## Phases of translation <a id="lex.phases">[[lex.phases]]</a>
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
The precedence among the syntax rules of translation is specified by the
|
| 27 |
following phases.[^1]
|
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
1. Physical source file characters are mapped, in an
|
| 30 |
*implementation-defined* manner, to the basic source character set
|
| 31 |
(introducing new-line characters for end-of-line indicators) if
|
| 32 |
necessary. The set of physical source file characters accepted is
|
| 33 |
+
*implementation-defined*. Any source file character not in the basic
|
| 34 |
+
source character set ([[lex.charset]]) is replaced by the
|
| 35 |
+
*universal-character-name* that designates that character. An
|
| 36 |
+
implementation may use any internal encoding, so long as an actual
|
| 37 |
+
extended character encountered in the source file, and the same
|
| 38 |
+
extended character expressed in the source file as a
|
| 39 |
+
*universal-character-name* (e.g., using the `\uXXXX` notation), are
|
| 40 |
+
handled equivalently except where this replacement is reverted (
|
| 41 |
+
[[lex.pptoken]]) in a raw string literal.
|
|
|
|
| 42 |
2. Each instance of a backslash character (\\ immediately followed by a
|
| 43 |
new-line character is deleted, splicing physical source lines to
|
| 44 |
form logical source lines. Only the last backslash on any physical
|
| 45 |
source line shall be eligible for being part of such a splice.
|
| 46 |
Except for splices reverted in a raw string literal, if a splice
|
| 47 |
results in a character sequence that matches the syntax of a
|
| 48 |
+
*universal-character-name*, the behavior is undefined. A source file
|
| 49 |
that is not empty and that does not end in a new-line character, or
|
| 50 |
that ends in a new-line character immediately preceded by a
|
| 51 |
backslash character before any such splicing takes place, shall be
|
| 52 |
processed as if an additional new-line character were appended to
|
| 53 |
the file.
|
|
|
|
| 57 |
token or in a partial comment.[^2] Each comment is replaced by one
|
| 58 |
space character. New-line characters are retained. Whether each
|
| 59 |
nonempty sequence of white-space characters other than new-line is
|
| 60 |
retained or replaced by one space character is unspecified. The
|
| 61 |
process of dividing a source file’s characters into preprocessing
|
| 62 |
+
tokens is context-dependent. \[*Example 1*: see the handling of `<`
|
| 63 |
+
within a `#include` preprocessing directive. — *end example*]
|
| 64 |
4. Preprocessing directives are executed, macro invocations are
|
| 65 |
expanded, and `_Pragma` unary operator expressions are executed. If
|
| 66 |
a character sequence that matches the syntax of a
|
| 67 |
+
*universal-character-name* is produced by token concatenation (
|
| 68 |
[[cpp.concat]]), the behavior is undefined. A `#include`
|
| 69 |
preprocessing directive causes the named header or source file to be
|
| 70 |
processed from phase 1 through phase 4, recursively. All
|
| 71 |
preprocessing directives are then deleted.
|
| 72 |
5. Each source character set member in a character literal or a string
|
| 73 |
literal, as well as each escape sequence and
|
| 74 |
+
*universal-character-name* in a character literal or a non-raw
|
| 75 |
+
string literal, is converted to the corresponding member of the
|
| 76 |
+
execution character set ([[lex.ccon]], [[lex.string]]); if there is
|
| 77 |
+
no corresponding member, it is converted to an
|
| 78 |
+
*implementation-defined* member other than the null (wide)
|
| 79 |
+
character.[^3]
|
| 80 |
6. Adjacent string literal tokens are concatenated.
|
| 81 |
7. White-space characters separating tokens are no longer significant.
|
| 82 |
+
Each preprocessing token is converted into a token ([[lex.token]]).
|
| 83 |
+
The resulting tokens are syntactically and semantically analyzed and
|
| 84 |
+
translated as a translation unit. \[*Note 1*: The process of
|
| 85 |
+
analyzing and translating the tokens may occasionally result in one
|
| 86 |
+
token being replaced by a sequence of other tokens (
|
| 87 |
+
[[temp.names]]). — *end note*] \[*Note 2*: Source files,
|
| 88 |
+
translation units and translated translation units need not
|
| 89 |
+
necessarily be stored as files, nor need there be any one-to-one
|
| 90 |
+
correspondence between these entities and any external
|
| 91 |
+
representation. The description is conceptual only, and does not
|
| 92 |
+
specify any particular implementation. — *end note*]
|
| 93 |
8. Translated translation units and instantiation units are combined as
|
| 94 |
+
follows: \[*Note 3*: Some or all of these may be supplied from a
|
| 95 |
+
library. — *end note*] Each translated translation unit is examined
|
| 96 |
+
to produce a list of required instantiations. \[*Note 4*: This may
|
| 97 |
+
include instantiations which have been explicitly requested (
|
| 98 |
+
[[temp.explicit]]). — *end note*] The definitions of the required
|
| 99 |
+
templates are located. It is *implementation-defined* whether the
|
| 100 |
+
source of the translation units containing these definitions is
|
| 101 |
+
required to be available. \[*Note 5*: An implementation could encode
|
| 102 |
+
sufficient information into the translated translation unit so as to
|
| 103 |
+
ensure the source is not required here. — *end note*] All the
|
| 104 |
+
required instantiations are performed to produce *instantiation
|
| 105 |
+
units*. \[*Note 6*: These are similar to translated translation
|
| 106 |
+
units, but contain no references to uninstantiated templates and no
|
| 107 |
+
template definitions. — *end note*] The program is ill-formed if
|
| 108 |
+
any instantiation fails.

