With help from Nick I set up my computer to do C++11 builds with clang and gcc. You can find the jenkins builds here: http://ci.kicad-pcb.org/view/KiCad%20builds/ (look for C++11)
I'll discuss with people on IRC to see about setting up a C++11 branch to test things out. Everyone pushing for C++11 seems to hang out on there anyways. :) Jon On Thu, Jan 14, 2016 at 7:03 PM Chris Pavlina <[email protected]> wrote: > Woooow, I just linked to C11. > > Er... you can find the C++11 equivalent.
