 *                   Style sheet for the W3C specifications                   *
 *
 * Special classes handled by this style sheet include:
 *
 * Indices
 *   - .toc for the Table of Contents (<ol class="toc">)
 *     + <span class="secno"> for the section numbers
 *   - #toc for the Table of Contents (<nav id="toc">)
 *   - ul.index for Indices (<a href="#ref">term</a><span>, in §N.M</span>)
 *   - table.index for Index Tables (e.g. for properties or elements)
 *
 * Structural Markup
 *   - table.data for general data tables
 *     -> use 'scope' attribute, <colgroup>, <thead>, and <tbody> for best results !
 *     -> use <table class='complex data'> for extra-complex tables
 *     -> use <td class='long'> for paragraph-length cell content
 *     -> use <td class='pre'> when manual line breaks/indentation would help readability
 *   - dl.switch for switch statements
 *   - ol.algorithm for algorithms (helps to visualize nesting)
 *   - .figure and .caption (HTML4) and figure and figcaption (HTML5)
 *     -> .sidefigure for right-floated figures
 *   - ins/del
 *
 * Code
 *   - pre and code
 *
 * Special Sections
 *   - .note       for informative notes             (div, p, span, aside, details)
 *   - .example    for informative examples          (div, p, pre, span)
 *   - .issue      for issues                        (div, p, span)
 *   - .assertion  for assertions                    (div, p, span)
 *   - .advisement for loud normative statements     (div, p, strong)
 *   - .annoying-warning for spec obsoletion notices (div, aside, details)
 *
 * Definition Boxes
 *   - pre.def   for WebIDL definitions
 *   - table.def for tables that define other entities (e.g. CSS properties)
 *   - dl.def    for definition lists that define other entitles (e.g. HTML elements)
 *
 * Numbering
 *   - .secno for section numbers in .toc and headings (<span class='secno'>3.2</span>)
 *   - .marker for source-inserted example/figure/issue numbers (<span class='marker'>Issue 4</span>)
 *   - ::before styled for CSS-generated issue/example/figure numbers:
 *     -> Documents wishing to use this only need to add
 *        figcaption::before,
 *        .caption::before { content: "Figure "  counter(figure) " ";  }
 *        .example::before { content: "Example " counter(example) " "; }
 *        .issue::before   { content: "Issue "   counter(issue) " ";   }
 *
 * Header Stuff (ignore, just don't conflict with these classes)
 *   - .head for the header
 *   - .copyright for the copyright
 *
 * Miscellaneous
 *   - .overlarge for things that should be as wide as possible, even if
 *     that overflows the body text area. This can be used on an item or
 *     on its container, depending on the effect desired.
 *     Note that this styling basically doesn't help at all when printing,
 *     since A4 paper isn't much wider than the max-width here.
 *     It's better to design things to fit into a narrower measure if possible.
 *   - js-added ToC jump links (see fixup.js)

   <p>We have not met in-person since the February 2020 meeting in Prague because of the global pandemic. We’re instead holding weekly teleconferences, as detailed in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p2145r1">[P2145R1]</a>. We focus on providing non-final guidance, and will use electronic straw polls as detailed in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p2195r0">[P2195R0]</a> to move papers and issues forward in a asynchronous manner.</p>
   <p>Our main achievements have been:</p>
   <ul>
    <li data-md>
     <p><strong>Issue processing</strong>: most of the 50 language evolution issues have proposed resolutions, and a large number of them have been voted on through electronic polling.</p>
    <li data-md>
     <p><strong>C++23</strong>: we’ve started work on papers for C++23 and later.</p>
    <li data-md>
     <p><strong>Incubation</strong>: we’ve acted as EWG-I and "incubated" some early papers by providing early feedback to authors.</p>

