how to get C++ language specifications

Hi ALL,

Is there any place from where I can download C++ language
specifications? I am looking for C++ specifications means how function
call works, how memory is allocated etc... I am searching for such
specifications or standards which is provided for compiler
development. I think such standards must be written somewhere using
which different vendors provide their compilers. Reason I am looking
for such standards is I want to go deep into C++ and want to know how C
++ is designed. After working 4yrs on application side using C++ I
like to dig deep inside C++ specifications.

Thanx in advance for your help.

Regards,
Premal Panchal

I agree!
This book is a deep view of C++, Maybe, the source code of GCC is also a
good stuff.

Hi all, i started a little "practical language comparison" - practical in the sense that i compare how actual distributions and versions and their libraries (not abstract language specifications) solve small test cases like the 8 queens problem.

I can no longer understand why anyone would willingly use C to program anything but the lowest...

When we talk about safe code regarding C#, what do we realy mean? Is safe code the same as managed code literally? Why people say that C# is a component-oriented language? What differences there exist between an event and a method in C#? What differences there exist between a properties and an attribute in C#? Why we need to write unsafe code, like inline C code sometimes in C#?

Hi, can't figure this one out, what's the CSS way to specify the language? In HTML it would be simply an lang="xx" attribute, or XHTML xml:lang="xx", but, how about in CSS? This would be required for a screen reader (text to speech) for accessibility, to help the reader software use the correct presentation method (e.g. correct language module).

Hi all, Just wondering whether there's any reason why exception specifications are enforced at runtime, rather than at compile-time like in Java?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
