = static_cast<int>(lval);
    +setstate(err);
    +
    +
    + +

    +

    +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 ] +

    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 20.8.15.2.5 [util.smartptr.shared.obs]: +

    + +
    +
    T* get() const;

    +

    +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. +

    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. + +
    istream_iterator& operator++(int);
    + +Requires: in_stream != 0.

    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). +

    + +

    [ +San Francisco: +]

    + + +
    +Implementors will study this to confirm that it is actually possible. +

    [ +2009-07 Frankfurt: +]

    + + +
    +Move to Ready. +
    + + + +

    Proposed resolution:

    +

    +Add a blanket statement in 21.4.1 [string.require]: +

    + +
    +

    +- if any member function or operator of basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator> +throws, that function or operator has no effect. +

    +

    +- 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:

      +

      +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();

      + + +
      +

      +There is concern that the enumeration names are just as confusing, if +not more so, as the bool. You might have awoken because of a signal or a +spurious wakeup, for example. +

      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. +

        876. basic_string access operations should give stronger guarantees

        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. +

        + +

        [ +San Francisco: +]

        + + +
        +

        +We oppose part 1 of the issue but hope to address size() in +issue 877. +

        +
        +Pete's broader comment: now that we know that basic_string will be a +block of contiguous memory, we should just rewrite its specification +with that in mind. The expression of the specification will be simpler +and probably more correct as a result. +

        + +

        +Could be clarified to state each "non-trivial" element. Otherwise +we have a conflict with Core deinfition of default initialization - +trivial types do not get initialized (rather than initialization +having no effect) +

        + +

        +I'm going to punt on this one, because it's not an issue that's +related to concepts. I suggest bringing it to Howard's attention on +the reflector. +

        +Text in draft doesn't mean anything, changing to "non-trivial" makes it +meaningful. +

        +We prefer "value initializes". Present implementations use +value-initialization. Users who don't want value initialization have +alternatives. +

      +      explicit ClockTime(const std::chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& d)

      +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. +

      +integral_constant objects should be usable in integral-constant-expressions. +The addition to the language of literal types and the enhanced rules for +constant expressions make this possible. +

      + +

      [ +Batavia (2009-05): +]

      + +
      +We agree that the static data member +ought be declared constexpr, +but do not see a need for the proposed operator value_type(). +(A use case would be helpful.) +Move to Open. +
      + +

      [ +2009-05-23 Alisdair adds: +]

      + + +
      +

      +The motivating case in my mind is that we can then use +true_type and false_type as integral Boolean expressions, for example inside +a static_assert declaration. In that sense it is purely a matter of style. +

      +

      +Note that Boost has applied the non-explicit conversion operator for many +years as it has valuable properties for extension into other metaprogramming +libraries, such as MPL. If additional rationale is desired I will poll the +Boost lists for why this extension was originally applied. I would argue +that explicit conversion is more appropriate for 0x though. +
