# C++ standard libraries extensions

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | experimental

The C++ Extensions for Library Fundamentals, ISO/IEC TS 19568:2015 defines the following new components for the C++ standard library:

# [edit] Not merged into C++17

The following components of ISO/IEC TS 19568:2015 were not selected for inclusion in C++17

#### [edit] Modified versions of existing classes to support type-erased allocators

Defined in header `<experimental/functional>`
function | a modified version of std::function with support for type-erased allocators (class template)
Defined in header `<experimental/future>`
promise | a modified version of std::promise with support for type-erased allocators (class template)
packaged_task | a modified version of std::packaged_task with support for type-erased allocators (class template)

#### [edit] Polymorphic allocators and memory resources

resource_adaptor | adapts an allocator into a memory_resource (alias template)

### [edit] General utilities

Defined in header `<experimental/utility>`
erased_type | placeholder type for type erasure, such as in allocators (class)
Defined in header `<experimental/type_traits>`
invocation_typeraw_invocation_type | deduce the implied function type of the callable object when called with the given argument types (class template)

# [edit] Merged into C++17

The following components of ISO/IEC TS 19568:2015 were included into C++17

### [edit] optional objects

Defined in header `<experimental/optional>`
optional | a class template representing optional objects (class template)

### [edit] class `any`

Defined in header `<experimental/any>`
any | a type-safe container for single values of any type (class)

### [edit] `string_view`

Defined in header `<experimental/string_view>`
basic_string_view | a non-owning reference to a string (class template)

### [edit] Type-erased and polymorphic allocators

#### [edit] Polymorphic allocators and memory resources

The entities in this section are declared in the std::experimental::pmr namespace.

Defined in header `<experimental/memory_resource>`
memory_resource | an abstract interface for classes that encapsulate memory resources (class)
synchronized_pool_resource | a thread-safe memory_resource for managing allocations in pools of different block sizes (class) [edit]
unsynchronized_pool_resource | a thread-unsafe memory_resource for managing allocations in pools of different block sizes (class) [edit]
monotonic_buffer_resource | a special-purpose memory_resource that releases the allocated memory only when the resource is destroyed (class)
polymorphic_allocator | an allocator that supports run-time polymorphism based on the memory_resource it is constructed with (class template)
new_delete_resource | returns a static program-wide `memory_resource` that uses the global operator new and operator delete to allocate and deallocate memory (function) [edit]
null_memory_resource | returns a static `memory_resource` that performs no allocation (function) [edit]
get_default_resource | gets the default `memory_resource` (function) [edit]
set_default_resource | sets the default `memory_resource` (function) [edit]

#### [edit] Convenience aliases for containers using polymorphic allocators

Convenience aliases and alias templates for containers using polymorphic allocators are provided in the `std::experimental::pmr` namespace for the following class templates in the standard library:

List of container templates for which convenience aliases are provided
std::vector std::deque std::forward_list std::list std::basic_string std::map std::multimap std::set std::multiset std::match_results std::unordered_map std::unordered_multimap std::unordered_set std::unordered_multiset

### [edit] Array support for `shared_ptr`

Defined in header `<experimental/memory>`
Class | Description
shared_ptr | A modified version of std::shared_ptr that supports arrays (class template)
weak_ptr | A modified version of std::weak_ptr that supports arrays (class template)

### [edit] Sampling and searching algorithms

Defined in header `<experimental/algorithm>`
sample | selects n random elements from a sequence (function template)
search | applies a Searcher to a sequence (function template)
Defined in header `<experimental/functional>`
default_searcher | standard C++ library search algorithm implementation (class template)
make_default_searcher | helper function to create a default_searcher (function template)
boyer_moore_searcher | Boyer-Moore search algorithm implementation (class template)
make_boyer_moore_searcher | helper function to create a boyer_moore_searcher (function template)
boyer_moore_horspool_searcher | Boyer-Moore-Horspool search algorithm implementation (class template)

### [edit] General utilities

Defined in header `<experimental/tuple>`
