Re: Which C++ language version?

[Peter kovacs]

Oha. Learned something new. I will try this!

I think we should work in the direction of the standard guideline that is 
published by Barne Stourstupe. That will lead us to c++11.
I think that will prepare us for the future.

We move slowly anyway.

Good question.  That version is not listed here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx-status.html
Under the C++98 section it does mention that the 2003 modifications are
supported with -std=c++98 and -std=gnu++98.

That version is also not listed in the clang documentation.

I think we are depending on some GNU extensions to C++98, so our code is
not strictly C++98 compliant.  Try -std=gnu++98.  That's what I switched
to in the FreeBSD port when clang was upgraded and changed its default
C++ version from C++98 + extensions to C++14.  Some of our code is
definitely not compliant to C++14 or newer.  Our code compiles with
-std=gnu++98, and I think that -std=c++0x and -std=c++11 may work as
well.

Some of the errors with -std=c++14 are easily fixable, but not all.  I
think there are some places in the code where fixing it for -std=c++14
would break it for -std=gnu++98.

That doesn't mean that we can use all C++11 features.  We are confined
to the subset of C++0x implemented by the version of gcc in CentOS 6
(see https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/cxx0x_status.html and read the
warnings), as well as whatever is is implemented by the version of the
Windows toolchain that we use.

Don't we use C++ 2003?

Re: Which C++ language version?

[Peter kovacs]

I had to build with -std=c++11 on gcc 7.
C++98 did not work as far as I remeber.
C++17 did lead also to failure I believe.

So I think we use features from the partial support already.

At least for now, C++ 98.  The version of gcc in CentOS 6 only has
partial support for C++ 0x.

Our Windows build instructions currently recommend a 2007 version of the
compiler and libraries, which predate the 2011 standard.

These may be available via boost.

Which C++ language version?

[Patricia Shanahan]

What version of the C++ standard should we code to?

For example, can the move to STL use features that were added in C++ 11?
