VS2010 actually does implement quite a few of C++11's features, you have to be careful though and better read the MSDN documentation for each of them. A weird case I found recently was that the VS2010 implementation of std::to_string(...) only supports long long, unsigned long long and long double. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee404875(v=vs.100).aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee404875(v=vs.100).a... Not very useful for most cases. Luckily VS2012+ supports the rest of the number types.
