Proposed resolution:
21.5p3 [string.conversions]
int stoi(const string& str, size_t *idx = 0, int base = 10); long stol(const string& str, size_t *idx = 0, int base = 10); unsigned long stoul(const string& str, size_t *idx = 0, int base = 10); long long stoll(const string& str, size_t *idx = 0, int base = 10); unsigned long long stoull(const string& str, size_t *idx = 0, int base = 10);...
3 Throws: invalid_argument if strtol, strtoul, strtoll, or strtoull reports that no conversion could be performed. Throws out_of_range if strtol, strtoul, strtoll or strtoull sets errno to ERANGE, or if the converted value is outside the range of representable values for the return type.
21.5p6 [string.conversions]
float stof(const string& str, size_t *idx = 0); double stod(const string& str, size_t *idx = 0); long double stold(const string& str, size_t *idx = 0);...
6 Throws: invalid_argument if strtod or strtold reports that no conversion could be performed. Throws out_of_range if strtod or strtold sets errno to ERANGE or if the converted value is outside the range of representable values for the return type.
The functions (w)stoi and (w)stof are specified in terms of calling C library APIs for potentially wider types. The integer and floating-point versions have subtly different behaviour when reading values that are too large to convert. The floating point case will throw out_of_bound if the read value is too large to convert to the wider type used in the implementation, but behaviour is undefined if the converted value cannot narrow to a float. The integer case will throw out_of_bounds if the converted value cannot be represented in the narrower type, but throws invalid_argument, rather than out_of_bounds, if the conversion to the wider type fails due to overflow.
Suggest that the Throws clause for both specifications should be consistent, supporting the same set of fail-modes with the matching set of exceptions.
