What C++0x Headers are supposed to define nullptr?

问题

Now that C++0x is almost here, I've been experimenting with it, and in particular using nullptr. I haven't been able to figure out what standard header files one is supposed to include if one needs to use it.

Any help is appreciated.

No headers should be required. It is a built-in keyword (§[lex.nullptr]).

2.14.7 Pointer literals                 [lex.nullptr]

pointer-literal:
        nullptr

The pointer literal is the keyword nullptr. It is a prvalue of type std::nullptr_t. [ Note: std::nullptr_t is a distinct type that is neither a pointer type nor a pointer to member type; rather, a prvalue of this type is a null pointer constant and can be converted to a null pointer value or null member pointer value. See 4.10 and 4.11. —endnote]

Its type, std::nullptr_t, however, is "defined" in the header <cstddef> (§[support.types]/9).

nullptr_t is defined as follows:

namespace std {
    typedef decltype(nullptr) nullptr_t;
}

The type for which nullptr_t is a synonym has the characteristics described in 3.9.1 and 4.10. [Note: Although nullptr’s address cannot be taken, the address of another nullptr_t object that is an lvalue can be taken. —endnote]
