What is your point? And what is "C++ triad"?
- repsilat 12y agoPossibly g++, clang and MSVC? Or Linux, Windows and OS X?
- pjmlp 12y agoBoth. There are lots of compilers and OS out there besides those. Which are what get discussed here most of the time.
- GFK_of_xmaspast 12y agoThere's what, Portland, Wind River, ????? I heard intel's wrapped around clang these days.
- jzwinck 12y agoHere are some: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle_Solaris_Studio http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle_Solaris_Studio http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP_aC%2B%2B http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HP_aC%2B%2B http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_XL_C%2B%2B http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_XL_C%2B%2B Notably, each of those can target an OS and hardware architecture made by the same vendor (Sun Solaris/SPARC, HP UX/PA-RISC, IBM AIX/POWER).
- pjmlp 12y agoPortland, Wind River, Intel ICC, Borland C++ Builder, Aix XL C++, HP-UX HP aC++, OS 400 XL C++, ARM DS C++, TI C++, SN Systems C++, ... Not even half of them are already full C++11 compliant.
- pjmlp 12y ago> What is your point? The point is that many of us, go to C++ because it is one of the few languages with ahead-of-time compilers available across multiple systems. Now that we are experiencing a going native wave in terms of compiler toolchains for other programming languages, that reason is slowly becoming less relevant. So many might choose another language, instead of waiting a few more years for the support to appear. > And what is "C++ triad"? gcc, clang and Visual C++. HN posts about C and C++ tend to forget there are many more C and C++ compilers out there.
