> It looks like GCC is overtaking Clang as the compiler with the best C++11 support There seems to be a myth going around that Clang has or had better C++11 support. Apparently when the author did his last shootout Clang had a slight edge over GCC, but over the long run GCC has had the better support most of the time. I started using C++11 (or C++0x as it was still called) in February 2011 and at that time GCC 4.5 had significantly better support than Clang. Not to denigrate Clang's other qualities - I wanted Clang's better error messages but had to stick with GCC to get the C++0x support I needed.
