Hi all, I would like to probe users/developers about the possibility to deprecate compiler toolchains and drop support for those.
The toolchains I have in mind are: - GCC 4.6.x - Intel Compiler version 13 - Intel Compilers with GCC 4.4.x as "base" Rationale: We see more and compile errors only happening on those toolchains as we continue to evolve our codebase towards more usage of C++11. The continuous adaption of more and more C++11 is significantly simplifying and improving our codebase. Workarounds for those compilers become necessary which are sometimes very time consuming and may even introduce slower code paths (for example unique_ptr vs. shared_ptr). Are there any objections? Does anybody absolutely rely on those toolchains?
