I'm not sure I understand. It seems perfectly reasonable to me to have a=20 statically-defined format specifier like "print this number as=20 hexadecimal" or "pad this value to 8 characters". My concern is that I=20 can't think of a clean syntax for doing this *and* allowing in-place=20 expressions in the format string. - Jim --=20 ---=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= ISO C++ Standard - Future Proposals" group.