9. All external entity references are resolved. Library components are
|
| 110 |
linked to satisfy external references to entities not defined in the
|
| 111 |
current translation. All such translator output is collected into a

The *universal-character-name* construct provides a way to name other
|
| 130 |
characters.
|
|
|
|
| 138 |
universal-character-name:
|
| 139 |
'\u' hex-quad
|
| 140 |
'\U' hex-quad hex-quad
|
| 141 |
```
|
| 142 |
|
| 143 |
+
The character designated by the *universal-character-name* `\UNNNNNNNN`
|
| 144 |
+
is that character whose character short name in ISO/IEC 10646 is
|
| 145 |
+
`NNNNNNNN`; the character designated by the *universal-character-name*
|
| 146 |
`\uNNNN` is that character whose character short name in ISO/IEC 10646
|
| 147 |
+
is `0000NNNN`. If the hexadecimal value for a *universal-character-name*
|
| 148 |
corresponds to a surrogate code point (in the range 0xD800–0xDFFF,
|
| 149 |
inclusive), the program is ill-formed. Additionally, if the hexadecimal
|
| 150 |
+
value for a *universal-character-name* outside the *c-char-sequence*,
|
| 151 |
*s-char-sequence*, or *r-char-sequence* of a character or string literal
|
| 152 |
corresponds to a control character (in either of the ranges 0x00–0x1F or
|
| 153 |
0x7F–0x9F, both inclusive) or to a character in the basic source
|
| 154 |
character set, the program is ill-formed.[^5]
|
| 155 |
|
| 156 |
The *basic execution character set* and the *basic execution
|
| 157 |
wide-character set* shall each contain all the members of the basic
|
| 158 |
source character set, plus control characters representing alert,
|
| 159 |
backspace, and carriage return, plus a *null character* (respectively,
|
| 160 |
+
*null wide character*), whose value is 0. For each basic execution
|
| 161 |
+
character set, the values of the members shall be non-negative and
|
| 162 |
+
distinct from one another. In both the source and execution basic
|
| 163 |
+
character sets, the value of each character after `0` in the above list
|
| 164 |
+
of decimal digits shall be one greater than the value of the previous.
|
| 165 |
+
The *execution character set* and the *execution wide-character set* are
|
| 166 |
+
*implementation-defined* supersets of the basic execution character set
|
| 167 |
+
and the basic execution wide-character set, respectively. The values of
|
| 168 |
+
the members of the execution character sets and the sets of additional
|
| 169 |
+
members are locale-specific.

- If the next character begins a sequence of characters that could be

the prefix and initial double quote of a raw string literal, such as

`R"`, the next preprocessing token shall be a raw string literal.
|

Between the initial and final double quote characters of the raw

| 214 |

string, any transformations performed in phases 1 and 2
|
| 215 |

(*universal-character-name*s and line splicing) are reverted; this

reversion shall apply before any *d-char*, *r-char*, or delimiting

|
| 222 |
- Otherwise, if the next three characters are `<::` and the subsequent
|
| 223 |

character is neither `:` nor `>`, the `<` is treated as a

| 224 |
+
preprocessing token by itself and not as the first character of the

alternative token `<:`.
|
| 226 |
- Otherwise, the next preprocessing token is the longest sequence of
|
| 227 |
characters that could constitute a preprocessing token, even if that
|
| 228 |

would cause further lexical analysis to fail, except that a
|
| 229 |

might yield a correct expression. — *end example*]

## Alternative tokens <a id="lex.digraph">[[lex.digraph]]</a>
|
| 255 |
|

Alternative token representations are provided for some operators and

|
|
|
|
| 274 |
|
| 275 |
There are five kinds of tokens: identifiers, keywords, literals,[^8]
|
| 276 |
operators, and other separators. Blanks, horizontal and vertical tabs,
|
| 277 |
newlines, formfeeds, and comments (collectively, “white space”), as
|
| 278 |
described below, are ignored except as they serve to separate tokens.
