  • C++ Modules: The Packaging Story
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 18 Oct 2023
    There is a proposal for this: https://github.com/microsoft/ifc-spec

    Only Microsoft implants that so far. I gather EDG (which powers IntelliSense) has been at least researching support for consuming IFC files.

    I'm not aware of anyone sponsoring work in Clang or GCC to add IFC support.

  • Module interfaces for pre-built libraries
    3 projects | /r/cpp | 26 Apr 2023
    Note that like .lib files, you'll likely need to build and share different module binary module interface files (e.g. Visual Studio's .ifc) per architecture, since #ifdefs are resolved early. Otherwise (in theory), you could share the same BMI for different architectures since they are largely a symbol table/graph of the parsed code (higher level representation before optimizations).
  • With C++20, what replaces header-only libraries?
    1 project | /r/cpp | 17 Aug 2022
    My hope is that the IFC format can be evolved (with community inputs) into something supported (but not necessarily required) by C++ compilers. I regard something like the IFC as a necessity for the C++ community to realize the full potential of modules.
  • is it still basically useless working with modules in g++-11?
    4 projects | /r/cpp | 30 Dec 2021
    Now, Gabriel Dos Reis has a CppCon 2021 talk describing a way compilers could communicate in enough detail such that IntelliSense, static analysis, etc. would work as expected. The file format for this mechanism is called IFC and here is the link to the relevant repo. I don't have any information about it being implemented in any compiler other than Microsoft's, but it would solve a lot of problems if it were available.
  • I hope this would ease C++ tooling