   <p>Following our process in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p1999r0">[P1999R0]</a>, we usually mark papers as tentatively ready for CWG. We would usually take a brief look at the next meeting, and if nothing particular concerns anyone, send them to CWG. However, given the pandemic, we’ve decided to provide guidance only in virtual teleconferences, and have an asynchronous polling mechanism to officially send papers to CWG or other groups as detailed in <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-p2195r0">[P2195R0]</a>.</p>

   <p>We’ve reviewed 50 Language Evolution issues at the Core groups' request, and have tentative resolutions for most. We don’t want to poll all of these at the same time, and therefore only polled a subset in the February 2021 polling period, reserving other issues for later polling periods. We’ve will therefore only poll the "tentatively ready" issues (since they’re tied to papers, and polled with said papers, as outlined below), as well as the "resolved" issues since telecon attendees believe that prior work has already addressed the issues.</p>

     <p><strong>Highlight:</strong> new mechanism for specifying or deducing the value category of the expression that a member-function is invoked on. In other words, a way to tell from within a member function whether the expression it’s invoked on is an <em>lvalue</em> or an <em>rvalue</em>; whether it is <code class="highlight"><c- k>const</c-></code> or <code class="highlight"><c- k>volatile</c-></code>; and the expression’s type. Non-<code class="highlight"><c- k>static</c-></code> and non-<code class="highlight"><c- k>virtual</c-></code> member functions can therefore use the syntax:<br><code class="highlight"><c- k>struct</c-> <c- n>S</c-> <c- p>{</c-> <c- b>void</c-> <c- n>memfun</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- k>this</c-> <c- n>S</c-> <c- k>const</c-> <c- k>volatile</c-> <c- o>&amp;&amp;</c-> <c- n>self</c-><c- p>);</c-> <c- p>};</c-></code> instead of<br><code class="highlight"><c- k>struct</c-> <c- n>S</c-> <c- p>{</c-> <c- b>void</c-> <c- n>memfun</c-><c- p>()</c-> <c- k>const</c-> <c- k>volatile</c-> <c- o>&amp;&amp;</c-><c- p>;</c-> <c- p>};</c-></code>.<br>This change has the following upsides:</p>

   <ul>
    <li>This is a very attractive feature, but it is also a radical change, essentially doubling the ways member functions work. I would like to give this a little more bake time. — Against 
    <li>I support the general idea of the proposal but am skeptical of some of the sharp edges (particularly the distinction between "real" member functions, member functions which take an "object parameter," and static member functions). — Favor 
    <li>The facility removes the need to write CRTP, removes many cases of boilerplate, and gives us recursive lambdas. There are some remaining concerns about unforeseen consequences and integrations, so further implementation experience would be highly welcome before moving this all the way to a plenary poll. — Favor 
    <li>This is a very well-thought-out proposal that addresses several pain points in the language and I am eager to see it move forward. I do have reservations about the type of a pointer to an explicit object member function, however.  In the paper, the authors argue convincingly that this new kind of member function is best thought of as a variation on non-static member functions, pointing out that this perspective simplifies the wording changes and also gives freedom to class authors to choose either implicit or explicit object member functions without impacting the class’s interface.  The decision to use ordinary function pointers instead of member-function pointers to refer to explicit object member functions undermines this goal; the decision to use an explicit object member function is no longer transparent to the user. I can understand why the authors made this decision, as there is no pointer-to-member-function type that allows for the <code class="highlight"><c- k>this</c-></code> object to be passed by value.  I’m not convinced that pass-by-value is worthwhile.  I think a better trade-off here would be to require the <code class="highlight"><c- k>this</c-></code> object to have a reference type. — Favor 
    <li>The paper is exhaustively written - and in my opinion the pros clearly outweigh the cons and the trade offs are worth it. — Strongly Favor 
    <li>Possibly the most important feature currently proposed for C++23. The benefits in terms of deduplicating code are motivation enough for the enhancement, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. — Strongly Favor