|
| 279 |
+
|
| 280 |
+
[*Note 1*: Some white space is required to separate otherwise adjacent
|
| 281 |
+
identifiers, keywords, numeric literals, and alternative tokens
|
| 282 |
+
containing alphabetic characters. — *end note*]
|
| 283 |
|
| 284 |
## Comments <a id="lex.comment">[[lex.comment]]</a>
|
| 285 |
|
| 286 |
The characters `/*` start a comment, which terminates with the
|
| 287 |
characters `*/`. These comments do not nest. The characters `//` start a
|
| 288 |
comment, which terminates immediately before the next new-line
|
| 289 |
character. If there is a form-feed or a vertical-tab character in such a
|
| 290 |
comment, only white-space characters shall appear between it and the
|
| 291 |
+
new-line that terminates the comment; no diagnostic is required.
|
| 292 |
+
|
| 293 |
+
[*Note 1*: The comment characters `//`, `/*`, and `*/` have no special
|
| 294 |
+
meaning within a `//` comment and are treated just like other
|
| 295 |
+
characters. Similarly, the comment characters `//` and `/*` have no
|
| 296 |
+
special meaning within a `/*` comment. — *end note*]

+
[*Note 1*: Header name preprocessing tokens only appear within a

+
[[lex.pptoken]]). — *end note*]
|
| 331 |
+
|
| 332 |
+
The sequences in both forms of *header-name*s are mapped in an
|
| 333 |
+
*implementation-defined* manner to headers or to external source file
|
| 334 |
+
names as specified in [[cpp.include]].
|
| 335 |
|
| 336 |
The appearance of either of the characters `'` or `\` or of either of
|
| 337 |
the character sequences `/*` or `//` in a *q-char-sequence* or an
|
| 338 |

*h-char-sequence* is conditionally-supported with
|
| 339 |

An identifier is an arbitrarily long sequence of letters and digits.
|
| 395 |
+
Each *universal-character-name* in an identifier shall designate a
|
| 396 |
character whose encoding in ISO 10646 falls into one of the ranges

specified in Table [[tab:charname.allowed]]. The initial element shall

not be a *universal-character-name* designating a character whose
|
| 399 |
+
encoding falls into one of the ranges specified in Table
|

The identifiers in Table [[tab:identifiers.special]] have a special

An *integer literal* is a sequence of digits that has no period or
|
| 610 |
exponent part, with optional separating single quotes that are ignored
|
| 611 |
when determining its value. An integer literal may have a prefix that
|
| 612 |
specifies its base and a suffix that specifies its type. The lexically
|
| 613 |
+
first digit of the sequence of digits is the most significant. A *binary
|
| 614 |
+
integer literal* (base two) begins with `0b` or `0B` and consists of a
|
| 615 |
+
sequence of binary digits. An *octal integer literal* (base eight)
|
| 616 |
+
begins with the digit `0` and consists of a sequence of octal
|
| 617 |
+
digits.[^12] A *decimal integer literal* (base ten) begins with a digit
|
| 618 |
+
other than `0` and consists of a sequence of decimal digits. A
|
| 619 |
+
*hexadecimal integer literal* (base sixteen) begins with `0x` or `0X`
|
| 620 |
and consists of a sequence of hexadecimal digits, which include the
|
| 621 |
decimal digits and the letters `a` through `f` and `A` through `F` with
|
| 622 |
+
decimal values ten through fifteen.
|
| 623 |
+
|
| 624 |
+
[*Example 1*: The number twelve can be written `12`, `014`, `0XC`, or
|
| 625 |
+
`0b1100`. The integer literals `1048576`, `1'048'576`, `0X100000`,
|
| 626 |
+
`0x10'0000`, and `0'004'000'000` all have the same
|
| 627 |
+
value. — *end example*]
|
| 628 |
|
| 629 |
The type of an integer literal is the first of the corresponding list in
|
| 630 |
Table [[tab:lex.type.integer.literal]] in which its value can be
|
| 631 |
represented.
|
| 632 |
|
|
|
|
| 656 |
|
| 657 |
|
| 658 |
If an integer literal cannot be represented by any type in its list and
|
| 659 |
an extended integer type ([[basic.fundamental]]) can represent its
|
| 660 |
value, it may have that extended integer type. If all of the types in
|
| 661 |
+
the list for the integer literal are signed, the extended integer type
|
| 662 |
+
shall be signed. If all of the types in the list for the integer literal
|
| 663 |

are unsigned, the extended integer type shall be unsigned. If the list
|
| 664 |

contains both signed and unsigned types, the extended integer type may
|
| 665 |
+
be signed or unsigned. A program is ill-formed if one of its translation
|
| 666 |

units contains an integer literal that cannot be represented by any of
|
| 667 |
+
the allowed types.

