ISO C++ Meeting in Hagenberg, Austria 2025
February 10, 2025
The first ISO C++ committee meeting of the year will be held in Hagenberg, Austria, during the week of February 10-15, 2025.
ISO C++ committee is a working group within the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) responsible for defining and evolving the C++ programming language through collaboration among experts from around the world.
Jonathan Müller, our Software Engineer and ISO C++ committee member, will be attending the meeting. He shares his expectations:
"The meeting will be the last meeting to approve new features for C++26. If a proposal is not forwarded to wording review there, it will have to wait until C++29. There is going to be an intense scramble to add profiles, relocation, and parallel algorithms, as well as merge fixes to SIMD and senders/receivers before it is too late to make breaking changes. I expect continued heated discussions about profiles, contracts, and reflections. I hope reflection will make it despite concerns about reflecting private members, but I think profiles and contracts are too controversial to have consensus.
Personally, I have written two papers improving
std::ranges
: One proposes a deprecation of const-qualified viewsbegin/end
to prevent a common pitfall of beginners, and one adds aninfinite_range
concept to help with some corner cases. They are the beginning of my plans to smooth out rough edges ofstd::ranges
for the C++29 time frame."
We’re proud to be part of the standardization efforts and look forward to meeting in Hagenberg, Austria, soon.
