It's not useful to us because it's only useful in one platform. It might be that SG16 hasn't tackled formatting onto char16_t and char32_t and formatting of std::u16string and std::u32string and similar *because* they have yet to come up with functions to do transcoding. But we won't know unless we ask. Or we'll find out that "it's what fmtlib did, so no one has looked into that". We have and we need it. We also would like to have the ability to allocate buffer in the output, write to it, and only then let the output know how much we've written. I could not find a way to do that with std::formatter. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Principal Engineer - Intel DCAI Fleet Engineering and Quality
