Enable C++11 in Eclipse CDT (Juno/Kepler/Luna) indexer
c++, c++11, eclipse-cdt
Solution
Note that this question (and answer) only deals with the Eclipse indexer which is used to highlight errors before compilation takes place. The C++ compiler settings are not changed! (Thus, compilation could still fail because of missing C++11 settings, but have a look at the "Related" section)
To change the Eclipse indexer settings go to `Project properties` -> `C/C++ General` -> `Preprocessor Include Paths, Macros etc.` -> tab `Providers` -> `CDT GCC Built-in Compiler Settings`
and append `-std=c++0x` (or `-std=c++11`) to `Command to get compiler specs:`
Afterwards it should look something like:
${COMMAND} -E -P -v -dD ${INPUTS} -std=c++0x

Update
Successfully tested with Eclipse
- Kepler (CDT 8.2)
- Luna (CDT 8.4)
Problem
How do I enable support for the new C++ standard on the Eclipse CDT indexer in Juno/Kepler/Luna?
