C++11 on Amiga 68K?
« on: May 15, 2019, 03:06:03 AM »
What's the current state of GCC on the classic 68K Amiga? Are C++11 features available now?

I'm talking about stdlib classes such as std::mutex and std::thread. We've finally got those for AmigaOS 4, so I'm wondering if they're also available now on AmigaOS 3.

The runtimes for C++ are lagging behind Bebbo's NewLib implementation.  It may be awhile before C++11 is fully implemented on GCC 6.5 and 68k.
Thanks for the info. Is any of C++11's stdlib implemented? Even having just mutexes and threading would be a big win.

Hi Greg,

You should hop on over to the eab c++ forum and post your questions in there. Would get bebbo's attention. He seems quite keen and would likely prove very helpful.
I tried to register there, but got this message:

"Registration denied, this forum runs an active policy of not allowing spammers. Please contact us via the "Contact Us" page link if you believe this is in error."

There is no "Contact Us" link. Why it thinks I'm a spammer is beyond me. I even correctly entered their "I'm not a robot" captcha. Either way, I have no way to register, and no way of contacting them...

@Hans,
Try to register with another email address, I'm registered and I've no problem.
I already tried two email addresses. Same result both times.

@Hans,
I asked at EAB and they ask me to provide them :
“PM me his email addresses (and if possible the user names he tried to register with).”
I sent you a PM.