A character literal is one or more characters enclosed in single quotes,
|
| 714 |
+
as in `'x'`, optionally preceded by `u8`, `u`, `U`, or `L`, as in
|
| 715 |
+
`u8'w'`, `u'x'`, `U'y'`, or `L'z'`, respectively.

A character literal that does not begin with `u8`, `u`, `U`, or `L` is
|
| 718 |
+
an *ordinary character literal*. An ordinary character literal that
|
| 719 |
+
contains a single *c-char* representable in the execution character set
|
| 720 |
+
has type `char`, with value equal to the numerical value of the encoding
|
| 721 |
+
of the *c-char* in the execution character set. An ordinary character
|
| 722 |
+
literal that contains more than one *c-char* is a *multicharacter
|
| 723 |
+
literal*. A multicharacter literal, or an ordinary character literal
|
| 724 |
+
containing a single *c-char* not representable in the execution
|
| 725 |
+
character set, is conditionally-supported, has type `int`, and has an
|
| 726 |
+
*implementation-defined* value.
|
| 727 |
+
|
| 728 |
+
A character literal that begins with `u8`, such as `u8'w'`, is a
|
| 729 |
+
character literal of type `char`, known as a *UTF-8 character literal*.
|
| 730 |
+
The value of a UTF-8 character literal is equal to its ISO 10646 code
|
| 731 |
+
point value, provided that the code point value is representable with a
|
| 732 |
+
single UTF-8 code unit (that is, provided it is in the C0 Controls and
|
| 733 |
+
Basic Latin Unicode block). If the value is not representable with a
|
| 734 |
+
single UTF-8 code unit, the program is ill-formed. A UTF-8 character
|
| 735 |
+
literal containing multiple *c-char*s is ill-formed.
|
| 736 |
+
|
| 737 |
+
A character literal that begins with the letter `u`, such as `u'x'`, is
|
| 738 |
a character literal of type `char16_t`. The value of a `char16_t`
|
| 739 |
+
character literal containing a single *c-char* is equal to its ISO 10646
|
| 740 |
+
code point value, provided that the code point is representable with a
|
| 741 |
+
single 16-bit code unit. (That is, provided it is a basic multi-lingual
|
| 742 |
+
plane code point.) If the value is not representable within 16 bits, the
|
| 743 |
+
program is ill-formed. A `char16_t` character literal containing
|
| 744 |
+
multiple *c-char*s is ill-formed.

|
| 746 |

A character literal that begins with the letter `U`, such as `U'y'`, is
|
| 747 |
+
a character literal of type `char32_t`. The value of a `char32_t`
|
| 748 |
+
character literal containing a single *c-char* is equal to its ISO 10646
|
| 749 |
+
code point value. A `char32_t` character literal containing multiple
|
| 750 |
+
*c-char*s is ill-formed.
|
| 751 |
+
|
| 752 |
+
A character literal that begins with the letter `L`, such as `L'z'`, is
|
| 753 |
+
a *wide-character literal*. A wide-character literal has type
|
| 754 |
+
`wchar_t`.[^13] The value of a wide-character literal containing a
|
| 755 |
+
single *c-char* has value equal to the numerical value of the encoding
|
| 756 |
+
of the *c-char* in the execution wide-character set, unless the *c-char*
|
| 757 |
+
has no representation in the execution wide-character set, in which case
|
| 758 |
+
the value is *implementation-defined*.
|
| 759 |
+
|
| 760 |
+
[*Note 1*: The type `wchar_t` is able to represent all members of the
|
| 761 |
+
execution wide-character set (see
|

[[basic.fundamental]]). — *end note*]

The value of a wide-character literal containing multiple *c-char*s is

*implementation-defined*.
|

|
| 767 |
+
Certain non-graphic characters, the single quote `'`, the double quote
|
| 768 |
`"`, the question mark `?`,[^14] and the backslash `\`, can be
|
| 769 |
represented according to Table [[tab:escape.sequences]]. The double
|
| 770 |
quote `"` and the question mark `?`, can be represented as themselves or
|
| 771 |
by the escape sequences `\"` and `\?` respectively, but the single quote
|
| 772 |
`'` and the backslash `\` shall be represented by the escape sequences
|
|
|
|
| 801 |
that are taken to specify the value of the desired character. There is
|
| 802 |
no limit to the number of digits in a hexadecimal sequence. A sequence
|
| 803 |
of octal or hexadecimal digits is terminated by the first character that
|
| 804 |
is not an octal digit or a hexadecimal digit, respectively. The value of
|
| 805 |
a character literal is *implementation-defined* if it falls outside of
|
| 806 |
+
the *implementation-defined* range defined for `char` (for character
|
| 807 |
+
literals with no prefix) or `wchar_t` (for character literals prefixed
|
| 808 |
+
by `L`).
