Need to enable C++11 in Codeblocks

Question

I need to enable C++11 in Codeblocks 16.

Several tutorials explain that all one needs to do is select the \"Have g++ follow the C++11 ISO C++ language standard

Answer 1

The issue is with your compiler, you can download the latest MinGW here.

Once downloaded, that should allow you to select the C++11 standard from compiler flags.

Answer 2

goto settings-> compiler ->In GNU GCC mode,-> Compiler settings-> Compiler flags -> tick the "Having the g++ follow c++ 11 ISO C++ language standard.."

Answer 3

You could always just select the -std=c++0x option, but another solution is to install more recent mingw version since the problem is obviously the compiler, not Code::Blocks

Answer 4

This is how Code::Blocks 16.1 with the newest included version of GCC (TDM-GCC 4.9.2) is supposed to look like.

You can check your GCC version with the command

gcc --version

gcc.exe is located under ./CodeBlocks/MinGW/bin

When downloading from CodeBlock's website, make sure you download codeblocks-16.01mingw-setup.exe.
