C++20
C++20 is the informal name for the revision of the ISO/IEC standard for the C++ programming language expected to follow C++17. [1] The C++ Standards Committee began planning C++20 in July of 2017. [2]
Below is a partial list of changes that have been proposed or discussed for inclusion into C++20. [3]
Possible new language features
The following were voted into the C++20 draft in July 2017:[4]
- Concepts[5]
- Designated initializers[6] (based on the C99 feature)
-
[=, this]as a lambda capture[7] - Template parameter lists on lambdas[8]
Other possible new language features:
- Coroutines[9]
- Modules[10] – experimentally supported in Clang 5[11] and Visual Studio 2015 Update 1
- Transactional memory[12]
- Reflection[13]
Possible library changes
- Atomic smart pointers[14] (std::atomic_shared_ptr and std::atomic_weak_ptr)
- Extended futures[15]
- Latches and barriers[16]
- Networking extensions[17], including async, basic IO services, timers, buffers and buffer-oriented streams, sockets, and internet protocols.
- Ranges[18]
- Task blocks[19]
- Metaclasses[20]
