  • The project has been renamed from C++ Format (cppformat) to fmt for consistency with the used namespace and macro prefix (#307). Library headers are now located in the fmt directory:

    #include "fmt/format.h"

    Including format.h from the cppformat directory is deprecated but works via a proxy header which will be removed in the next major version.The documentation is now available at http://fmtlib.net.

  • Added support for strftime-like date and time formatting (#283):

    #include "fmt/time.h"

std::time_t t = std::time(nullptr);
// Prints "The date is 2016-04-29." (with the current date)
fmt::print("The date is {:%Y-%m-%d}.", *std::localtime(&t));

  • std::ostream support including formatting of user-defined types that provide overloaded operator<< has been moved to fmt/ostream.h:

    #include "fmt/ostream.h"

class Date {
  int year_, month_, day_;
public:
  Date(int year, int month, int day) : year_(year), month_(month), day_(day) {}

  friend std::ostream &operator<<(std::ostream &os, const Date &d) {
    return os << d.year_ << '-' << d.month_ << '-' << d.day_;
  }
};

std::string s = fmt::format("The date is {}", Date(2012, 12, 9));
// s == "The date is 2012-12-9"

  • Added support for custom argument formatters (#235).

  • Added support for locale-specific integer formatting with the n specifier (#305):

    std::setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.utf8");
fmt::print("cppformat: {:n}\n", 1234567); // prints 1,234,567

  • Sign is now preserved when formatting an integer with an incorrect printf format specifier (#265):

    fmt::printf("%lld", -42); // prints -42

    Note that it would be an undefined behavior in std::printf.

  • Length modifiers such as ll are now optional in printf formatting functions and the correct type is determined automatically (#255):

    fmt::printf("%d", std::numeric_limits<long long>::max());

    Note that it would be an undefined behavior in std::printf.

  • Added initial support for custom formatters (#231).

  • Export symbols when building a Windows DLL (#245). Thanks to macdems (Maciek Dems).

  • Fixed compilation on Cygwin (#304).

  • Implemented a workaround for a bug in Apple LLVM version 4.2 of clang (#276).
