Ideally, bump
__cpp_constexpr
would be desirable.
I believe we shouldn't bump it for P2280R4. P2280R4 was accepted as a DR, and thus implementations are recommended to backport it, even to the C++11 modes. IIUC there're certainly C++11-era constexpr
things that can be meaningfully affected by P2280R4. It's definitely undesired to have __cpp_constexpr
bumped to the same large value in C++11/14/17/20 modes.
I suggest to add a new macro __cpp_constexpr_reference_parameter
with value 202207L
, if wanted. However, I guess it was intended not to add a feature-test macro for the changes in P2280R4.

Indeed, thus this is considered a bug fix, not a feature. No feature, no feature-test macro.

Issue description:
Apologize if this have been discussed. P2280R4 was adopted in the 2022-07 plenary for C++23. However, the paper failed to include a feature test macro change, when one seems to be desirable due to the visible change to the validity of
std::size
mentioned in the paper.Suggested resolution:
Ideally, bump
__cpp_constexpr
would be desirable. The macro already have a valid value of202207L
for P2448R2. Therefore it seems that modifying the standard is not necessary, and only SD-6 need to be modified to add an entry under that value.
