To use C++11 features with Solaris studio, one have to use a new ABI (the g++ one by the way) which is not compatible with the legacy one.
Consequence: all C++ 3rd parties of a product must already be available compiled with the new ABI before one can start using C++11 in one's own product.
Is RFA available with this ABI? I can see no related info in the compatibility matrix.
Thanks
Compatibility matrix 2.0 lists Sun Studio 12 for RFA 8.X and 7.4+.
Only in Solaris Studio 12.4 (formerly Sun Studio) C++11 support became available.
Therefore, RFA is not available with C++11.
As the new features become available with the new API versions, the API compatibility matrix is updated. It reflects the major features, while README reflects the specifics.
Thanks for your answer.
How should we understand "sun Studio 12": As "12.0, or 12.x ? Even 12.3 is already out of support for what I know.
Does your answer mean that we'll have to wait for RFA 9.X to have a chance to get a C++11 compatible release?
Thanks
Hello Alexandre,
As a customer, I think the right approach is to submit an API enhancement request at:
All client requests will be carefully reviewed and prioritized according to demand and resource availability, you get the best chance to see your request sooner.
We expect the new features will first be released into Elektron API suite.
This I do not see on EMA plans as of now, so by submitting an enhancement request, we note that there is a client with interest in the specific feature and prioritize.
...and it seems I'm not entitled for Enhancement Requests :-s :
