|
+====================
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+CMake supports compiling as C++98 in addition to C++11 and C++14.
|
|
|
+In order to support building on older toolchains some constructs
|
|
|
+need to be handled with care:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Use ``CM_AUTO_PTR`` instead of ``std::auto_ptr``.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The ``std::auto_ptr`` template is deprecated in C++11. We want to use it
|
|
|
+ so we can build on C++98 compilers but we do not want to turn off compiler
|
|
|
+ warnings about deprecated interfaces in general. Use the ``CM_AUTO_PTR``
|
|
|
+ macro instead.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Use ``size_t`` instead of ``std::size_t``.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Various implementations have differing implementation of ``size_t``.
|
|
|
+ When assigning the result of ``.size()`` on a container for example,
|
|
|
+ the result should be assigned to ``size_t`` not to ``std::size_t``,
|
|
|
+ ``unsigned int`` or similar types.
