October 1997 working paper of the proposed standard.

A subset of C++ intended for embedded systems programming. It is defined by an industry consortium, the Embedded C++ Technical Committee.

The international standardization working group for the programming language C++.

Contains links to the latest library TR1 (technical report 1) draft as well as to the most relevant standardization documents that motivate and explain TR1 functionality.

Proposes integrating a memory model suitable for multithreaded execution in the C++ Standard. On top of that model, a standard threading library is proposed.

This proposal describes a small assertion sub-language that unifies compile-time and run-time assertions. The benefits are among others a higher degree of self-documenting source code, better design tools, and easier debugging and testing.

The C++ language currently supports two facilities for testing software assertions: the assert macro and the #error preprocessor directive. Neither of these facilities is appropriate for use in template libraries.

Explains ways to allow >> to be treated as two closing angle brackets, as well as to discuss the resulting issues. A specific option is proposed along with wording that would implement the proposal in the current working paper.
