All, Got the following error in compiling the latest version of mysql (mysql-5.6.13). I'm not sure if this is a gcc problem or a mysql problem, but it looked very standard library related, so I thought I'd point it out here.
I look at the stl_list.h file and see it is in an #if block, with #if __cplusplus >= 201103L # evaluating as false even though the version of gcc is 4.8.1. Doing a: gcc -dM -E /tmp/test.p shows __cplusplus defined as: #define __cplusplus 199711L which is clearly wrong for 4.8.1 (isn't it?) Any assistance on parsing or dealing with this error would be very much appreciated - just tried the alternate block in stl_ist.h without success.
