As an embedder of V8, we need to ensure that we have C++23-compatible builds of other dependencies (including other open source projects) before V8 makes it a hard requirement, as well as updates to tools, policies, etc. as are always needed for C++ version updates. We may need to contribute patches to other libraries for C++23 compatibility, depending on the timeline. -- James -- -- v8-dev mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-dev --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "v8-dev" group.
