Title: C++0x/C++11 in codeblocks (how to implement GCC)
Post by: Topdog2904 on June 28, 2012, 04:56:07 pm

Hi,

I'm wondering how to enable support for C++11 completely. I can use long long numbers, but not range based for loops.
I don't know all the techie speak, so if you ark kind enough to reply. Please make it simple :)

So far, I have established that I have an older version of GCC but have no idea how to update this. Any help would be appreciated

Andy

What platform are you on? If it's Windows, you can get an pretty up-to-date GCC implementation of GCC from TDM (certainly supports the new for-loop syntax) - I have easy to follow instructions on my blog at http://latedev.wordpress.com/2011/06/20/how-to-install-a-c-compiler-on-windows. You will then need to point C::B  at the new installation - see Settings|Compiler|Toolchain Executables.

Yeah, I am on windows (probably should have mentioned that).

Anyways, thanks for your quick reply. Had a little read of the blog post and it seems very helpful. I will have a look at it tonight and see how that goes.

Again, thanks for the help

Andy
