<h1>C++ and C++'0x Support in Clang</h1>
<!--*************************************************************************-->
<p>Last updated: $Date$</p>
<p>Clang currently implements all of the ISO C++ 1998 standard
(including the defects addressed in the ISO C++ 2003 standard)
except for 'export' (which has been removed from the C++'0x draft)
and is considered a production-quality C++ compiler. The <a
href="http://llvm.org/bugs/">LLVM bug tracker</a> contains a Clang
C++ component that tracks known Clang C++ bugs.</p>
<h2 id="cxx0x">C++0x Implementation status</h2>
<p>Clang provides support for a number of features included in the upcoming ISO C++ Standard, C++0x. This section tracks the status of various C++0x
features, and a number of other C++0x features are under active development.</p>
<p>You can use Clang in C++0x mode either
with <a href="http://libcxx.llvm.org/">libc++</a> or with gcc's libstdc++.
libstdc++-4.4 requires <a href="libstdc++4.4-clang0x.patch">a patch</a> to work
with clang; other versions have not been tested.</p>
<!-- Within this table: The colors we're using to color-code our level
of support for a given section:
White (no background): not considered/tested.
#C11B17: Broken.
#F88017: Some useful examples work
#FDD017: Many examples work
#347C17: Nearly everything works
#00FF00 + check mark: Implementation complete!
-->
<p>The following table is used to help track our implementation
progress toward implementing the complete C++'0x standard. We use a
simple, somewhat arbitrary color-coding scheme to describe the
relative completeness of features:</p>
<table width="689" border="1" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<th>Not started/not evaluated</th>
<th>Not Applicable</th>
<th>Broken</th>
<th>Some examples work</th>
<th>Many examples work</th>
<th>Nearly everything works</th>
<th>Complete</th>
<!--
<th>Complete (with tests for each paragraph)</th>
-->
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td class="na">N/A</td>
<td class="broken"></td>
<td class="basic"></td>
<td class="medium"></td>
<td class="advanced"></td>
<td class="complete">rXXXXXX</td>
<!--
<td class="complete" align="center">&#x2713;</td>
-->
</tr>
</table>
<p>In addition, boxes marked with &#x2713 have complete and passing tests.
Similarly, boxes marked with &#x2717 have complete tests, some of which
are failing, and a <b>?</b> indicates partial tests while not making any
statement about passing status.</p>
<p>A feature is "complete" when the appropriate Clang component (Parse, AST,
Sema, CodeGen) implements the behavior described in all of the
paragraphs in the relevant C++'0x draft standard. The major
components are:</p>
<dl>
<dt>Parse</dt>
<dd>Clang is able to parse the grammar of this feature (or the grammar
described by this section), but does not necessarily do anything with the
parsed result. Use Clang's <code>-fsyntax-only</code> option to parse C++
programs.</dd>
<dt>AST</dt>
<dd>Clang builds an abstract syntax tree (AST) for the feature, but does not
necessarily perform any type-checking. Use Clang's <code>-ast-print</code>
option to print the resulting ASTs.</dd>
<dt>Sema</dt>
<dd>Clang parses and type-checks this feature and provides a well-formed AST
annotated with types. Use Clang's <code>-fsyntax-only</code> to type-check
code.</dd>
<dt>CodeGen</dt>
<dd>Clang parses, type-checks, and generates code for this feature, allowing
one to compile and execute programs.</dd>
</dl>
<p>Updates to this table are welcome! Tests for the various features are also
welcome!</p>
