They develop code in C++ and ADA. They have some projects in C++11/14 that use “variadic templates” and we want to include them in Rhapsody but they find some inconveniences to use Rhapsody in their projects. They already opened an AHA Idea https://ibm-ai-apps.ideas.ibm.com/ideas/ENGRHPY-I-363

So, I would like to know if there is a way to prioritize some capabilities that they need:

C++20

• std::source_location: in order to return the line number (or other information) of the client code.

C++14

• std::make_unique: in order to align the creation of shared pointers with the one of unique pointers (std::make_shared is allowed since C++11).

C++11

• classConstructor() = default: various reasons.

• Move constructor, that is to say, classConstructor(classConstructor &&): various reasons.

• method override: in order to ensure that the function is virtual and is overriding a virtual function from a base class.

• Rvalue reference declarator, that is to say, &&: in order to distinguish an lvalue from an rvalue.

• using statement: in order to use it as an alternative to typedef (with the advantage of a template declaration).

• Variadic templates or parameter packs (a template with at least one parameter pack is called a “variadic template”).

• Foreach loop: in order to do something for every element rather than doing something n times.

• Smart pointers: various reasons.

• Scoped enumerations, that is to say, enum class: in order to make enumerations that are both strongly typed and strongly scoped, so that an implicit conversion to intis not allowed

Hi,

Support for C++11/14/17 is in the roadmap for 2023.
