<p>libc++ is known to work on the following platforms, using g++-4.2 and
|
|
|
|
|
clang (lack of C++0X language support disables some functionality).</p>

<p>libc++ is still under development. It has about 85% of

|
<p>libc++ is currently dependent upon a separate library for the low-level
|
|
|
|
|
ABI compatibility with gcc. As a workaround it can be linked against
|
|
|
|
|
gcc's libstdc++.</p>
