Bug ID: 89181
Summary: Can std C++ library follow ISO spec parameter names?
Product: gcc
Version: 8.2.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: libstdc++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: jg at jguk dot org
Target Milestone: ---
Can the libstd++ header files show the same parameter names as the spec without
__ etc?
Eg latest C++ spec draft page 679 shows
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2017/n4713.pdf
basic_string& erase(size_type pos = 0, size_type n = npos);
vs
/usr/include/c++/8/bits/basic_string.h:1788
basic_string&
erase(size_type __pos = 0, size_type __n = npos)
I thought the __ is really reserved for compilers internal use, not for library
interfaces, and it just fills the build output, I know it is only 2 bytes the
__, but it adds up and makes the stl interfaces look messy.
