7 # AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX(VERSION, [ext|noext], [mandatory|optional])
11 # Check for baseline language coverage in the compiler for the specified
12 # version of the C++ standard. If necessary, add switches to CXX and
13 # CXXCPP to enable support. VERSION may be '11' (for the C++11 standard)
14 # or '14' (for the C++14 standard).
16 # The second argument, if specified, indicates whether you insist on an
17 # extended mode (e.g. -std=gnu++11) or a strict conformance mode (e.g.
18 # -std=c++11). If neither is specified, you get whatever works, with
19 # preference for no added switch, and then for an extended mode.
21 # The third argument, if specified 'mandatory' or if left unspecified,
22 # indicates that baseline support for the specified C++ standard is
23 # required and that the macro should error out if no mode with that
24 # support is found. If specified 'optional', then configuration proceeds
25 # regardless, after defining HAVE_CXX${VERSION} if and only if a
26 # supporting mode is found.
28 # If the fourth argument is an optional CXX/CXXFLAG/CPPFLAG suffix, e.g.
29 # "_FOR_BUILD" or "_FOR_TARGET".
