List of C++ Standard features backported or emulated by the cxxomfort library.

Last Updated Dec 2017.

• Each feature is identified by its common description (eg.: "get<type> for tuples") or by the proposal document that was used to source the implementation in the form of "nxxxx" (if possible with a link to the document in question).
• The implementation status of some features are indicated in parenthesis - "Backport" or "Emulation".
• Some of the elements are also linked to external implementation or documentation pages such as the ones in the cppreference wiki.

C++11 features

(to be completed)

• n1488, n1601 Null pointer constant. (Standard's recommended Backport) (See Features)
• n1604, n1720 static_assert (Emulation) (See Features).
• n1978, n2343: decltype.
• n2240: enable_if and conditional.

• n2333, n2437: explicit conversion operators (Emulation) (Seeexplicit_cast).
• n2569: from <algorithm>: any, all, none algorithms; lexicographical compare 3-way.
