Current Status

 

New language features

• variable templates
• polymorphic lambdas
• lambda captures expressions
• new/delete elision
• relaxed restrictions on constexpr functions
• binary literals
• digit separators
• return type deduction for functions
• aggregate initialization for classes with brace-or-equal initializers.

New library features

• std::make_unique:
• std::shared_timed_mutex and std::shared_lock
• std::integer_sequence
• std::exchange
• std::quoted
• and many small improvements to existing library facilities, such as
  • two-range overloads for some algorithms
  • type alias versions of type traits
  • user-defined string
  • duration
  • and complex number literals
  • etc.
