# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_14([ext|noext])
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   Check for baseline language coverage in the compiler for the C++14
#   standard; if necessary, add switches to CXXFLAGS to enable support.
#   Errors out if no mode that supports C++14 baseline syntax can be found.
#   The argument, if specified, indicates whether you insist on an extended
#   mode (e.g. -std=gnu++14) or a strict conformance mode (e.g. -std=c++14).
#   If neither is specified, you get whatever works, with preference for an
#   extended mode.
#
#   Additionally, check if the standard library supports C++11.  If not,
#   try adding -stdlib=libc++ to see if that fixes it.  This is needed e.g.
#   on Mac OSX 10.8, which ships with a very old libstdc++ but a relatively
#   new libc++.
#
#   Both flags are actually added to CXX rather than CXXFLAGS to work around
#   a bug in libtool: -stdlib is stripped from CXXFLAGS when linking dynamic
#   libraries because it is not recognized.  A patch was committed to mainline
#   libtool in February 2012 but as of June 2013 there has not yet been a
#   release containing this patch.

  // GCC 4.7 introduced __float128 and makes reference to it in type_traits.
  // Clang doesn't implement it, so produces an error.  Using -std=c++11
  // instead of -std=gnu++11 works around the problem.  But on some
  // platforms we need -std=gnu++11.  So we want to make sure the test of
  // -std=gnu++11 fails only where this problem is present, and we hope that
  // -std=c++11 is always an acceptable fallback in these cases.  Complicating
  // matters, though, is that we don't want to fail here if the platform is
  // completely missing a C++11 standard library, because we want to probe that
  // in a later test.  It happens, though, that Clang allows us to check
  // whether a header exists at all before we include it.
  //
  // So, if we detect that __has_include is available (which it is on Clang),
  // and we use it to detect that <type_traits> (a C++11 header) exists, then
  // we go ahead and #include it to see if it breaks.  In all other cases, we
  // don't #include it at all.
