Daniela Engert: Towards Safety and Security in C++26
There is a perceived push towards memory-safe languages in the developer community. Various administrative bodies want to see a reduction in avoidable vulnerabilities in commonly used software. These vulnerabilities may cause harm of people, equipment, and property.
Long-term efforts in the standardization of C++ look like to become available in C++26. There is a wide range of proposals to improve the language which are currently merged into the committee draft of the international standard, now sent out to the national standard bodies for commenting. Keeping all of the merged features in the final standard is of utmost priority to the C++ committee.
We will look at those proposals, their current status in the upcoming C++26 standard, and the potential impact on the ecosystem and the development landscape.
