Add the fact that Clang too is planning to start using C++11 (in some
limited ways) after the next release. See the lengthy discussions (which
are on-going) and the corresponding commit to LLVM's release notes.
Nothing is actually changing at this point, this is just further
spreading the plan.

Generic improvements to Clang as a whole or to its underlying infrastructure are described first, followed by language-specific sections with improvements to Clang's support for those languages. +Last release which will build as C++98 +-------------------------------------- + +This is expected to be the last release of Clang which compiles using a C++98 +toolchain. We expect to start using some C++11 features in Clang starting after +this release. That said, we are committed to supporting a reasonable set of +modern C++ toolchains as the host compiler on all of the platforms. This will +at least include Visual Studio 2012 on Windows, and Clang 3.1 or GCC 4.7.x on +Mac and Linux. The final set of compilers (and the C++11 features they support) +is not set in stone, but we wanted users of Clang to have a heads up that the +next release will involve a substantial change in the host toolchain +requirements. + +Note that this change is part of a change for the entire LLVM project, not just +Clang. + Major New Features ------------------ |
