The paper proposes that formatting support be provided as-if by an invocation of to_string for basic_stacktrace and stacktrace_entry objects. However, to_string produces a std::string which, I think (my grasp of the inner workings of std::format is not strong), can't be formatted to a wide string (either directly or via the format context). Likewise, there is no to_wstring overload defined for basic_stacktrace and stacktrace_entry.

The simplest solution seems to be to add to_wstring overloads for basic_stacktrace and stacktrace_entry and then to modify the formatter specializations to use to_string or to_wstring accordingly.

They are also defined in terms of to_string, but wide streams will convert for charT==wchar_t, but do so via ctype<>::widen which doesn't work for variable length encodings.

I'm not seeing a way how to output a std::string on a wide stream using operator<<.

[string.io] requires matching charT.

That means the operator<< for basic_stacktrace and stacktrace
will simply fail to compile for wide streams.

What am I missing?

I did not initially tag this NB comment as needing SG16 review, but Bryce requested that SG16 take a look, specifically with regard to narrow vs wide formatting. Bryce has indicated this paper will need to be approved soon in order for it to appear in the electronic polling that will be conducted in January.

The project editor approved this direction and we can now move forward with drafting wording changes. This will require a paper produced in short order if it is to be accepted for C++23.
