    [edit] [{{purge}}] Template documentation

    WG21

    Generates a link to a document of C++ Working Group (WG21), that is CWG/LWG page or a "proposal" file, respectively.

    {{wg21|CWG or LWG or WG21 document-number |full (optional)}}

    The full (optional) argument works only with "proposal" documents, and applying it results in the generation of an additional link to GitHub page (where the proposal is processed by WG21).
    • Example: {{wg21|CWG613}} results in CWG613
    • Example: {{wg21|LWG2844}} results in LWG2844
    • Example: {{wg21|P1938R2}} results in P1938R2
    • Example: (to make a link to the latest revision of the proposal) {{wg21|P1938}} results in P1938
    • Example: {{wg21|P1938|full}} results in P1938 (github)

    stddoc

    Used to generate a link to a document of WG14/WG21.

    The WG/language (C or C++) is determined by {{get lang}}, unless the lang (optional) argument with a value c or cpp is provided (if supported).

    {{stddoc|document number |link title (optional)|lang=lang (optional)}}

    Generate a link to a WG14/WG21 document with the given document number. A custom link title can be provided, it is the capitalized document number by default. In C mode, document number can contain a file extension, e.g. n2081.htm. In C++ mode, there is no need to know/pass the extension due to wg21.link service automation.
    • Example: {{stddoc|p2443r1}} results in: P2443R1
    • Example: {{stddoc|P2443R1|views::chunk_by}} results in: views::chunk_by
    • Example: {{stddoc|n2731|C23 draft|lang=c}} results in: C23 draft
    • Example: {{stddoc|n2081.htm|n2081|lang=c}} results in: n2081

    {{stddoc latest draft|link title (optional)|lang=lang (optional)}}

    Generate a link to the latest draft of the next C/C++ standard.
    • Presently, {{stddoc latest draft}} results in: N5032
    • Presently, {{stddoc latest draft|Latest C++ draft}} results in: Latest C++ draft
    • Presently, {{stddoc latest draft|Latest C draft|lang=c}} results in: Latest C draft

    stddocs

    {{stddocs|doc-list |input-separator=space (optional)|output-separator=line-break (optional)}}

    • A convenience template used to generate a list of links to WG14/WG21 documents by wrapping each element of the input list into {{stddoc}} template.
    • docs-list — 1st positional parameter, an input document list. If second argument is not provided, the elements of input list must be separated by space, e.g. {{stddocs|P0202R3 P0879R0 LWG3256 LWG3792}}. If third argument is not provided, the output links are separated by <br>.
    • input-separator — 2nd positional parameter. If provided, defines the input list separator.
    • output-separator — 3rd positional parameter. if provided, defines the output list separator.
    • Limits: Up to 8 elements in input list are supported.
    • Example: {{stddocs|P0202R3 P0879R0 LWG3256 LWG3792}} results in:
    P0202R3
    P0879R0
    LWG3256
    LWG3792
    • Example: {{stddocs|P0202R3, P0879R0, LWG3256, LWG3792|,}} results in:
    P0202R3
    P0879R0
    LWG3256
    LWG3792
    • Example: {{stddocs|P0202R3/P0879R0/LWG3256/LWG3792|/|—}} results in:
    P0202R3—P0879R0—LWG3256—LWG3792

    stdinfo

    Used to provide information of C/C++ standardization.

    The language (C or C++) is determined by {{get lang}}, unless the lang (optional) argument with a value c or cpp is provided (if supported).

    {{stdinfo latest draft|rev or doc or date |lang=lang (optional)}}

    Is a hub for C/C++ standard draft information. Depending on the value of the first argument, the returned info is:
    value info Example
    rev version number {{stdinfo latest draft|rev}} results in 26

    {{stdinfo latest draft|rev|lang=c}} results in 2y

    doc document number {{stdinfo latest draft|doc}} results in n5032

    {{stdinfo latest draft|doc|lang=c}} results in n3854

    date document date {{stdinfo latest draft|date}} results in 2025-12-15

    {{stdinfo latest draft|date|lang=c}} results in 2026-03-22

    Is used inside the following higher-level templates:
    {{stdinfo latest draft docnum}}, {{stdinfo latest draft docdate}}, {{stdinfo next version number}}, {{stdinfo next version}}.

    {{stdinfo latest draft docnum|lang=lang (optional)}}

    The document number of the latest draft of the C/C++ standard.
    • For C results in n3854.
    • For C++ results in n5032.

    {{stdinfo latest draft docdate|lang=lang (optional)}}

    The document date of the latest draft of the C/C++ standard.

    • For C results in 2y.
    • For C++ results in 26.

    {{stdinfo next version}}

    The version of the next C/C++ standard (with the prefix C or C++). Results in: C++

    {{stdinfo current version number}}

    The version number of the current C/C++ standard. Results in: 20

    {{stdinfo current version}}

    The version of the current C/C++ standard (with the prefix C or C++). Results in: C++20

    Current language

    [edit]
    Returns the programming language to use for a page by default. The output value depends on the title of the page this template is included in.

    {{get lang}}

    If the page title begins with "c/", then the output value is "c", if the page title begins with "cpp/", then the output value is "cpp". Otherwise the output value is "cpp".

    {{get lang formal}}

    If the page title begins with "c/", then the output value is "C", if the page title begins with "cpp/", then the output value is "C++". Otherwise the output value is "C++".

    POSIX

    {{posix|page (optional)|mono-title (optional)|any-title (optional)}}

    Generates a link to the POSIX functions' documentation pages. This template internally uses {{posix/core}} (see below).
    • if no arguments are provided, the link to the documentation root is generated with the POSIX version as the title.
    • page - the page name without .html extension (it will be appended). If other arguments are not provided, it is also used as a title in mono-font.
    • mono-text - if provided, will be used as a title in mono-font.
    • any-title - if provided, will be used as it is for the title. This argument has a priority over mono-text, i.e., if provided, the mono-text is ignored.
    Examples

    {{posix/core|link-part-and-title (optional)}}

    Generates a link to the POSIX documentation pages, if a "stable" part of the link is provided.
    This template should be updated whenever the POSIX version and the root link to its documentation pages change.
    • if an argument is not provided, the link to the documentation root is generated with the POSIX version as the title, i.e., {{posix/core}} results in POSIX.1-2024/IEEE Std 1003.1-2024.
    • otherwise, the argument should be a "stable" part followed by the title, e.g.,
    {{posix/core|basedefs/V1_chap04.html#tag_04_16 the Epoch}} results in the Epoch.
