According to this answer, exception specifications will become part of the function type in C++17. Does this mean that exception specifications for many functions will also change, e.g. functions in the C compatibility headers getting noexcept
specifications? Which standard functions will have their exception specifications changed to noexcept
in C++17?
EDIT: Apparently P0488R0, the 2016-10-19 National Body Comments on the standard working draft, includes proposed changes to mark several C compatibility functions noexcept
(see US 172-178). I guess we'll have to wait for a reaction from the WG21 on these.
C++17 change to noexcept
is permitting function pointers to have the noexcept
type.
C++17 change to noexcept
has nothing to do with what functions in the standard library are marked noexcept
.
Neither depends on the other.
I am aware of no changes in C++17 to mark every function from the C library noexcept
.
