2946. LWG 2758's resolution missed further corrections

Section: 27.4.3.3 [string.cons], 27.4.3.7.2 [string.append], 27.4.3.7.3 [string.assign], 27.4.3.8 [string.ops] Status: C++20 Submitter: Daniel Krügler Opened: 2017-03-17 Last modified: 2021-02-25

Discussion:

LWG 2758(i) corrected newly introduced ambiguities of std::string::assign and other functions that got new overloads taking a basic_string_view as argument, but the assignment operator of basic_string and other functions taking a parameter of type basic_string_view<charT, traits> were not corrected. Similar to the previous issue the following operations lead now to an ambiguity as well:

#include <string>

int main() 
{
  std::string s({"abc", 1});
  s = {"abc", 1};
  s += {"abc", 1};
  s.append({"abc", 1});
  s.assign({"abc", 1});
  s.insert(0, {"abc", 1});
  s.replace(0, 1, {"abc", 1});
  s.replace(s.cbegin(), s.cbegin(), {"abc", 1});
  s.find({"abc", 1});
  s.rfind({"abc", 1});
  s.find_first_of({"abc", 1});
  s.find_last_of({"abc", 1});
  s.find_first_not_of({"abc", 1});
  s.find_last_not_of({"abc", 1});
  s.compare({"abc", 1});
  s.compare(0, 1, {"abc", 1});
}

The right fix is to convert all member functions taken a basic_string_view<charT, traits> parameter into constrained function templates.

When doing so, it turns out that there occurs an additional problem: The functions that had been massaged by LWG 2758(i) are all functions that are not specified to be noexcept, but the wider range of "string operation" functions taking a basic_string_view<charT, traits> parameter are mostly noexcept because they had a wide contract. Now with the approach of LWG 2758(i), there are all types allowed that are convertible to basic_string_view<charT, traits>, but the conversion occurs now in the function body, not outside of it. So, if these conversion would be potentially exception-throwing, this would lead to a call to std::terminate, which is a semantic change compared to the previous specification. There are several options to handle this situation:

  1. Ignore that and let std::terminate come into action. This is a different way of saying that we impose the requirement of a nothrowing operation.

  2. Remove noexcept from all the affected functions.

  3. Make these functions conditionally noexcept.

The submitter has a personal preference for option (3), except that this would complicate the wording a bit, because unfortunately there exists yet no trait std::is_nothrow_convertible (See LWG 2040(i)). A seemingly low-hanging fruit would be the attempt to use std::is_nothrow_constructible instead, but this trait describes a potentially different initialization context and is therefore inappropriate. Option (1) would conserve the existing noexcept guarantee for all non-throwing conversions, but now these functions become narrow-contract functions and at least according to the current noexcept guidelines such functions should not be marked as noexcept. But there are exceptions possible for that rule, and the initially suggested proposed wording below argues that this exception is reasonable here, because the required wording fixes just an unintended side-effects of transforming the functions into functions templates, but it doesn't intend to change the actual functionality.

Some of the below suggested overload exclusion constraints technically don't require the additional is_convertible_v<const T&, const charT*> == false requirement, but the submitter of this issue suggests a more advanced approach that should be applied in a synchronous wording adjustment combined with the existing LWG 2758(i) wording: It would presumably life easier for implementations (which are allowed to provide additional member function overloads as conforming extensions), when we would define a mini requirement set for template parameter type T below:

But the corresponding slightly revised wording taking advantage of this "concept-like" requirements set will not be suggested before the upcoming working draft has been published to allow a simpler coordinated adjustment together with the LWG 2758(i) wording.

It should also be noted that these changes have impact on deduction behaviour and therefore may require further adjustments of the deduction rules.

[2017-07-13, Toronto]

LWG preferred to remove in all functions with added nothrow constraints the noexcept specifier (and the constraint) and to possibly improve the situation later.

[2017-07-14, Toronto, Daniel refines wording]

To balance the loss of information about the removed noexcept specifications, all affected functions should get a new Throws: element saying that they won't throw unless this is caused by the conversion to the local basic_string_view object. The existing P/R has been updated to reflect that suggestion.
