C++ Standard Draft Sources These are the sources used to generate drafts of the C++ standard. These sources should not be considered an ISO publication, nor should documents generated from them unless officially adopted by the C++ working group (ISO/IEC JTC1/SC22/WG21). Get involved: How to submit an editorial issue How to tell if an issue is editorial How to submit a new issue/defect report for non-editorial issues More information about the C++ standard can be found at isocpp.org. Getting Started on Mac OS X Install the MacTeX distribution. If you are on a slow network, you'll want to get the BasicTeX package instead, then run the following command to install the other packages that the draft requires: sudo tlmgr install latexmk isodate substr relsize ulem fixme rsfs extract layouts enumitem l3packages l3kernel imakeidx splitindex xstring Getting Started on Debian-based Systems Install the following packages: sudo apt-get install latexmk texlive-latex-recommended texlive-latex-extra texlive-fonts-recommended lmodern Getting Started on Fedora Install the following packages: dnf install latexmk texlive texlive-isodate texlive-relsize texlive-ulem texlive-fixme texlive-extract texlive-l3kernel texlive-l3packages texlive-splitindex texlive-imakeidx Getting Started on Arch Linux Install the following packages: pacman -S make texlive-latexextra texlive-binextra texlive-plaingeneric texlive-fontsrecommended Getting Started on Microsoft Windows Install Perl (for example, using a Cygwin installation and adding perl. See sample instructions for more details) Install MiKTeX Alternatively, you can install WSL and a Linux distribution, and follow the instructions for Linux above. Instructions To typeset the draft document, from the source directory run: make That's it! You should now have an std.pdf containing the typeset draft. Generated input files To regenerate figures from .dot files, run: make <pdfname> For example: make figvirt.pdf Verifying input and output when making changes While in the source directory, you can check for common mistakes such as misaligned comments with: ../tools/check-source.sh After typesetting the document, you can also check the output for further problems with: ../tools/check-output.sh GitHub Actions will also run these checks when you create a pull request, but it's often faster if you run them locally first. Acknowledgements A great deal of gratitude goes out to Pete Becker for his amazing work in the original conversion of the C++ standard drafts to LaTeX, and his subsequent maintenance of the standard drafts up to C++11. Thank you Pete. Thanks to Walter Brown for suggesting the use of latexmk.
