C++ standard document

Where can I get a free legal copy of the latest C++ standard. (ISO and
ANSI organizations charge for it.) I have searched the web but failed
to find it.

This is the latest version?

ISO/IEC 14882:2003

It's pretty recent. Are there any compilers that support this latest
version?What new C++ features are planned for the next revision of the
standard?

You can't get a free (official) version, as far as I know. Any one in a
position to /need/ one can probably afford the $18 USD. :-)

Yes.

Comeau C++ is fully conformant, IIRC. Go to
http://anubis.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/ for a list of
proposed extensions.

You can get an $18 electronic version at
http://www.techstreet.com/cgi-bin/de...uct_id=1143945. Beware of
the pdf on sale at the ANSI store -- it has some problems with
formatting.

BTW, many international standards are much more expensive. Generally
they are not free. We're lucky to have the $18 version.

There is a link to a "slightly out-of-date draft standard" at the following
location:
