BDE 4.10.0 Release Highlights

bsl::variant Is Now Constructible From std::variant

To facilitate interoperability between std::variant and bsl::variant, an explicit constructor has been added to bsl::variant that accepts a std::variant. The std::variant argument must have the exact same alternatives, in the same order, as the bsl::variant that is being constructed.

std::variant<int, const char*>    stdv(3);
bsl::variant<int, const char*>    bslv1(stdv);   // OK
bsl::variant<int, const char*>    bslv2 = stdv;  // error
bsl::variant<double, const char*> bslv3(stdv);   // error
