How can I add C++11 support to Code::Blocks compiler?

Question

I\'m writing some code that requires to have C++11 support for my Code::Blocks 12.11. I am using default GNU GCC Compiler came with MingW. Is there any way I can do this?

Answer 1

A simple way is to write:

-std=c++11

in the Other Options section of the compiler flags. You could do this on a per-project basis (Project -> Build Options), and/or set it as a default option in the Settings -> Compilers part.

Some projects may require -std=gnu++11 which is like C++11 but has some GNU extensions enabled.

If using g++ 4.9, you can use -std=c++14 or -std=gnu++14.
