Version 3 of the C++ Extensions for Library Fundamentals, defines the following new components for the C++ standard library, in addition to those defined in version 1 and version 2.

Components merged into C++17/20 and the following components are removed in LFTS v3:

• std::experimental::make_array,
• std::experimental::erased_type,
• std::experimental::packaged_task, and
• std::experimental::promise.

Scope guard

Defined in header <experimental/scope>
scope_exit	wraps a function object and invokes it on exiting the scope (class template)
scope_fail	wraps a function object and invokes it on exiting the scope through an exception (class template)
scope_success	wraps a function object and invokes it on exiting the scope normally (class template)
unique_resource	universal RAII resource handle wrapper (class template)

Feature test macros

Defined in header <experimental/memory_resource>
__cpp_lib_experimental_memory_resources	a value of at least 201803 indicates that resource_adaptor is supported (macro constant)
Defined in header <experimental/functional>
__cpp_lib_experimental_function_polymorphic_allocator	a value of at least 202211 indicates that std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator<> is used for std::experimental::function (macro constant)
Defined in header <experimental/scope>
__cpp_lib_experimental_scope	a value of at least 201902 indicates that the scope guards are supported (macro constant)

Notes

The value of __cpp_lib_experimental_memory_resources has been increased in LFTS v3, because the design of resource_adaptor is rebased onto std::pmr::memory_resource.