    <li> Nothing about this syntax is intuitive.  Surely we can do better than sprinkle "auto" all over the language? — Strongly Against 
    <li> Yes. It does look a bit awkward, but this fills a curiously missing gap and the syntax is consistent after all. — Favor 
    <li> Once again, this is an expert feature that could technically be implemented by an obtuse library function. In this sense it is more syntax sugar than a newly invented language feature. But even then it makes the language more regular - a good thing in itself alone - and it expresses intent much better than possible alternatives. Compilers may take this as a syntactic marker to implement the semantic in a more optimized way. — Favor 
    <li> DECAY_COPY continues to become more important, and getting it into the language is useful. — Favor 
    <li> This seems to give a clear meaning to a "missing" section of the language syntax. — Strongly Favor 
    <li> This extension of the domain of <code class="highlight"><c- k>auto</c-></code> is not only useful but fundamentally unsurprising: auto means the same thing as it does everywhere else, nor could it mean anything significantly different here. — Strongly Favor 
    <li> The situation where we deal with standard collections/algos and need to pass in an object too are fairly common. Some of those just work because the standard mandates it (and the implementations internally struggle with unaliasing), while in other cases it’s burden for the programmer. And it’s not a small one, with a huge penalty if missed.  IME it’s also easy to overlook on review.  The workarounds are not nice and beyond the noise can leave unwanted stuff around. And source for additional bugs.  The proposed auto(x) form fixes all that in an elegant way. That happens to handle both type correctness and avoid extra copy.  While it leans on the "smart" side I don’t share the concerns here, as it reflects the T(x) form and uses auto as many other places where T could be spelled out.  And it’s easy to teach.   The considered alternatives are both more noisy and between "less intuitive" and "what does it mean" depending on the expert level. — Strongly Favor

    <li> There’s little not to like: it removes an unnecessary restriction on the non-constexpr code block without putting any new burden on the constexpr evaluator. — Strongly Favor

     <p><strong>Issue:</strong> </p>
     <p>Now that the restriction against local classes being used as template arguments has been lifted, they are more useful, yet they are still crippled. For some reason or oversight, the restriction against local classes being templates or having member templates was not lifted. Allowing local classes to have member templates facilitates generic programming (the reason for lifting the other restriction), especially when it comes to the visitor-pattern (see the <code class="highlight"><c- n>boost</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>variant</c-></code> documentation and the following example) as implemented in boost and the <code class="highlight"><c- n>boost</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>MPL</c-></code> library (since functors have to be template classes in mpl, and higher-order functors have to have member templates to be useful). A local class with a member template would allow this desirable solution:<br></p>

      <br>Is there any compelling reason not to allow this code? Is there any compelling reason not to allow local classes to be templates, have friends, or be able to define their static data members at function scope? Wouldn’t this symmetry amongst local and non-local classes make the language more appealing and less embarrassing?

    <li> This is something I wish I could do, quite often. — Against 
    <li> The restriction seems unreasonable when we have more code that utilizes templates. — Against 
    <li> I submitted this issue - and i can understand the need for a paper. — Neutral 
    <li> The room felt like this may be an issue worth addressing, but it needs a paper.  It’s "not a defect" means there may still be a problem, but we should fix it with a feature change, not as a defect.  I agree. — Favor 
    <li> I’ve written a paper about these restrictions because there are actual problems to solve in allowing these capabilities. It’s not a defect. — Strongly Favor 
    <li> Certainly needs a proposal, not a good fit for a Core Issue. — Strongly Favor

     <p><strong>Issue:</strong> During the discussion of issue <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-cwg799">[CWG799]</a>, which specified the result of using <code class="highlight"><c- k>reinterpret_cast</c-></code> to convert an operand to its own type, it was observed that it is probably reasonable to allow <code class="highlight"><c- k>reinterpret_cast</c-></code> between any two types that have the same size and alignment. It has been suggested that this question may more properly be the province of EWG, especially in light of discussions during the resolution of issue <a data-link-type="biblio" href="#biblio-cwg330">[CWG330]</a>. CWG agreed that this question should be considered from a language design perspective and is thus being referred to EWG. Suggest rejection: we chose to add <code class="highlight"><c- n>std</c-><c- o>::</c-><c- n>bit_cast</c-></code> to provide exactly this functionality instead of extending <code class="highlight"><c- k>reinterpret_cast</c-></code>.</p>

