    I was thinking that it might be nice to get rid of

We definitely don't want that. std::not_fn could be move to its own header.

But I'm not sure this is a good change anyway, as we can't do it unconditionally. Pre-C++17 code would still be using the predefined_ops.h function objects, so we can't remove that code. And we'll get template bloat from instantiating the algos twice, once with the old function objects and once with std::not_fn.

True, what do you advise then ? Should I just forget about it ? Introduce a std::__not_fn for pre-C++17 ?

I am studying this last proposal, let me know if it is just impossible or a waste of time.


    For now I just get rid of stl_algo.h include in
    <functional> to rather use stl_algobase.h. But maybe it would be
    better
    to also isolate std::not_fn in a dedicated header file so that
    stl_algo.h do not have to include all <functional>.

         Replace the internal __gnu_cxx::__ops::__negate function and
    associated
         __gnu_cxx::__ops::_Iter_negate by the C++17 std::not_fn.

                 * include/bits/predefined_ops.h: Include <version>.


No, please don't include <version> anywhere. If you do that, it means <functional> now defines every feature test macro in the entire library, which makes it look like you can get smart pointers and ranges and constexpr math all from <functional>.

Ok, I wasn't aware about the interest of <version>. I see now, limited to user code.

I'm testing only the move of std::search to stl_algobase.h to avoid stl_algo.h include in <functional>. I'll submit it later.
