Compiler: C2000 C++14 Support

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Hello, forum. When will the C++14 compiler be released for the C2000 series? We want to use our libraries on C2000 but C++03 ties our hands.

There are no plans to support C++14 for C28x.

John

Well... What about C++11? Can we see the current roadmap of compiler development?

We don't generally publish feature roadmaps. However for C++ support on C28x there are no plans beyond C++03 at this time. That could change based on demand but right now we don't have it on the roadmap.

But this post says otherwise.
Also why TI doesn't want to implement modern C++? Especially on C2000.

The reason for C++14 support being present in our Arm and MSP compilers but not C28x is that C28x is not byte addressable. That makes implementing support much more challenging. Currently there is not enough demand for newer C++ standards on C28x to justify that effort vs other areas. It is something that we would like to do but there are no plans for it at this time. As I mentioned before if demand increases those plans could change.

John
