    NA> 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?   
      
    NA> I read your question as -- what is the minimum -std=c++... I can   
    NA> enable in my compiler that will not break any existing or future   
    NA> builds. And the answer is GoldEd+ "supported" platforms and compilers.   
    NA> Have you seen the list? Have you seen that (semi) automated CI/CD   
    NA> pipeline?   
      
    NA> I am joking here but you will see that there are volunteers who are   
    NA> going to produce binary packages out of master branch once your pull   
    NA> request is merged. This will give you a clue on which platforms are   
    NA> still alive and what compilers they use.   
      
    NA> Optimistically, I would establish the minimum C++ standard for GoldEd+   
    NA> to be C++11. Though, I am not sure about Open Watcom C/C++   
    NA> capabilities as I have seen it in use at least for the Husky project.   
      
   Yep. I was the author of the question. Right now I'm using gcc with -std=c++98   
   and it compiles with my changes. But I didn't add anything fancy yet. I may   
   try to setup Watcom compiler and try to build it there. I have tried to build   
   with VC 2005 under Windows XP, but I need to finish dev env setup first. I've   
   been using it long time ago and forgot a lot of stuff already. :)   
      
    KR>> Well, i'm not qualified to answer that question.   
      
    NA> At least, you can do your best effort.   
      
   That's what I'm doing. I only can't have all possible OS/compilers   
   combinations.   
      
    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   
    KR>> code as long it is working code.   
      
    NA> As a user, will you run DOS version of GoldEd+?   
      
    KR>> From a fidonet member point of view i would like to see support   
    KR>> for as many as possible hard- and software platforms.   
      
    NA> 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.   
      
    NA> True. You still can download .exe files for Dos/OS2/Win32/you name it   
    NA> and it shall/shouldbe compatible with the modern FTN software, because   
    NA> we have established FTSC facility.   
      
   Older versions can be easily build with older compliers, but would be really   
   nice to be able to build new fixes and/or features with old compilers too.   
      
   Best regards,   
   Vitaliy Aksyonov.
