One of the requirements is that types must be comparable and in the case of non-type templates that means comparing values. E.g. jf you have a 'const char*' value then what does it mean for two of these values to be equal?

Hi,
Currently, non-type templates still have several limitations:
- must be structural (no private members)
- no allocations even if the type has a constexpr destructor
- can't contain floating point (double or float)
- can't hold strings of the "const char *" form
and so on...

These limitations have a good reason behind them for templated class and function as they produce symbols in assembly and need to be resolved.

But as consteval functions never produce assembly/symbols and will never be resolved by another translation unit than their own these restrictions should be lifted.

What are your thoughts on this?
Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance,