   <ul>
    <li> I’m less concerned with the syntax we use to express this (reinterpret_cast, bit_cast, etc., but I’d like to see more expressiveness here. — Neutral 
    <li> I agree that std::bit_cast exists to cover the key use cases.  It also better conveys the idea of what the compiler is doing. — Strongly Favor 
    <li> reinterpret_cast is about object identity (whether as a glvalue, a pointer, or an integer holding a pointer value), not value, and it would be problematic for it to have two plausible meanings for an integer and a pointer that had the same size but were not interconvertible via memcpy.  In other words, it’s not std::bit_cast, and we have that now. — Strongly Favor

     <p><strong>Issue:</strong> </p>
     <p>According to 13.4.2 <strong>[temp.arg.nontype]</strong> paragraph 1 bullet 3, only objects with linkage can be used to form non-type template arguments. Is this restriction still needed? It would be convenient to use block-scope objects as template arguments. The following is valid:</p>
<pre class="highlight">        <c- k>template</c-> <c- o>&lt;</c-><c- b>int</c-> <c- o>*></c-> <c- k>struct</c-> <c- n>A</c-><c- p>;</c->
        <c- k>auto</c-> <c- nf>f</c-><c- p>()</c-> <c- p>{</c->
          <c- k>static</c-> <c- b>int</c-> <c- n>x</c-><c- p>;</c->
          <c- n>A</c-><c- o>&lt;&amp;</c-><c- n>x</c-><c- o>></c-> <c- o>*</c-><c- n>ap</c-> <c- o>=</c-> <c- k>nullptr</c-><c- p>;</c->
          <c- k>return</c-> <c- n>ap</c-><c- p>;</c->
        <c- p>}</c->
</pre>
     <br>There is no longer any linkage restriction. There is a restriction on storage duration, which seems reasonable (you can use the address of a local static variable but not of a local automatic variable as a non-type template argument).

       <p>Davis: the current name lookup approach which Core is taking in p1787 would disallow this. Supporting this is possible, it would be inconsistent, but would also be a feature.</p>
       <p><a href="https://wiki.edg.com/bin/view/Wg21summer2020/EWG22-Oct-2020">Notes 2020-10-22</a>: wait until p1787 is voted into the working draft, because it’s making this behavior intentional.

