Compiling issue on g++4.6.4 about cpr-example

[whoshuu]

Thanks for the report. This actually might be rectifiable without much finagling, I'll take a look at it some time this week in the library repo.

Doesn't look so doable on 4.6 compiler. The complete c++11 support was introduced in gcc from 4.7. So, i changed to 4.7 and it compiles fine.

cpr-example/build$ g++ --version
g++ (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-2ubuntu1~12.04) 4.7.3

~/Desktop/curl/cpr-example/build$ ./example 
{
    "args": {},
    "headers": {
        "Accept": "*/*",
        "Host": "httpbin.org",
        "User-Agent": "curl/7.22.0"

For the reported error above, i changed the string initialization to const std::string& content_type only. With 4.6 having experimental support, it leads to tons of other errors all over even after fixing the above one.

It could be that not many developers are using any compiler below than 4.7. Sorry for the accidental open/close button hit.

I'm gonna set up an automatic build of this example project under gcc 4.6, and have it be an allowable failure. That'll provide documented insight into the gap between this and 4.7. If I can manage that, should we close this issue?

[suvirbhargav]

yes, sounds good.
