Hi,

it would be great if the assert(...) changes proposed in P2264 could
also be adopted for C++23 as a kind of bug fix. The C people see it
verbally as a bug fix, because their assert() specification in the
non-NDEBUG case was not accepting all scalar expressions as specified.

How would we proceed for C++, if any?

There is a very simple change, almost editorially, if C++23 is based con
C23? Otherwise, it might be OK to wait until C++23.

The wording change is as follows:

In [cassert.syn] change the macro definition as follows:

-#define assert( E ) see below
+#define assert( ... ) see below

The contents are the same as the C standard library header <assert.h>,
except that a macro named static_assert is not defined.


Regards
Peter.
