Some compiler vendors may not fully support freestanding implementation. For example, GCC libstdc++ has had implementation and build issues before version 13, while LLVM libcxx and MSVC STL do not support freestanding.
  
−
Compiler vendors may not correctly support freestanding implementation, for either implementation issues (see: [https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=100057 GCC bug 100057]) or just ignoring freestanding as a whole (LLVM libcxx and msvc stl).
+
In C++23, many features are made freestanding with partial headers. However, it is still up for discussion in WG21 whether some headers will be made freestanding in the future standards. Regardless, containers like {{lc|std::vector|vector}}, {{lc|std::list|list}}, {{lc|std::deque|deque}}, and {{lc|std::map|map}} will never be freestanding due to their dependencies on exceptions and heap.
 +
 
 +
GCC 13 provides more headers, such as {{header|optional}}, {{header|span}}, {{header|array}}, and {{header|bitset}}, for freestanding, although these headers may not be portable or provide the same capabilities as a hosted implementation. It is better to avoid using them in a freestanding environment, even if the toolchain provides them.

C++
 

There are two kinds of implementations defined by the C++ standard: hosted and freestanding implementations. For hosted implementations, the set of standard library headers required by the C++ standard is much larger than for freestanding ones. In a freestanding implementation, execution may happen without an operating system.

The kind of the implementation is implementation-defined. The macro __STDC_HOSTED__ is predefined to 1 for hosted implementations and 0 for freestanding implementations.(since C++11)

Contents

Requirements on multi-threaded executions and data races

freestanding hosted
Under a freestanding implementation, it is implementation-defined whether a program can have more than one thread of execution. Under a hosted implementation, a C++ program can have more than one thread running concurrently.
(since C++11)

[edit] Requirements on the main function

freestanding hosted
In a freestanding implementation, it is implementation-defined whether a program is required to define a main function. Start-up and termination is implementation-defined; start-up contains the execution of constructors for objects of namespace scope with static storage duration; termination contains the execution of destructors for objects with static storage duration. In a hosted implementation, a program must contain a global function called main. Executing a program starts a main thread of execution in which the main function is invoked, and in which variables of static storage duration might be initialized and destroyed.

[edit] Requirements on standard library headers

A freestanding implementation has an implementation-defined set of headers. This set includes at least the headers in the following table.

For partially freestanding headers, freestanding implementations only needs to provide part of the entities in the corresponding synopsis:

  • If an entity is commented // freestanding, it is guaranteed to be provided.
  • If an entity (function or function template) is commented // freestanding-deleted, it is guaranteed to be either provided or deleted.
(since C++26)

[edit] Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

DR Applied to Behavior as published Correct behavior
CWG 1938 C++98 an implementation did not need
to document whether it is hosted 		made the implementation kind implementation-
defined (thus requires a documentation)
LWG 3653
(P1642R11) 		C++20 <coroutine> is freestanding, but
uses std::hash which was not 		made <functional> being
partially freestanding
