is it, though ? I write daily in C++17 and have yet to find a relevant platform where a pure C89 program such as CPython would work and mine wouldn't. I mean, for hell's sake, you can target Commodore 64 and MS-DOS with the latest c++ revisions.
- x1798DE 9y agoI imagine this depends on how you define "relevant". I think a lot of companies still use AIX, and Python compiles just fine on it, but I don't think there's a compiler that supports C++17 on it.
- jcelerier 9y agoThere is GCC 4.8 at least, which is more than enough to build GCC 7 and use c++17 afterwards
