An Overview of C++26: The LibrarySeptember 2, 2024 - 10:58 am
In my last post, I overviewed C++26’s core language. Today, I continue with the library. To make it short. The library does not offer such powerful features as the core language. Let me name them and give you a short example directly from the proposal. std::string and std::string_view Processing The functions around std::string and std::string_view […]
