Support for C++ compilers
Support for C++ compilers
I know CentOS7 is not the most up to date OS, but the gcc compiler support is 4.8.5 and the clang compiler support is 3.4.2. These are ancient versions. Gcc latest release is 7.3 and clang latest release is 6.0, with gcc 8.0 and clang 7.0 in the pipellines. Will CentOS7 ever be moving on to support later releases of gcc and.or clang ?
Re: Support for C++ compilers
CentOS would move, if RHEL would. It won't. Software Collections do provide a workaround.
CentOS repositories have package 'centos-release-scl-rh'. It brings in repository that has
"Software collections from the CentOS SCLo SIG (upstream scl only)" packages.
Those include gcc-7.2.1.
