> i'm asking about any trick or workaround puff * Build a new enough GCC for yourself * Adjust Scintilla's sources not to require features not in GCC 4.8 * If it's that simple, figure out a set of GCC 4.8 options that make it work (I'm afraid there won't be any) * Convince Scintilla's authors not to depend on C++ features not supported by your favorite version of the compiler. * Use an older version of Geany and/or Scintilla (it *might* be possible to downgrade Scintilla alone, YMMV)
I'm sorry you're frustrated, but we depend on Scintilla, and Scintilla depends on a set of C++11 features (and will even be C++17 "soon" as @elextr mentioned). We don't have enough manpower or interest in maintaining support for compilers Scintilla stopped supporting, but if you offer that yourself we'll surely consider. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
