fiber_context - fibers without scheduler

Abstract
This paper proposes a minimal API that enables stackful context switching **without** the need for a scheduler. The API is suitable to act as building-block for high-level constructs such as stackful coroutines as well as cooperative multitasking (aka user-land/green threads that incorporate a **scheduling** facility).

Type-aware allocation and deallocation functions

Abstract
C++ currently provides two ways of customizing the creation of objects in new expressions. First, `operator new` can be provided as a static member function of a class, like `void* T::operator new`. If such a declaration is provided, an expression like `new T(...)` will use that allocation function. Otherwise, the global version of `operator new` can be replaced by users in a type-agnostic way, by

It comes with the utility class template `std::extents` to describe the integral extents of a multidimensional index space. Practically, `std::extents` models an array of integrals, where some of the values can be specified at compile-time. However, `std::extents` behaves very little like an array. A not

Add saturating library support to std::simd
D. Towner , R. Arutyunyan
Abstract
The Working Draft of C++26 includes data parallel types. It mostly provides operators which work on or with `std::simd` types, but it also includes overloads of useful functions from other parts of C++ (e.g., sin, cos, abs). In [P0543R3] a proposal was made to provide saturating operation support for some basic arithmetic operations and casts. In particular, `saturating_add`, `saturating_sub`, `sa

Allowing user-defined types in std::simd

The C++ standard library includes data-parallel types in the `<simd>` header, currently restricting element types to a closed list of *built-in vectorizable* types: arithmetic types and `std::complex` specializations.

Node handles are an over-specified solution to the relatively simple problem of moving nodes between associative containers, which can be done with a more conservative interface similar to std::list::splice. There is a lack of consistency with std::list, where splicing and merging can be done but there is no node handle-based interface, yet lists are indeed node based, too. P00832 acknowledges the

Abstract
The most convenient way to look up an element of a `map` -like container is to use the index operator, i.e., `theMap[key]` . This operator cannot be used, however, when 1) the container is `const` , 2) the mapped type is not default constructible, 3) the default-constructed value is inappropriate for the context, or 4) the container should not be modified. These limitations often force the user to

views::flat_map

Abstract
We propose `views::flat_map`, a range adaptor that applies a function returning a range for each element, then flattens the result. This pattern, commonly known as *flat mapping*, is widespread in functional programming and data processing. Providing it as a dedicated view improves readability and expressiveness, and also opens opportunities for optimization in lazy evaluation contexts.

Endian Views
E. Nolan
Abstract
The main reason for adding these views is to assist users of the UTF transcoding range adaptors (see [[P2728R11]](https://wg21.link/p2728r11)). That paper introduces the adaptors `to_utf8`, `to_utf16`, and `to_utf32`, which take as input ranges of `char8_t`, `char16_t`, and `char32_t`. The input and output of these views use native endianness. But users often need to convert to and from UTF encodi

Synthesizing enum at compile time with define_enum
A. Cassagnes
Abstract
The generative capability of reflection as they were introduced in C++26 are limited to `define_aggregate`, with no quick paths to more powerful facilities (See [p3294r2] for example). We can already leverage `define_aggregate` to impressive effects (See a JSON parser [here](https://brevzin.github.io/c++/2025/06/26/json-reflection/)), here we introduce another basic and lightweight building block:

Consteval-only Values for C++26
B. Revzin , P. Dimov , D. Vandevoorde , D. Katz
Disposition Date
2026-06
Abstract
The Reflection design from [[P2996R13]](https://wg21.link/p2996r13) was based on a model of having consteval-only types to prevent reflections from leaking to runtime. But we’ve run into issues and limitations with that approach, so we propose that, for C++26, we change instead to a consteval-only value model. This solves the same problems, but has additional benefits.

Better Name for Better Lookups in P3091
N. Myers , P. Halpern
Abstract
[[P3091R5]](https://wg21.link/p3091r5), forwarded to LWG for C++29, adds member functions `get` to associative containers in the Standard Library. These member functions work like `operator[]` or `at`, but return an `optional<T&>` value instead of a simple reference; when lookup fails, they return the empty object. While the feature was strongly favored, support for the name `get` yielded only a w

Completing the Mathematical Model for C++ Quantities and Units

Abstract
[[P3045R7]](https://wg21.link/p3045r7) proposes a C++ quantities and units framework built on two core abstractions: `quantity` (displacement vectors) and `quantity_point` (points in an affine space). Real-world experience with the **[[mp-units]](https://mpusz.github.io/mp-units)** reference implementation, together with feedback from SG6, BSI, ANSI, and the broader C++ community, shows that this

During the 2025 Sofia meeting, LEWG declared consensus to spend more time on `zstring_view` ([[P3655R4]](https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2026/p3655r4.html)). This paper follows the direction. We want to make sure that the design goals for `zstring_view` are clearly understood before any decisions whether to even have it, or in what form, are made.

This paper proposes adding a `compare_load` member function to `std::atomic<T>` and `std::atomic_ref<T>`, alongside corresponding free functions. This function performs an atomic comparison of the atomic object's value with an expected value, following the same value representation comparison semantics as `compare_exchange_strong`. It updates the expected argument on failure, operating entirely as

An initialization profile (R2)

The initialization profile should be the easiest to define, but there can be no profile that everybody can agree on without discussion and alternative choices. Also, the rules for initialization and uninitialized memory are far more complex than most people are willing to believe. The initialization profile is foundational to just about every profile, so the initialization profile must isolate tho

Throwing Violation Handlers Are Post Hoc Library Design
R. Leahy
Abstract
The Lakos Rule [1] has long been treated as a trump card in LEWG: A proposal contains a function with a precondition which is declared `noexcept`, someone in the room invokes “the Lakos Rule,” and the function must presumptively be redesigned to remove the `noexcept`. This has impeded the adoption of `noexcept` in the library, and has led to arguably-ridiculous consequences (e.g. `std::vector::ope

The name of the floor division function should probably have floor in it

In 1962, Kenneth Iverson introduced the names “floor” and “ceiling”, and the syntax `⌊x⌋` and `⌈x⌉`, for operations that return the greatest integer less than or equal to `x` and the smallest integer greater than or equal to `x`, respectively. Since then, these names have become broadly used in math and programming.

Implementation considerations of library constexpr-ification

Abstract
A wave of recent proposals targets parts of the standard library for `constexpr`-ification. Some of them have already been adopted in C++26, others are being considered for C++29. These papers are often perceived as straightforward, since they are only sprinkling `constexpr` around the standard library. However, in practice, these papers may involve subtle tradeofs for standard libraries and their

A Policy for Scalar Overloads in std::simd
D. Towner
Abstract
`std::simd` includes scalar overloads for a few operations where variants of a function or operator accept a scalar where a `simd::vec` value would otherwise be expected. Recent papers continue this theme, with better shifts [P3793R1] and funnel shifts [P4010R0] adding scalar-operand variants. This has inadvertently created an expectation that every new operation should provide scalar overloads to

`std::execution` can be thought of as the realization of the asynchronous analogue of a synchronous function [1][2]. The sender is the function itself (with all arguments selected and applied), the receiver is the channel by which the function communicates with its caller (in the synchronous realm by returning or throwing), and the operation state is the “stack” (i.e. a collection of variables wit

They mirror the shape of the existing `views::take` / `views::drop` adaptors and fill an obvious gap in the standard range adaptor set.
