Dominic Hamon commented on MESOS-750:
-------------------------------------
There is code in the C++11 code-path for process/future.hpp that requires >=
g++-4.8 or clang to compile. This means that we need to add a check in
configure to not allow c++11 builds on older compilers with a reasonable error
message.
> Require compilers that support c++11

> Key: MESOS-750
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-750
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Benjamin Mahler
> Labels: technical_debt
> Fix For: 0.19.0
>
>
> Requiring C++11 support will provide substantial benefits to Mesos.
> Most notably, the lack of lambda support has resulted in a proliferation of
> continuation style functions scattered throughout the code. Having lambdas
> will allow us to reduce this clutter and simplify the code.
> This will require carefully documenting how to get Mesos compiling on various
> systems to make this transition easy.
