[ META: This is the second (of two) patches that I want to land that move stuff that didn't make the C++14 standard into "experimental". ]
Along with C++14, the standard committee is working on several "Technical Specifications", designed to bring features that for one reason or another weren't able to be in C++14 to people before the next version of the standard (C++17??). Those of you who remember TR1 (from about 2005) - this is a similar process under a new name.
There are several being worked on:
* Library Fundamentals
* Arrays of Runtime Bound
* Networking
* Concepts
* Filesystem
This patch takes the implementation of <dynarray> that I wrote and committed into libc++ (before the committee removed the feature from C++14), and moves it into the new "experimental" area, which is where these TSes will live until they are enshrined in a future version of the standard.
That area can be described as:
namespace std::experimental (feel free to alias this to something shorter in your code)
files live in the "experimental/" directory.
If you're already using the <dynarray> in libc++, you'll have to change your code to:
#include <experimental/dynarray>
and use
std::experimental:: dynarray <T>
It's a good-sized patch, but it's just renaming things; if I actually changed some code, then I did it wrong.
I believe that I have addressed all of Richard's concerns with the <optional> patch here.
* Versioned inline namespace "inline namespace __array_extensions_v1"
* Nothing in std::
[ I will re-submit the optional patch soon. ]