       <p>Non-<code class="highlight"><c- kr>inline</c-></code> functions and explicit instantiation declarations</p>
      <td valign="top">
       <p>[Detailed description pending.]</p>
       <p><b>Hubert:</b> question over the role of the <code class="highlight"><c- kr>inline</c-></code> keyword in relation to explicit instantiation declarations.</p>
       <p>For <code class="highlight"><c- kr>inline</c-></code> functions, explicit instantiation declarations do not have the effect of suppressing implicit instantiation.</p>
       <p>A user’s desire for wanting to suppress implicit instantiation can arise for different reasons:</p>
       <p>To reduce space in object files, executables, etc. and similarly to reduce the number of input symbols to the linker</p>
       <p>To reduce compile time in performing semantic analysis for instantiations whose definitions are provided elsewhere</p>
       <p>To control point-of-instantiation, avoiding contexts where the requisite declarations are not declared</p>
       <p>The special rule around inline functions allows <code class="highlight"><c- kr>inline</c-></code>-ness to be used to indicate that the first reason is the intent and that instantiation-for-inlining is okay.</p>
       <p>Consider the following as a translation unit:</p>
<pre class="highlight"><c- k>template</c-> <c- o>&lt;</c-><c- k>typename</c-> <c- n>T</c-><c- o>></c->
<c- c1>//inline</c->
<c- b>void</c-> <c- n>f</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- n>T</c-> <c- n>t</c-><c- p>)</c-> <c- p>{</c-> <c- n>g</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- n>t</c-><c- p>);</c-> <c- p>}</c->
<c- k>enum</c-> <c- nl>E</c-> <c- p>:</c-> <c- b>int</c-><c- p>;</c->
<c- k>extern</c-> <c- k>template</c-> <c- b>void</c-> <c- nf>f</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- n>E</c-><c- p>);</c->
<c- b>void</c-> <c- nf>h</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- n>E</c-> <c- n>e</c-><c- p>)</c-> <c- p>{</c-> <c- n>f</c-><c- p>(</c-><c- n>e</c-><c- p>);</c-> <c- p>}</c->
</pre>
       <p>Marking the template definition <code class="highlight"><c- kr>inline</c-></code> would mean that the intended declaration for <code class="highlight"><c- n>g</c-></code> would need to be provided as the best candidate at the points-of-instantiation for <code class="highlight"><c- n>f</c-><c- o>&amp;</c-><c- n>lt</c-><c- p>;</c-><c- n>E</c-><c- o>&amp;</c-><c- n>gt</c-><c- p>;</c-></code>.</p>
       <p>The issue initially points out that this use of the <code class="highlight"><c- kr>inline</c-></code> keyword does not match a view that <code class="highlight"><c- kr>inline</c-></code> is essentially an ODR tool to allow multiple definitions (as opposed to a way to indicate desire for inlining) and proposed that <code class="highlight"><c- k>extern</c-> <c- k>template</c-></code> merely has the effect of suppressing definitions in terms of linkage (regardless of the <code class="highlight"><c- kr>inline</c-></code> keyword). Such a change would affect the usability of the feature for user intent that falls within the latter two options above.</p>
       <p>I am not sure if CWG is asking EWG a specific question other than the general "we do not believe this is a wording or obvious consistency issue; is this an issue in terms of design?"</p>

       <p><b>Tim:</b> LWG in Batavia 2018 would like a way to detect when the initialization of a reference would bind it to a temporary. This requires compiler support, since there’s no known way in the current language to do so reliably in the presence of user-defined conversions (see thread starting at <a href="https://lists.isocpp.org/lib/2017/07/3256.php"><span>https://lists.isocpp.org/lib/2017/07/3256.php</span></a>).</p>

       <p>The current wording of 9.8.1.2 [namespace.memdef] and 13.9.3 [temp.expl.spec] requires that an explicit specialization be declared either in the same namespace as the template or in an enclosing namespace. It would be convenient to relax that requirement and allow the specialization to be declared in a non-enclosing namespace to which one or more if the template arguments belongs.</p>

       <p>Relaxing <i>exception-specification</i> compatibility requirements</p>
      <td valign="top">
       <p>According to 14.5 [except.spec] paragraph 4,</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>If any declaration of a function has an exception-specification that is not a noexcept-specification allowing all exceptions, all declarations, including the definition and any explicit specialization, of that function shall have a compatible exception-specification.</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>This seems excessive for explicit specializations, considering that paragraph 6 applies a looser requirement for virtual functions:</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>If a virtual function has an exception-specification, all declarations, including the definition, of any function that overrides that virtual function in any derived class shall only allow exceptions that are allowed by the exception-specification of the base class virtual function.</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>The rule in paragraph 3 is also problematic in regard to explicit specializations of destructors and defaulted special member functions, as the implicit exception-specification of the template member function cannot be determined.</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>There is also a related problem with defaulted special member functions and exception-specifications. According to 9.5.2 [dcl.fct.def.default] paragraph 3,</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>If a function that is explicitly defaulted has an explicit exception-specification that is not compatible (14.5 [except.spec]) with the exception-specification on the implicit declaration, then</p>

