c++ sites

[Dy7SLyTq]

so i found out the other day that you can now pass strings to fstreams as of c++ 11. is there a site where i can see everything they did in c++11? also is there a site where we can suggest features for c++

Here's a reference: http://en.cppreference.com/w/

I doubt it. The C++ Standard committee composes of expert C++ programmers, such as Bjarne Strostrup and Herb Sutter, who decide the best path for C++. Unfortunately, the C++ Standard committee is not open to collaboration from outsiders.

In the reference section here http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/
expand the categories to the left, C library, containers, etc... C++11 is writen to the right of libraries introduced with C++11.

ty to both. and thats a shame. i have some good ideas

[naraku9333]

Looks like http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/ isn't completely updated (doesn't show C++11 changes to std::fstream).

i have some good ideas

Could try contacting someone at http://www.boost.org/ they seem to have the inside track.

While it isn't generally useful to just say "X would be nice to have in C++" you may check out the following link for some information on how to contribute.

http://isocpp.org/std

comp.std.c++ is a decent newsgroup to seek feedback on suggestions for the language.

The C++ Standard committee is just a group of volunteers who spend considerable money and much of their free time reading the proposals "from outsiders" and trying to fit them in the language. It is very open -- you can literally just walk in on a meeting (although you may not get a chair to sit on, if it's a popular day)

@Cubbi: I didn't realise the committee was so open. Thanks for the info :) Also, the volunteers spend money to read the proposals? So it's not free?

Reading is free. voting rights are $1200 a year (for US), plus travel to the meetings and hotel stays.
