C++26 Proposals: Reflection, Coroutines, Ranges & More
The C++26 standard committee proposals cover numerous aspects of the C++ language and standard library, including the highly anticipated reflection mechanism, enhanced coroutine support, a more powerful Ranges library, and continuous improvements to the standard library. Reflection will allow programs to inspect and manipulate type information at runtime, greatly enhancing metaprogramming capabilities. For coroutines, new proposals add support for asynchronous operations, improving ease of use in concurrent programming. The Ranges library is further expanded with more powerful views and algorithms, simplifying data processing workflows. In addition, proposals include error handling, performance optimization, and security improvements to the standard library, further improving C++'s stability and reliability. These improvements will make C++ more suitable for developing large and complex software, better meeting the demands of modern programming.
