[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-750) Require compilers that support c++11

["Benjamin Hindman (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Benjamin Hindman commented on MESOS-750:
----------------------------------------

We've now committed the necessary bits to compile with C++11. There is an option --with-cxx11 that can be used but defaults to false. Likely in version 0.18.0 we'll make that default be true. I'll leave this open until we complete the phase plan mentioned by [~bmahler] mentioned in an earlier comment.

> Requiring C++11 support will provide substantial benefits to Mesos.
> Most notably, the lack of lambda support has resulted in a proliferation of continuation style functions scattered throughout the code. Having lambdas will allow us to reduce this clutter and simplify the code.
> This will require carefully documenting how to get Mesos compiling on various systems to make this transition easy.
