Hello, I just found the discussion on the devtoolset on SO: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15599714/risks-of-different-gcc-versions-at-link-run-time confirming my guesses. You can use any new C++11/C++14 feature and your program will link dynamically to stock libstdc++. Any feature that is not present there will be linked statically with nonshared_libstdc++.a. The only cost would be additional binary size. I checked using few features and binary growth was ignorable. But definitelly one have to take it into account. The only problem I have for now is to bring all of machines I maintain to a stable 6.6 version. Which is >1000 machines :) The cos is well worth it :) Regards, -Jarek 2016-05-20 21:16 GMT+02:00 Warren Young <wyml@xxxxxxxxxxx>: > On May 20, 2016, at 8:17 AM, Jarosław Bober <jaroslaw.bober@xxxxxxxxx> > wrote: > > > > ldd gives me: > > ldd a.out > > linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fff6e5ff000) > > libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00000039d8400000) > > In that case, I don’t see how you can be making use of any C++11/14 > features that aren’t implemented by the compiler itself (e.g. type > inference via “auto”) or purely in template form.
