This change implements the C library dependent portions of P0482R6 (char8_t: A type for UTF-8 characters and strings (Revision 6)) by declaring std::c8rtomb() and std::mbrtoc8() in the <cuchar> header when implementations are provided by the C library as specified by WG14 N2653 (char8_t: A type for UTF-8 characters and strings (Revision 1)) as adopted for C23. A _LIBCPP_HAS_NO_C8RTOMB_MBRTOC8 macro is defined by the libc++ __config header unless it is known that the C library provides these functions in the current compilation mode. This macro is used for testing purposes and may be of use to libc++ users. At present, the only C library known to implement these functions is GNU libc as of its 2.36 release.

Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
This document contains the release notes for the libc++ C++ Standard Library,
|
|
part of the LLVM Compiler Infrastructure, release 16.0.0. Here we describe the
|
|
status of libc++ in some detail, including major improvements from the previous
|
|
release and new feature work. For the general LLVM release notes, see `the LLVM
|
|
documentation <https://llvm.org/docs/ReleaseNotes.html>`_. All LLVM releases may
|
|
be downloaded from the `LLVM releases web site <https://llvm.org/releases/>`_.
|
|
|
|
For more information about libc++, please see the `Libc++ Web Site
|
|
<https://libcxx.llvm.org>`_ or the `LLVM Web Site <https://llvm.org>`_.
|
|
|
|
Note that if you are reading this file from a Git checkout or the
|
|
main Libc++ web page, this document applies to the *next* release, not
|
|
the current one. To see the release notes for a specific release, please
|
|

What's New in Libc++ 16.0.0?
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
Implemented Papers
|
|
------------------
|
|
- P2499R0 - ``string_view`` range constructor should be ``explicit``
|
|
- P2417R2 - A more constexpr bitset
|
|
- P2445R1 - ``std::forward_like``
|
|
- P2273R3 - Making ``std::unique_ptr`` constexpr
|
|
|
|
Improvements and New Features
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
- Declarations of ``std::c8rtomb()`` and ``std::mbrtoc8()`` from P0482R6 are
|
|
now provided when implementations in the global namespace are provided by
|
|
the C library.
|
|
|
|
Deprecations and Removals
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
- Several incidental transitive includes have been removed from libc++. Those
|
|
includes are removed based on the language version used. Incidental transitive
|
|
inclusions of the following headers have been removed:
|
|
|
|
- C++20: ``chrono``
|
|
- C++2b: ``algorithm``, ``array``, ``atomic``, ``bit``, ``chrono``,
|
|
``climits``, ``cmath``, ``compare``, ``concepts``, ``cstdarg``, ``cstdlib``,
|
|
``cstring``, ``ctime``, ``exception``, ``functional``,
|
|
``initializer_list``, ``iosfwd``, ``iterator``, ``memory``, ``new``,
|
|
``optional``, ``ratio``, ``stdexcept``, ``tuple``, ``typeinfo``,
|
|
``unordered_map``, ``utility``, ``variant``, ``vector``.
|
|
|
|
Users can also remove all incidental transitive includes by defining
|
|
``_LIBCPP_REMOVE_TRANSITIVE_INCLUDES`` regardless of the language version
|
|
in use. Note that in the future, libc++ reserves the right to remove
|
|
incidental transitive includes more aggressively, in particular regardless
|
|
of the language version in use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upcoming Deprecations and Removals
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
API Changes
|
|
-----------
|
|
- The comparison operators on ``thread::id`` are now defined as free-standing
|
|
functions instead of as hidden friends, in conformance with the C++ standard.
|
|
Also see `issue 56187 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/56187>`_.
|
|
|
|
- ``_LIBCPP_ENABLE_NODISCARD`` and ``_LIBCPP_DISABLE_NODISCARD_AFTER_CXX17`` are no longer respected.
|
|
Any standards-required ``[[nodiscard]]`` applications in C++20 are now always enabled. Any extended applications
|
|
are now enabled by default and can be disabled by defining ``_LIBCPP_DISABLE_NODISCARD_EXT``.