|
|
|
|
| 809 |
|
| 810 |
+
[*Note 2*: If the value of a character literal prefixed by `u`, `u8`,
|
| 811 |
+
or `U` is outside the range defined for its type, the program is
|
| 812 |
+
ill-formed. — *end note*]
|
| 813 |
+
|
| 814 |
+
A *universal-character-name* is translated to the encoding, in the
|
| 815 |
appropriate execution character set, of the character named. If there is
|
| 816 |
+
no such encoding, the *universal-character-name* is translated to an
|
| 817 |
+
*implementation-defined* encoding.
|
| 818 |
+
|
| 819 |
+
[*Note 3*: In translation phase 1, a *universal-character-name* is
|
| 820 |
+
introduced whenever an actual extended character is encountered in the
|
| 821 |
+
source text. Therefore, all extended characters are described in terms
|
| 822 |
+
of *universal-character-name*s. However, the actual compiler
|
| 823 |
+
implementation may use its own native character set, so long as the same
|
| 824 |
+
results are obtained. — *end note*]

A floating literal consists of an optional prefix specifying a base, an
|
| 887 |
+
integer part, a radix point, a fraction part, an `e`, `E`, `p` or `P`,
|
| 888 |
+
an optionally signed integer exponent, and an optional type suffix. The
|
| 889 |
+
integer and fraction parts both consist of a sequence of decimal (base
|
| 890 |
+
ten) digits if there is no prefix, or hexadecimal (base sixteen) digits
|
| 891 |
+
if the prefix is `0x` or `0X`. The floating literal is a *decimal
|
| 892 |
+
floating literal* in the former case and a *hexadecimal floating
|
| 893 |
+
literal* in the latter case. Optional separating single quotes in a
|
| 894 |
+
*digit-sequence* or *hexadecimal-digit-sequence* are ignored when
|
| 895 |
+
determining its value.
|
| 896 |
+
|
| 897 |
+
[*Example 1*: The floating literals `1.602'176'565e-19` and
|
| 898 |
+
`1.602176565e-19` have the same value. — *end example*]
|
| 899 |
+
|
| 900 |
+
Either the integer part or the fraction part (not both) can be omitted.
|
| 901 |
+
Either the radix point or the letter `e` or `E` and the exponent (not
|
| 902 |
+
both) can be omitted from a decimal floating literal. The radix point
|
| 903 |
+
(but not the exponent) can be omitted from a hexadecimal floating
|
| 904 |
+
literal. The integer part, the optional radix point, and the optional
|
| 905 |
+
fraction part, form the *significand* of the floating literal. In a
|
| 906 |
+
decimal floating literal, the exponent, if present, indicates the power
|
| 907 |
+
of 10 by which the significand is to be scaled. In a hexadecimal
|
| 908 |
+
floating literal, the exponent indicates the power of 2 by which the
|
| 909 |
+
significand is to be scaled.
|
| 910 |
+
|
| 911 |
+
[*Example 2*: The floating literals `49.625` and `0xC.68p+2` have the
|
| 912 |
+
same value. — *end example*]
|
| 913 |
+
|
| 914 |
+
If the scaled value is in the range of representable values for its
|
| 915 |
+
type, the result is the scaled value if representable, else the larger
|
| 916 |
+
or smaller representable value nearest the scaled value, chosen in an
|
| 917 |
+
*implementation-defined* manner. The type of a floating literal is
|
| 918 |
+
`double` unless explicitly specified by a suffix. The suffixes `f` and
|
| 919 |
+
`F` specify `float`, the suffixes `l` and `L` specify `long` `double`.
|
| 920 |
+
If the scaled value is not in the range of representable values for its
|
| 921 |
+
type, the program is ill-formed.

A *string-literal* is a sequence of characters (as defined in

[[lex.ccon]]) surrounded by double quotes, optionally prefixed by `R`,
|
| 956 |
`u8`, `u8R`, `u`, `uR`, `U`, `UR`, `L`, or `LR`, as in `"..."`,

`U"..."`, `UR"zzz(...)zzz"`, `L"..."`, or `LR"(...)"`, respectively.
|
| 959 |
|
| 960 |
+
A *string-literal* that has an `R` in the prefix is a *raw string
|
| 961 |
literal*. The *d-char-sequence* serves as a delimiter. The terminating
|
| 962 |
*d-char-sequence* of a *raw-string* is the same sequence of characters
|
| 963 |
as the initial *d-char-sequence*. A *d-char-sequence* shall consist of
|
| 964 |
at most 16 characters.
|
| 965 |
|
| 966 |
+
[*Note 1*: The characters `'('` and `')'` are permitted in a

*raw-string*. Thus, `R"delimiter((a|b))delimiter"` is equivalent to

|
| 1014 |

After translation phase 6, a *string-literal* that does not begin with
|
| 1015 |
+
an *encoding-prefix* is an *ordinary string literal*, and is initialized
|
| 1016 |
+
with the given characters.
