| ## What goes here |
| |
| This directory contains function objects from future STL versions and closely |
| related types. |
| |
| Things should be moved here that are generally applicable across the code base. |
| Don't add things here just because you need them in one place and think others |
| may someday want something similar. You can put specialized function objects in |
| your component's directory and we can promote them here later if we feel there |
| is broad applicability. |
| |
| ### Design and naming |
| |
| Fundamental [//base principles](../README.md#design-and-naming) apply, i.e.: |
| |
| Function objects should either come directly from the STL or adhere as closely |
| to STL as possible. Functions and behaviors not present in STL should only be |
| added when they are related to the specific function objects. |
| |
| For STL-like function objects our policy is that they should use STL-like naming |
| even when it may conflict with the style guide. So functions and class names |
| should be lower case with underscores. Non-STL-like classes and functions should |
| use Google naming. Be sure to use the base namespace. |
