I'm not sure about that. As Marc pointed out in comment 1, the C++ committee's
recommendation is to test for feature test macros being defined, not use the
non-standard __has_feature extension. So the correct way to check for C++11
attributes would be:
#if __cpp_attributes
...
#endif
If the compiler defines that macro then it means it supports the feature. This
works perfectly without needing __has_feature.
N.B. the related __has_include extension provides functionality that can't be
done with just macros, and it is now part of C++17 (see http://wg21.link/p0061)
and is supported by GCC since version 5.1, as is the __has_cpp_attribute
described by SD-6.
I see no need to add __has_feature given that it contradicts the
recommendations of the C++ committee, and that GCC already defines the
recommended feature test macros that can be used without __has_feature.