|
| 1017 |
+
|
| 1018 |
+
A *string-literal* that begins with `u8`, such as `u8"asdf"`, is a
|
| 1019 |
+
*UTF-8 string literal*.
|
| 1020 |
|
| 1021 |
Ordinary string literals and UTF-8 string literals are also referred to
|
| 1022 |
as narrow string literals. A narrow string literal has type “array of
|
| 1023 |
*n* `const char`”, where *n* is the size of the string as defined below,
|
| 1024 |
and has static storage duration ([[basic.stc]]).
|
| 1025 |
|
| 1026 |
For a UTF-8 string literal, each successive element of the object
|
| 1027 |
representation ([[basic.types]]) has the value of the corresponding
|
| 1028 |
code unit of the UTF-8 encoding of the string.
|
| 1029 |
|
| 1030 |
+
A *string-literal* that begins with `u`, such as `u"asdf"`, is a
|
| 1031 |
`char16_t` string literal. A `char16_t` string literal has type “array
|
| 1032 |
of *n* `const char16_t`”, where *n* is the size of the string as defined
|
| 1033 |
+
below; it is initialized with the given characters. A single *c-char*
|
| 1034 |
+
may produce more than one `char16_t` character in the form of surrogate
|
| 1035 |
+
pairs.
|
| 1036 |
|
| 1037 |
+
A *string-literal* that begins with `U`, such as `U"asdf"`, is a
|
| 1038 |
`char32_t` string literal. A `char32_t` string literal has type “array
|
| 1039 |
of *n* `const char32_t`”, where *n* is the size of the string as defined
|
| 1040 |
+
below; it is initialized with the given characters.
|
|
|
|
| 1041 |
|
| 1042 |
+
A *string-literal* that begins with `L`, such as `L"asdf"`, is a *wide
|
| 1043 |
+
string literal*. A wide string literal has type “array of *n* `const
|
| 1044 |
+
wchar_t`”, where *n* is the size of the string as defined below; it is
|
| 1045 |
+
initialized with the given characters.
|
| 1046 |
|
| 1047 |
+
In translation phase 6 ([[lex.phases]]), adjacent *string-literal*s are
|
| 1048 |
+
concatenated. If both *string-literal*s have the same *encoding-prefix*,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 1049 |
the resulting concatenated string literal has that *encoding-prefix*. If
|
| 1050 |
+
one *string-literal* has no *encoding-prefix*, it is treated as a
|
| 1051 |
+
*string-literal* of the same *encoding-prefix* as the other operand. If
|
| 1052 |
+
a UTF-8 string literal token is adjacent to a wide string literal token,
|
| 1053 |
+
the program is ill-formed. Any other concatenations are
|
| 1054 |
+
conditionally-supported with *implementation-defined* behavior.
|
| 1055 |
+
|
| 1056 |
+
[*Note 3*: This concatenation is an interpretation, not a conversion.
|
| 1057 |
+
Because the interpretation happens in translation phase 6 (after each
|
| 1058 |
+
character from a string literal has been translated into a value from
|
| 1059 |
+
the appropriate character set), a *string-literal*’s initial rawness has
|
| 1060 |
+
no effect on the interpretation or well-formedness of the
|
| 1061 |
+
concatenation. — *end note*]

Table [[tab:lex.string.concat]] has some examples of valid

| 1064 |
+
concatenations.

|
| 1066 |
**Table: String literal concatenations** <a id="tab:lex.string.concat">[tab:lex.string.concat]</a>

|
| 1076 |
Characters in concatenated strings are kept distinct.
|
| 1077 |
|
| 1078 |
+
[*Example 2*:
|
| 1079 |
+
|
| 1080 |
``` cpp
|
| 1081 |
"\xA" "B"
|
| 1082 |
```
|
| 1083 |
|
| 1084 |
contains the two characters `'\xA'` and `'B'` after concatenation (and
|
| 1085 |
not the single hexadecimal character `'\xAB'`).
|
| 1086 |
|
| 1087 |
+
— *end example*]
|
| 1088 |
+
|
| 1089 |
After any necessary concatenation, in translation phase 7 (
|
| 1090 |
[[lex.phases]]), `'\0'` is appended to every string literal so that
|
| 1091 |
programs that scan a string can find its end.
