Oh, ignore this. The former mail was replied to a wrong thread.

I roughly read the proposal and found some weirdness in it.

1. operator==​ should be specified instead of operator!=​. As of C++20 there're rewritten candidates.
2. The bases()​ member function should return a range, not a pair​. It's sad story that equal_range​ member functions of containers don't return ranges and we can't fix them. Perhaps it's still possible to fix flat container adaptors with a defect report at this moment.


Thanks,

Subject: [std-proposals] std::elide

For the past month, I've been considering whether we should:

    (A) Add a new standard library class, std::elide

Or:

    (B) Add a new member function named "emplace_invoke" to
std::optional, std::variant

Or:

    (C) Do both A and B

A and B both allow us to do the following: Emplace an
unmovable-and-uncopyable PRvalue into an std::optional, std::variant.

The difference is that A allows us to continue to use pre-existing
code. Third party libraries, such as Boost, contain header files which
have code that uses the original 'emplace' function, and so all of
these pre-existing header files can be used without change if we opt
for A.

Since A can do everything that B can do, there is no need to also
implement B -- although I don't object to simply having it as an
alternative. But for the sake of not making the Standard any bigger
than it needs to be, perhaps just go for A by itself.

So here's the latest paper which I'm considering getting a PxxxxR0 number for:
