P2645R0: path_view: a design that took a wrong turn

2024-11-18 Library Evolution Wroclaw Meeting Minutes

Champion: Victor Zverovich
Chair: Inbal Levi / Fabio Fracassi
Minutes: Robert Leahy

Summary

Related to P1030.

ACTIONS: Discuss as part of P1030 (after getting input from SG16):

1. Re-consider full transcoding - reduce support in win platform (char *)
2. Consider equivalent
3. Do we need path_view for C++26
4. Do we need the full overload set (the one that matches path)

No polls were taken at this time.

Next Steps

As a follow-up, Naill has discussed with Victor about removing the win-related transcoding to avoid complications of the type.
We will discuss the paper again with alternatives suggested for the topics above.
