Problems compiling c++11

Dear all

I wanted to check out the <random> library for the upcoming simulation project, but I get an error compiling this simple program taken from the very entertaining video by Stephan T. Lavavej. I cannot get C11 to work.

Code:

---

#include <iostream>
#include <random>

int main ( ) {
        std::mt19937 mt( 1729 );
        std::uniform_int_distribution<int> dist( 0 , 99 );
        for ( int i = 1; i < 16; i++ ) {
                std::cout << dist( mt ) << " ";
        }
        std::cout << std::endl;
}

---

Here is my make file:

Code:

---

BIN = myrand

SRC = myrand.cpp
OBJ = $(SRC:src/%.cpp=obj/%.o)

CXX = g++

CXXFLAGS = -std=c++0x
CXXFLAGS += -Wall -Wextra

.PHONY: all clean run

all: $(BIN)

$(BIN): $(SRC)
        $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(SRC) -o $(BIN)

clean:
        rm -f $(BIN)
        rm -rf obj
       
run:
        touch $(SRC)
        make
        ./$(BIN)

---

Compiler version:

Code:

---

g++ (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-11)

---

Appreciate any help!

Best wishes
Serge

I suggest verifying that the Compiler you are using supports c++11
If yes; then, I suggest finding the option needed to enable support of c++11.

Edit: My guess was wrong; it has partial support.
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/cxx0x_status.html

I do NOT know whether it supports what you are trying to do; I have no idea which C++11 feature you are trying is in the URL link list I added.

I would guess that GCC 4.4 likely does NOT support c++11.

Yes Tim, just figured that out myself (after looking at the https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx0x.html ). Sorry for wasting everyone's time! Have a nice day. S

What version of RedHat/Fedora are you running?

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6 (Santiago)

That's unfortunate. RedHat tends to be very, very slow to adopt updated versions of GCC. I understand that it's for the sake of security and stability, but it can be incredibly inconvenient for developers. Your only options will probably be to put up with the limited functionality of GCC 4.4, or build your own GCC, of a newer version, from source.
