I probably joined this mailing list thread a bit too late for anyone to pay attention. But I asked about this on #gcc channel and they told me that c++11 is officially supported in gcc5, but the manual is outdated. But well, that's IRC - there are no official logs containing my question, no pics, it didn't happen. I can only paste a fragment from the channel (where "jakub" is Jakub Jelínek, one of gcc maintainers): Irfy: he feels the support is still too experimental and not yet real-world tested enough krnowak: Irfy: Documentation is still saying that c++11 is experimental in gcc 5.1. Irfy: really? i thought i came across the wording "full support for c++11" in the release notes? Irfy: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/changes.html but under 'Runtime Library (libstdc++)" krnowak: Irfy: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-5.1.0/gcc/Standards.html#Standards and to go point 2.2 (C++ language). krnowak: It's probably outdated, dunno. krnowak: As it doesn't mention C++14 at all. jakub: c++11 is not experimental in gcc 5.1, indeed, that Standards section of the docs is outdated > > -- > Murray Cumming > [email protected] > www.murrayc.com > > _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
