I was missing Java‘s lastIndexOf function in C++ the other day. So here is my interpretation of it:

There are probably better variants, so feel free to improve on it!

Why the heck did C++ deprecate codecvt? And why the heck will it remove it and all utf conversion functions in C++26? #cxx #unicode

To all the C++ #cxx experts out there: Is there a compelling reason why std::basic_fstream doesn’t allow for:
a. A custom allocator
b. A custom buffer during construction?
I can call rdbuf()->pubsetbuf() after construction, however I think I don’t have a guarantee that a buffer hasn’t already been allocated.
This is annoying if you are using your own heap implementation. Any good hints on how to solve this?