        <li><span></span>if the function is explicitly defaulted on its first declaration, it is defined as deleted;
        <li><span></span>otherwise, the program is ill-formed.<br> 
       </ul>
       <p>This rule precludes defaulting a virtual base class destructor or copy/move functions if the derived class function will throw an exception not allowed by the implicit base class member function.</p>

       <p>Paper <a href="http://wg21.link/N3922"><span>N3922</span></a> changed the rules for deduction from a braced-init-list containing a single expression in a direct-initialization context. Should a corresponding change be made for decltype(auto)? E.g.,</p>

       <p>  decltype(auto) x8d = { 1 }; // ill-formed, a braced-init-list is not an expression</p>

       <p>  decltype(auto) x9d{ 1 };    // decltype(x9d) is int</p>
       <p>See also issue <a href="http://wg21.link/cwg1467"><span>1467</span></a>, which also effectively ignores braces around a single expression, this change would be parallel to that one, even though the primary motivation for delctype(auto) is in the return type of a forwarding function, where direct-initialization does not apply.</p>

       <p>Value-initialization of array types</p>
      <td valign="top">
       <p>Although value-initialization is defined for array types and the () initializer is permitted in a mem-initializer naming an array member of a class, the syntax T() (where is an array type) is explicitly forbidden by 7.6.1.3 [expr.type.conv] paragraph 2. This is inconsistent and the syntax should be permitted.</p>
       <p>Rationale (July, 2009): The CWG was not convinced of the utility of this extension, especially in light of questions about handling the lifetime of temporary arrays. This suggestion needs a proposal and analysis by the EWG before it can be considered by the CWG.</p>
       <p>This has become a more severe inconsistency after we adopted Ville’s <a href="http://wg21.link/P0960"><span>P0960</span></a> for C++20. Now it’s not only () that has this weird special-case restriction, it’s (a, b, c) too:</p>

       <p>extern "C" alias templates</p>
      <td valign="top">
       <p>Currently 13 [temp] paragraph 4 forbids any template from having C linkage. Should alias templates be exempt from this prohibition, since they do not have any linkage?</p>
       <p>Additional note, April, 2013: It was suggested (see messages 23364 through 23367) that relaxing this restriction for alias templates could provide a way of addressing the long-standing lack of a way of specifying a language linkage for a dependent function type (see issue <a href="http://wg21.link/cwg13"><span>13</span></a>). The priority was deleted to allow CWG to consider the implications of that potential application of the facility.</p>
       <p>We should either have some way to express a dependent function type with C language linkage (and should accept <a href="http://wg21.link/cwg1555"><span>1555</span></a> below) or we should remove the notion that C language linkage (or not) is part of the function type at all. (Apparently some targets used it; are they still in use? EDG probably knows.)</p>

       <p><br></p>
       <p><b>Davis’ interpretation of CWG discussion</b>:</p>
       <p>I don’t speak for Core, of course, but my (Evolutionary) thoughts are those given (last) in the message to which you replied: neither the wording nor the apparent intent of [temp.pre]/6’s restrictions on C linkage for templates make any sense.  Since templates (and explicit specializations) can’t have C linkage of the name-mangling variety (which the standard calls language linkage of a (function) name) but can have C linkage of the calling-convention variety (which the standard calls language linkage of a (function) type), extern "C" should grant them the latter and not the former with no error.  This has certain obvious applications involving C APIs with callbacks.  (Put differently, CWG13 shouldn’t have been rejected; it appears to have gotten bogged down in questions of syntax, but we have an adequate syntactic workaround that we merely have to permit.)</p>
       <p>CWG1463 asks for a (very) proper subset of the above: merely that extern "C" be allowed to apply to alias templates (claiming incorrectly that they have no name with linkage at all).  I consider it more relevant (and more productive) to talk about whether entities have names with language linkage than with the ordinary kind.</p>
       <p>The Core reflector discussion (which seems to have finished for the moment) also touched on the case where "the same" function template is declared with two different language linkages for its type, but the only relevant Evolution input there would be a decision to go the opposite way and forbid function templates from having types with C language linkage entirely.  (They currently can, but it’s mostly or entirely useless.)</p>
       <p>If (for CWG1555, also on your list) the rules about language linkage of (function) types are sufficiently relaxed, then CWG1463 may be moot (and my extension of it with it), but that seems unlikely given Hubert’s recent identification of a case where they matter.</p>

       <p>The problem here (which is not explained in the issue) is: how do you supply the name of the last parameter before the ellipsis to va_start?

