Description hdu@apache.org 2013-05-22 08:03:31 UTC

For AOO interacting with system provided C*+ libraries the template libraries they depend on must be binary compatible. This is best achieved by AOO employing the same STLs that the system libraries use:
- on Windows this is MSVC's TR1 implementation
- on MacOSX this is libc++ as provided by XCode4
- all others are supposed to be wrapped by boost's TR1 (e.g. glibcxx on GCC based systems)

Another benefit is that some modern compilers fail to build stlport4. It has become obsolete with the C++11 standardization that was preceded by the TR1 recommendation. Stlport5 would be an interesting alternative as it follows that standard and has interesting features. Going native is the better solution at least for now.

Comment 6 hdu@apache.org 2013-11-18 15:45:03 UTC

Adjusted the issue summary to the fact that stlport4 build is no longer used for releases since AOO 4.0.0 and it can be removed for good.
