July 2008 C++ Standards Committee Mailing Published

Wednesday, 30 July 2008

The July 2008 mailing for the C++ Standards Committee was published today. Primarily this is just an update on the "state of evolution" papers, and the issue lists. However, there are a couple of new and revised papers. Amongst them is my revised paper on packaged_task: N2709: Packaging Tasks for Asynchronous Execution.

As I mentioned when the most recent C++0x draft was published, futures are still under discussion, and the LWG requested that packaged_task be moved to a separate paper, with a few minor changes. N2709 is this separate paper. Hopefully the LWG will approve this paper at the September meeting of the C++ committee in San Francisco; if they don't, then packaged_task will join the long list of proposals that have missed the boat for C++0x.
