Thank you. I want to offer the same to Alisdair as well. Cheers.

We raised the possibility that attendees (or anyone, really) could compile their own codebases with my implementation of P1144 and/or with Corentin's implementation of P2786, and see how they compare in terms of ergonomics. Both implementations are forks of the (Clang + libc++) monorepo.
Instructions for building the P1144 compiler are here:
https://quuxplusone.github.io/blog/2024/04/10/p1144-your-codebase/

Besides the headline
- Please compile your codebase with this compiler+library combo and report the results!
I have several subordinate requests:
- Please, if you know how to make this more convenient (e.g. for users of VS Code with Docker), give me teh codez!
- Please tell me how to build the P2786 reference implementation!
- Please contact me if you're interested in a short-term contract to add P1144 support to GCC and/or libstdc++!

Thanks,
Arthur

Freestanding Updates

Games paper review

Arthur's suggestions:
(1) I put in the Slack channel
<https://cpplang.slack.com/archives/C3TK2M6HH/p1703947057425609> a while
ago Clang PR #76596 <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/76596>, from
one Max Winkler, apparently in game dev. I don't think the PR stands much
chance of getting merged into Clang; but it might still be of interest to
SG14 folks. The issue description is very long and somewhat detailed, and
then there's more discussion/debate in the comments
<https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/76596#issuecomment-1872601156>.
(I'd actually be interested in talking to Max, but he doesn't publish his
email address on GitHub and I guess that might be on purpose.)

(2) LEWG will be seeing my P3055 "Relax wording to permit relocation
optimizations in the STL"
<https://quuxplusone.github.io/draft/d3055-relocation.html> in a telecon on
February 20th. (Related blog post.
<https://quuxplusone.github.io/blog/2024/01/02/bsl-vector-erase/>) Might
be interesting to folks who do EASTL-style containers. I'd be interested in
early feedback and/or telecon attendance.


Discussion on Embedded:
Paul's suggestions
The next meeting would then be Embedded and I would be interested in
knowing if people think a module std.freestanding is worth pursuing.
In that context I'd like to get some feedback perhaps already for the
upcoming meeting, if people have started using modules, and if so if it has
brought the promised expectations or if you are holding back if you see any
relevance in modules.

Review latest mailings:
P2532 Removing exception_ptr from the receivers concept
Based on the last meeting and the discussions here.
P2544 C++ Exceptions are becoming more and more problematic
We might want to chime in here.
/Paul
P. S. P2327 de-deprecating volatile received a "consensus" straw poll.


Discussion on Low Latency/Finance topics

http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2022/p1839r4.pdf


Who is in FInance

Please will someone stand to be Finance SIG chair?

Bryan St. Amour (Maystreet) ultra low latency, market feed, data handler, high frequency, banks

-data capture side, network, packets, 0 allocation, without dropping to a lower language

-cant do heap allocation, runtime eh is not fine

Nathan Owen(Maystreet) - embedded but now Finace

Ben Sherman (Chicago Trading) - market maker 

-compile time evaluation, value semantics, type manip, 

-strggle in type with iteration, transformation in constexpr values

Jake Fevold (Bloomberg) - finance media company

-contracts

-safety

Alisdair Meredith

-allocators, control memory location, low latency

Gianluca Delfino (maystreet)

- MS before, trivially relocatable object, reinterpret cast, in-place vectors to know allocation, cache locality

-security (not on networks), memory/resource/dangling type of safety, allocation, memory, locality, network facility, lifetimes

Josh Gebara (Bloomberg) - allocators, safety

Is there any grassroot movement to Rust? No from Maystreet. Concerned the RUST hype vs C++ viability and investment. May be offer a C++ solutions to memory safe RUST


 



Discussion about Games topics:

 P2388R1 - Minimum Contract Support: either Ignore or Check_and_abort

2.4 Other Papers and proposals
Relocation: What is a trivially relocatable type
Asking SG14 to provide feedback on both proposals usefulness. Links to be sent after the call
 P1144 Arthur
uninitialized_copy expected to get a memcpy, have a continguous range, but it is not
if there are special functions, it is not copy constructible then you have to do an actual copy constructor in a loop
types that are trivially relocatable, on the object same as on the value, can relocate existing objects
e.g. of these types are vector, unique_ptr, 

can now have a Span of objects, when number is the same, then I can move the objects around, copy/rotate/swap/permute, fastere because it is memove, smaller , more eh safe,
in EWGI in Kona straw poll had no consensus
top down design
Is this useful for this feature?

P2786  Alisdair
Bottom up 
volatile that is relocatble makes sense? nothing that makes it impossible 
in core lang, volatile int is trivially copyable, 
but there are different types where it is under 1144,and under 2786
protection aginst your members, like third party, or Boost 
this one prefers to trust the user
AO: what does that one function do? yes there is a semantic difference: trust what they read, constraint their types reasons they dont want their types to to be relocatable
IN EWG in Tokyo, 16/2 forward to core, one open question to resolve the vexing parse
presented to LEWG, ok with the type traits, is it a building block?
this is a compiler feature with small library
have clang branch

can this solve their problem in this space?
