Meta LWG issue: 2024-03 meeting #4491

Description

(Previous meta-issue: #4158)

At the March 2024 meeting, the following LWG issues were resolved in the C++ Working Paper.

❔ Not yet analyzed

  • Remaining issues:
    • All done!

❌ Not applicable

If an issue requires no action from implementers, we mark it as N/A. Categories:

  • Pure wording clarifications with nothing to implement (these can be changes to non-normative text like examples and informative notes, or wording cleanups to normative text that don't impact observable behavior)
    • LWG-4011 "Effects: Equivalent to return" in [span.elem]
    • LWG-4030 Clarify whether arithmetic expressions in [numeric.sat.func] are mathematical or C++
    • LWG-4036 __alignof_is_defined is only implicitly specified in C++ and not yet deprecated
      • Like LWG-3827, there's nothing for us to do here. Should we ping UCRT to implement macro deprecation? See also DevCom-10559200.
    • LWG-4043 "ASCII" is not a registered character encoding
  • Something that increases the restrictions placed on users, but implementers aren't expected to enforce those restrictions
    • LWG-3975 Specializations of basic_format_context should not be permitted
    • LWG-4023 Preconditions of std::basic_streambuf::setg/setp
  • Fixes for obviously broken wording, where implementers would have done the right thing anyways

😸 Already implemented

Sometimes we cite LWG issues in product code comments as we're implementing their proposed resolutions. When the resolutions are officially accepted, we should remove the citations (as the default assumption is that we're implementing what the Standard says). If something is especially subtle, we can convert the citation to mention the relevant Standard section. Sometimes we should add test coverage - e.g. when the Standard begins requiring something that we were already doing, but weren't explicitly testing for.

  • Already implemented, comments need to be removed and messages need to cite the Standard
  • Implemented without comments
    • LWG-4025 Move assignment operator of std::expected<cv void, E> should not be conditionally deleted
    • LWG-4031 bad_expected_access<void> member functions should be noexcept

🩹 Patches an unimplemented feature

We should record this LWG issue in the GitHub issue tracking the feature. That way, we'll remember to verify it, but it doesn't represent net new work.
