deal.II currently only requires a C++17-conforming compiler, but there are a number of functions and classes from the C++20 standard that are easy to provide also in case the compiler only supports C++17. These are collected in the current namespace.
One example is the std::ranges::iota_view
class that was introduced to C++ starting with the C++20 standard. It is used as the return type for the ReferenceCell::face_indices(), ReferenceCell::vertex_indices(), and FEValuesBase::quadrature_point_indices() functions, among others, to support range-based for loops (see deal.II and Modern C++ standards for examples of range-based for loops, as well as the documentation of the functions mentioned above).
There are other small additions in this namespace that allow us to use C++20 features at this point already, even though we don't require a C++20-compliant compiler.

. That is, we fall back to what the compiler provides, rather than our own implementations. using std_cxx20::type_identity_t = typename type_identity<T>::type |

This function generates a forwarding call wrapper to the function f
which has its first n
arguments bound to the n
arguments passed in bound_args
. The implementation is an approximation to the functionality provided by std::bind_front
, see https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/utility/functional/bind_front.
This function allows to remove boilerplate in user code. Often functions in the deal.II library take a std::function
object as an argument. While you can pass many different types of callable objects to a std::function
directly, you cannot pass a pointer to a member function. Instead you can use the present function to create a compatible callable on-the-fly which can be assigned to std::function
. This is demonstrated in the following example:
