(Sorry if this is not the right place ... or was handled before ... is there a search over mailing list somewhere ?)
I'm looking what C++11 feature I could use in my further cross platform development. For my production code there is a potpourri of VS2005 / VS2010 / gcc 4.5 / gcc 4.7 that is used for development. Some of them I would like to throw out (or even all) .... maybe I should skip to newer ones.... So I was looking around to see, what C++11 feature would be usable in what compiler version. I was spying what Qt knows about this and found the file: qcompilerdetection.h defining a lot of Q_COMPILER_XXXXX depending on the version of the compiler.... Bingo What confused me was that Q_COMPILER_RANGE_FOR is first defined for VS2015, the older ones are not setting this define. Following the discussion in this list about what compiler should be supported in what Qt version: 5.7, 5.8, ... and seeing in gerrit how many foreach are replaced by C++11 range for I hope that Q_COMPILER_RANGE_FOR should have been defined for VS2012 and up. At least this is what can be found on: http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/compiler_support https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh567368.aspx So is it an error in https://github.com/qtproject/qtbase/blob/5.7/src/corelib/global/qcompilerdetection.h#L917 ? Is the test https://github.com/qtproject/qtbase/blob/5.7/tests/auto/other/compiler/tst_compiler.cpp#L991 skipped for all VS compilers older than VS2015? Or does Qt know something about VS2012 and VS2013 that can not be found on the two sites I mentioned, so range for should not be used for these...?
