FC++ is written in Standard C++, and therefore should work with any compliant C++ compiler. Fully compliant C++ compilers are getting easier to find, but, we still maintain this page, which documents how the FC++ library works with different compilers.
If you have tried using FC++ with a compiler other than the ones listed here, please mail us with information about your experience (regardless of whether it was successful or not).
Note: all information in the table applies to the current release (v1.5) of the FC++ library. (You can see some old info here.)
| It mostly works | There are a few bugs in g++-2.95.x that we have work-arounds for.
First, bugs in the compiler prevent portions of FC++ from being put into
namespace fcpp. As a result, those portions are just
dumped into the global namespace. Second, g++ has a non-conforming
<iterator> library, which we correct for. Finally,
this version of g++ can't handle the new "lambda" extensions, so don't
#define FCPP_ENABLE_LAMBDA. The
config.h file automatically detects this compiler version
and sets up the fixes, so FC++ (sans lambda) works "out of the box"
with this compiler anyway. |

| Some works | This version of g++ has a bug with template specializations which is sometimes triggered by FC++ code. | |
| Intel C++ 7.0 (icc) | It all works | |
| Comeau C++ 4.3.0.1 | It all works | Works even with "-A --strict" |
| MSVC++ 7.1 | It mostly works | We did not have time to do thorough testing with this compiler, but the testing we did suggests it mostly works. |
