Hi Devs-
Does anyone know what our mingw64 g++ version for the nightly builds'
support for C++11 is? There are a few bug reports of odd locking
behavior[1][2]. These seem to be when the user gets to the dynamic
ratsnest update.
So, thinking that our use of atomic might be problematic, I've adjusted
this a few times, finally going to std::async with std::futures
promises. This seems to have cleared the issue for [1] but made [2]
worse.
Both std::async and std::future have been supported on Linux gcc since
at least 4.7 but I've read in a few places [3][4] that it might not work
in mingw64. I can't seem to find a list of supported features anywhere.
Does anyone have a reference?
