I'm not aware of recent proposals for those but we have discussed ideas along those lines (closures: N2030, C++ lambdas, Apple Blocks: N1451, and I think there was one from Cilk). I think there was interest but not…
Several of us discussed typeof and I'd expect a proposal for a feature along these lines to be well received. (I recall someone even saying they're working on one but that shouldn't stop anyone from submitting one of…
memcpy and memmove aren't special. The part that discusses the copying of allocated objects is 6.5, p6, quoted below: The effective type of an object for an access to its stored value is the declared type of the object,…
This is a common misconception (or poor way of phrasing it, sorry). Compiler implementers don't go looking for instances of undefined behavior in a program with the goal of optimizing it in some way. There is little…
Most of us on the committee would like to see more participation from other experts. The committee's mailing list should be open even to non-members. Attendance by non-members at meetings might require an informal…
The ELF visibility attributes solve the part of the problem at the binary level (by hiding private library APIs from the application). The rest should be doable by structuring the project sources and headers in a…
