A *very* big part of why span's size is being changed to unsigned is consistency, rather than the committee thinking that unsigned is necessarily the right kind of type. There's some ongoing work to alleviate the compatibility issues between signed and unsigned types, but that work will most likely not bear fruit in time for C++20. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