       <p>Type of __func__</p>
      <td valign="top">
       <p>Two questions have arisen regarding the treatment of the type of the __func__ built-in variable. First, some implementations accept</p>
       <p>  void f() {</p>
       <p>    typedef decltype(__func__) T;</p>
       <p>    T x = __func__;</p>
       <p>  }</p>
       <p>even though T is specified to be an array type.</p>
       <p>In a related question, it was noted that __func__ is implicitly required to be unique in each function, and that not only the value but the type of __func__ are implementation-defined; e.g., in something like</p>
       <p>  inline auto f() { return &amp;__func__; }</p>
       <p>the function type is implementation-specific. These concerns could be addressed by making the value a prvalue of type const char* instead of an array lvalue.</p>
       <p>Rationale (November, 2018): See also issue <a href="http://wg21.link/cwg2362"><span>2362</span></a>, which asks for the ability to use __func__ in a constexpr function. These two goals are incompatible.</p>
       <p>The deep question here is about __func__ and the ODR. Does EWG want implementations to somehow behave as if __func__ is the same in all copies of an inline function (in which case it can have an array type and be usable in constant expressions, but the <em>demangling</em> algorithm used to construct it becomes part of the ABI), or does EWG want implementations to behave as if __func__ may differ between copies, so is in effect not known until runtime (in which case it must have either pointer or incomplete array type, and its value is not usable in constant expressions -- but its address could still be usable).</p>
       <p>Note: C++20 has std::source_location::function_name.</p>

       <p>Ambiguity resolution for cast to function type</p>
      <td valign="top">
       <p><span><a href="http://wiki.edg.com/pub/Wg21summer2020/CoreWorkingGroup/cwg2228.html?twiki_redirect_cache=5aceede89e9128019e50cb532244e26f">Proposed resolution.</a></span></p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>C++ has a blanket disambiguation rule that says if a sequence of tokens can be interpreted as either a type-name or an expression, the type-name interpretation is chosen. This is unhelpful in cases like</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>    (T())+3</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>where the current rules make "(T())" a cast to the type "function with no parameters returning T" rather than a parenthesized value-initialization of a temporary of type T. The former interpretation is always ill-formed - you can’t cast to a function type - while the latter could be useful.</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>Richard’s proposed resolution, cited above, is to avoid the ambiguity by changing the grammar so that cases like "(T())" cannot be parsed as a cast. The wording in the proposal applies that change to a number of different contexts where the ambiguity can come into play. There are two contexts where the change is _not_ applied, however: 1) the operand of typeid, and 2) a template-argument. During our discussion yesterday, there was some support for the idea of applying the change to typeid, as well, although that would be a breaking change for any programs that rely on the current disambiguation to get type information for such function types. There was general agreement, however, to exclude template arguments, since they are used for things like std::function.</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>CWG would, therefore, like some guidance from EWG on two questions. First, should we apply the new syntax to the operand of typeid, even though it’s a breaking change?</p>
       <p><br></p>
       <p>More generally, the question was raised whether we should make this change at all. Although resolving the ambiguity in the other direction would arguably be more convenient in many cases, there is a tension between that convenience and the complexity of the language. In particular, we would be creating a situation where the exact same sequence of tokens would mean two different things, depending on the context in which they appear. Is the convenience worth the cost in complexity?</p>

       <p>When is the substitution into the return type done?