|
| 1092 |
|
| 1093 |
+
Escape sequences and *universal-character-name*s in non-raw string
|
| 1094 |
literals have the same meaning as in character literals ([[lex.ccon]]),
|
| 1095 |
except that the single quote `'` is representable either by itself or by
|
| 1096 |
the escape sequence `\'`, and the double quote `"` shall be preceded by
|
| 1097 |
+
a `\`, and except that a *universal-character-name* in a `char16_t`
|
| 1098 |
+
string literal may yield a surrogate pair. In a narrow string literal, a
|
| 1099 |
+
*universal-character-name* may map to more than one `char` element due
|
| 1100 |
+
to *multibyte encoding*. The size of a `char32_t` or wide string literal
|
| 1101 |
+
is the total number of escape sequences, *universal-character-name*s,
|
| 1102 |
+
and other characters, plus one for the terminating `U'\0'` or `L'\0'`.
|
| 1103 |
+
The size of a `char16_t` string literal is the total number of escape
|
| 1104 |
+
sequences, *universal-character-name*s, and other characters, plus one
|
| 1105 |
+
for each character requiring a surrogate pair, plus one for the
|
| 1106 |
+
terminating `u'\0'`.
|
| 1107 |
+
|
| 1108 |
+
[*Note 4*: The size of a `char16_t` string literal is the number of
|
| 1109 |
+
code units, not the number of characters. — *end note*]
|
| 1110 |
+
|
| 1111 |
+
Within `char32_t` and `char16_t` string literals, any
|
| 1112 |
+
*universal-character-name*s shall be within the range `0x0` to
|
| 1113 |
+
`0x10FFFF`. The size of a narrow string literal is the total number of
|
| 1114 |
+
escape sequences and other characters, plus at least one for the
|
| 1115 |
+
multibyte encoding of each *universal-character-name*, plus one for the
|
| 1116 |
terminating `'\0'`.
|
| 1117 |
|
| 1118 |
+
Evaluating a *string-literal* results in a string literal object with
|
| 1119 |
+
static storage duration, initialized from the given characters as
|
| 1120 |
+
specified above. Whether all string literals are distinct (that is, are
|
| 1121 |
+
stored in nonoverlapping objects) and whether successive evaluations of
|
| 1122 |
+
a *string-literal* yield the same or a different object is unspecified.
|
| 1123 |
+
|
| 1124 |
+
[*Note 5*: The effect of attempting to modify a string literal is
|
| 1125 |
+
undefined. — *end note*]
|
| 1126 |

### Boolean literals <a id="lex.bool">[[lex.bool]]</a>
|
| 1128 |
|
| 1129 |
``` bnf
|
| 1130 |
boolean-literal:
|
| 1131 |
'false'
|
|
|
|
| 1141 |
pointer-literal:
|
| 1142 |
'nullptr'
|
| 1143 |
```
|
| 1144 |
|
| 1145 |
The pointer literal is the keyword `nullptr`. It is a prvalue of type
|
| 1146 |
+
`std::nullptr_t`.
|
| 1147 |
+
|
| 1148 |
+
[*Note 1*: `std::nullptr_t` is a distinct type that is neither a
|
| 1149 |
pointer type nor a pointer to member type; rather, a prvalue of this
|
| 1150 |
type is a null pointer constant and can be converted to a null pointer
|
| 1151 |
+
value or null member pointer value. See [[conv.ptr]] and
|
| 1152 |
+
[[conv.mem]]. — *end note*]
|
| 1153 |
|
| 1154 |
### User-defined literals <a id="lex.ext">[[lex.ext]]</a>
|
| 1155 |
|
| 1156 |
``` bnf
|
| 1157 |
user-defined-literal:
|
|
|
|
| 1171 |
|
| 1172 |
``` bnf
|
| 1173 |
user-defined-floating-literal:
|
| 1174 |
fractional-constant exponent-partₒₚₜ ud-suffix
|
| 1175 |
digit-sequence exponent-part ud-suffix
|
| 1176 |
+
hexadecimal-prefix hexadecimal-fractional-constant binary-exponent-part ud-suffix
|
| 1177 |
+
hexadecimal-prefix hexadecimal-digit-sequence binary-exponent-part ud-suffix
|
| 1178 |
```
|
| 1179 |
|
| 1180 |
``` bnf
|
| 1181 |
user-defined-string-literal:
|
| 1182 |
string-literal ud-suffix
|
|
|
|
| 1190 |
``` bnf
|
| 1191 |
ud-suffix:
|
| 1192 |
identifier
|
| 1193 |
```
|
| 1194 |
|
| 1195 |
+
If a token matches both *user-defined-literal* and another *literal*
|
| 1196 |
+
kind, it is treated as the latter.
|
| 1197 |
+
|
| 1198 |
+
[*Example 1*:
|
| 1199 |
+
|
| 1200 |
+
`123_km`
|
| 1201 |
+
|
| 1202 |
+
is a *user-defined-literal*, but `12LL` is an *integer-literal*.
