For non-Android platforms, the good news here is that compiling Fennec
with clang was the last major blocker for turning on C++14 support.
Do we have a timeline for when we'll be able to start using those features,
or a summary of which features we'll be able to start using? There are a few
that I've been waiting on for a long time...
Which features are you particularly eager to use? I'm on the fence as
to whether C++14 support should be turned on in 58 or wait until 59.
The biggest one is lambda capture expressions. There are a lot of places
where I've had to resort to runnable methods rather than lambdas because
I need to capture a move-only type, and it makes the code much harder to
follow.
There have been several times when I've wanted to use generic lambdas
too, though. And I suspect digit separators would make a lot of code
much easier to parse.
