<h1>C++ Support in Clang</h1>
<!--*************************************************************************-->
<p>Last updated: $Date$</p>
<p>Clang fully implements all published ISO C++ standards including <a
href="#cxx11">C++11</a>, as well as the upcoming <a
href="#cxx14">C++14</a> standard, and some parts of the fledgling <a
href="#cxx17">C++1z</a> standard,
and is considered a production-quality C++ compiler.
<p>The Clang community is continually striving to improve C++ standards
compliance between releases by submitting and tracking <a
href="cxx_dr_status.html">C++ Defect Reports</a> and implementing resolutions
as they become available.</p>
<p>Experimental work is also under way to implement <a href="#ts">C++ Technical
Specifications</a> that will help drive the future of the C++ programming
language.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://llvm.org/bugs/">LLVM bug tracker</a> contains Clang
C++ components that track known bugs with Clang's language conformance in
each language mode.</p>
<h2 id="cxx98">C++98 implementation status</h2>
<p>Clang implements all of the ISO C++ 1998 standard
(including the defects addressed in the ISO C++ 2003 standard)
except for <tt>export</tt> (which was removed in C++11).
<h2 id="cxx11">C++11 implementation status</h2>
<p>Clang 3.3 and later implement all of the <a
href="http://www.iso.org/iso/iso_catalogue/catalogue_tc/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumber=50372">ISO
C++ 2011 standard</a>. The following table describes the Clang version
in which each feature became available.</p>
<p>By default, Clang builds C++ code according to the C++98 standard, with many
C++11 features accepted as extensions. You can use Clang in C++11 mode with the
<code>-std=c++11</code> option. Clang's C++11 mode can be used
with <a href="http://libcxx.llvm.org/">libc++</a> or with gcc's libstdc++, but
patches are needed to make <a href="libstdc++4.4-clang0x.patch">libstdc++-4.4</a>
work with Clang in C++11 mode. Patches are also needed to make
<a href="libstdc++4.6-clang11.patch">libstdc++-4.6</a>
and <a href="libstdc++4.7-clang11.patch">libstdc++-4.7</a> work with Clang
releases prior to version 3.2 in C++11 mode. <tt>thread_local</tt> support
currently requires the C++ runtime library from g++-4.8 or later.</p>

C++14: Disable sized deallocation by default due to ABI breakage There are no widely deployed standard libraries providing sized deallocation functions, so we have to punt and ask the user if they want us to use sized deallocation. In the future, when such libraries are deployed, we can teach the driver to detect them and enable this feature. N3536 claimed that a weak thunk from sized to unsized deallocation could be emitted to avoid breaking backwards compatibility with standard libraries not providing sized deallocation. However, this approach and other variations don't work in practice. With the weak function approach, the thunk has to have default visibility in order to ensure that it is overridden by other DSOs providing sized deallocation. Weak, default visibility symbols are particularly expensive on MachO, so John McCall was considering disabling this feature by default on Darwin. It also changes behavior ELF linking behavior, causing certain otherwise unreferenced object files from an archive to be pulled into the link. Our second approach was to use an extern_weak function declaration and do an inline conditional branch at the deletion call site. This doesn't work because extern_weak only works on MachO if you have some archive providing the default value of the extern_weak symbol. Arranging to provide such an archive has the same challenges as providing the symbol in the standard library. Not to mention that extern_weak doesn't really work on COFF.

<span id="n3778">(6): In Clang 3.7 and later, sized deallocation is only enabled
if the user passes the <code>-fsized-deallocation</code> flag. The user must
supply definitions of the sized deallocation functions, either by providing them
explicitly or by using a C++ standard library that does. <code>libstdc++</code>
added these functions in version 5.0, and <code>libc++</code> added them in
version 3.7.

2014-06-21 04:34:03 +08:00
<p>Clang has <b>highly experimental</b> support for some proposed features of
the C++ standard following C++14,
provisionally named C++1z. The following table describes which C++1z features
have been implemented in Clang and in which Clang version they became
available.</p>
<p>Note that support for these features may change or be removed without notice,
as the draft C++1z standard evolves.</p>
<p>You can use Clang in C++1z mode with the <code>-std=c++1z</code> option.</p>