|
| 1203 |
+
|
| 1204 |
+
— *end example*]
|
| 1205 |
+
|
| 1206 |
+
The syntactic non-terminal preceding the *ud-suffix* in a
|
| 1207 |
+
*user-defined-literal* is taken to be the longest sequence of characters
|
| 1208 |
+
that could match that non-terminal.
|
| 1209 |
|
| 1210 |
A *user-defined-literal* is treated as a call to a literal operator or
|
| 1211 |
literal operator template ([[over.literal]]). To determine the form of
|
| 1212 |
this call for a given *user-defined-literal* *L* with *ud-suffix* *X*,
|
| 1213 |
the *literal-operator-id* whose literal suffix identifier is *X* is
|
|
|
|
| 1237 |
|
| 1238 |
``` cpp
|
| 1239 |
operator "" X<'c₁', 'c₂', ... 'cₖ'>()
|
| 1240 |
```
|
| 1241 |
|
| 1242 |
+
where *n* is the source character sequence c₁c₂...cₖ.
|
| 1243 |
+
|
| 1244 |
+
[*Note 1*: The sequence c₁c₂...cₖ can only contain characters from the
|
| 1245 |
+
basic source character set. — *end note*]
|
| 1246 |
|
| 1247 |
If *L* is a *user-defined-floating-literal*, let *f* be the literal
|
| 1248 |
without its *ud-suffix*. If *S* contains a literal operator with
|
| 1249 |
parameter type `long double`, the literal *L* is treated as a call of
|
| 1250 |
the form
|
|
|
|
| 1266 |
|
| 1267 |
``` cpp
|
| 1268 |
operator "" X<'c₁', 'c₂', ... 'cₖ'>()
|
| 1269 |
```
|
| 1270 |
|
| 1271 |
+
where *f* is the source character sequence c₁c₂...cₖ.
|
| 1272 |
+
|
| 1273 |
+
[*Note 2*: The sequence c₁c₂...cₖ can only contain characters from the
|
| 1274 |
+
basic source character set. — *end note*]
|
| 1275 |
|
| 1276 |
If *L* is a *user-defined-string-literal*, let *str* be the literal
|
| 1277 |
without its *ud-suffix* and let *len* be the number of code units in
|
| 1278 |
*str* (i.e., its length excluding the terminating null character). The
|
| 1279 |
literal *L* is treated as a call of the form
|
| 1280 |
|
| 1281 |
``` cpp
|
| 1282 |
+
operator "" X(str, len)
|
| 1283 |
```
|
| 1284 |
|
| 1285 |
If *L* is a *user-defined-character-literal*, let *ch* be the literal
|
| 1286 |
without its *ud-suffix*. *S* shall contain a literal operator (
|
| 1287 |
[[over.literal]]) whose only parameter has the type of *ch* and the
|
| 1288 |
literal *L* is treated as a call of the form
|
| 1289 |
|
| 1290 |
``` cpp
|
| 1291 |
+
operator "" X(ch)
|
| 1292 |
```
|
| 1293 |
|
| 1294 |
+
[*Example 2*:
|
| 1295 |
+
|
| 1296 |
``` cpp
|
| 1297 |
long double operator "" _w(long double);
|
| 1298 |
std::string operator "" _w(const char16_t*, std::size_t);
|
| 1299 |
unsigned operator "" _w(const char*);
|
| 1300 |
int main() {
|
|
|
|
| 1303 |
12_w; // calls operator "" _w("12")
|
| 1304 |
"two"_w; // error: no applicable literal operator
|
| 1305 |
}
|
| 1306 |
```

| 1307 |
|
| 1308 |
+
— *end example*]
|
| 1309 |
+
|
| 1310 |
In translation phase 6 ([[lex.phases]]), adjacent string literals are
|
| 1311 |
concatenated and *user-defined-string-literal*s are considered string
|
| 1312 |
literals for that purpose. During concatenation, *ud-suffix*es are
|
| 1313 |
removed and ignored and the concatenation process occurs as described
|
| 1314 |
in [[lex.string]]. At the end of phase 6, if a string literal is the
|
| 1315 |
result of a concatenation involving at least one
|
| 1316 |
*user-defined-string-literal*, all the participating
|
| 1317 |
*user-defined-string-literal*s shall have the same *ud-suffix* and that
|
| 1318 |
suffix is applied to the result of the concatenation.
|
| 1319 |
|
| 1320 |
+
[*Example 3*:
|
| 1321 |
+
|
| 1322 |
``` cpp
|
| 1323 |
int main() {
|
| 1324 |
L"A" "B" "C"_x; // OK: same as L"ABC"_x
|
| 1325 |
"P"_x "Q" "R"_y;// error: two different ud-suffix{es}
|
| 1326 |
}

(described in translation phase 1) is specified as

[^6]: These include “digraphs” and additional reserved words. The term

“digraph” (token consisting of two characters) is not perfectly

`%:%:` and of course several primary tokens contain two characters.
