p2513 - char8_t compatibility fixes #45

Closed ThePhD closed 2 years ago

ThePhD commented 2 years ago

unsigned char[] is both a compatibility and an upgrade issue for people who want good UTF-8 in pre-C++20, want to work with C, and want to work with post-C++20 when char8_t becomes generally available.

This paper was approved by SG16 and will go to EWG.

ThePhD commented 2 years ago

Approved by EWG, needs to be put in polls. Core also reviewed, deemed it good.

This passed polls and as far as I am concerned is in C++20 (as a DR) and C++23.
