Comment on GCC 4.7.1 released

Comments

Bugs fixed in this minor bugfix release:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=RESOLVED&...

The exciting release announcement:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2012-06/msg00198.html

And more relevant to those that missed the gcc-4.7.0 release announcement, C++11 support as of 4.7:

http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx0x.html

C++11 features new to 4.7 are:

* Non-static data member initializers

* Template aliases

* Delegating constructors

* User-defined literals

* Extended friend declarations

* Explicit virtual overrides

Indeed, I was wondering why this was on the front page. It's just a point release. If you want to try gcc 4.7, just install Fedora 17.

It doesn't even have release notes yet. Can't be that big a change from 4.7.0.
