GCC Default Standard Updated by 32 years!

https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/changes.html

The default mode for C is now -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu89.

I wasn't expecting that. I figured they would never change it.

On the Seeples front,

The non-standard C++0x type traits has_trivial_default_constructor, has_trivial_copy_constructor and has_trivial_copy_assign have been deprecated and will be removed in a future version. The standard C++11 traits is_trivially_default_constructible, is_trivially_copy_constructible and is_trivially_copy_assignable should be used instead.
What the fuck, Bjarn? Somehow my interest in getting an in-depth mastery of C++ has gotten even lower.

holy shit!

gnu89 was 32 years ago

Why gnu11 instead of c11?

>>4
Enables all GNU extensions.

So we're not talking about the fact that 2011-1989 is 22?

>>5
Yes but, why?
The default mode should be a clean, pure and reliable implementation of the standard.

>>7
Welcome to the GNU philosophy, infecting open-source software since 1983.

>>7
Clean, pure and reliable are strange words to describe a language built around hacks on top of uglier hacks. The standard just clarifies the order and interface to these hacks.

>>9
A language is just a standardized spec.

"built on hacks" is meaningless, because a spec is written on paper, and can't be "built on hacks".

>>8
I consider most "open source" projects to be the same or even worse in terms of quality.

Heh.

Those were deprecated and removed before C++11 was finalized, it's just that GCC kept them around because people were using them.

Lisp toad processing

Lick the lisp toad.

Why don't they add std::bin? std::oct is rarely used for fmtflags yet it exists, why highly useful std::bin does not..
