   Hello, Kai!   
      
   Tuesday September 26 2023 23:22, from Kai Richter -> Vitaliy Aksyonov    
    VA>> My question is which C++ stnadard version may be appropriate in   
    VA>> GoldEd?   
      
   I read your question as -- what is the minimum -std=c++... I can enable in my   
   compiler that will not break any existing or future builds. And the answer is   
   GoldEd+ "supported" platforms and compilers. Have you seen the list? Have you   
   seen that (semi) automated CI/CD pipeline?   
      
   I am joking here but you will see that there are volunteers who are going to   
   produce binary packages out of master branch once your pull request is merged.   
   This will give you a clue on which platforms are still alive and what   
   compilers they use.   
      
   Optimistically, I would establish the minimum C++ standard for GoldEd+ to be   
   C++11. Though, I am not sure about Open Watcom C/C++ capabilities as I have   
   seen it in use at least for the Husky project.   
      
    KR> Well, i'm not qualified to answer that question.   
      
   At least, you can do your best effort.   
      
    VA>> If it's possible to start using C++11, code may be made much   
    VA>> safer with modern features   
      
    KR> From a user point of view i don't care much about modern or old code   
    KR> as long it is working code.   
      
   As a user, will you run DOS version of GoldEd+?   
      
    KR> From a fidonet member point of view i would like to see support for as   
    KR> many as possible hard- and software platforms.   
      
   Software platforms? saas software as a service?   
      
    KR> On the other hand old code running on old hard- and software will   
    KR> continue to work on old systems like they do now.   
      
   True. You still can download .exe files for Dos/OS2/Win32/you name it and it   
   shall/shouldbe compatible with the modern FTN software, because we have   
   established FTSC facility.   
      
   Best Regards,   
   Nil
