That will work on a modern GCC or clang with an appropriate compiler flag. I don't know about MSVC, but it might be an option for people who want to use more esoteric compilers which support standards but aren't very compatible with GCC and clang. -- brian m. carlson (they/them) Toronto, Ontario, CA
