📄 Documentation

🚧 Status

  • Standard Library Header Units are ready for production use in VS 2019 16.11, for MSVC only.
  • Standard Library Modules are ready for production use in VS 2022 17.5, for MSVC only.

We've reported the following compiler bugs; this issue is for tracking the status of these compiler bugs and removing workarounds/adding test coverage as compiler fixes are released.

As /clr C++20 support is a work in progress, we are not yet testing Standard Library Header Units under /clr.

❌ Clang

🐛 EDG (IntelliSense Front-End)

  • EDG is currently investigating test failures. STL test coverage is not yet enabled.

🪲 Active, UCRT

🐞 Active, C1XX (MSVC Front-End)

❔ Possible Improvements (C1XX/MSBuild)

  • VSO-1330581 "Throughput for Standard Library Header Units"
  • VSO-1469758 "Standard Library Header Units: Possible IFC size reductions?"

🏗️ Building Deduplicated Header Units

Here's the part of our Python-powered test harness that builds "deduplicated" header units by topologically sorting them:

# Compiler options, common to both scanning dependencies and building header units.
clOptions = ['/exportHeader', '/headerName:angle', '/translateInclude', '/Fo', '/MP']
# Store the list of headers to build.
allHeaders = getAllHeaders(os.path.join(litConfig.cxx_headers, 'header-units.json'))
# Generate JSON files that record how these headers depend on one another.
if noisyProgress:
print('Scanning dependencies...')
cmd = [test.cxx, *test.flags, *test.compileFlags, *clOptions, '/scanDependencies', '.\\', *allHeaders]
yield TestStep(cmd, shared.execDir, shared.env, False)
# The JSON files also record what object files will be produced.
# IFC filenames and OBJ filenames follow different patterns. For example:
# <filesystem> produces filesystem.ifc and filesystem.obj
# <xbit_ops.h> produces xbit_ops.h.ifc and xbit_ops.obj
# We can easily synthesize IFC filenames, but it's easier to get the OBJ filenames from the JSON files.
# This dictionary powers the topological sort.
# Key: Header name, e.g. 'bitset'.
# Value: List of dependencies that remain to be built, e.g. ['iosfwd', 'limits', 'xstring'].
remainingDependencies = {}
# Read the JSON files, storing the results in objFilenames and remainingDependencies.
for hdr in allHeaders:
with open(os.path.join(outputDir, f'{hdr}.module.json')) as file:
jsonObject = json.load(file)
objFilenames.append(jsonObject['rules'][0]['primary-output'])
remainingDependencies[hdr] = [req['logical-name'] for req in jsonObject['rules'][0]['requires']]
# Build header units in topologically sorted order.
while len(remainingDependencies) > 0:
# When a header has no remaining dependencies, it is ready to be built.
readyToBuild = [hdr for hdr, dep in remainingDependencies.items() if len(dep) == 0]
# Each layer can be built in parallel.
if noisyProgress:
print('Building deduplicated header units:', ' '.join(readyToBuild))
cmd = [test.cxx, *test.flags, *test.compileFlags, *clOptions, *consumeBuiltHeaderUnits, *readyToBuild]
yield TestStep(cmd, shared.execDir, shared.env, False)
# Update remainingDependencies by doing two things.
# hdr, dep is the current key-value pair.
# First, keep `if len(dep) > 0`. (Otherwise, we just built hdr.)
# Second, filter dep, eliminating anything that appears in readyToBuild. (If we're left with
# an empty list, then hdr will be ready to build in the next iteration.)
remainingDependencies = {
hdr: [d for d in dep if d not in readyToBuild]
for hdr, dep in remainingDependencies.items() if len(dep) > 0
}
# Add compiler options to consume the header units that we just built.
for hdr in readyToBuild:
consumeBuiltHeaderUnits += ['/headerUnit:angle', f'{hdr}={hdr}.ifc']

With a bit of work, this can be extracted into a standalone Python script. (With significantly more work, it could be converted into CMake.)

Great to see the note that std lib modules are ready for production use (as of VS2022 17.5, MSVC only). Does that mean that the statement shown here in the documentation about not using preview releases in production code, should be removed?
