Recently, I was informed that
<complex>
indirectly included<format>
(in C++23 mode). In C++23,<ostream>
needs almost all contents in<format>
due to theprint
function family, so it's reasonable for<ostream>
to include<format>
since C++23. However, it doesn't seem necessary for some other IO stream headers and<complex>
to indirectly include<format>
.Note that
<syncstream>
and<iostream>
are required to include<ostream>
by the Standard, so it's perhaps impossible to reduce inclusion for them. This PR splits a new internal header<__msvc_ostream.hpp>
from<ostream>
and leaves no any other public header to include the whole<ostream>
.<__msvc_ostream.hpp>
.
