IMHO both the printf and ostream<< can be discarded as soon there is something better. Both are made inefficient by localization support on one hand but on the other hand that localization support isn't anywhere close to sufficient to help with anything. Boost.Format addresses some issues with it but looks nerdy and seems slow. That std::print also seems to address those issues plus have less nerdy variants but I haven't measured its performance. What remains missing in C++ is compile-time encoded/decoded textual input/output that is useful for text-based protocols. Something that does something useful like supporting escaping and de-escaping special characters by some compile time fixed table but is not paying anything run-time for good for nothing dynamic localization garbage. |
